Re: Request for Enhancement

Oh. I am requesting because as i put the cd contents next to the install of broken sword it started mass-adding 6 "games" when mass added: sword2, sword2-demo, sword2-1, sword2-1-demo, sword2-2, sword2-2-demo or something similar. (Sword2-1 actually works, but not for long i'd bet). Ah. W...

Managed to make it "work" by giving up on the launcher. The game only needs to be invoked on the correct dir. #!/bin/bash GAME_PATH=$(dirname "$(readlink -f "$0")") if [ -d ~/.wine/ ]; then cd ~/.wine/dosdevices rm -f x: x:: rm -f f: f:: else wineboot cd ~/.wine/dosdevi...

Re: Request for Enhancement

Could the mass add function (or the add) not add a game if the required files are incomplete? You mean verify each and every one of the game's data files? That sounds like quite a bit of work, if it's a game like The Feeble Files which has 1000+ data files, and that's not even counting the 200+ cut...

Changing subject - Broken Sword 2 really doesn't want to be portable... I managed to make original game work on wine with a "fake drive" (to allow scummvm to work at the same time with symlinks) however the registry entries of it are defeating me. I'm sure there is one hidden (probably the...

Another update: The ability to play speech with simultaneous text has been added for SQ4CD. It's not available for the other 3 yet (Pharkas CD, LB2 CD, KQ6 CD). There are no dialog texts included in KQ5 CD, so this feature isn't possible for that game. Edit: Of course, this has only been added in t...

Actual "teletransportation" would be difficult, since there are situational puzzles that don't allow you to go some places because of a hotspot in the middle of the path. It could be done by just not speeding up & not displaying the ego & showing it when it is stopped by another sc...

You should just enable it on your config file. You're actually projecting what most users want by default. I for one want the most enhancements i can get. For the "real" purists, there is always dosbox.

The Last Express engine was merged?

Only the best adventure game ever. :o

Reverse engineering it is painful i guess? The google code page seemed like it was reimplementing the whole game, no script interpreter right?
