Re: "Inca II" in ScummVM

It seems that my version of "Inca II" is not recognized by ScummVM... I have the US floppy box version 1.0 dated 18.03.1994. Adding a detection entry should be simple enough, I guess... but the game isn't really supported. (From what I understand, there's a bunch of hard-coded stuff in th...

It could so easily have become over-reliant on detailed knowledge of American history... and I suppo...

Re: Loom & Indy3 PC EGA, What's the difference between versions A, B & C?

Yeah, I wonder if all the translation teams had access to the full scripts with permission to adapt them, or just the raw text without much context. I guess it probably varied. Recently someone pointed me to this article, about a cancelled Swedish version of The Secret of Monkey Island: https://spe...

Re: Aspect Ratio Correction on FM Towns Games

When I load Loom, this setting disappears from the list of options. I presumed it was specifically disabled for being buggy or non-functional with Loom. So I was wondering why that is the case and how long it may be before Loom becomes compatible with the pixel cropped format. I don't think anythin...

Re: Aspect Ratio Correction on FM Towns Games

Is there an update or estimate on how soon compatibility with Loom will make it it into the release build / master source code? I notice that compatibility with the other FM Towns LucasArts games made it across. I can see from this thread there are some lingering minor issues, which is fully unders...

Re: Blade Runner - Original SCUMMVM version back up on GOG.

That’s a relief. The “remastered” version appears to have been widely panned. Looks like it was a rush-job to cash in on the 25th anniversary of the original release. Well, this version has been in the works for a long time. But I still don't understand why they decided to release it in this state....

Re: No text in Escape from Monkey Island (2.7.0git)

Apparently it affects Grim Fandango too. Fortunately 2.6 seems unaffected.

That one's partially working, but I haven't heard of anyone working to improve it. See https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Illusions

Re: No text in Escape from Monkey Island (2.7.0git)

I can confirm this issue with current development build for 2.7.0git and a local build from master HEAD. This is possibly a regression(?) since checking with an older daily build (from June 20, 2022) the text displays correctly. It works for me with the "OpenGL" renderer. Only "OpenG...

Re: Steamdeck ScummVM required?

Also, the Steam versions of Loom, The Dig, Indy Last Crusade, and Indy Fate of Atlantis use an official in-house Windows version of the SCUMM interpreter (not ScummVM) that upscales the graphics with a filter and you can't turn it off. If you like the chunky pixels, I recommend the Flatpacks. Accor...

Sorry, I have no idea. I seem to recall that with the issue that was fixed, leaving and re-entering the room would unfreeze them though. (I could be wrong about that.)

TinyGL is a software implementation of (a subset of) OpenGL, so it doesn't do hardware acceleration..

I don't know what the shaders are used for, so I look forward to someone else answering that one.

Re: Aspect Ratio Correction on FM Towns Games

I'm following this thread with interest as I hope we one day through hacking will have a prefect version of Loom. A perfect hack would have voiceover and music, plus all removed or censored text and graphics along with this ratio hack. That would mean re-recording the whole thing, since the voiceov...

Which is the oldest version with the least level of abstractions and object orientation that is stable and feature complete enough to run Monkey Island 1?
