Re: EcoQuest: is the CD version talkie?
TrivialBalderdash is saying that the Talkie version has a RESOURCE.AUD file that is 305MB and the total of the game is 318MB... You're saying yours is almost 300MB? Is yours this one: https://ibb.co/vkrW3xP ? The "du" command says 298 MB. The resource.aud file is 292 MB, or 305,187,924 by...

Re: EcoQuest: is the CD version talkie?
I want to buy a copy of EcoQuest, the Search for Cetus from eBay. This would be a Sierra Originals edition. Is it talkie? Are all CD versions of EcoQuest talkie? The seller doesn't know. I only have a loose CD, and I haven't played it much. But it says "Sierra Originals" on the back, ther...

ZASSETS1 ZASSETS2 ZASSETS3 ZNEMMX ZNEMSCR NEMESIS.STR Any suggestions greatly appreciated. One possibility is that according to the ScummVM Wiki: From CD1, copy the zassets directory into the game root directory From CD2, copy the zassets directory into the game root directory, overwriting any dupl...

Re: Which Version of Gold Rush on Steam?
Scummvm now refuses to run the dos floppy version of Gold Rush with message that required files are missing. Probably a pirated version. Though Macintosh version runs fine The version I bought from The Software Farm years ago seems to work. Based on what was written earlier, I guess that's the same...

Re: Which games would you like to be supported on the future?
Frankenstein: Through the Eyes of the Monster https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Director/Games lists Frankenstein as a Director 4.0b1 game. I don't know how close that is to being supported, though. Some other Director 4 games supposedly work well, but I imagine it depends a lot on exactly which p...

Re: Idea for possible optional visual improvement for downscaled sprites
Still I keep hoping a dev can shed some light on whether this would be possible with acceptable effort. I, of course, don't expect anyone to put it on the top of his list, but maybe someone could point me to the place(s) where the scaled sprite is written into the image buffer. Then maybe someone c...

Re: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: Explain this mistery to me
Yes, but file XX.LFL is in disk 3 for the 3.5" version, and in disk 6 for the 5.25" version. How does the game know whether to request disk 3 or disk 6? Let's say that disk 1 is currently in the drive. Does the game check for file YY.LFL that is in disk 1 in the 3.5" version, but in ...

Re: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: Explain this mistery to me
And while on the subject, I'm still curious about the nazi killing you in the library on the first failed attempt to enter the catacombs versus killing you after a few failed attempts. I don't know about the EGA version, but the 16 color Mac version and the 256 color PC version both behave the same...

Re: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: Explain this mistery to me
First, I thought it was the piracy protection (and that this copy was not cracked). However, I remember that, in the non-cracked version, when you failed to enter the right code, Indy said you were playing the demo version, and when Donovan asked Indy to translate the slate, Indy messed up. Donovan...

Re: how can i get the local game menu invoked by F5 instead of CTRL-F5 in v2.8?
For the Inherit the Earth stuff, at least earlier versions didn't needed it or at least the error message never showed up. I played it years ago with my files like that and the audio files coming from James Woodcock. So not sure if its really needed to have the warning at all. Have to check my CD a...

Re: how can i get the local game menu invoked by F5 instead of CTRL-F5 in v2.8?
how can i get the local game menu invoked by F5 the old way instead of CTRL-F5 in ver 2.8? i also unmarked the "use native system file browser" in the GUI tab in the global options. If you're talking about the LucasArts games, and I understand the question correctly, you may have to unche...

Re: Error with Backyard Baseball 2001
"Read Error in /Volumes/Backyard Baseball 2001" explains the problems. Your CD is not readable. Try to clean the surface and do not run from the CD, but copy over the files. Maybe, maybe not. At least one of the followup errors is "Is a directory", which seems like a strange rea...
