I've been happily using ScummVM 0.7.1 (and VDMSound FTR) under Win2k for some time but, with some excellent games (e.g. Callahan's Crosstime Saloon) unplayable or (e.g. The Feeble Files) impossible to run (even with compatibility fixes), the time has come to set up a dedicated (Win95 OSR2) legacy gaming PC (spec. on request as hopefully irrelevant). OK so far but two remaining issues are insufficient conventional RAM for half a dozen games (needing DOS Mode tweaks) and ScummVM ...
Now, according to the FAQ, ScummVM has been tested under Win95 but I assume not lately because, though 0.7.1 installs without error, it crashes (complaining about a missing user32.dll GetAncestor export) as soon as run. Now, according to M$ (ref. 1), GetAncestor first appeared in Win98/NT4SP4; which begs a few questions:








* Beneath a Steel Sky (CD)
* Day of the Tentacle (CD)
* Flight of the Amazon Queen (talkie)
* Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (CD)
* Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
* Loom (CD)
* Maniac Mansion (original)
* Sam & Max Hit the Road (CD)
* Simon the Sorcerer 1 (talkie)
* Simon the Sorcerer 2 (talkie)
Cheers,
RG
