Two bugs i found.

#1 Post by Just a guest » Sun Dec 15, 2002 6:24 pm

While playing through the game I found two bugs.<br>(hopefully no dupes of others posted)<br><br>1) Opening the load/save menu in the same moment you exit a screen will cause all buttons in the menu to be shaded (so you can't press them). Since it'll also cause the game to pause you'll find yourself in a position where forced program termination is the only way out.<br><br>2) The two lion statues riddle in the end can be completed by pressing a lower number of elements than all 4, and then exiting from the door screen. <p></p><i></i>

1) Were you pressing F5 to bring up the save menu directly, or did you click on the pop-up bar to access the Options screen and then press the save button?<br><br>2) I can't reproduce this. Is there a list of exact steps you must take in order for it to happen? <p></p><i></i>

First one: I meant the options screen rather than the save menu (although I wasn't very clear). I use the drop-down menu in top of the screen and press the options icon. When the options menu appear Graham takes another step causing him to walk out of the screen, which makes all buttons in the options menu shaded. It requires really good timing, but somehow I managed to do it without intending to.<br><br>Second: Come to think of it, I solved that puzzle before finding an exit from the island. Then I found the exit to the island and went back to the door. I have actually solved the puzzle, so I guess the bug is more that the game claims that the door is locked if i click it with the hand icon. Not really much of a bug anymore. <p></p><i></i>

Yes, it is a bug. I found the exit from the realm before I talked to the lions, and I only have to<br>1. Click the hand on the cloud and<br>2. Exit the screen (click the hand on the background)<br>to open the door.<br><br>Note that this will only happen if the portal on the small island is activated.<br><br>Amazing game, by the way. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>---<br>Harald<br><br>Please visit <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://welcometosuckysoft.tripod.com">welcometosuckysoft.tripod.com</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> ! <p></p><i></i>

I just tried this and could not get the bug to occur.<br><br>Could you give me an exact sequence of actions that will make the bug happen every time (starting from the moment you arrive on the island after riding the gold fish)? Thanks. <p></p><i></i>

Hi,<br>I've found out how to make the bug appear:<br>If you enter the code once (without fixing the portal to Hagatha's cave yet) you will get a message about finding means of escape.<br><br>Look at the door again, and press only the cloud. Click the hand on the door to leave the screen.<br>The door will open.<br><br>It seems like this 'cheat' only works if you have already completed the code puzzle once. That doesn't make sense, because according to my memory (and my previous post) I never figured the code out. But I was still able to enter the tower. And the portal <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>was</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> activated.<br><br>In any case, this is <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>one</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> way to make the bug occur. <p>Please visit Suckysoft, <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://welcometosuckysoft.tripod.com">welcometosuckysoft.tripod.com</a><!--EZCODE LINK END-->!</p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub57.ezboard.com/broyalquestfor ... raldg88</A> at: 3/4/03 8:34:39 pm<br></i>

Thanks, found it and fixed it. Hopefully, I've also fixed it for other methods of replicating the bug too. <p></p><i></i>

Okay, does that mean we have to re-download the game again or will a patch be available later? <p>Please visit Suckysoft, <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://welcometosuckysoft.tripod.com">welcometosuckysoft.tripod.com</a><!--EZCODE LINK END-->!</p><i></i>

The next downloadable version will be KQ2VGA v2.0, which we hope to release soon. <br><br>Version 2.0 will not be made available as a patch this time, but rather will be a full download, since it contains various other bug fixes, improvments and features. <p></p><i></i>
