Re: *Spoiler/Easter egg* Can't find the 5th elemental

You know, saying "5th elemental" in the title is still kind of a spoiler in itself...

Also, why not just post in the existing spoiler thread?

Re: Does anyone have a QFG3 Paladin Export?

You know, you can import a character straight from QfG1 or QfG2 straight to QfG4 (albeit not with 300 in your stats), right?

Re: QFG4 editor?

Never had a problem with raising Vitality... just run everywhere and do stuff until it hurts. Don't rest or restore your Stamina unless you really need to.

I think the point is they are trying to see how much you can get away with and still beat the game.

Actually, Swimming can be maxed much faster if you can't breathe water, as then it goes up just by being in the water. Just remember to pack some Stamina Pills, hang out by the ladder off the docks, and come up for air when you turn blue (you can safely read or something and just glance at the scree...

Re: Does Quest for Glory 5 Suck?

I'm assuming it's safe to Magnet from Villages and other unique scenes then?

Also, NEVER save your game on the overworld map. I found that out the very hard way (and was barely able to get my character to restore after a number of retries each time I continued playing).

Re: QFG5 Chief Thief help? (many spoilers)

On a slightly related note, I always wondered what Elsa's class was anyway. As far as I can tell, she's a Fighter hybrid with some Thief skill(s). Which ones, I don't know. Probably not Pick Locks, since she always leaves that job to the Hero in QfGV. Also, Magnum Opus seems to have acrobatics, and ...

Re: KQ Rereleases

I would assume it would go something like this: QfG2 1.1 (done) KQ1 4.0(?) QfG2 1.2 (probably not) KQ2 (whatever version is next) QfG2 2.0 (fixing the "final" bugs that are reported over the next few months) These things take time I would imagine, so remember when they say it will be done:...

I think it was mentioned that they needed to order at least 1000 in order for the printer to take the job, so there should be around that many for Al Emmo orders (minus the prize giveaways and such).

Re: Bargain and apothecary (spoilers!)

I don't know if it's explicitly stated anywhere, but in order to get something for free (at the right time and after you've told them about the appropriate topic), you have to go through the buy interface and offer 0 Dinars/Centimes for it.

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 :)

Even if they had the old code, they dumped all the programmers who used to know its ins and outs and little tricks, and they probably wouldn't want to bother having someone new decipher it.
