> Added Wait(1) to EVA pod minigame to limit FPS to 60 to prevent issues at higher cycle rates. The thrust level's doit method appears to be polled every possible cycle. (FloatObj)
When I originally played this (on a 16Mhz Mac LC) the quicktime events were all trivially easy because the game didn't adjust for the framerate. I guess this bites the other way when you run it on a modern machine.
It's assume that the CD version was developed alongside the floppy version and that the code forked at some point. The floppy version got the fixes, whereas the CD version didn't.
Somebody in the retro adventure gaming community with the handle NewRisingSun made a patch that used the floppy disk background images and has patched script resources to solve the myriad timing issues, whilst integrating seamlessly with the speech of the CD version.
I remember reading somewhere many, many years ago that the graphics were adjusted to have less colors to work in Windows, which reserved 20/256 colors for system use.
