Space Quest 6 Graphics issue, sort of.

[kad.dsl]

I'm having a very odd issue with Spacequest 6.


When I get to the tapeworm scene, I walk down from the duodendum (sp?) screen and I see the tapeworm scene scroll upwards very fast (speed setting make no difference) and then I am left with a black upper screen and the usual controls, text box, etc on the bottom. Since I can't see anything, I can't throw the pill to it and if I attempt to walk anywhere, it eats me.

Running under Windows 7, Nvidia graphics.

Anyone else seeing this? Anyone have a fix?

Yeah, had the same thing. To fix that part you'll have to turn off "scrolling" in the game options.

As an alternate fix: I got this working by turning the CPU speed of DOSBox down to 50%. You can do this by pressing Alt-Enter to exit fullscreen, and using Ctrl-F11 to turn down the speed (Ctrl-F12 increases it). Alt-Enter to go fullscreen again after.
