Re: monkey4 game ID not supported

If you're compiling yourself, did you use configure --enable-all-engines ? That should activate everything even if it's marked non-stable.

Re: Your Must-Play Adventure Games in ScummVM?

People have already posted some great ones, but I'll add a couple more to the list: Grim Fandango -- an all-time classic in spite of its jankiness. King's Quest V and VI -- the two best in the series IMO. Space Quest IV -- I like this one the best out of the series, although it almost drove me crazy...

For those who don't have it, Sanitarium is being offered free on gog.com for a few more hours. :D

Re: "Back For More?"

Great job getting these working. I'm genuinely amazed you were able to find a copy of Uncle Henry's Playhouse. I always wonder who thought it was a good idea to create a game where people speak in a thick Scottish accent and there are verbal cues, puns and rhymes, but no subtitles. :x Trilobyte made...

Re: Thousands of games needing testing

Just wanted to say that this is stupendously great. Dug into my old archive of AGS games, and I will give a few a try soon.

Re: Gabriel Knight Sins of the Fathers

ScummVM has a lot of its own built-in bug fixes for many SCI games (and others), so just the original version from the CD should suffice and play without issues.

If that is the case, then there's probably two possibilities. Either you were sold a bogus/bootleg copy, or you have a version that has not yet been added to ScummVM. In the former case it will never work with ScummVM, but assuming it's a legit copy then the ScummVM team would likely be interested i...

You don't need/want to run the installer for any game you're running with ScummVM. For SCI games, just copy the entire CD to a directory on your HD, click add game in ScummVM, point it to the directory you copied everything, and it should be added. More detailed instructions are here: http://wiki.sc...

Try Ctrl+M to enable mouselock. Makes it easier to get the mouse all the way to the edge of the screen on SCI games. That or just go to full screen mode.

Having said that, once I get the whole release process for 1.9.1 and onwards sorted out I'm willing to also create 64bit builds for Windows. There is however a non-trivial amount of work involved in making 'upgrades' from a 32bit to a 64bit installation work smoothly for all users. I don't expect t...

I don't really have any time to progress my Linux testing or to learn how to compile ScummVM myself because of a recent close family bereavement. At the moment, ScummVM is just a happy distraction for me. I would suggest trying the following: Open up a terminal in Linux and enter the following comm...

Though part of the error is cut off, it probably means that you have an unknown version of the game.

You can submit an issue to the bug tracker with the info in your error message and the devs will likely add it if it's a legit version.
