Everybody drop everything and see this (100% SCI decompiled sources!)

Well, I just successfully got out of the car a couple times, in a DOSBox launched from SCI Companion, so I dunno what to tell you.

[doomlazer]

Oh well, of course it's only happening for me.

[Kawa]

I haven't checked different cycle settings. Have you?

[doomlazer]

Cycles didn't seem to make a difference, but I don't see the problem with PQ2 1.001.000, just 1.002.011 from steam PQ collection or GOG. If it's just on my end probably best for me to let it go.

Hmm, could this be the bug mentioned in script_patches.cpp:

Code: [Select]

// Starting in PQ2 1.002.011, the introduction runs too fast. The speed test was
//  changed to run before the introduction but this introduced a bug where the
//  game speed wasn't restored from the temporary fast speed used for the test.
//
// We fix this by restoring the game speed to the correct default value. Since
//  we're patching the speed test anyway, we also disable it so that it returns
//  the maximum value without delaying game startup.
//
// Applies to: All versions, although the speed bug is in 1.002.011 and later
// Responsible method: rm99:doit
// Fixes bug: #5496

Y'know what? That tracks. That's probably it.

[MusicallyInspired]

Is that why the PQ2 intro with the highway was always so fast?

[Kawa]

Could well be.
