I guess you might be duplicating a lot of the work done by Radiant in his KQIII+, although obviously he is not redrawing graphics like you are. Maybe you can get together and share?

Hi,

Well we do have everything covered, Programming, art, music, ect. His project looks great and we do encourage him to complete it, these are two completely seperate projects which will not interfere with each other.

Cheers,
Broomie

Can't wait, but is it going to set back the production of QFI?

Either way, it sounds like a good project. Radiant is ambitious to make the older games into PNC games, and I hope he continues with that. But the artwork involved with updating these to VGA is very nice to look at as well. Will this be like KQ1VGA (a direct remake) or more like KQ2:RTS (a remake with artistic license)? I know its funny comparing AGDI with anyone, but it looks like you'll bring us another great KQ remake.

It will be a 1:1 remake meaning everything is staying the same, well with the exception of course being updated into Point and Click and VGA graphics, not to mention professionally updated music. This shouldn't effect the production of QFI, at least I hope not, that part isn't really my forte. Thanks for the comments though.

Blackthorne · Thu 26/08/2004 18:24:44

The info on the website states that our remake is a 1:1 remake, so it's more like KQ1VGA in that respect.

We've added dialogue pictures and closeups for some of the dialogue portions of the script, but we have not changed or added any details like KQ2VGA+.

About Radiant's project - he and I talk quite frequently, so we know about each others projects. Ã,Â

Heh, and no, QFI's production will not be slowed by this production. Ã,Â We have seperate scripters for each game, while some memebers of the art team work both projects!

You can borrow some of lucasfan's work.

Klitos is the programmer for KQIII VGA and i'm the programmer for QFI. That is I program in my free time...when i'm not drinking....which is all I do in my free time...so that means I have no free time...or I have free time but I drink...or I drink while I program...which I do in my free time...but do I have free time?....oh man i'm so confused now, I need another drink.

P.S.
To Vel, LF has been working with IA on KQIII VGA for some time now.

Vel · Thu 26/08/2004 21:44:04

So, will you at least remove the dead ends?

Vel, LucasFan is working with us on this project for a while.

We are making basically a 1:1 remake, no plot additions ala KQ2VGA, but perhaps removing some dead end situations is a possibility.

I know you're a big Sierra fan, Vel, so I promise to take real good care of this production!

BT, will the music be MIDI?

By the way, you're one of the serious developers, I d hope that you will finish this as soon as possible.

Blackthorne · Fri 27/08/2004 15:55:32

Right now, Vel, I believe we will have both a MIDI and .ogg soundtrack for KQIII

And now... the ultimate question: When will it be ready?

NightQuest · Fri 27/08/2004 19:21:37

Wow looks GREAT! cant wait for a demo or till it comes out, are you working on a demo? And if so then when do you think it will be out?

Rambaldi0503 · Fri 27/08/2004 19:28:36

It'll be done eventualyl kids. We're quite busy, we've got three projects going on.

Blackthorne · Fri 27/08/2004 20:16:56

Hehe. Right on Blackbird.

It'll be done when it's done, but check out website frequently to obtain updates. We'll probably post more there - and have other promotional materials for you.

It looks much like Radiant's King's Quest III but atleast Radiant's isn't VGA

IA's KQ3VGA remake was started last year in december, and no, IA and radiant's projects do not share any code or art. They are seperate.

Broomie · Sat 28/08/2004 18:34:46

Saying this however, we are looking for sprite artists to help us with this project, and if possible, maybe Quest for Infamy aswell.

If you are interested please reply in this thread or drop a message at our forums, of course with a portfolio of your work aswell.
