Re: Started a high-res re-texturing project of GK3

This is maybe standard stuff for some people, but a casual windows user won't realize this. This is where, I think, an installer package might be helpful when this texture upgrade is going to be found by a much larger group of people. This type of question would pop-up all the time on the GoG or St...

Re: Started a high-res re-texturing project of GK3

I managed to solve the issue on why the textures don't load on my computer. The gk3.ini file, if you create it with the standard text editor in Windows, actually defaults it into gk3.ini.txt. Had to use a DOS prompt to rename that properly...there are probably easier ways, but still a very typical ...

Re: QfG5 patch 1.2?

Not that I know of. My repackaging of the 1.2 patch does copy a VERSION file to the game's folder, but that is not official. It is just to indicate that the patch has been installed for diagnostic purposes.

Re: Let's Play Sierra Games - Conquest of Camelot.

Is there a release of King's Quest 1 that is CGA specific only? No. It was machine dependent. If the machine was CGA the game would have used "CGA_GRAF.OVL". If EGA, "EGA_GRAF.OVL". if PCjr, "JR_GRAF.OVL". Some of the early booter allowed switching between composite co...

Re: Let's Play Sierra Games - Conquest of Camelot.

King's Quest 1 EGA (but it was like 4 colors and boot from a disk) and LSL1 EGA. 4 color would be CGA, not EGA. Also there was an EGA variant of LSL1SCI, so distinguishing between AGI and SCI is better to use those terms to avoid confusion. The exception would be HQ/QfG1EGA and QfG1VGA (SCI0.1 vs S...

Re: QfG5 patch 1.2?

I designed the original QfG GOG package, but I have no idea about the Steam version. That patch looks for the original Registry entries to locate the game. I don't know how Steam has done its configuration. The GOG release is more of a stand alone version and works out of the box.

Leland Sklar's fantastic bass line from "Doctor My Eyes". He is using the same bass he originally used to create the track.

Re: Started a high-res re-texturing project of GK3

I redid the art pieces with actual images from the paintings rather than the upscaled and smoothed versions. Original: R23ARTWOMAN.jpg HiRez pack: R23ARTWOMANHiRez.jpg New: R23ARTWOMANNew.jpg In game they are a bit too bright, so I'll have to adjust them. There are a few that BBP tracked down that h...

Re: Started a high-res re-texturing project of GK3

Yeah, I do not have the time to do any play testing, just wanted to be sure the pack was displaying OK.
