QFG4 Enhanced is a mod for Quest for Glory IV: Shadows of Darkness, created by AshLancer.

Description:

An unofficial update for Quest for Glory IV: Shadows of Darkness that builds on Sierra's anthology release and NewRisingSun's speed fixes. Fixes crashes, lockups, dead ends, glitches, sprites/animations, sounds, music, and text. Restores cut content and audio.

- Roughly an hour of cut audio has been restored! All deaths are now fully voiced by the narrator, John Rhys-Davies. Several of the game's items now have their descriptions voiced, although about 2/3rds of this audio is missing from the resource files and cannot be recovered. Many, many unique messages that previously could not be seen by the player due to faulty scripting will now play. Most of these messages involve casting Detect Magic, attempting to sleep, and using various items on rooms.

- Every dead end in the game should now be gone, including the infamous Domovoi bug, getting trapped in the Monastery from entering through the window, and the Wizard being unable to cast spells in the final room.

- Several annoying bugs have been squashed: bone cage issues, Paladin's Honor Shield disappearing after rest, Fighters with climb unable to read the book on Climbing, Necrotaurs drowning out Katrina's voice in front of the castle gates, music cutting out during the cave endgame, etc.

- Animation Improvements: Levitate sparklies should now appear consistent across rooms, the Fighter now swings his axe on the gate instead of a sword.

- Restored the cut encounter with the Crypt Wraith beneath the Cemetary. I based the script and reward on the information available within the unused narration. Some lines were taken from other parts of the game to complete the teller, but the overall encounter should be close to what the programmer had envisioned!

- Some missing deaths have been restored: That "Trapped" Feeling in the Thieves' Guild and "Spelled Down" during the fairy ambush could not be seen by the player due to duplicate entries in their respective rooms. Wraith to the Finish is included with the Crypt Wraith.

- Some inventory icons have been restored: Battle Axe, Piotyr's Sword, Piotyr's Shield, and cooked Elderbury Pie. Yuri now now gives you a key to the chest in your room (has no real purpose other than flavor).

- The final battle now has sound effects!

*Note: A full list of changes with additional info (for NERDS!) has been included in the accompanying readme.

Instructions:

1.) Backup the PATCHES folder in your QFG4 directory. An easy way to do this is to rename the folder to something like PATCHES_BAK.

e.g. C:\Sierra\Quest for Glory Collection Series\Quest for Glory 4

C:\Program Files (x86)\GOG Galaxy\Games\Quest for Glory Series\Quest for Glory 4

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\Common\Quest For Glory Collection\QFG4

2.) Extract the contents of the zip to the PATCHES folder in your QFG4 directory. Always overwrite when prompted.

3.) Due to changes made to the spellhook script (21.scr) and inventory scripts (16.scr & 35.scr), your current savegames will crash when you attempt to access those menus. They will also crash if you've saved in any of the rooms modified by the patch. ~You MUST start a new game in order to play!~

4.) Enjoy!!

5.) To uninstall, restore the old PATCHES folder to your QFG4 directory.
