Space Quest 4????

22 October 2002, 18:30

It appears to be running in 16 or 32 color. Ive tried everything, is it supposed to be like this? It runs 256 on IBM compatibles.

yes, sierra didn't make any aga versions of their games (only the last kings quest, wich sierra didn't make)

Thats dissapointing, considering these game dont run in XP.

I have it on CD for DOS and Win3.1. Seems like their 16/32 color version as well but with large problems getting from the first part as controls freezes.

I can play sierra games on xp without any problems, just play them on 256 color and win95 comp mode.

Well yeah, sorta... Some of the games wont initialize the sound drivers, like QG1Remake. Or if it does, only the music and not the digital efects.

sometimes it's better when the music is off, sierra haven't made much cool tunes

The music did add alot to the mood though, especially in the QFG series.

yes, it's kind off sad playing games without the mood from music
