Telltale Games

Darkmire · 09/04/2010, 10:54 pm

I realize this might not be a Telltale issue, per se. The game tries to verify legal ownership by asking for random words from the manual, but it doesn't come with one. I had to look up a manual online, but it does this verification every time you start the game. It would be nice if either a manual was included or available for download, if the verification was removed or only required one time, or if there were some other option. Perhaps this is Vivendi's fault (the publisher that released the collection), I'm not really sure. But hopefully there's a work-around. If there's one I don't know about, let me know.

By the way, the Adventure Bundle is fantastic. I hope it does really well.

The manual is there it is in whatever folder you installed GAB in.
ex: C:\Program Files\Telltale Game\Adventure Bundle
There should be a folder called King's Quest and then a folder in that called manuals.

Oh, of course I overlooked that. -_- Thanks, mateo360. I wonder why they did it this way though. All of the KQ manuals are compiled into one, and you have to scroll through the thing to get to KQIV, which starts on page 21. Then you have to count the page numbers to figure out what the original page number was. It's like a puzzle in itself. @_o Cool that it actually has the manual, though.

These are the exact same files in the cd version I have and it is all one manual in that one to.
