Hack to re-create the "sell beard" bug, from the EGA version

I made a hack to allow you to keep selling the Whirling Dervish's beard to Keapon Laffin like you could in the original game (it was bug). Yes there are much better/easier ways of getting money, I wasn't out to make a money hack... just provide the option of adding "some missing functionality" (a bug, that's not present in the remake :D)...

PLEASE DO NOT REPORT ANY BUGS YOU FIND WHILE USING THIS HACK!

In other words: this hack is NOT support by AGDInteractive, and is likely to cause bugs, game crashes, and corrupt saved files, so please don't report anything that goes wrong.

In order to use this hack, you have to actually have the beard... so if you don't have it yet, or have already sold it, it wont work.

Missing functionality. I love euphemisms.

Well it worked one way in the original, and a different way in the remake ;)

I'll re-word it :P

No no :| one is quiet enough... besides, this was one of those really popular ones "Results 1 - 10 of about 324,000 for quest for glory 2 sell beard"... fans can't possibly NOT know about "sell beard" bug :D I just thought it deserved a chance to live on in the remake

(PS your site's broken :|)

Hmmm, does that mean if they cracked the game, it would hack you up? :lol

To be fair, the "sell beard" bug (being able to sell the dervish beard even when you don't have a dervish beard, for an unlimited number of times -- often used to create "startup cash" without having to visit the Moneychanger) is only present in early versions of Quest for Glory 2 (including the version I originally purchased). Later versions seemed to have patched this bug.

That's absolutely right. The QFG2 which appeared on the QFG Anthology disc did not have this bug any more. But I remember a friend of mine who owned QFG2 floppy disc version many years ago had this 'sell beard bug'.
