Another option that can be useful to avoid closing ScummVM by mistake is the "Ask for confirmation on exit" in the GUI tab of the Global Options.

You can change or remove shortcuts in the Keymap tab of the Global Options and Game Options. See https://docs.scummvm.org/en/v2.9.0/sett ... ymaps.html

This is a known bug and unfortunately fluidsynth is indeed not working in the 2.9.0 release. But the good news is that it is already fixed, so this should be working in the next release.

There is no such thing, because ScummVM is not an emulator . So we cannot just speed up the cycles of an emulated CPU to speed up games, as is possible with emulators. Since we reimplement the game executables, we can in some cases deviate from the original behaviour, such as implement skip in place...

In my experience on a small handheld device (5.4 inch diagonal) toochscreen works well with LucasArts games. Those games are at a 320x200 pixel resolution, which means that you usually don't need to be very precise. Some other game with pixel hunting can be more difficult to play on a touch screen, ...

Or you can add the output_rate=RATE setting manually in the scummvm.ini config file. The RATE is in Hz, so for example 22050. The option is documented here: https://docs.scummvm.org/en/v2.9.0/advanced_topics/configuration_file.html#configuration-keys And you have a good memory. There indeed was an o...

Unfortunately you cannot. This is a known issue: https://bugs.scummvm.org/ticket/13480

It is actually 320x200. You can see this when you start the game. User picked target 'sq2vga' (engine ID 'ags', game ID 'sq2vga')...

If I understand properly your message, you want to use one config file for the global settings, and one config file for each game with only the game settings? I don't think there is any way in scummvm to use two config files and thus make this work. The -c "scummvm.ini" command line option...

To clarify, the option to toggle smoothing is not in the ScummVM launcher or Main Menu, but it is in the game Mac menu (shown at the top of the window while playing a Mac SCUMM game). So it should be available even when launching games from the command line. See the attached image. You can also add ...

The "Improved graphics support for Macinthosh MI1, MI2 and Fate of Atlantis" indeed includes implementation of the EPX filter used in the original interpreter. But as in the original, it can be turned off. The improvement also include implementing the Mac menu, and in particular the "...

Using your own convention for naming the game domain (the string between brackets in the config file) is fine, as long as they remain unique. The warning does affect the functionality of ScummVM since it indicates that part of your config file is ignored and not all games defined in it will be liste...

The issue is that I am using ScummVM on an external hard drive. I have a text file titled 'portable' within the root directory and am launching games via batch files (through Launchbox). The thing is; considering that I accidentally deleted the install of ScummVM, how did the program remember my in...
