OK, here is a static build of today´s SVN with Tinsel (for Discworld) and all other engines expect Cruise:

All other infos on this build are the same as above for the plugin build.

YEAHHH! That did it :) It works perfectly (now ScummVM finds all games and plays them correctly).

Thanks again!

Hmm, seems that the WinCE plugin version makes somewhere trouble on WM6.1 since all other configure options for the build are identical to the static build. I think I will submit a bug report later.

here is my own compilation of latest sources of scummvm (0.13) with working Discworld, now mac users can test :D
http://157.158.191.235/~avoc/scummvm/
compiled and working well on leopard (10.5.4) dunno if will work on other versions of osx.

There is sdl bug that i don't know how to fix after run bin file it will be error message about sdl-1.2.0.dylib image, something like this:

dyld: Library not loaded: /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_libsdl/work/destroot/opt/local/lib/libSDL-1.2.0.dylib
Referenced from: /usr/local/bin/scummvm
Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap

you can find that image here http://http://157.158.191.235/~avoc/scu ... 2.0-dylib/
just make dir which is in error message and copy that image there scummvm bin should work.

cheers :D

You are not static-linking SDL, hence the errors. To fix it, you must use the static compiled version of SDL, not the dynamic one. The "bundle" target in the ScummVM Makefile tries to do that automatically, but works only with SDL installed via FInk by default. To get it to work with SDL installed in other locations, override the OSXOPT variable, which defaults to /sw, e.g. like this:

OSXOPT=/opt/local ./configure

I'm guessing that patches won't be needed for Discworld 1 & 2 when playing through ScumVM ? And does that apply to any game played through ScummVM ?

Depends on what the patches do. If it's just patch the sound code or some other part of the executable, then no. But if it patch the game data files, like a game script, then yes.

I don't even think you would need them for the game scripts, the dev team usually checks for all that stuff and does it through the re-implementation. I never needed to install any patch for the ScummVM games since they usually include all the necessary changes and even specific workarounds for patched bugs. When there finally is a freeware version of Discworld (1) those will be "patched" files for sure.

For now, Tinsel in ScummVM does not attempt to work around *any* of the issues those game script patches address. And it is not yet clear whether we will attempt that, for various reasons. In particular, if we do manage to get DW freewared, then of course we'd make a fully patched version available. So no reason to bother in implementing hot fixes.

So for now, you should make sure you have the latest game script patches installed. We'll let you know if this ever changes.

Discworld Playthru

Post by TheNine »

Attempted to clock discworld using scummvm on a G3 iMac. Plays well until the cutscene before actIII where it freezes with the music still playing. Couldn't load last save game without it crashing so gave up. Anyone else have the same issues?
