At first, I thought the Scummvm developers who worked on the game disabled the events, but on thinking more about it, that seems unlikely, as these were not bug fixes. I now believe that Sierra itself changed these death scenes in a later patch, probably in response to player complaints. I don't kn...

I'm surprised at some lack of particular events (namely, certain death scenes) in this version, which makes me wonder if Scummvm programmers removed them from the GOG version. Not that I'm aware of, though I'm not that familiar with the game and hardly at all with the AGI engine. But I'm curious......

Though on Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade EGA version, Dreamm bypasses copy protection automatically while Scummvm does not accept any random codes in the translation notebook. I guess Aaron is taking a more lax approach to copy protection. ScummVM generally only bypasses it if there are release...

I've only tried Loom (the only FM Towns game I own), and ran into a scrolling glitch during the intro. A known bug, apparently?

I could be wrong, but I don't think that particular upscaling has ever been part of ScummVM.

Another two years, and two things have changed: ScummVM now has easy access to the classic Mac fonts. I got tired of having to caveat everything I say about Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade with "but it's not implemented yet". So there's now another pull request , this time for implement...

Theoretically, one could translate the spoken texts, but whether that is worth the effort... Possible yes, but as you say it sounds like a lot of effort. The easiest would probably be to make sure that timing of the translated lines match the original, like when a movie is dubbed into another langu...

Does anyone know if there is a tool to extract the audio files? I only found XXX, but I can't get it to work. https://github.com/symm/LAAExtract I could be wrong, but I think CDDA.SOU in Loom, like the audio track from the CD version, is one single audio file where the game tells which parts of it ...

Does anyone who’s experimented with the CD version of Loom know of an ideal (or close to it) spot for the audio playback adjustment? The way the audio file is organised, however, indicates there will always be some degree of cutting off or track overlap. When I added the setting, I compared the rip...

Anyway, I was told I could use ScummVM as a program to play my new game. I have absolutely no idea how to use the software, this is completely new to me, but I am also eager to learn and to play my new game!! I don't own any of the Manhunter games myself, but I assume the ScummVM wiki page about it...

I was just wondering if there are any plans, or if it's been discussed, about adding support for the Ripper adventure game with Christopher Walken? I'm looking at picking up a copy some time and noticed it's not listed under the supported games list yet. The game worked well in DOSBox when I tried ...

When starting the white chamber (which I had in my backlog for ages) in Scummvm on archlinux compiled with the latest code from master, it notifies the absence of wintermute.zip. Can't find this standalone file anywhere on this site. It should be part of the ScummVM source code: dists/engine-data/w...

I hoped to find something like this pseudo-code: MouseOver(object) { if (SCUMMGame._version > 3 || verb=="What is") UpdateSentenceWith(object); else // do nothing } The point I was trying to make was that you'd probably only find one small part of the puzzle in the ScummVM C++ code. The e...

Q1: Is there an easy way how to change it? I dug through the source code of SCUMMVM and it seems it is handled somewhere in engines\scumm\input.cpp, but I have not found the exact spot yet. Is there already a custom build that does that? If I understand things correctly the "what is" feat...

Can someone please give me detailed instructions on how to backup scummvm games that are already installed on scummvm? Thanks! I'm a newcomer so, not sure how to proceed. Much appreciation!! I haven't done this myself, and I'm not on Windows, but I guess the two most important things to find are th...
