Well, I just bought from my friend LSL1 Remake, SQ4 and SQ5 Russian versions. Are they fan-translated or something? I never heard of Russian versions of these games. BTW, executables are named newsciv.exe, which is problably newer version of engine to support cyrillic characters... |

They're unofficial translations... The games have altered sprites (such as Ken in Lefty's) and a lot of other things that point to "unofficialness"... The NEWSCIV you talk about isn't a newer version of the engine, but has an intro attached to it (saying "T & J Soft presents *name of game*, with a couple of photos, etc.) and is packed/encrypted... |

Damn! The CDs seemed to be originals... And it costed me quite much... :-\ At least I got Space Quest 5 French and German versions for this money too... And I didn't get them running either (all original SCI games work)... |
