Re: Quest for Glory Anthology Installer

The file won't make the installer work, it's just a batch file I'd like you to run while your collection CD is in the drive, it will make a list of all the files on the collection CD so that I can release a version 1.2 of the installer that can handle both the anthology and the collection. Just down...

Re: Quest for Glory Anthology Installer

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh OK. I have the original one. Nightfall, I'd like you to run the following batch file -- you can edit it and see what it does if you like, it just does a directory listing on your E:\ drive (which I assume is your CDROM) and writes a directory.txt as the output. It will list every ...

Well, the problem with that is that you don't even know you're robbing Khaveen until you get there and see who's in bed.

Wild. There must be different versions of the anthology. Do this for me. Start up a command prompt (Start->Run and type 'cmd' without '') In that prompt, run the line: dir E:\*.ico /s /b (which should list every icon file on all subdirectories of the CD). I'm curious if your version has the icons in...

Hmmm, that's definitely a bug. Casting Reversal shouldn't allow you to walk over the water like that. We'll get that fixed. To cross the river, you need to stand up near the waterfall, on the mossy bank. Yeah, if Reversal lets you Glide, I demand to be allowed to have the Dark Master as my WIT spon...

Sorry for the vagueness, but I do remember doing that a few years ago. I don't know if it affects your overall puzzle points or not (probably does).

Re: Paladin points vs. honor points

Can I at least see paladin points in the savegame files? Also, you can only rob from four houses in the game. GAMEFAQ's new version for this game claims stealing from the Weapon Shop and/or the Guard's House (if it's even available without first stealing from the Metal Worker's House) does not lose...

Re: Warning RE: NewRisingSun's QFG4 fixes

Actually, having played through on a second character now, it seems more tied to time of night than anything else. If I fight a wraith very early in the night, I have no issues. The later on it gets, the less likely the wraith will work. I'm not sure if it's actual time of day or if it's just the ac...

Re: Please make easy combat patch !!!

As for the sprites, AGS tints them with a certain RGB-value, saturation and luminance. So you can't simply tint monster sprites to create alternatives, since the moment night started fading in, they'd look similar to their original versions again anyway. Which wouldn't actually be unrealistic :p Hu...

Re: Fighter/Thief/Mage Hybrid -> Paladin *some spoilers*

If you start QFG3 as a Wizard, you can then use your honor to convert to paladin right? Can you then do the Warrior side quest? In other words, if you are planning to play QFG3 as a paladin, is there any reason not to start as a Wizard and convert to Paladin as opposed to just starting as a Paladin...

Re: Please make easy combat patch !!!

Ghouls aren't really that nasty if you let them exhaust their mana pool first. The trick is to stay alive until they've weakened themselves. I think the only real issue is that it's hard when you lack the practice to recognize all their animations and know what's coming next. It's those first fight...
