Space Quest 4 GOG Version problems.
The GOG Version of this game runs using DOSBox. I'm not getting 3 points for changing clothes in Sacks store. Roger Wilco is using women's clothes and when he puts his normal clothes back i'm not getting 3 points. In Astro Chicken arcade game Cedric from King's Quest 5 won't appear. These two problems can be fixed by playing the game using ScummVM. Can i fix these problems playing in DOSBox? One more thing. When i run Space Quest 4 GOG Version in ScummVM i don't have the voices (speech). Is it possible to fix these problems? Thanks.

Re: Space Quest 4 GOG Version problems.
The missing 3 points is a bug in the game. DOSBox is a DOS emulator and will play any game "as is" so any in-game bugs will still be there. ScummVM works only on games that it recognizes, but the upside is that the developers programmed it to fix bugs like this. I'm not sure why ScummVM won't play speech though. As far as I know, it should.
The only way that I know of to fix the 3-point bug is to patch the game. There is some information on the patches here. The "NewRisingSun" patch combines the CD and floppy versions, fixing bugs and restoring lost content, like "Radio Shock" being replaced for legal reasons.
