Re: A suggestion for SCUMMVM (Dreamweb)

It's the scene with the assassination of the guy having sex with the woman. In the censored version, she's wearing a bra and he's wearing boxers... which makes zero sense considering that they were both doing the funky monkey and the cut especially ruins the gag of the fella quickly grabbing a pillo...

Re: A suggestion for SCUMMVM (Dreamweb)

Perhaps there's a CD version which isn't readily available on the web (considering that the game is freeware), I need to do some testing, I guess. I'm a Brit myself and I think that I have a copy of the game somewhere, so perhaps I ought to try ripping the CD data directly.

A suggestion for SCUMMVM (Dreamweb)

I was wondering whether it would be possible to take the uncensored David Crane scene from the floppy disk version of Dreamweb and implement it into the censored CD version. It kinda sucks that the best scene in the game has been butchered (and in doing so, made non-sensible) in an otherwise definit...

Re: Disabling Subtites in KQ VII

Could you test if the suggested tentative "solution" works for you? From the Game Options -> Audio tab (overriding global audio settings) set Audio to "Subtitles", click OK, then return to the Audio tab, set Audio to "Speech" and click OK again. And finally launch the ...

Disabling Subtites in KQ VII

Hi, I would care to disable the subtitles in King's Quest VII, but I can't find a way to do so within the latest stable release of ScummVM. Selecting voice only under the audio tab of the game's options does nothing and I've even tried creating a custom batch file to launch the game, yet the subtitl...

Re: Help with shaders

Just out of pure interest, what are the general values for glow? For example, the crt-royale shader has a silly amount of glow, but say that one wished to decrease that glow, what are the values which one would alter? So, as an example; crt-royale; lots of glow. The values to lower that glow are (in...

Re: Help with shaders

Oh my, that works! Thank you so much! Your explanation was the key I needed in understanding exactly how the shaders work. I didn't realise that there was an index file which references separate shader files. It all makes sense now. Thank you, you are a star :D EDIT: For anyone whom may stumble upon...

Help with shaders

Hi, I've only just discovered the wonderful world of using shaders with ScummVM. However, I am tearing my hair out with one particular issue; out of all of the shaders which I've tried, crt-lottes-multipass is by far the best looking of the bunch when playing VGA adventure games. The only problem is...

Re: Disabling text-to-speech

That's a bit of a pity, as there are (sparingly used) sound effects and music tracks within the game. The weird thing is that the ScummVM Wiki states the following... "No speech support (because they are terrible)" EDIT: Considering that the above quote came from the ScummVM Wiki and said ...

Disabling text-to-speech

Is there any way to disable the text-to-speech within Mortville Manor? It sounds horrible and I would much rather just have the text. I've tried selecting just the subtitles (no speech) under the game options and text-to-speech is disabled under General Options.

Thank you.

World/Swords of Xeen - Batch file issue

Hi, I'm attempting to get both World of Xeen and Swords of Xeen running via batch files (as I am compiling a LaunchBox games collection which incorporates ScummVM). I have been using this method for all of my ScummVM games with no issues. However, for some reason, the method is not working for the t...

Re: Unable to save my game in ScummVM

Thank you for the advice. I was able to solve the issue by running ScummVM as admin. Whilst I'm here I may as well ask if there's a known issue with exiting to the right in the cemetery in Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers? I'm currently doing a let's play of the game for my stream and it took me ...
