Re: 3 questions regarding to use of ScummVM

There's a MiSTer project/product (actually a Terrasic DE10-Nano FPGA Development Kit with an extra SDRAM module) that uses lots of cores, one of them is ScummVM. What advantage had this over the use of ScummVM when using it for example with a dedicated version of Linux? I don't thing a FPGA has any...

Re: Macintosh music in SCI games

There's a new branch at https://github.com/waltervn/scummvm/tre ... d_amigamac

Testing is appreciated for Amiga (SCI0 and SCI1) and Mac (SCI1). SCI0 Mac sound is also supported, but unfortunately these games are not yet playable in ScummVM.

Re: Mystery House - how to play ?

I don't know if there's anything different about the Mac port, but normally you should select the directory that contains the mysthous.dsk file, not the file itself. Does that work?

Were the Apple II versions of Ulysses and Cranston Manor ever re-released in such a way? No, at least not as far I know. Perhaps GOG might consider releasing all the Hi-Res titles in a compilation package (once ScummVM supports them all). We do support them all now, at least the Apple II versions. ...

Sorry for the late reply. Playback through real hardware is currently only supported on ALSA (Linux). Windows support might be added at a later date (most likely using inpout32).

I wrote new sound code for SCI0 and SCI1 Mac games a few years ago, but it's not available in master yet. If you're feeling adventurous, you can try it out by compiling the 'sci_sound' branch at https://github.com/waltervn/scummvm/tree/sci_sound

Re: Kings Quest VI Problems W/Video

1) The Windows version and the DOS version play the same music, where the Windows version should play the (or at least be given an option to pick) "extended level midi" that was exclusive to the Windows version of the game. "Extended level MIDI" is less capable than General MIDI...

Just to clear this up a bit (sorry for the late reply)... For technical reasons we had to split up several categories. Currently SCI01 refers only to the S.old.* series of interpreters.

In SCI0, reverb is always reset before every song. Okay, that's interesting. May I point out that ScummVM currently does not do that? I guess a call to setReverb should be inserted into some place like sendInitCommands after all? We are aware of this. The code is still work-in-progress. I'll let yo...

Based on that, I might surmise that B1 50 could mean "change the reverb for this song, but change it back afterwards". But that's just an educated guess, someone more familiar with the inner workings of SCI should look at this. In SCI0, reverb is always reset before every song. I will loo...

I still can't reproduce Raziel's missing music issue, though. I commented on Hubert's bug report. The things he describes in his last comment all seem normal to me. Thanks for finding the checksum bug, it should now be fixed. Regarding the reverb issue. This is missing functionality and it cannot b...
