Hi there! Love the engine, always has. I'm just about to go through some of the old games on my mobile phone, but Scummvm doesn't seem to like me very much. The phone is a HTC Wizard/Qtek 9100, running the games of the SD card. The problem is, that the program jerks out what seems randomly, but most...

Yeah, sure. Didn't know anyone was interested in these anymore.

Surprise and enjoy!

I don't have enough cash for Photoshop, I'm poor; so I'll stick with opensourced programs.

Didn't the originals tear during scrolling as well? I think it's charming.

I was talking about the actual game - I don't believe there's a way to get an abrupt end to the game (Monkey Island) if you used an item at the wrong place; except for when you have to use three cups of grog to release Otis from the jail. But perhaps they included another set of cups if you used up ...

Does it really matter if you messed up the save? I mean, the greatest thing with Monkey Island is that you cannot mess up totally so that you have to restart the game as you could in Zak and Maniac Mansion?
Or am I wrong? Perhaps the part with the grog, come to think of it...

The Amiga soundtracks (at least on the lucasarts-games) are candy to the ear, but why Amiga when you can MT-32?

Weird.
Would be nice to know which latest version ran Grim without issues, I haven't played through that one yet. My computer broke down when I owned it last time, and I sold almost all my games.

Grab Wine instead - it's free (in both terms)!

In other news, as requested; an Escape From Monkey Island icon as well as Grim Fandango - so now I'm complete with one interprenter at least!

Well, I think there's a way; it's called Cedega - a Direct3D-fork of Wine. Seems to work fine in Linux. I'll see what I can do.
Perhaps I'll do a Grim Fandango icon for when GrimE is stable? Perhaps Monkey 4 will be supported later on as well.

Just whipped up an alternative icon for Space Quest, from the Atari version. Nice.

Anyone fancy Space Quest 1 and 2? There's some icons for ya!

Spacetroll, I've made the Black Cauldron icon you wanted. As we say in Sweden, hope it tastes good for ya!

Can some one explain to me how i go about doing this. What is the file i need to create to allow scummvm to be loaded with a game already in place. I am using ubuntu 7.04. Well, you don't need any file to start the game; just a command. scummvm [GAMETAG] should do it. I.e., Indiana Jones and The Fa...
