Hmmm. I feel like we could try to fix the impossible 100% on some levels, but I think there's a high chance of accidentally introducing audio bugs, and it's a bit outside the scope of this patch.
Still, it would be nice to fix, I suppose.
If we know which levels are impossible to 100%, and we're willing to test it out, we could try. It would be nice for speedrunners to have a 100% category.
But, at the same time, it would be a very tedious fix if we don't already know exactly which levels require a fix. I can't remember if J1E has an automatic 100% item counts feature; if it doesn't, then that would make it even more tedious.

Yeah.
The way I see it, it's already provided, so it should probably be left in.

I have a couple of different scans of the Jazz 1 one, and a scan of the Jazz 2 one, all from posts people have made in the GOG forums.
But, GOG provide a high-quality copy of the Jazz 2 manual (without the comic), presumably provided by Epic, so I do wonder if Epic also have high-quality master copies of the comics. If so, it would presumably trounce any scan out there.

Okay.

Glad we're on the same page.
