I must have been thinking of the iPhone/iPad version of MI2.

Strange that it comes out on iOS before MacOS X.

Sorry, my mistake regarding M12 SE.

However, to clarify for danja, MI1 SE is definitely available for the Mac from various direct download sites like Game Agent etc.

The special editions of Monkey Island 1 and 2 are both available for the Mac from the Steam online store.

I had the same problem when I upgraded from a 24" to a 27" iMac. Everything used to look great in 1920x1200, but the new resolution of 2560x1440 is just too big for the scaler to look good now. It's blurry and doesn't fill the entire screen. In the meantime, for Mac users, the best interim...

I've been trying to fix this problem for a long time and I just had to give up. There appears to be nothing that can be done with the ScummVM settings to make the Mac version sound exactly like the original. My solution was to play the Mac version of MI2 in MacOS7 or 9 using Basilisk II or Sheepshav...

Changing the resolution from within MacOS doesn't help. For example, if I change the resolution to 1920x1200, I still end up with a smaller game window in the center of the screen surrounded by big black bars on all sides. Same thing with 1600x1200, 1280x1024 etc. I am running the same version of Ma...

I've already got it set to HQ3X, so it appears that the game window just won't get any bigger due to the way ScummVM has been programmed. There seems to be no way to force it to scale to fullscreen like in DOSBox. I might try changing my screen resolution from within MacOS and see how that goes...I ...

Graphics problems in MacOS X

I'm running the latest version of ScummVM on my iMac. I cannot get any games to utilize the full 2560x1440 resolution available on my 27 inch screen, despite having ticked "Fullscreen mode" under the graphics options. I can only get something that looks like a 1920x1200 size portion of the...

Yes, that worked perfectly.

I just extracted the P2_A.iaf from the install .exe file using a Mac program called ZipIt. I then placed the file in the same folder as ITE.

Thanks :D

I'm using an intel Mac so I could try getting it to run in DOS box, but based on the info above it looks like I would get the same problem with the older version of the game.

Thanks for the link. So it looks like this is not a bug but a known problem with some versions of the game. I'm using the English version of the 1994 CD release. I just downloaded the demo of the Wyrmkeep version of the game, and the missing sound sample is there. Looks like I'll have to purchase th...

Inherit the Earth audio problem

I'm using ScummVM 0.11.1 on MacOS X. Inherit the Earth (1994 CD version) works almost perfectly for me in ScummVM, but I experience a strange problem during the introduction sequence with the voice-over narration. For several of the narrative lines, the voice over is incorrect - it replays one of th...
