Please, please, help with prerelease testing

Post by sev »

Dear users,

as you already know, we're pretty close to 0.9.0. Unfortunatly with current rate of testing I will be forced to postpone the release. If you really want to help the project, please, please, test these important targets:
  • Zak McCracken v1
  • Zak McCracken v2
  • Indy3 EGA
  • Indy3 VGA
  • Gobliiins EGA
  • Inherit the Earth
In case above games will not be tested by next Wednesday, i.e. June 21st, I will have nothing but postpone the release for at least a week which I don't really want to do.

I can test Inherit the Earth - I've got the CD talkie version, and I think I've still got the floppy version somewhere in storage that I can dig out and test as well.

I could test the German DOS CD version of Inherit the Earth, but that can take some time, though. I'll try to test it this weekend.

And any users who have those games which still need testing and who are reading this: Please test them! I'm eager to download a stable 0.9.0 release from ScummVM, so I'm helping to make that possible by testing. If you also want to have a new stable release, then help testing!

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis is still not tested!

Volunteers, please test it, as it needs to be tested for the release.

edit:
it might be a good idea for mutiple people to test atlantis as there isnt a whole lot of time left and there are 3 path to beat the game. ill test the team path as thats the only one i know off by heart.

no he was referring to the next game in the series indiana jones and the fate of atlantis (indy 4). i have completed the team path and eriktorbjorn has done the wits path. I am going to attempt the fists path tonight but i encourage anyone else who has this game to give it a shot as i have never been very good at the fighting in Indy4

Last time I played that path, I think I used the zero key ("sucker punch") rather extensively. :)

I can try the fists path. The "sucker punch" works very effectively.

Losers. :P

No wonder no-one can provide me with an IQPOINTS file with 1000 points.

Anyone who ever reached that? I managed 977points, fighting like a cow.
Err, like a pro! :wink:

I am bad at fighting in Indy 3 and 4. In the Last Crusade I couldn't stand Castle Brunwald. I try to fight as little as possible.
