It only works with the special widescreen build of Residual VM. You can download all necessary files from this topic or from website which also has instructions. The mod branch hasn't been merged with the master nor Scumm.

Hello, After a 5 yrs of no updates (sorry about that) I can say: Years 1 & 2 are 90% complete. There are 120 rooms that are now in widescreen Posting new widescreen pack by the end of the month Here is a puzzle gameplay preview (~30min of widescreen gameplay): https://youtube.com/playlist?list=P...

Cervian seems to have figured it out but never seemed to have explained it, but I'm sure you understand what they each mean. Not really, it was a long time ago and if it isn't documented in the forum then... Do you have access to kavehth's zmb2obj release build and GrimEdi? His links to them in the...

New user here, so please excuse my lack of familiarity. Hi, welcome. How can I help out? If you need more scenes expanded, I can give it a shot. There are a couple of forum topics that explain the data files, their extraction, z-buffer images and tools for creating 3D scenes from them: https://foru...

Wow, 5 yrs later and I still have the whole El Marrow sitting on 70% completion. The whole thing kinda stopped when DF released the remaster. I am gonna finish those backgrounds by the end of february and upload them so at least Year 1 is partialy Widescreen. As for your question, visit http://www.g...

And another problem I see in the grim fandango animated backgrounds is the rigidity of the animation, they are made by image frames in some 2D right? It would be possible to add more frames so she could get smoother? It would require repacking LAB files. Each animation can be viewed as an image usi...

Cool, thanks for the info, but what is necessary to remove it? Original files :) It would be 2 sec job to re-export scenes in high-res & widescreen & full 32-bit colours... but not even DoubleFine has all the source files. Or at least they said so in first "Re-making GF" episode o...

An update: - I'm not dead, although 2 weeks ago I got stress induced allergy to pollen - Finally got the mod to work, my mistake of already having an several existing residual apps installed besides the mod - Noticed that add-ons don't stretch perfectly, they start ok at the top but they stretch ver...

Maybe you could explain EXACTLY what you're doing and we might be able to spot the problem? Well it should be easy, plug n play, right? But it just doesnt work. I downloaded all of Kavehths mods (480, 1080, noScale) on Win XP. Started the 480 version, added Grim directory which contains "wides...
