Good and quick job!!!

I think a link to iteupd1.exe should be fit in the page though (and for historical reasons the third too, even if its not needed for SVM)

I am reviving this old thread because I realised that the official website of ItE has removed all the updates. (iteupd1.exe and iteupd2.exe as I am aware; dunno if there is iteupd3??) The wiki ItE page links to iteupd2.exe and can't be downloaded. I have looked online for backups but there isn't one...

In SVM this change doesn't happen seamlessly because the cues don't fade in and out; instead, as I walk around, the cues are like stopping and starting suddenly, without blending. I noticed it generally in the game. When I originally played it years ago, the ambient music cues looped over and over ...

Last time I played The Dig was around 10 years ago or more, and that was in DOS or DOSBox. Now I am playing it first time in SVM and I'd like to report these strange points I noticed, in case there are some bugs in the game file interpretation. 1. In the asteroid core, the music is an ambient cue wi...

...so my question is if there is a way to fix this

I am trying Freddy Pharkas CD version. From DOSbox there is no text option, although there is still the hanged man bar that sets the text speed. When I run it from ScummVM however there is both text and speech (which means that the text files are still in the CD). However, in some dialogues I can se...

I see. In any way, they were separate releases.

Is there any information about the "Hercules font" option for the AGI games?

I doubt there is such an option but I'd like to ask anyway. I'd like to ask if there is an option to save and restore a raw snapshot of a game, emulator-style. I mean, save snapshots even where the game engine doesn't allow saving (Eg. during arcade sequences or cutscenes). One of the reasons I ask ...

I think the options are valid only if the game supports it. For example the early AGI games were programed to run in Hercules, CGA or EGA modes, so these options run those games accordingly. This can't be the case with later SCI games, so the options can be a little confusing. Some games could be ru...

I have tried to experiment with some game settings, but I saw no observable difference, plus I found no relevant information online, so I ask here. In some AGI games there is the option to "Use Hercules hires font". What exactly is this? I have tried a game with and without this option che...

Is there a known problem with HQ1 (Amiga)? I have tried with 2 different copies. In one instance, I enter the castle and sometimes (presumably when the swordmaster appears) i get an error msg about a missing script, and the game crashes. In another instance, when I enter the screen south of the town...

Recently I mounted a CD image of LiT to play with SVM. The engine recognised the game, but popped a warning that running directly from the CD is not supported and it is suggested to rip the game and play from the HD. Nonetheless i played and finished all the game without any problems (other than a g...

I don't know if it makes sense in modern machines, but with older machines DOSbox ismore resource hungry, resulting in delays, stutterng etc. Same with some emulators like UAE. Gameplay with SVM is more smooth as the game runs as a Windows application.

I just finished playing the Amiga-SOMI. I would like to point out a couple of things which I think are bugs and perhaps the developers should consider checking and/or fixing. Firstly , the label of the game as VGA/Amiga/English. As I discussed above, the Amiga version is not a VGA version. Certainly...

Is it (was it?) possible to import a QfG I character into QfG III and IV, or was this prevented by Sierra, so only a character from the previous game was usable? I haven't tried it, but I remember from the manual of QfGIII that you can import a QfGI character. But why miss a great game such as QfGI...
