Re: QFG Hex edit

You don't need to lower your honor to avoid becoming a paladin. I tried to become a Paladin and raised my honor to 300 (by giving tons of meat to certain person) and I failed. I think it has something to do with not knowing I had to click the mouth on the hero for him to speak, so if you avoid doing...

Re: A little disappointed.

Some other people in the forums wanted to see more of the Father in this game, too. But it looks like King's Quest III doesn't offer much room for the Father to shine, given that most of the story happens outside of Daventry. There's also people that wrote reviews of the game saying that the Father ...

Re: Weird speed glitch

You can change the speed of the game in the options menu, there's also a slider to change combat difficulty. However, changing the slider also affects the time you have available for timed events, so be careful.

There are no voices. QFG2 had too much text and too many actors to be feasible.

Re: Throwing rocks at the air elemental

I recall that what was taken out of the remake was throwing sand to the elemental, and it was an intentional change which sadly makes picking sand as useless as in the real life. :p

Re: Where can I get QFG1 VGA

Unfortunately, Quest for Glory 1 is not free and you have to buy it from a vendor that still has it in stock, but they are so old they are hard to find. The best option is to buy a CD that has all the QFG titles, such as QFG Anthologies.

I reported a simmilar issue with direct3d and my old ATI graphics cards. Unfortunately, they were unable to solve the problem as it was an AGS bug. Try to configure your graphic card to set full quality and test if this fixes the square issue, as it's most likely a surface rounding error and low qua...

Re: Buying Al Emmo.....

I think if you buy the CD version and contact HimalayaStudios, they can give you a key for the digital download version, which is a more recent version of the engine, has some extra polish, and a whole lot of bugs fixed. Apart from that, the CD version will work as long as you have a CD drive and yo...

Re: A request to AGD to help influence indie gamers to make

I think AGDI stated time ago that they can't afford to make full and long games like the remake of QFG2VGA for a price as low as the usual prices in BigFish Games, but that they would like to do some small and casual titles that could be sold in sites like that one. They can't sell their remakes any...

I remember there was a dead end in that specific spot, but only for the very first release of King's Quest 2. You can check your current version by going to the option menu (where you can adjust game speed) and press the '?' button. If it says a version other than 1.0 then the game should still be w...

Re: bugs still there?

1. You need to steal the money from the robbers. For that, you have to find their secret hideout.
2. You need to click on the books again. In KQ3 v1.1, you can also click on the trapdoor.

The instructions on importing your hero appear on Page 3 of the PDF game manual included with QFG2VGA. Just copy your .sav file with your hero from Spielburg into the folder where QFG2VGA is installed (usually C:\Program Files\AGD Interactive\Quest for Glory II\).
