I am just checking to see if there is any progress going on. Please let me know.

Yes, a few more keys were pushed today!

But then I got sidetracked while drinking a caffeinated beverage and watching some guy shave his cat on youtube.

Process is a very SLOW process. Guess we'll have to wait until 2010 just like I thought. When I was 20, I didn't realize this was such a difficult task.

If you thought that game was hard why don't you remake The Colonel's Bequest. No wait there are already several remakes of that particular game already being developed.

Anyone doing Police Quest II? That is my all time favorite in the police quest series.

Until next time stay cool.

I think you mean progress instead of process.

Besides, we have a progress update thread posted here where we regularly mention things we're working on at the moment. You should check that one out.

p.s: Anyone REALLY interested in us dropping QFG2 and starting afresh with a new project?

Progress is process, and for game-making it is loooonnng, especially with this one. Take heart in knowing that once it IS released it will be a brilliant masterpiece of gaming.

That's a wonderful idea!! Thanks Shalkar!!
Yeah, drop everything with QfG2 and start work on Bequest!! That will make a lot of people VERY happy! :p

(PS Shalkar, I'm pretty sure Bequest will be a little kitten compared to QfG2!)

You know, that's a GREAT idea! Drop QFG2 and start on Bequest. I hear Jodo Kast has a good lead on that one.

LOL. Comeon now. Lets not be hasty. I've ran my mouth one too many times. Lets finish Quest for Glory II then move onto another project.

Please tell me you just messing with me? I know you guys like hearing from me once in a while or else you wouldn't joke. LOL.

I am really looking foward to this one.

Besides I was really aiming toward Police Quest II. But whatever fan project you guys wanna do next is up to you.

What about Conquest of Camelot or Codename ICEMAN

GOLDRUSH??? lol What fun....

Stay cool. :hat

Stay cool.

How about... an entirely new COMMERICAL game from Himalaya studioes?

A sequal to Al Emmo or an entirely new game... starting a new series.

Come on, if Himalaya studios is going to be the new Sierra then at least two objectives need to be met. 1: They need the time and resources to devote to new adventure games instead of remaking old ones, and 2: They need us to buy their games and support them, both financially and in every other way.

Who's with me on this?

Till next time stay cool :smokin

Kurdt · #211 Post by **Kurdt** » Tue Oct 30, 2007 4:36 am

I am, but can they please finish QFG2 first? I mean, it's about as buggy as QFG4 was right now. That means they're almost done.

Plus, once it's done, that means AGDI's finally fulfilled the original mission statement. They got together to remake KQ1, do Royal Quest, remake KQ2, and remake QFG2. They remade KQ1, canceled Royal Quest (obviously), and remade KQ2. One more remake and the saga is complete. There's something to be said about that.

Paladinlover · #212 Post by **Paladinlover** » Tue Oct 30, 2007 4:43 am

Look on the bright side, Kurt. With the exception of Error 52, most of the bugs in QFG 4 are actually forgiveable and just require some minor tweaking (and with DosBox out, that task is a sinch).

Plus it will be out shortly. I know I've been saying this for the past 5 years (and nearly every year around April/March I say 'this summer I know it'

) if the game is just in bug bashing phase (or whatever you want to call it that) then why fear it not coming out or losing patience? When was the last time you saw a contruction of a building stop just short of completion or an athlete running an ironman triathalon and just stopping just a few minutes of the finishing line?

It will happen. For me, I can say that I'm proud to have helped out, at least somewhat, for the AGDs in getting the game done faster. According to Erpy, the beta version of SCI studio that I gave (the only one that I know of that can open QFG 2 and see (but not modify) the views, scenes, and texts of the game) took a year of production time. Whether that's true or not, I'm glad I helped.

Till next time stay cool :smokin

Kurdt · #213 Post by **Kurdt** » Sat Nov 03, 2007 11:52 pm

I'm just joking around, PL (hence the

). Obviously they wouldn't stop work on QFG2 since it's so close to completion. That would be ridiculous of them. We were all just joking about how they should stop QFG2's production now and work on other stuff and so I thought I'd be the counter on that.

if it's not released today I'm never coming back and you can tell your mom I said so too!

You know if there has ben a bigger Sierra fan groups than AGDI who wants to recreate a old forgotten game by Sierra team maybe you would have a brand new recreated game now but AGDI team is a small fan group who are doing as best they as they can to recreate their games to perfections. So that is why progress from them are very slow.

I always wonder why in the whole world why nobody else are trying to recreate the rest of those Sierra games. Well maybe not much people are that computer genious and brainwashed to do those works. Well if there was a bigger group now like infamous Adventurers. You would not be waiting so long after next games. With more and bigger fan groups who can remake the rest of those treasures games from Sierra you would not be waiting so long after the next games. But I know making a brand new game even remaking the old games takes a lot of times and energy.

But as you know the AGDI team (the former Santa Claus elfs workers) will never be the owner of Quest for glory 2 and on other remakes. So they are still working on their project for nothing. Well they will gain a lot of new fans but they can't live for fans only. They need food and drinks to life on. So they must work on other jobs to gain money so they

...hey where is everybody?

Ah not again! Ok I shall stop this boring comment then.

(Sorry if there is a spelling error there)

Fribbi. Check this thread out.

You'll find quite a bit. I know I sure did!

Shalkar · #218 Post by **Shalkar** » Mon Nov 19, 2007 3:43 am

I figured this out. The reason why Quest for Glory II is taking this long is because its not because of the scripting of the game. Making each character play their part but to include but not limited to a nice pretty speech pack. Roughly around 400-600MB of high quality speech. Everyone plays their part. YAY! Oh god please bless me with this.

It would be awesome just like Quest for Glory 4 Shadows of Darkness. :D

Until next time stay cool folks. :hat

Paladinlover · #219 Post by **Paladinlover** » Mon Nov 19, 2007 5:44 am

Though I'd like to think that, Shalker, but I think that a full voice for QFG 2 would be way, way too much work for the AGDs.

Till next time stay cool

Shalkar · #220 Post by **Shalkar** » Mon Nov 19, 2007 7:08 am

Yea yea yea. Comeon Paladinlover you ruin all the fun. $:\$ Comeon now there has to be something good comning out of all of this

Until next time stay cool folks. :hat

Plus it would be VERY wierd if QFG2 had voice, when QFG1 and QFG3 do not.

DonQuixote · #222 Post by **DonQuixote** » Tue Nov 20, 2007 1:08 am

Speech for QG2 would be odd, especially considering just how many characters there and the team would have to hunt down voice actors from QG5

Rakeesh, Erasmus, Fenris, Ugarte, Ferrari, Nawar, Budar...

I was very impressed with Josh Mandel doing work in the KQ1 & 2 remakes though. If the AGDI team did voice acting for this game, it would be interesting to see who many original voices could be found and how many would be interested in a little work.

Hmmm... I heard a rumor that AGDi is implementing the new AI-plug from Chris. Characters will decide themselves what to say, how to say it, etc.

Ok... that wasn't very convincing was it? :lol

When will QFG II Trial by Fire VGA + final be done?

DROP QG2 You insane :)

Speech Pack!
