Just remember even if the runtime engine goes completely open source, there have been a *lot* of versions of the AGS runtime over the years, and each version has been incompatible with the others. I agree with you. But : - The 2 "major" versions (that have been used for most amazing games...

create_project exists only in the repository

Alright, that explains a lot.

What is your opinion on the "missing" classes and files in the 1.2.1 source code? It's probably me who's making a mistake, but I can't spot it.

Well I really don't understand what's going on, since I downloaded ScummVM 1.2.1 source .zip from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/scummvm/scummvm-1.2.1.zip?download and still there seems plenty of files and/or class declarations missing. For example, where is Graphics::CoktelDecoder ? That's just...

Are you sure??? I can only find a tool for MSVC.

It's very likely that it goes entirely open source (at the moment only the Editor has been open-sourced, but the open-sourcing of the Run-time Engine seems to be imminent).

As for the license... Wait and see!

There's something I don't understand : I've downloaded the latest stable version of the sources (not the nightly build). However, when I build the projects, it complains that agi_v2.cpp is missing, the direct consequence beeing that the final linking fails because agi_v2.o does not exist. What's goi...

Hi! The wiki does not mention Code::Blocks (only MinGW), and when I open dists/codeblocks/scummvm.workspace, I find that it was created for an older version of Code::Blocks. Also, at Build time, it fails to find common/*.h (that's no big deal but I'm surprised it doesn't find it by itself). So, I'm ...

Your answers are very helpfull. Thanks a lot. The Advanced Game Detector tip is essential, because I remember that part caused me trouble in the past. thanks a lot for that. I'll have a look at the small engines. About the data structures present in /common/ : There semt to be everything one needs w...

I'll just prentend I didn't read that. Unless you can provide the entire UML diagrams and dependencies of the ScummVM projects, you'll probably agree with me that it'll be hard for me to see how much each of the engines relies on ScummVM's core, and what is the approach and peculiarities of each of ...

The code needs heavy modifications to be usable. If you're willing to refactor it, feel free to, but I still believe that rewriting it from scratch is the best solution. Well, you know what I mean. Another update: I got sentence files working, and some initial work done on the game's video files. S...

Hi, I've got a general question. Which one(s), in your opinion, is (are) the ScummVM engine(s) that implement basic Point-n-click features and/or 2D game engine features in the "most natural" manner? Those features include, but are not limited to: cinematic start/stop (and all associated t...

Here is what I suggest : You let it as it is, and I'll refactor the code to make it better looking (with comments, structure, naming conventions, etc.)
We'll see the rest later.

What do you think?

Er... well... The code in that "tech demo" is, to put it nicely, a bit of a mess. It's in C, with inconsistent coding styles. The code is both in English and French (e.g. ReadSequence() - English and ReadPal() - French). Also, there are a lot of seemingly unrelated functions put together,...

Update: I've created a dummy engine (...) If you need access to the SVN repo for this engine, ask sev. Alright! That's really cool. I'll defo ask the access. I don't know who's sev but I guess I'll find out pretty quickly. I rewrote the HSQ decompressor, with the help of wjp. Really? I don't rememb...

Ah OK, I didn't get it that it was an unofficial, standalone sequel -- I thought it was a ScummVM engine for Broken Sword 2.
