Re: Space Quest II is available to download!

I'm in the escape pod: remaining five seconds before the ship's destruction. I try to talk to the door from the escape door. Game crashes with following message: in "Game_functions.asc", line 414 from "globalScript.asc", line 81 Error: DisplaySpeech: speech was already displayed ...

Re: Space Quest II is available to download!

I'm using Windows XP sp3 (32bits) and DirectX 9.0c I got a crash when there was one minute left before some countdown would reach 0. I think I had reached the East end of some corridor, so that might be the cause. The computer voice was saying something like "last chance to press the red button...

Re: Space Quest II is available to download!

If you turn off the computer after having entered the command, the computer and the machine will still work. It's fun that I was able to turn off the switch without ever leaving the keyboard.

Re: Space Quest II is available to download!

This one isn't gamebreaking, but really annoying. If you enter a room with a red button and immediatly exit the screen, its music will keep sounding.

Re: Space Quest II is available to download!

The bug in "System_Functions" seems to happen randomly, but it's the second time it happened just after restoring a previously saved game and clicking on a hotspot/inventory item.

I have OCD and if I made an account in the IA forums I wouldn't resist reading every single post before posting, and I'm always so busy that I'm afraid of doing so. However, as I've already read every post in the AGDI boards, they're no longer a concern for me. :p I'm only reporting critical bugs an...

When I'm surrounded by darkness for the second time in the game, it looks like I can save the game using the options menu, but I can't use the hotkeys F5 or F7.

Re: Space Quest II is available to download!

I was in the area where I'm asked for a password. I clicked so that Roger would walk to the hotspot where he can introduce it, but rather than going straight, he took a deviation so that he could walk through air before entering the password. As soon as he reached the hotspot, game crashed with the ...

Here's a bug that destroys the game.

It just happens that those steps are enough fo...

Re: Space Quest II is available to download!

This game is of the same substance dreams are made of. I haven't go beyond the first screens because it simply has too many things to interact with and so many great jokes that I'm constantly reloading to see which things I could have missed. I'm not telling anything because I don't want to spoil th...

Re: Combat is *way* too hard

You can lower the combat difficulty and activate the combat assistant to aid you somewhat in the battles. Sorry if the combat system is not of your liking, but hey, good to know you can still play the original and it's acceptable if you prefer it over this version.

Re: What would I need to pitch this idea?

The last one of such games was called "The Act" and has a vastly different gameplay style, but was never released. Even though they're my favorite games, I don't suggest you to undertake such a task without a whole lot of experience in the animation industry, as the slightest delay during ...

You can't call your saurus unless you set the difficulty bar to the lowest level. It's on the options tab.

Re: casting spells in combat

Hitting monster with spells/rocks before combat almost requires you to slide the game speed all the way down in the options menu. During combat, you cast spells pressing some keys in your keyboard. The game manual tells you which key belongs to each spell. Plus, you can't cast spells if you are carr...

Re: communication and bargaining

I remember some cheat flags don't activate until you leave and return to a room. That could be the case, and could also be that some items have a minimum price that I don't know of. Anyways, you can get up to 250 communication by wishing the genie for it, but as that event happens at the end of the ...

Buy a cable, then plug one side on the audio port and the other end on the microphone port, then you can use any audio recording program to record all the sound from your system into a file. :p
