Some issues with Commander Keen in the Anthology Release
So, I've found some issues with the versions of Commander Keen included in the Anthology Release. I figured I'd put it all in 1 topic. Just as a heads up, I know these are Mac screenshots. I installed the games in Windows 8 (via VMWare) and copied over the game files back to my Mac.
It looks like Keen 4 is version 1.1 & Keen 5 is version 1.4. http://i.imgur.com/UMOhkbB.png http://i.imgur.com/aHCZO6v.png Both should be version 1.4 (like the Steam release). Here's what it should look like if the 2 games are the latest version: http://i.imgur.com/6h1ctP7.png http://i.imgur.com/jcQHv7t.png Another thing, it looks like Keen 4 & Keen 5 have old save-games included. Not sure if they were for testing purposes or what. http://i.imgur.com/apDjAWS.png http://i.imgur.com/FGNdAkL.png This also affects the default high-scores http://i.imgur.com/wJpQJys.png http://i.imgur.com/CC2tjQE.png I know that some of these are minor gripes but, can the installer (both for Goodbye Galaxy & the Anthology) be updated to included version 1.4 for Keen 4? |

Those saves should be removed indeed. I also agree with the game being patched up to the latest stable version.

I noticed that Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure also had some non-default high score data. I hope that they will fix these little issues as these oversights make the entire package feel like a dubiously obtained "outpouring of water".
The included version of Monster Bash Episode 1 is also the shareware release as opposed to the registered release (the registered release omits the annoying nag screens). |
Re: Some issues with Commander Keen in the Anthology Release...
Monster Bash episode 1 is actually only at version 1.0 as well, should definitely be changed to the v2.1 registered. Also since it has the FILE_ID.DIZ of the shareware version, you can't play part 2 and 3 past the first level.
Stargunner is also only at v1.0b while the most recent version is v1.1a. Some hints sheets are also missing: - Alien Carnage - Arctic Adventure - Bio Menace - Major Stryker - Monuments of Mars - Pharaoh's Tomb |
