Question about King's Quest Collection 1997 Installer

[envisge0ne]

Hello,

I used the collection installer to install KQ6. I'm running Win7 32 bit. It only installed the Win version, setup through ScummVM. I was hoping it would also install the DOS version. So I was wondering if it intentionally was setup to just install the Win version if it detects Win7.

The reason I'm trying to re-install KQ6 DOS, is because when I run the game through DOSBox, I get an error "unable to open movie file" when I try to watch the intro. It will play the intro up to the point Valanice walks up to Alexander. Then the error appears. Doing some research, this appeared to be a common error, but I never could find a sollution to the problem.

The DOS version uses a different format for the opening movie. Be sure that you have the "SEQ" folder from the CD copied to the game's installed folder.The RESOURCE.CFG should have:

Code: Select all

 videoDrv  = VGA320.DRV
 soundDrv  = GENMIDI.DRV
 audioDrv  = AUDBLAST.DRV
 joyDrv    = NO
 kbdDrv    = IBMKBD.DRV
 mouseDrv  = STDMOUSE.DRV
 memoryDrv = ARM.DRV
 minHunk   = 207k
 language  = 1
 cmd       = kq6cd
 sync      = .\
 audio     = .\
 audioSize = 8K
 cd        = no
 audio     = .\
 sync      = .\
 movieDir  = .\seq
 patchDir  = .\

Unless you want Roland sound. Then just change the soundDrv to MT32.DRV, of course.
