Shortcuts.

[sarmasarma6]

I have two questions and i'd like someone to help me.
1) Is it possible to create some king of shortcut to a game and put it in a speciffic folder (Games), so you can start a game without going into ScumVm menu (like in Windows)?
2) When i play Day of the Tentacle and come to the copy protections (plans) ScummVm doesn't bypass it and i don't have a manual so i can't progress. Can anyone provide me a saved game right after this point?

I might be anal, but why don't you have a manual?

[sarmasarma6]

Coz i've dug it up from some junk with my old games, so i didn't find a manual. But it seems ScumVM has problems bypassing copy protection only with DOT, other games work just fine.

That's deliberate. We don't know of any floppy version of Day of the Tentacle that was sold without the necessary copy protection information, so there's no legitimate reason to bypass it.

Got it, thanks. Can you tell me something about the shortcut thing?

[sarmasarma6]

Great! I've found the manual, and when i enter the correct pattern the professor says something like "Good work" and the game freezes. I've waited for about 5-6 mins but nothing happens. I'm using ScummVM 0.11.0 and Nokia N73.

The same thing happens with the latest svn. The game just freezes. Did anyone had this kind of problem? Can somebody help me?

That's odd, and should not happen. Maybe you should file a bug report.

Well to test it I would need DOTT, and a save game to start off from. Which platform?

[sarmasarma6]

The game vas on my mem card. I've moved it to C:DOTT and it works just fine now. This thing with the shortcut, is it possible?

[Anotherguest]

Well.. No shortcuts available on Symbian OS!
