Space Quest 4
Hello.
In Space Quest 4 in addition to the space shown in the picture below: https://i.emezeta.com/weblog/protecc...ce-quest-4.png Is there any other form of copy protection where do you need to re-use the game's instructions ? Someone played the Amiga version of this game ? Regards, UrBi |

Nope - that's it from memory. And don't play the Amiga version if you have access to the PC one... it's one of Sierra's worst Amiga ports - and that's saying something when their regular ports were pretty crappy.

Yeah - it’s an abuse to the eyeballs. Sierra spent ZERO time adapting the palette and artwork to accommodate Amiga’s 32/64 colours. They did do some ports right (see King’s Quest VI, Conquests of the Longbow), but this ain’t one of em.

Maybe this is one of those games that needs a VGA to AGA remake!

Absolutely! But I don't think anyone will do so, given that ScummVM exists. Although I'd personally like to see a "native" version of SQ4 and other games that didn't get a decent Amiga conversion - preferably to AGA.

even if i think Amiga version is not bad compared to VGA. In some points detail is very ugly, but in other not bad.
