I have played KQV to the end, but it crashes/hangs when I defeat Mordack. I was using the 0.000.061 version of the game. I do have the KQ collection from GOG, so I HAVE the 1.000.052 CD version of the game, and I DO have the patched save game for some version from sierrahelp.com, seemingly for 1.000.052, too. However the interpreter complains.

Does anyone have a WORKING end game, so I can watch the ending on my 486?

Not going to be much help, but I believe that certain floppy versions of the game have this issue, but the CD version does not.

There is an 062 patch you can try:

Oh yes the patch sounds like EXACTLY my problem! I will try to apply it!

EDIT: Attached the patch locally. Just needs xdelta (e.g. "brew install xdelta" on macOS or Linux) and can be applied like this:

xdelta3 -d -s RESOURCE.001 kq5_062_fix.xdelta3 RESOURCE.001.new
