That would be illegal.

In general, in cases like these, we would ask you to donate the original game disks to us, send via (snail) mail.

Hmm, unless they changed the filenames around, all gob2 Amiga versions should work.

What does ScummVM show for that game?
And can you list the files in the directory you point ScummVM to?

thanks for the reply DrMccoy

on goblins 2 amiga/spanish scummvm recognize the game as english version and run the game in english language
originally the spanish version runs with this command
loader lg_sp

on simon the sorcerer amiga/spanish scummvm not recognize the game

I can send you the adf files if you want
why would be illegal? if you are not cracking or distributing
You are supporting games
also all the other 4 languages are supported by scummmvm in both games except spanish

Hmm, could you do that:

http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Repor ... _checksums

For the file "intro.stk"?

Because you would be distributing the game to me, making it an illegal copy.

hi drMccoy

I typed this

md5deep -p 5000 intro.stk | find /i "offset 0-"

and the result was

abc3e786cd78197773954c75815b278b

is that what are you looking for?

Yes. And how big is that file (in bytes, the exact number)?

It should work in the next daily build. You may need to re-add the game to ScummVM, though.

I think you need to wait for the next one (i.e. wait for tomorrow); because that looks more like the fallback detector than the entry I added.

Since the game is currently still detected as a DOS version, no music is to be expected.

thanks drMCcoy !!

I tested the march 31 build and now the game is recognized as amiga/spanish version and is working great
the game works perfect I passed lot of screens without problems
in this game the amiga version runs in 64 colors, the DOS version runs in 256 colors but the amiga version have much better music and different melodies....were composed by different authors
also in scummvm this game runs faster and better than a real amiga or winuae....because the timing is exact and there is no audio-desynchronization like occurs on faster amigas or winuae

btw, what about the simon the sorcerer 1 amiga spanish?
will be supported?
