Comments
The pic of the front cover that I uploaded looks as of it comes from a different edition of the game as the publisher is different.
My copy of Disk 2, which just contains data, has a significant scratch that I could not remove, so one of the movie files could not be copied without error. I have recreated (and uploaded) an image of Disk 2 with the offending file replaced by the corresponding one on the PC version of the disk. The two files should be the same. The movie files are in Interplay's own format, but I was able to play them under Windows with mve2avi. The faulty movie file from the Mac disk plays and looks the same as the good one from the PC disk, except that the faulty one shows widespread pixellation because of the data errors. The reconstructed image of Disk 2 was done with minimal change to the original...the only thing that is different is the replacement movie file and the size of the disk image which is a few K smaller. I cannot find a reason for the size difference, because the size and identity of all folders and files (visible and invisible) is unchanged. Anyway, the upshot is that the replacement image is as close as I could make to what the original should be.
