If I recall correctly, downloading copyrighted material is legal if you already legally own the copyrighted material in question.

Since JJ2 doesn't work with licenses, that seems highly unlikely to me

I have an original LK Avalon TSF copy

the big carton box didn't survive though and I lost the manual somewhere :(

I got CC99 for $1 at Microcenter in a bargain bin. I already had JJ2, but I lost the game (sorry) and thought CC99 had the complete game. I later found the regular game which had fallen behind the desk.

Okay, this story has a long version and a short version, here's the long version...

My older Brother used to play the Shareware Episode of Jazz 1 to death. Soon(I don't know exactly how, but I assume my parents bought it), we got Jazz 2, I don't know when we got it, but it was some time around release, so our copy was pretty rare, then we got Jazz Advanced, which we lost a few years later. Then we lost the box and disc for original JJ2 around 10 years ago, then we aquired a new copy(I think), but we lost that too.
Then, around 2-3 years ago, I found Amazon.de, and bought JJ2:TSF. Now, I've got a question, does anyone know how to make LK Avalon TSF compatible with JJ2+? Don't say download a different version, and don't tell me it's complicated, I'm up for complicated methods. Oh, and if it requires a Hex Editor, please tell me where I can get one.

So, that's the long, and strange story of how I have JJ2:TSF and not the original any more. I know for a fact that my copy of the original JJ2 is long gone, same with Jazz Advanced.

Oh, and the short version:

I used to own JJ2 1.20/1.21/1.22/1.23(I'm not sure which), but I lost it.

I used to own Jazz Advanced, but I lost it.

Right now, I own JJ2:TSF(LK Avalon :()

This thread ends up being about passworded .j2l files, but it does include the names of several hex editors, which you can then find using a search engine.

Thanks, but how do I use them to make JJ2:TSF LK Avalon work with Plus?
