Re: Croustibat - English translation
That is indeed very interesting! I remember seeing those names on the files while messing with them on a hex editor but I've always wrongly assumed those were leftovers from Gobliins 2 which by the way I've never played, so yeah. Since those are French names (Josiane, Irma and Veronique are female n...

Re: Croustibat - English translation
Hey, you're welcome denzquix! I'm glad to help others enjoy this game the same way I've been experiencing it since 1995! Wow, that is very interesting, I didn't know about that! Yeah, I've never found a way to make the boy eat the fish sticks and win, and I'm pretty sure that I've tried to do that e...

Re: Croustibat - English translation
I've ended up playing the rest of the game today! So here is the rest: --- THIRD LEVEL - Change "SADDLEBAG" to " SADDLE BAG " since it's more commonly used as two words, besides being clearer to read. - Shorten "BICYCLE PUMP" to " BIKE PUMP " since I feel it's...

Re: Croustibat - English translation
I am a native Portuguese speaker and I've known this game since I was a kid. I have been playing Denzquix's English translation side to side with the original. This translation is a great start but has some issues! So here are my proposed corrections: --- INTRO, USER INTERFACE AND NAMES First screen...

Re: Croustibat - English translation
Hey guys, I've only have seen these replies now. My question is, after extracting the files, is there any way to rebuild the .STK file again including the modified .TOT files?

Re: Croustibat - English translation
Is there any interest in this? I've been playing this short game since I was a little kid, I know all the dialogs, items, actions and could provide a proper english translation, however I do not have enough skills on the technical side of things. I don't know how ScummVM works, but maybe a patch cou...

Thank you very much for your reply. Apparently I misread it completely, I stand corrected and apologize for my incorrect assumptions. I confirm that the sound effects are now playing, although I've noticed a minor issue. For example in a game of Crazy Eights when an 8 is drawn and the suit is change...

Sadly, reporting this problem feels like talking to a wall, no one seems to be reading what I've been writing over and over again. The ticket that I opened months ago at the bug tracker was closed, once again very likely due to improper testing with the same pirate copy that has the corrupt audio fi...

I guess that the zero replies means that this isn't as simple as I first thought. I have the free time and will to translate it (it would take about a week) but unfortunately I don't have enough technical knowledge to do it. It's a shame, i'd really like to see this game in English for everyone to e...

Croustibat - English translation
I'd love to translate Coktel Vision's Croustibat from Portuguese to English and see it finally officially supported in ScummVM. However I don't know where to start, could somebody please help me and point me in the right direction? I tried extracting the game's files, editing and repackaging them wi...

Hoyle 4's missing sounds - Result of improper testing?
As I reported in the bug tracker, The sound effects from Hoyle Classic Card Games are missing in ScummVM: https://bugs.scummvm.org/ticket/10412 And as snover commented, the sound effects were disabled years ago because "hoyle4 has garbled audio data". Now, I believe this was due to imprope...

That is a very good question and I'm not surprised that no one has a positive answer to it because there isn't any. This is an excellent example of why I respectfully disagree with the ScummVM developers decision to support only those very specific file formats, which is almost like only supporting ...
