    Let's start with the SDK 2.7 Release Notes and Addendum:

    3DO M2 V2.7 - Part 1 - Release Notes.pdf
    3DO M2 V2.7 - Part 2 - Mercury Programmer's Guide.pdf
    3DO M2 V2.7 - Part 3 - Command List Toolkit.pdf
    3DO M2 V2.7 - Part 4 - Link-Dump Programmer's Guide.pdf

    Those are all OCR'ed and render VERY slow in Acrobat Reader, and they may also contain some errors due to the OCR process. However, they should be very useful nonetheless. I have them in non-ORC'ed form as well, but as you can imagine, they are much, much larger and look more rough when printed out.

    All credits for scanning and OCR'ing go to GammaDev.

    If someone, preferably from Germany, owns the whole set of documentation and would be willing to provide me Volume 2 of it for scanning, please contact me! All other volumes are scanned already (thousands of pages!).

    //edit:
    Fixed filenames to prevent download problems.

    More to come. I even have some work-in-progress docs with handwritten corrections. Though I'm not sure if I'm allowed to make them available.

    Can anyone owning the SDK 3.0 documentation please make a quick scan or photo of the first "Contents" page of the Command List Toolkit manual? (CLT iii) I have a set of scans which I currently can't identify, because the cover sheet is missing...

    Yes, Volume 2 is still not scanned, so I'm still looking for it.

    Correct, as 3.0 was only an update and devs were supposed to have the full 2.0 docs already, which were never re-issued.

    Yep, that's the one. :)

    As for the page I'm missing, I made another thread in the M2 subforums with more exact information. Would be cool if you could help there, as that cover sheet-less thing is driving me crazy. Thanks in advance.

    If someone wants to mirror the PDFs, please do. I'm going to remove them from my server soon.

    Well, let us just say I have mirrored , since that was your request. And I am the last person who rip people off like that. So I have just mirrored, and the credits goes to the original scanners. But including credits ? well you should have said that from the start Sir :)

    Well, sorry for the confusion, but uploading something to megaupload is not what I call mirroring. ;-)

    Oh well you know, some people call it potato (short a ) other people call it potato (long a) but you and I call it kartoffel so to be as positive about as possible then to me , when I megaupload such things. Then basically I am mirroring them. Because I do not delete them without a real cause.

    Are you a premium member and will you be for any considerable amount of time. Otherwise it will likely get deleted as not that many people are going to download it on a regular base.

    hmmm well I have quite a few files that has been there for more than three months and none of them are deleted. So am I a premium member ? no I am not a premium member but they haven´t deleted any of my uploads. And if they do I will always re upload them and not all of them are downloaded regularly. And also I have a file manager where I can which files I have.

    So does this no longer exist now that all the links are dead? If anyone still has them, it would be nice if you could upload them to Internet Archive.
