Secret of Monkey Island Save Games

Post by ezekiel000 »

Does anyone have a set of periodic save games for the CD version of Secret of Monkey Island?

I'm trying to test out the hacks for the Monkey Island Speech Project but I found that I must have deleted my saved games, so I'm hoping someone has some to save me having to play through the game to just test bits and pieces.

Try the debugger. When I was in command I used the "room" command and a random number until I found out where I needed to go.

I'm not too keen on doing that as it's not testing the game while in it's normal state e.g. some variables and events haven't been triggered.

For hacked games, it would be best to just play through games yourself, as scummVM saves contain memory of some resources, so if those resources were modified, the save point would contain the original resources, making testing inaccurate, so you have to save before the script you want to test is loaded.

I found this out after hours of wondering why the script wasn't changing.

To speed up the time it takes to get through the game, you could use ctrl-g to toggle super fast mode.

Ah right I hadn't realised that, thanks for the shortcut.
