If you want I can give you a copy of my french floppy version. This version is avaliable on abandonware-france.org if you want. We always insist on legitimate copies to be donated or sourced in such cases. Not only to not support piracy in any form, but we wouldn't be able to be otherwise sure that...

I cannot tell if this is expected, bugged, or just not implemented. I installed ScummVM on my Galaxy Tab E and loaded up Spy Fox 1: Dry Cereal and both load and save are greyed out. This may not be an Android problem at all. The game engines have to be explicitly written to support saving and loadi...

I would like to know if the french version of world of xeen is supported by scummVM? Not currently. Only the English version will be officially supported in the next release. And if/when I do return to the engine to add support for other languages, it's likely only the German version will be added,...

I do not know if I am being clear enough, but It does not harm advise about it. other infocom games do use those boxes and maybe the problem is more common. Thanks for letting me know. Yes, the Gargoyle implementation of Frotz from which my engine is derived does some monkeying with expanding the u...

@dreammaster Great work, can't wait to test them myself. It seems as if the GLK engine isn't enabled by default in the current branch? At least building scummvm locally GLK remains disabled...does that mean it's not ripe for testing (yet)? Thanks. :) As I mentioned in my blog posting, the two initi...

What an amazing news! I`ve tested and merged some frotz games and I`d like to comment and make some questions. In games like lurking horror or sherlock: are the music files detected out of the box? I tested lurking horror and the first sounds at the very beginning worked, but only for three seconds...

West of House As the previous post is hinting at, the ScummGlk engine has, as of last weekend, been merged into master, and is now available in daily builds. :D At the moment, it has two sub-engines, Scott and Frotz, for Scott Adams and Infocom/ZCode games respectively. The latter supports all vers...

Every extras data has it's corresponding name, so that users (or anyone interested) know which engine uses that. Simply calling it font.dat would seem a little off, wouldn't it? I originally had it as gargoyle.dat, but had a request in the first pull request to change it to something more generic: ...

Also also, the only "complete" sub-engine completed so far within it is for the Scott Adams games. A Frotz sub-engine for Zcode/Infocom games is currently a work in progress.. I mostly still need to finish savegame handling, as well as graphic handling for the later games.

Also, to avoid confusion the new engine has been renamed to "ScummGLK", though the folder and engine prefix in commits will simply be "GLK"

Presuming all the needed files are directly present on the CD. This page on the wiki has some information about some of the special cases.

What you've experienced is known about; it was reported once see here , but unfortunately, to fix it I'd need a savegame from before the problem happened, and a way to replicate the problem.. a savegame from when it's already happened wasn't sufficient. Anyway, to get around the problem, at least us...

At some point - probably as part of some cleanup - parts of the engine lost support for 16-bit graphics. But I could be wrong about that. That's my recollection as well.. it happened when I switched several of the engines I'd worked on from using their own custom extended surface implementations to...

Why is the cursor rendered smooth? The old games like Maniac Mansion never were, they had jerky cursors. FRAPS reports 60fps for MM, so there's some limitation of how many update draws ScummVM will render somewhere. Cursor display relies on the engine calling ("polling") the events manager many tim...

I've always been a huge fan of Peter Gabriel's EVE, a point and click art-adventure game from 1996. Due to some quicktime movies in the game, it can't be played on a modern OS any more. Quicktime support ended after WIndows XP. Is there any chance that this wonderful game gets supported by ScummVM ...
