The german inherit the earth disc-version works fine, but the CD Version (500mb!) doesnt work for me.
What do i have to do? Install the game on my card? Or copy the full cd to my card?

What do you mean by "doesn't work"? Does ScummVM throw an error? Could you list the files of your CD version, including their sizes?

That's the original "Dreamers Guild" release of the game. Does it work correctly on your PC, with the Windows version of ScummVM? (it should work)

That's very strange, it's an issue with the DS port then, perhaps you should file a bug report about it

How long did you wait for it to start? Inherit the Earth can take a while.

LOL after 8 minutes waiting time it works.
The Sound is terrible. I dont want to play it, its slow, too. But every other Game works perfect in german language.

For me, ITE English version takes about 10 seconds to load. Although the GBAMP I use is faster than most SD-style card readers. I'm not sure why the German version would be so much longer.

Well, it must be a problem specific to the German version then. Unfortunately, I only have the English version.

I notice that the nds files in the newly released scummvm-0.11.1-ds.zip, the modified dates for the .nds files are less recent than in 0.11.1beta2 (and the contents don't match). Which version should we use? Thanks.

ScummVM DS is an official port now! Latest stable from the Source Forge project page should always be the latest stable, right?
Contents probably just differ because the inofficial b2 was built by agentq themself after 0.11.1 was committed.
I've encountered some graphic bugs in simon1-dos (one line goes black, sort of). I'll try and see if they're reproducable...

The final 0.11.1 and 0.11.1 beta2 are built from identical sources. I only built beta2 because I thought some members of the ScummVM team might object to me releasing 0.11.1 early. So yes, 0.11.1 beta2 has a later date but you should use the final 0.11.1, as it is the same.
