KQ VGA versions for DOS anyhow?

#1 Post by Contortionist » Mon Apr 23, 2007 5:11 pm

I have a smarphone and smartdos installed, so I can launch the old dos games and play them on it :) However, there is only windows mobile programm for pocket pc's and it supports only certain .exe's, I can't launch KQ VGA through it. But I remember there was QFG VGA version which was run through dos and it works great for me. Any way of getting dos versions of KQ VGA games?

The only DOS VGA KQ games are KQ5 KQ6 and KQ7.

What are you asking?

Are you having problems with certain Sierra DOS based, or, what?

You say you have a DOS QFGVGA that works fine.
So it is either QFG1VGA, QFG3, or SHADOWS.

You can't get a KQVGA to work, or AGDI's KQ to work?
Explain more and maybe some of us could solve your problems.

I immediately thought he was asking if AGDI's remakes are available in a DOS version; if so, no. The engines used to make the two remakes is made to work only with Windows.

How do I connect a speaker to my Xbox 360 HD VGA Cable? I'm getting a new monitor, but I have no idea how to get the sound. I know the Xbox 360 HD VGA cable comes with those red and white connectors. How do I connect those so that I can listen to the sound, aka connect them to some sort of sound output? Please let me know! Thanks!

To connect those cables, you need an amplifier/box for them with HDMI ports. Where do your speakers normally go to? Your PC? Most PC speakers (at least cheap ones) aren't really compatible with the same RCA or HDMI jacks on TV systems or other amps; they just plug into the back of your computer.
