Hints for basically all old adventure(and others, but really, who cares :D ) games can be found there. If i didnt have this i probably would have been very stuck in grim fandango. That's exactly what I'm using it for at the moment. I don't want the whole game spoiled just a push in the right direct...

Well, I tested the Sword1 compression and it seems to have worked perfectly. It squeezed it from 1.07 GB down to 300MB which is great. I'll test BS2 when I have time unless someone else beats me to it. One question - do I lose any audio quality by having it at such a low bps or is that the way it wa...

Re: sorry

I really didn't check if ScummVM understands that mish-mash but I assume you're right and I mistaken. But I like to have everything in order so I made it look tidy. Me too don't have Full Throttle directories DATA and VIDEO under RESOURCE dir. There's no RESOURCE directory. Maybe version difference...

To quote the README file: Please note that compress_sword2 will only work with the four speech/music files in Broken Sword 2. It will not work with any of the other *.clu files, nor will it work with the speech files from Broken Sword 1. Broken Sword 1 and 2 use different compression methods. The f...

Do I place the contents of both CDs into the folder (after renaming the speech and music files) or do I do them one at a time?

Also I can't get Full Throttle to compress either, it seems to expect all the SAN files to be in the root directory but they're actually in the VIDEO and DATA subdirectories.

It works! You're my hero bgbennyboy, I'd have thought there'd be more interest for a tool like this.

Great tool, I was looking for something just like this. I'm compressing Broken Sword 2 at the moment so I'll let you know if it works. One question - Can I use the BS2 tool to compress BS1 files? I guess it should work since they are the same kind of files.

Has anyone tried this with the Broken Sword games yet? I tried it out but it didn't seem to work. All I really need to compress are the big speech files.

I'm pretty sure what you're looking for is VDMSound, ScummVM is an adventure game interpreter and doesn't do anything for games that aren't adventures.
