In Space No One Can Hear You Clean, er, Scream. But if you post in this forum about Space Quest - someone's sure to hear you. I think. Try it, anyway!

New Space Quest Collection Patch

The new version of my DOSBox patch for the new Space Quest collection is out. As with the latest King's Quest collection, the new path for DOSBox should be "C:\Program Files\DOSBox" so all new versions of DOSBox can be installed without need of a new patch for the collection. I have added a ScummVM shortcut for SQ2. The included manual for the collection does not have SQ6, so the patch has a PDF of this manual. Be sure to checkout the new High Rez icons that I have created for the games.

New Space Quest DOSBox update

Note: you will want to install DOSBox 0.72 to fix the SoundBlaster error with SQ6. You will need to install ScummVM 0.10.0 in "C:\Program Files\ScummVM" to use the ScummVM shortcut for SQ2.

So there's a new DOSBox out - again?

Just check and nope! So wait - you did a new patch to make these games work with the newest DOSBox (wait, didn't you do this already?)

lol - blame smoke for my brain shorting out... the san diego fires are clearly getting to me now...

and why did you do Scum for Sq2? Why not DOSBox?

I have both shortcuts for SQ2. ScummVM has some advantages over DOSBox for AGI games. It also add mouse support to AGI games.
