Hi, and is this possible

Post by Chris-red »

Hi all have been using scummvm since about 0.6 (I think). I love Monkey Island, Broken Sword and Full Throttle.

I was wondering if it is possible to use the features of scummvm without installing in on a windows machine. I have a very dull job working nights on a helpdesk (Average 2 calls in a 8 hour shift) I think some PAC games would be perfect to while away the hours but cannot install Scummvm because of admin restrictions. Anyone know a way around this?

Cheers

Chris.

ScummVM certainly doesn't need to be installed. Have a look here, this might help you (not the link at the top though, have a read of the comments):

If you're talking about the Windows version, you can get ScummVM in a zip file without an installer from the downloads page

indeed, but not SVN or prerelease (which is strange as I would expect exactly the opposite)
