I wanted to post this here by way of an update and ask whether the hero actually touched the goblins when he attacked them. In my faint memory, I think he didn't visually touch them, but I can't be sure yet. I'm content to copy the fight mechanics to the letter for now, but I thought maybe of workin...

Thanks a lot, guys. Sorry, I haven't been checking the boards lately. I actually have a really good update coming up which will include a LOT of other screens, including ALL of Spielberg. I'm just working on the fight screen now (which will at first play just like the VGA version but will be the fir...

"furthermore, I wouldn't have thought you, of all people would be in much of a position to suggest immaturity on these forums."

Huh?

If you're as young as you sound, kid, you won't have to worry about Alzheimer's. Of the neurological disorders, it's the one we seem to be closest to actually curing (or drastically slowing down as opposed to treating symptoms). I feel the way you do about the people in the old Sierra boards from ba...

I have my own 2.5D remake of Quest for Glory I. I haven't updated the online build for exactly one year now, but I spent the last 10 days or so working on it. I have all the screens for the town, and you can go all the way to Baba Yaga's, now. If somebody could animate the hero's battle movements, I...

The quote is "all of the worlds are yours except Europa" (as in Jupiter's moon).

Happy New Year's, everyone.

UnknownHero and a guy named Ilias have recently offered to help me with models for Quest for Glory, which I was only too happy to accept. So I'm working on several different games at the moment (including finishing the ones already online) but as soon as I have something new from either of them (lik...

I agree, I will finish it one day. But I may as well finish the web site first.

I'll finish it one day. But I got so little encouragement from the few people who should want this that I went on to do other things (all very original game ideas--NOT--and none finished yet). Street Fighter was a joke for my sister-in-law, and Rogue Squadron is just a game I really love: Removed th...

Thanks a whole lot, pal, that's nice to read. Especially from you.

I wasn't insulted, really, just annoyed at how many people write these things, especially here of all places. I will see this through because it's fun for me, but I'd rather get a lot more support from the only group of people left who even know about this game. I have every intention of making many...

And I think if you're going to spend the time and effort to write a post about someone's project, you should make it original (it's not like I've read this a few dozen times by now). But in response, I usually write two things: I love Quest for Glory and would like my son to enjoy it as much as I di...

Did the other versions run on this computer? Because it's not like I changed compilers, and although I can (via OpenGL), I'm not making any direct calls to the video hardware.

I hope nobody minds my posting here to attract more attention, but if so, you can always delete this. Anyway, I released an update to my Quest for Glory I 2.5D preview which features several improvements, such as the character sheet, sleeping, and throwing (as yet invisible) rocks. Plus, two screens...

You tried it too soon. I had to move my file into mediafire's server again (but at least the web site looks prettier), but I'll make it downloadable via my web site later tonight. Get better, pal. EDIT: Just so anyone doesn't misunderstand, the preview is downloadable now, it's just that from my web...

Hey, everyone (and by "everyone" I must mean "Dr. Jones!"), the new release is here at last. Too many behind-the-scenes changes happened, but there's one's share of visible ones too, including the twice-promised saved games. Unfortunately the centaur isn't finished yet, so he won...

Thanks for responding. From what I gather, it only matters if the voice is realistic. Since I'm making this game multi-platform, I can't count on any one voice and I was going to use a Java-based synthesizer with its own voice. Maybe I'll add it later, on a future release, especially if I figure out...

I'm about to release a better and much more complete version (although most of it is behind-the-scenes engine stuff that players won't get to see on this release). But among other things, the saved game to Erana's as well as the centaur's screen will be included, and the hero will get to rest and th...

I see. And here I was buying Dr. Jones's explanation that the reason KQ1 went into Program Files had something to do with 64-bit .Net (which I'm not even sure exists yet). Thanks for the response.

Thanks a lot, AGDs, for another improvement. It should be great.

Even though King's Quest I went into my Program Files. What gives?

I was going to warn people that I had written the dialog tree, not a text box, but it was 6 am when I finished packaging the thing and forgot. So, be warned: the text splits after every 35th character regardless of where it is! Obviously I'll wok on that later, but it's not exactly my biggest priori...

Thanks for the support, 123...0. Link is up again. Dialog tree was a little harder than I expected, but alas it is done. I didn't do the save file to Erana's yet, though. http://66.160.166.159

I'm going to take the download link down until hopefully just later tonight, at which point I hope to deliver a preview which includes the dialog tree implementation (with all of the sheriff's lines), two more screens (one of which a saved game at Erana's Peace) and the finished cursors for "lo...

Thanks for the offer of a mirror, but I'm not getting nearly enough traffic to warrant a mirror. If the offer is still up by the time I'm finished with either the full game or at least a more advanced preview, then I may just take you up on it.
