Re: *UPDATES!* ESRGAN AI Upscaling (HiRes packs now possible!)

I'm working on SQ4 and SQ5 at the moment but it's slow going because I've got a bunch of other things to do. It's a meticulous process because some models don't work well with some backgrounds. So I'm doing a lot of pre and post-upscale pixel modifications to backgrounds and sprites to make sure th...

Re: More Little Big Adventure on the way

It is very unexpected but welcome news! Eurogamer wrote that, even though development has not started yet, the new title is more likely a reboot of the series. The bad news, however, is that even if all goes to plan, we won't be seeing a new Little Big Adventure instalment any time soon. Developmen...

More Little Big Adventure on the way

In light of ScummVMs support of Little Big Adventure this seemed relevant. Frederick Raynal and Didier Chanfray have announced a new studio to produce new Little Big Adventure games. https://twitter.com/2point21/status/1435578917058801666 https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E-vzvh7XMAAE0vH?format=jpg&na...

Re: Eye Of The Beholder 1 & 2 AGA Versions?

These games are only available via illegal download and thus cannot be supported, since we have a strict anti-piracy policy. My understanding is that these game versions are basically made up from 3 different games (graphics from the PC versions of EOB, sound data from the Amiga versions and some a...

Re: Loom in 16 undithered colours or B&W?

Seeing these games in black & white makes it look noirish. I like it.

Re: Only OpenGL and SDL now?

The Graphics Mode dropdown now only has the options for OpenGL or SDL, and by default the mode is now OpenGL. The scaler options which were (all) using SDL were split from Graphics Mode and put into two new dropdown lists grouped as "Scaler" option (still in the Graphics tab). You'll only...

The latest daily build for scummVM seems to have no other option for graphics mode. Is this intended or am I missing something?

Here's a video I made with his build playing Space Quest 4 with my ESRGAN background upscales: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVdali9PzKQ This can also be done for SCI0 EGA games! VGA-ifying EGA games can be much easier now! EDIT: Here's KQ4 with a few VGA backgrounds: https://www.youtube.com/watc...

Re: Ultima VIII bug reports

I'm not sure if this belongs in a bug report but when trying to attack zombies with a dagger I find it impossible to hit anything. For comparison I fired up dosbox and had no trouble. I seem to have to hold down the mouse button to attack for scummvm but in the dosbox version I double click and its ...

Re: ESRGAN: AI Neural Net Upscaling (For HiRes Packs?)

I guess its possible to add the night screens to King's Quest IV which were removed from later versions. The link below has an explanation of what I mean and you can see for yourself with the comparison screenshots. http://sciwiki.sierrahelp.com/index.php?title=King%27s_Quest_IV:_The_Perils_of_Rosel...
