Monkey Island 2 v.1.5.1 update

Back to 2002, again. That’s the SCUMM engine from Fate of Atlantis 1.5 modified to work with Monkey Island 2. It fixes some minor music bugs from version 1.0 and it’s recommended for Power Macintosh. It also has major improvements in the interpreter engine and a better sound handling.
Usage –  Launch the “Monkey Island 2 Updater” program and select your copy of the LeChuck’s Revenge application. Both 1.0 and 1.2 versions are supported, but for the patch to work you will need to copy your Monkey 2 folder on an unlocked disk (such as your hard disk). Once succesfully applied, double click on the LeChuck’s Revenge v.1.5.1 icon to start game. If you get a “Invalid Saved Game (23,22)” error when trying to load a saved game, this is an indication that you will need to launch the game from the new LeChuck’s Revenge v1.5.1 icon.

Dark Seed patch for Mac

I made this patch back in 2002. It is meant to solve the following problem when trying to play Dark Seed on recent MacOS versions: while playing, an OS error 25 (out of memory) happens. Now it should be playable till the end.

To use this program, simply drag it into your Dark Seed game folder and run it.

Space Quest IV patch for Mac

This is a patch that I made back in 2002. It is meant to solve the following problems when trying to play SQ4 on recent MacOS versions.

– The game was forced to run in 24 bit addressing mode, like oldest system did. It no longer crashes when started up.
– Time was not correctly handled by the KGetTime function which made a wrong use of the OS Time variable.

To use this program, simply drag it into your Space Quest IV game folder and run it.

Space Quest III patch for Mac

This is a patch that I made back in 2002. It is meant to solve the following problems when trying to play SQ3 on recent MacOS versions.

– The game was forced to run in 24 bit addressing mode, like oldest system did. It no longer crashes when started up.
– Time was not correctly handled by the KGetTime function which made a wrong use of the OS Time variable.
– The required color depth to run was forced to 4 bit (16 color).

Also, I’ve found that there’s no sound driver capable of sounding out on Power Macintoshes. This bug has not been solved (yet).
