#15610: SCI: SQ5 - Speed problems in the game

Priority:  normal         |  Component:  Engine: SCI
 Version:                 |   Keywords:
    Game:  Space Quest 5  |
--------------------------+-------------------------
 System Windows 10 Pro
 ScummVM: 2.8.1
 Game Version: DOS
 Language: English, German

 I tested this in the German and English version, but the starting scene in
 Space Quest V, where we see the outside of the bridge simulator , which
 then opens and the rats run away, runs entirely too fast.

 You can not observe the actual motion of the spinning lights (it's just a
 blur) and the rats run away at light speed, so it's impossible to observe
 them. I know this is not tied to the speed slider, since that is at a
 lower setting when starting a new game and Roger's speed actually is
 correct for the scene. The bridge simulator getting lowered also goes too
 fast.

 Additionally, in the scene where the rat runs into the computer, it also
 was so fast you couldn't observe the rat. Also, in the intro the lighting
 effect behind Roger in the title screen goes way too fast as well, as do
 the stars in the background. This all points to the game still having some
 speed issues.

 I do remember years past having played the game on an old computer with
 the speed slowed as well, allowing me to observe all those details without
 problem. Are those speed problems fixable?
