That got rid of the lines? I know there was one for GK2.

I could almost swear that I remember there being one.

My installer takes care of that.

Doesn't GOG use your installer?

I'll have to explore how much of my installer that they used. I'll be able to test all of GOG's Sierra games, now.

QfG is already fixed. GK2 should mostly be fixed, but the configs may still need some tweaking. I am currently looking at Phant 1. I didn't know if they had used my installer of Basti's. I suspect that it was Basti's, which installed the Win version and they just dumped the base of the 1st CD into the game's folder for the DOS files. It is missing the file that stores the movie settings. After I have had a better chance to look through the game, I'll report the needed fixes to GOG.

I'll try to look at the others over the next few days.

Sounds good.
If there's anything I can do on my end, let me know.
