In case anyone is interested, the OpenSludge engine has now finally been ported to the Mac by Trumgottist. :D The engine runs on OpenGL now, is hence both open source an cross-platform, has a free editor/studio (albeit not yet fully ported) AND even has finished games, as well as a small community c...

I couldn't find your question in the archives. Send me a personal message or answer to mine, maybe I can help you.

IMHO, if you really want to benefit open source gaming, you maybe shouldn't use an open source engine as the first step, but provide some free content instead: Make a gripping prototype game in AGS and open source it with all graphics and resources, to allow other people to reimplement the game for ...

I'm trying to have answers from the ScummC developpers but for instance nothing...I was firmly intentioned to use it but if noone helps is gonna be hard to use it. There aren't any ScummC developers here. You have to write your questions to the ScummC mailing list: https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/scu...

Half of the puzzle is solved: in a two-sentence response, the talkStart anim is only started once when running the original games. I don't know why, though. :? It could be a different scripting of the wait calls. In the ScummC code, the two sentences were scripted as two separate actorTalk() calls w...

I still couldn't find out anything. :? Thanks a lot for your reply, anyway! In the ScummC scripts again, nothing fancy is being done. The walk and talk scripts look like this: walkActorTo(VAR_EGO,VAR_VIRT_MOUSE_X,VAR_VIRT_MOUSE_Y); waitForActor(VAR_EGO); ... egoSay&am...

Can someone help me with Scumm scripts? I am trying to script a Scumm game in ScummC, but I am having troubles organizing 2 parallel scripts that both manipulate the ego actor's animation. :( In detail, the problem is as follows: If the ego actor is talking, and the user then issues a new walk comma...

I'd advice you to not take the GobEngine scripts. They are pretty...confusing/complex. :P If you're just looking for some scripts example, then Gob engine is not the best choice. It used to be one of the smallest engines when it supported just Gobliiins (1st in the series), but now it became one of...

As for the gob games, most of the game logic is in the scripts. The SCRIPTS!!! That's the word I was looking for! Yes, I'm after the scripts! :P My goal is to be able to read and understand several sample scripts. I don't care too much for the bytecode format itself, I just want to understand the l...

Hi, everyone. Does anyone know if there is some developer documentation available for the Gob engine or the Gob data files? Somewhere in the forums it said that it's the smallest engine in ScummVM, and that it was originally researched by Ivan Dubrov, but I haven't found more information. I looked a...
