"Connections: It's A Mind Game", works well but with QuickTime 2.1.2 #3601

Hello team, this is more of a documentation issue, I'm not sure if DoxBox-X has any fault here, and probably doesn't.

For people wanting to use DosBox-X to play the Win 95 game named "Connections, It's A Mind Game", it can be done. The game comes with a QuickTime 2.0.3 installer, but to me I get the bug where you can't see voice dialogues, which is a main aspect of the game. But with QuickTime 2.1.2 it works as expected.

Best to document such issues on pcgamingwiki.com

You are almost correct @rderooy because it could be asked, why doesn't this game work with the original QuickTime version that it brings out of the box? Shouldn't the emulator emulate the system in such a way that it works in it's original design? If it should work out of the box, then that means that DosBox-X is not fulfilling this work. But I'm not an expert, so I can't prove whether or not DosBox-X is at fault here for not making this game work out of the box.

In any case, your advise is good, as both things can be made, a report here, and a documentation there.
