Re: --no-console not working anymore?

The root cause of this issue was a bug in Windows Terminal itself: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/14416

I just tested with the latest Windows Terminal Preview and this restores the correct behavior.

Re: --no-console not working anymore?

Ah, yes, then MIcrosoft did change how the console is handled in general. This is some sort of recurring theme - the console handling tends to break every few Windows releases. It is not entirely uncommon that this feature breaks, but we'll have to investigate - this issue is always pretty labor int...

Re: --no-console not working anymore?

Do you use the "old" console host or the new Windows Terminal one? For Windows Terminal, indeed it doesn't seem to work for me anymore.

Re: --no-console not working anymore?

I just checked with the upcoming ScummVM 2.7.0.

When I use the --no-console option, the console host window flashes for a brief moment and then closes. However, I am still on the "old" console host because I don't like the new Windows Terminal, so behavior might be different there.

Re: How to view my bug reports (including closed reports)?

You can do this with a custom query, e.g. start with the URL

https://bugs.scummvm.org/query?status=c ... &reporter=

and then add your username after "reporter=".

Re: ISO files

Indeed, ISO images are not directly supported in ScummVM. You are supposed to copy your _original_ media to your machine and run it from there.

There are no plans to add ISO support to ScummVM.

Re: monkey4 game ID not supported

It looks like whatever version is on the snap store (it seems unlikely to me that they'd put a development build there, but I can't say 100% sure), it does not have EMI support as the message states. The Ubuntu Snap store contains two versions: The current stable release (which is installed by defa...

Re: mt32 not working on sierra games

You are most likely missing the MT-32 ROMs you need to dump from a real Roland MT-32 device.

Re: Escape from Monkey Island ctd on loading game

Running ScummVM via WINE is basically one of the most unsupported things ever ;-) I wouldn't be surprised if this is caused by some OpenGL issues. Since there are no RPM builds available, is using FlatPak or Snap an option for you? We offer packages for both distribution platforms on our website: ht...
