overwriting questtext files when updating game

Post by DaveK »

It might seem obvious to the masses but it stopped me for a few days . . .

When you reinstall the game when updating, the questtext.dat file is overwritten with the original file. This isn't a problem if you are on the original quest, but you "lose" the quest if you are doing Marvin's Quest for Peace! There is no sign of the last message!

Solution: overwrite the original file with Marvin's quest file :D
