Full Throttle problems on Nokia N73

Post by Rikky »

I installed DOTT and Sam & Max, both appeared to work just fine. Full throttle, on the other hand, did not work as well. The intro was very choppy (both sound and video), and when I tried to skip it the colors got messed up and the game crashed. Any ideas?

Called out of memory, bad memory alignment and some other things. When you get into the game, FT alone requires around 15 mb memory, add to that ScummVM it self for around 6 mb.. So how memory do you have free? (Should be nice to have this tested on the N70)

The memory details says 38 MB free of the internal memory. However, this is dynamic memory, and I don't know how much the active applications (OS etc.) are using. Even when Full Throttle is running, it says 38 MB free.

Well thats the amount of memory free on your C:.. what I'm talking about is RAM. A N70 has around 30 mb free RAM, a N80 around 18. Not sure about the N73

Just checked it, and the N73 has the same amount as the N80, around 18-20 mb free, like the P910, and thats NOT enough to run FT in to game.

Ok, that's too bad. Thanks anyway. I thought the storage on C: was also used as system memory, but I guess i misunderstood the manual.

I have plans on getting a N73 in a somewhat near future. Will The Dig also have this memory problem, or will it work?

Where can one see how much RAM a phone device have? Nokia doesn't seem to have the info available in their technical specifications. The only thing mentioned there is the storage space; 42MB.
