I managed to fix this by retargeting the scummvm project against Windows SDK 8.1 (instead of the latest 10.x). Perhaps this info saves other people some time.

How did you manage to get past this problem? I got this since I started using VS2019 Error C2338 Windows headers require the default packing option. Changing this can lead to memory corruption. This diagnostic can be disabled by building with WINDOWS_IGNORE_PACKING_MISMATCH defined. (compiling sourc...

Yes, it's bundled with ScummVM 1.9.0.2 (Oct 28 2016 23:58:50)

In case you missed it, Maniac Mansion is has made it's way to Steam and currently on sale. If you buy it, you get both the DOS V1 and V2 version. It doesn't have the index file integrated in the .exe file so it will work with your favourite version of ScummVM out of the box. And GOG is having a Indy...

This page contains additional stuff to help with testing the fix for this bug. Feedback still very much appreciated.

Correct, it's a script bug. But with ScummVM we can fix those too.

I have opened a pull request to fix this bug. Anyone willing to give it a try?

There are already some very good open source alternatives for Civ 2. Check out FreeCiv or C-evo.

The demo can be found here, and I opened pull request 803 to recognize the demo properly.

Nice find! Thanks for sharing!

I noticed that a lot of the HES games are marked "English (US)" and also some "English (GB)" instead of just plain English. After some googling I did found something about "SPY Fox in: Dry Cereal" being dubbed twice: http://asliceofhe.tumblr.com/post/10024323016/i-may-h...

You're right. The Dig is v7 and not encrypted. The others do use encryption (if you can call XOR an encryption method).

In Steam the index files have the original "encryption" (XOR 0x69), so it's likely that searching for RNAM in the Direct2Drive versions won't give you anything.

I think kyra.dat is included in the scummvm executable. So you do need it, but it's already there.
