Re: Discworld1 PC + PSX Speeches - Possible?

That is not true. I have the PSX version and it uses the on-disc midi music since nearly day one of its support and it sounds great with real midi hardware. What do you mean *real midi* hardware? The Windows general midi sounds very mediocre & the music on the game itself played via the Playsta...

Re: Discworld1 PC + PSX Speeches - Possible?

Hello, I've just discovered that English.smp [394MB] from psx has slightly better speech quality than English.smp [335MB] from PC version. I tried PSX demo and think that speech is much better. There is a lot of background noise in PC version but almost none in PSX version. So I too would like to p...

Official Daily Builds vs Additional Snapshot Builds?

It was commented recently that the Windows snapshots from the Downloads page are built separately from the Buildbot ones and have optimizations enabled for the build. I am curious about what is the difference between the two. What kinds of optimizations exactly are we talking about? Do these optimiz...

Re: ScummVM MT-32 Emulator "Crackles"

Using Win10, Daily 3-17-21 x32, ScummVM's built in MT-32 emulator. The sound crackles. When using my own version of MUNT the sound does not crackle. It seems to be the emulator. I tried 3 different versions of the sound files and the ScummVM MT-32 emulator still crackles. Can you try the Windows sn...

Re: Eye Of The Beholder 1 & 2 AGA Versions?

Thanks for replying. I understand about the legal reasons. I had to ask =). There is another tool that reads the actual game files and runs an automap in a separate window. https://ase.zorbus.net. It is a few extra steps every time you launch the game. I am a bit lazy to mess with it just now. Maybe...

Eye Of The Beholder 1 & 2 AGA Versions?

It has been stated that ScummVM now supports the Amiga versions of EoB 1 & 2. Is there any chance for the AGA fan patched versions? I tried to get ScummVM to run the first one by following the EoB Amiga guide. But it said that this version was unknown to ScummVM. It would be awesome if they coul...

Re: ScummVM shortcut creator

Although a nice idea, you should not assume a default location of scummvm without allowing the user to change it. Many people do not use the default Windows install location for their software. You should add an option to set the default loation where scummvm is installed. I kept wondering why my sh...

Re: Zork Grand Iquisitor (DVD version) x64 Bug

At least someone is looking into it =). Are the x32 & the x64 versions being developed independently of each other? If so, that is a bit concerning, because with the explosion in the amount of data we consume & the push for VR, etc it is feasable that a x128 version Windows may not be far on...

Zork Grand Iquisitor (DVD version) x64 Bug

Using scummvm x64 daily build (or version 2,2) + ZGI dvd version. If you choose edit game>engine>high quality MPEG the game will crash. If you use scummvm x32 the game will not crash & you will get the high quality movies. As far back as 2019 there was a discussion about the scummvm x64 version ...

Return To Zork 1.2 Patch

I have the CD version of Return To Zork which is version 1.1. I also have the 1.2 patch. I found a webpage that basically tells me that I only need to drop RTZCD.DAT into the game directory to patch the game. When I re-add the patched version to scummvm, it asks me to choose between the following ve...

I finally figured out how to apply the subtitle patch for ScummVM. Just take the patch archive & dump only the addons folder into the main game folder. When in game go to options & there will be a new subtitle on/off menu in the upper right corner. All the other files in the patch are for in...

Re: scummvm.ini Where Are My Keybinds>

I wanted to see if I could manually bind the same hotkey function to two different keys - toggle fullscreen - by manually adding an additional line for the same function. I wanted to use both alt+enter & F11. When I opened the scummvm.ini, I only fine one key is mapped. The keybinds as defined ...
