So, I just finished getting the PRGs for all versions of NES Maniac Mansion & then extracting the LFL files. Everything is working great on the latest development snapshot. One issue is that I couldn't get the extract_mm_nes tool to extract the FLFs from the "Maniac Mansion (USA) (Beta)" PRG file. It just spits out this error message:
"Fatal Error : ROM contents not recognized (DE0C29A9)"
Is the PRG from the NES beta not supported?

Re: Question about the NES Maniac Mansion beta
The beta is not supported because it was never officially released.

Simply because that would mean that if you play the game, you obtained it illegally. AFAIK, only one copy of the game exists in the world.

Ok, yeah that makes total sense. I did have another slightly related question: when playing the games in ScummVM, it skips over the game logo screen, LucasFilm Games logo and it goes straight to "Twenty Years Ago Today ...". Is there any way to enable those first 2 logo screens? Or, is this a result of extracting the PRG from the rom?

According to the TODO list on the wiki, those images aren't yet enabled in ScummVM.eisnerguy1 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 30, 2020 11:07 pmIs there any way to enable those first 2 logo screens? Or, is this a result of extracting the PRG from the rom?

Thanks for clearing that up. I really need to start looking at the wiki more often.MapleSyrup wrote: ↑Wed Sep 02, 2020 9:47 pmAccording to the TODO list on the wiki, those images aren't yet enabled in ScummVM.eisnerguy1 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 30, 2020 11:07 pmIs there any way to enable those first 2 logo screens?
