I bought several games from eBay that are compatible with ScummVM. I uploaded the game files to Dropbox, and I connected it to the ScummVM app. When I tap the download game files button, I don't see any directories. Am I doing something wrong? The game files are in folders. Did I name the folders wr...

I got a refund from the eBay seller. They were willing to do it, which was very nice of them.

You’re so right about that, and it’s entirely my fault. I should have looked more closely at the pictures that the seller included in his listing. I checked the original listing, and the pictures clearly show 2 red discs. 1 of them says Humongous Entertainment on it, and the other one says Infograme...

The one that I ordered is from 1998. Both discs are red, and they're labeled Disc 1 and Disc 2. I ordered another one from 2000 that has the yellow disc and the red disc.

I ordered Blue's Birthday Adventure from eBay, and both Disc 1 and Disc 2 are being detected as Blue's Birthday Adventure (Red/English). Is there a way to make a distinction between the two, besides starting both entries to find out which is which?

I ordered Max and the Secret Formula and Max and Marie Go Shopping from eBay. ScummVM detects them as Director 4 games. When I try to run them, it says the CD-ROM cannot be found. I have the CD in the Blu-ray drive of my laptop, and my laptop is able to read it and recognize it. Any suggestions?

Sure. So when I add a game that ScummVM detects as an unknown variant, it gives me a bug report, and there are a few options on the bottom. There's a report game button, a copy to clipboard button, a cancel button, and an add anyway button. When I click the report game button, it takes me to a webpa...

I understand that games will not work fully with Director 5. I read and reread the announcement from December 14. I also read the directions for the Issue Tracker, and I’m aware that it’s only for games that are currently supported. The report game button in ScummVM takes me to a forbidden page, so ...

It would be nice if I could just skip the sign in part, and use the ScummVM save states instead. Another option would be that ScummVM autofills the sign in sheet with default user names, or there could be a prompt from ScummVM that asks the player to type in a name, word, or phrase. Then ScummVM wou...

I have a demo on the Fisher-Price Great Adventures Pirate Ship CD that I ordered on eBay. ScummVM detected Math Blaster Jr as an unknown game variant. The game in 'MBJRWIN\' seems to be an unknown game variant. Please report the following data to the ScummVM team at https://bugs.scummvm.org/ along w...

I ordered Candyland Adventure from eBay. The CD insert says it's copyright year 1996. ScummVM can't detect it. I also ordered a CD called Fun Pack 3 Games in One! that includes Mr. Potato Head Saves Veggie Valley, Play-Doh Creations, and Playskool Puzzles. The CD insert says it's copyright year 1997...

I've tried the two demos from the ScummVM site with the 2.8.0pre build (same as yours). The demos are non-interactive. The first one is detected and runs ok. The second one has some issues if it's interrupted by a mouse click, and at some point throws an error for missing a video file. The second d...

I found a Wikipedia article that talks about the development of the Madeline games. It says that Madeline and the Magnificent Puppet Show runs on an existing engine, but they don’t specify it. They reference a specific book called Interactive Publishers Handbook by Paul Palumbo and John Kalb that wa...

I have ScummVM 2.8.0pre (Dec 16 2023 11:15:53) installed, and I’m trying to play Madeline and the Magnificent Puppet Show. Wikipedia says it came out in 1995. I got a brand new copy from eBay, and it’s from Encore Software, copyright 2004. I put the CD in the CD drive of my laptop, and ScummVM says ...
