Nokia 9300 / S80
Hi,
as requested on http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/SymbianOS_S80 a short note about the compatibility: ScummVM works on my Nokia 9300, with various SCUMM games tested so far.
However, I found the following problems:
- Sound: The sound does work, but only after switching to Joystick mode and then back to CURSOR mode. It's possible to switch back to Joystick mode then, but:
- Joystick mode: This mode doesn't really work. I would have expected that the Joystick mode in ScummVM works similar to the one in the integrated browser. In ScummVM, I have to start the movement horizontally oder vertically, otherwise the pointer won't move at all. When the pointer once moves, the direction can be changed a bit, but only if the stick doesn't leave the segment of that direction. (With segment I mean an area of about 45°)
I noticed that - if key click sounds are enabled on the phone - every move of the joystick makes a sound in ScummVM. When comparing that to the integrated Nokia browser, only the first move in the whole session makes that sound.
I hope the explanation wasn't too confusing and it somehow get's clear what I mean.
I've tested this on ScummVM 0.9.1, as this was the latest version I found for S80 phones.
This leads to the question: Is the S80 port still maintained at all? Also the SVN builds seem to have stopped...
Apart from these problems: Thanks a lot for this port, I've enjoyed it a lot so far

Wow.Where I can fond this newer version ? I looked to cvsbuild but there aren't new version for s80v2. I think 10mb it's not a problem because 9500 have lots of free memory . I don't wanna play in new games.
I had a question. The Discworld and Police Quest are working on s80 ? I tried 2 versions and non of them works...
Sorry for my english. I lots of thanks to You Anotheguest!!! scummvm is a grat emulator!!!

I don't know about the SymbianOS version of ScummVM, but generally speaking Discworld is not supported at all. Only the first Police Quest game is supported, and only if it's the original version. The 256-colour remake isn't supported.Vicious wrote: I had a question. The Discworld and Police Quest are working on s80 ? I tried 2 versions and non of them works...

I thought that Discworld and Simon The Srorcerer are the same game. Sorry my fault. Only original version od Police Quest works - that text version ? It doesn't matter because I like both of them . And both of them I'm end .
So how can I get new version of scummVm AG ? When You repair Your FTP ? I'm waiting and I'd like really thank You .

pq1,kq1,kq2,kq3,kq4,gob2 doesn't work... But still I think You make a great job. What kind of games could not work? I played in Flight Of The Amazon Queen CD version and It works good . It's amazing that I played in this game much faster then on my old Amiga computer . I'm waiting for new version - and If You want I can test all the games on my 9500. THX
