Re: Kings quest 2 what features will we get

There's a version of Wine for Mac, isn't there? Yep, it's called Darwine, but it doesn't work exactly the same as Wine does (i.e. some programs that run in Wine don't work in Darwine). I use it to run many Windows programs, but I haven't been able to run any AGS game yet. Dual boot is the best opti...

Re: General Quest for Glory discussions

Well, that's up to you. You could try Ebay to see if there's a cheaper deal. I'd say go for it, but I'm kind of a QFG freak and I just love every single game, but many people will tell you that QFG5 was the weakest of all the series. While it may seem it's more combat oriented, that's entirely up to...

Re: General Quest for Glory discussions

A couple of things: 1) Dragonfire is not included in the Anthology. The only thing included was the Dragonfire Soundtrack and Demo, but not the finished game. So if you only have 1 CD, you lost the soundtrack, but you never had QFG5 complete. 2) If you bought QFG5 AND the Anthology and you lost one ...

Re: Combat Spells Help?

Fighters need to drop (or better, store) their shield in order to cast spells. Wizards can cast spells if they already have them (you start the game without Force Bolt, for example.) However you can not cast projectile spells if the monster is right in front of you, you need to be one or two tiles a...

Re: Cheat Mode

If the points you are missing are Paladin Points and not score points, you can try restoring and rejecting paladinhood, that should unlock the debug mode (if you end up with 500 points, that is).

Re: QfG3 bug.

Mmh, I don't recall it exactly, but I'm pretty sure you don't need to restart. Thing is, the Laibon only accepts events one by one. So, if you get the horn, buy the gifts and dispel the leopard lady all in a single day, and then go to the Laibon, the game gets kind of screwed. You should try: 1) Put...

Re: The QfG2 Walkthrough Is Live!

Also, I see no mention to the fact that the wizard can cast Calm at the lava room in the forbidden city to momentary stop the flames, making it easier to cross. This also happened in the original version, but in AGDI's version you even get a response.

Re: QFG2VGA Restoring from different resolution

Changing resolution invalidates the save games of anything programmed with the AGS engine. AGDI can't do anything about it, unfortunately. Also, this has been brought up multiple times :) I know, that's why I found strange that I was able to restore games anyway. I wasn't implying the bug was not b...

QFG2VGA Restoring from different resolution

Not sure if this a bug, or if it belongs more to AGS than QFG2VGA, but I switched the resolution in the settings to 640x480, filter HQ 2x (or something like that) and I still was able to restore my previous games, which were saved under the normal 320 resolution. I thought this wasn't supposed to ha...

Re: *SUPER SPOILER* The biggest easter egg in the game.

Oh, OK, I just thought I'd give it a shot. I fight it with the speed all the way down but it remains too fast, specially when the pizzas fall in the same row, I can't even stand up. I'd still like to know Erpy's opinion, though. Would you say the video is clearly slow? (In terms of the optimal speed...

Again, none crashing small bugs: After Al Scurva already left, if you keep clicking the eye on the top part of the cage, it gives you the description of the beast.

Re: *SUPER SPOILER* The biggest easter egg in the game.

After failing to beat the Pizza thing many times with my fighter, I cause the Trick option instead so I could get on with the game.
Yeah. I did as well, but let's face it, it's nowhere near the satisfaction of beating the sauce out of it. Sigh.

Very small, merely aesthetical and non-crashing, but nevertheless: If you are on any street with your walk icon selected, and cast a message-triggering spell (like Zap or Reversal), then move the walk icon until it turn into an arrow and press F6, the message will appear without border. That's it. H...

OK, so I maxed out my wizard and went back to look for Mr. Pizza. It seems to me the damage I inflict is exactly the same as before (basically, zero). My 200 flame dart doesn't help either. Three days ago I was filled with excitement, now I'm filled with frustration. I understand this is an optional...

Re: Playing through all 5 on a Mac now, any compatibility hints?

IIRC, Dragonfire was designed to work on both systems, and it seems it worked well in all Mac systems all the way to Tiger. If you have Leopard, tough luck.
