This depatcher will downgrade your QFG5 installation to 1.0. It assumes that you're starting with an installation from Steam or GOG.

1. Copy your QFG5 installation to a new location
2. Extract this .zip inside that folder
3. Run depatcher\depatch.bat (it will request admin privileges because the utility I'm using is old; sorry about that!)

Once this is done, your game will be almost exactly as though you had installed it from a 1.0 CD. The only difference is that I also used [QFG5Patcher](https://github.com/ubipred/QFG5Patcher) to allow the game to run without the game CD.

From here, you'll need to add the program to DxWnd. (If you don't already have QFG5 setup in DxWnd, go [here](https://www.speedrun.com/quest_for_glory_v_dragon_fire/resources/z116u) first.) Then follow these instructions to add a config for 1.0:

1. In the Options menu, turn on "Expert mode"
2. Right-click your current QFG5 setup and select "Duplicate"
3. Right-click the new icon and select "Modify"
4. Change "Path" to your new 1.0 executable
5. In the "Compat." tab (top row, third from the right), enable the "Handle Exceptions" tweak
6. Turn off "Expert mode" so you don't shoot yourself in the foot later

This is all you need to do to allow the game to run in modern Windows; you don't need to enable any other compatibility options.

If you have any questions or run into any problems, you can ask us on the [QFG Speedrunning Discord server](https://discord.gg/BZ9Gmtyb).

1.0 depatcher

These save files begin at the very start of a new game.  You can play as Elsa or Magnum Opus, and as any class (or no class).  

I can verify it is possible to beat the game as Elsa, marry Elsa as Elsa, and then pass up on the throne at the end of the game as Elsa to make Elsa the Queen.  It's quite amazing.  :)

Elsa and Magnum Opus Character Saves

If you want to run QFG5 in windowed mode instead of fullscreen, you can use the program DxWnd. Launch DxWnd, then click File -> Import, and choose one of the .dxw config files in the zip. The only difference is the path to the game executable, which is different depending on whether you're using the Steam or GOG version. If you have your installation somewhere else, you can use either config and change the installation path yourself. (Right-click -> Modify, and change the Path parameter. This is also where you can change the dimensions of the window if you aren't happy with 1280x960.)
