List of fan made ScummVM (or original) game enhancements

[kerb]

Since I've recently stumbled upon some I didn't know about I thought I'd just make a list of the ones I've found in various states of completion, let me know if I missed any! A couple of these rely on forks of ResidualVM or the discontinued ScummVMExt fork.

• Might and Magic Book One (included in ScummVM): ScummVM provides the ability to play the game both the way the original looked, as well as a special enhanced mode that plays the game with enhanced graphics and the user interface from the later Xeen games.

• Ultima VI (included in ScummVM): Enhanced mode allowing for full screen world view rather than the small window the original has, container gimps, and a bunch of other enhancements.

I wanted to link to Myles Johnston's ScummVMExt/ScummVMX fork with support for HD graphics on SCI games, but that repo and various tools have been deleted (https://web.archive.org/web/20230418131 ... scummvmext) so most of what I could still find is just videos of various tests on his youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/@uMiLO83 as well as this Colonel's Bequest HD mod https://playernone.blogspot.com/2021/02 ... n-mod.html by a fan.

This is the only download I could find of ScummVMExt, https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/dl2xd6ls ... 09-x64.zip (I don't know what the latest version was, archive.org's github snapshot only shows ScummVMExt v1.1.179b from 09/08/21)

There was a highly controversial thing for Space Quest IV. You might have to dig for it.

There's also:
- Might and Magic Book One: It provides an optional enhanced mode bringing in the user interface of World of Xeen (Xeen data files required) and the fan enhanced graphics pack.

- Ultima VI: Offers enhanced mode allowing for full screen world view rather than the small window the original has, container gimps, and a bunch of other enhancements.

- Blade Runner: enhanced mode restoring cut content

I haven't tried it myself, but The Fat Man and Team Fat have released some of the Humongous Entertainment soundtracks on Bandcamp, and they supposedly contain ScummVM compatible versions too: https://thefatmanandteamfat.bandcamp.com/

I probably just missed them. (I guess I scanned it for the individual game names, not the composer.)

[Bobbin]

Nothing to add, just a thank you for this list!

Thanks! I've added the enhancements that are included in ScummVM to the list, and the Space Quest IV New Rising Sun patch + instructions.
