I bought the Roberta Williams Anthology years ago and am trying to make an installer for it because the one included in the collection is 16-bit and therefore won't run on Windows 7 x64. Since I'm making my own installer, I might was well include all patches and emulators needed to run the games nowadays.

I'm already including the latest versions of AppleWin, DOSBox, and ScummVM emulators and I seem to have all of the games working, so that part is done.

My question, though, is whether my files are the most up-to-date copies of the games?

I've found this page listing a bunch of patches and I'm a bit lost as to what all I would need. I'm pretty sure that the RWA includes the KQ4 fix, but I'm not sure about any of the others and the Sierra Help doesn't talk about the RWA very much.

I did fix weird the KQ6 intro animation bug by replacing the VGA320.DRV file with one dated May 28, 1993. I also replaced that same file for KQ5 and that seems to work OK.

What about the firecracker speed glitch in KQ7? How is that fixed? I tried downloading the DOSBox installers from that site, but didn't find one that would recognize the RWA CDs.

I have noticed that the singing in the KQ7 intro has a lot of noise to it. I haven't found a good setting for this yet. Does anyone have any suggestions for this?

I will try that. Apparently the site is having some issues at the moment. Sometimes I get the forum, sometimes a 404...

You also might want to remove the session ID from your link (sid=....) just in case.

I'll mark your post as the answer. I somehow overlooked that there was a forum there.
