Great tool, I was looking for something just like this. I'm compressing Broken Sword 2 at the moment so I'll let you know if it works. One question - Can I use the BS2 tool to compress BS1 files? I guess it should work since they are the same kind of files. To quote the README file: Please note tha...

The changes between floppy and CD could have been wanted by the game's director. The team may not have been 'that' experienced with CD but removing text and substituting with audio doesn't exactly sound like a technical decision, more like a design decision. Personally, I think both versions are wo...

Re: Superhero adventures?

I'm a big fan of superheroes, which I think is evident, so naturally I've noticed somewhat of a... lack of the genre in adventure games. I know a few were made back in the mid-eighties. But I've never been too fond of Scott Adams's (no, not Dilbert guy) games myself. Or rather, I don't have the pat...

Oh, and not to complicate things further, but I remember when I was a kid, I had a TurboDuo catalog that I got from a Radio Shack. It advertised Loom. Anyone have a clue what this version was like? If you mean the version I think you mean, there are a number of screenshots from it on this page. I b...

Re: Loom CD Version "Controversy"

I was wondering, I've heard about people saying that the CD version actually isn't up to part with the original. I've even heard phrases like "incompetent programming" bandied about. I've never played the floppy version of Loom, just the CD, so... what exactly is this all about? Was somet...

Re: 3DO file extraction?

I was just curious--my cousin has a couple of the HE games for 3DO (Putt Putt Joins the Parade and Fatty Bear's Birthday Surprise), and I was wondering if there's anything special I'd need to do to extract the needed resource files to my PC in order to use them in ScummVM? I'll be getting the disks...

I have the same problem It works fine with version "0.3.0b" not with version after anyone have a solution? Thanks My guess is that the only real difference between 0.3.0b in this respect is that in several cases, what used to be just warning messages have been upgraded to fatal errors. Fo...

Ah, "Judgments Rites", i recally playing that a long time ago, was indeed a nice adventure. Yeah, would be nice if we supported it... Ringworld looks nice, too. But then, many other adventures out there do :-) Decoded formats help, but it's only a tiny fraction of the work that needs to b...
