I`m using M3Real with EZ-Expansion 3 in 1 and also got R4, i tested Full Throttle on both of them till moment when Ben got thru road block and it`s works perfect, small slowdowns but no crash or something, but i start the game many times and even saving works great!
Oh and i`m using Russian version of the game, it bigger in three times of english,but again works SUPER!
And tonight friend gives me russian version of The Dig,i`m gonna test it too some later...

Full Throttle (german) appears to run properly on my CycloDS + EZ 3in1. Minor sound loops on scene changes, like Echtzeit reported. (I only played till I met Maureen.)
In the DIG (german) right after the intro I took out the PenUltimate and started playing Asteroid Lander using the virtual keyboard. After a some seconds pressing the cursor keys the game was frozen. Reproducable, but probably not essential :) Applying the explosives works.
Thanks!
Edit:
After taking off the space suits, when Low tries to contact the Shuttle, an OOM error occurs:

the icon for this build test 3 says "G" not "J".
tested full throttle pc (version-a) using an acekard 2.1 black pcb running akaio 1.4.1 proper and an ez 3in1, all is working. the mac version, however, does not load.
i noticed that build J loads up games i had stored for build E. are the different builds sharing an .ini now? i recall in the past that they each only stored the settings for their individual build. this was much preferred, as this way we don't have to remember which games go with which build. if at all possible, could you take it back to the older method? ... or it is entirely possible i'm missing something =).

Tried the test3 version and subtitles work nicely now, except the bottom line falls offscreen in the dig...
Also in this version I can go back to the main menu [select], which fails in other 13.1beta1 builds, they just hang
(M3Real with GBA expansionPack (detected as: G6) )
I had an issue with the intro crashing on Full Throttle, I tested with another version which runs ok
I previously used a version that came on a special edition CD (with Fark Forces), it gets identified by ScummVM as
ID: ft
Full Throttle (Version A/English)
I checked with a friend, his version came up as
ID: ft-1
Full Throttle (Version B/English)
The only changed files (MD5 checked) are
VIDEO\CREDITS.SAN
FT.LA0
FT.LA1
The H version of 13.1beta1 (Nippon Safes) also has the G icon btw...

full throttle freeze-up:
part five, when the demolition derby starts the game freezes. right after the Nestor & Bolus cut scene (where the sound drastically cuts in and out), i see two cars and the game freezes in version-A, version-B just errors.
error version-A:
(142:5:0x3D) : Out of memory while allocating 133824!
error version-B:
(1420x13ABB) readArray: invalid array 491 (0)!
tested on:
an acekard 2.1 black pcb
akaio 1.4.1 proper
ez 3in1
ndsl
i made a save file just before the cut-scenes that lead up to the derby. agentq if you can make use of it let me know, i will PM it to you.
cheers!

You are an absolute genius, this is brilliant. I'm using CycloDS / EZ 3 in 1 and so far other than very minor sound/graphical glitches Full Throttle has worked perfectly.
Hmm I didn't think about the possibilities of using the extra RAM in the DSi for advanced homebrew... I've only just had my DS so that'll be a bit frustrating if great things happen. Although I already have almost every great point and click (or should it be point and tap now?) game at my stylus tip so I guess there won't be anything THAT amazing on the horizon.

Hi agentq,
I've been tested your beta version in the last hours.
I'm using an original DSTT (kernel 1.17, the last one) and a Ewin GBA Expansion 2-in-1 (32 MB), marked as TopToy.
Pressing R after loading GBA ExpLoader, the slot-2 cartridge is recognized as an EZ expansion and seems to work fine.
I'm using the Italian version of Full Throttle. It runs quite well, sometimes it freezes for a second or two while loading the scenes, but that's not the issue.
The problem is that it randomly (but always after a few seconds) crashes during the car show at the stadium. I get the following error message:
(142:274:0xA32): Out of memory while allocating 133824!
Turning off the sound effects doesn't seem to help. Turning off the scaling does a bit, just to see Maureen asking "Where are you, Ben?", then Ben's reply. Then the game crashes.
I've a savegame just before entering the Volture's cave, I don't know if it may help.
Also, I don't understand how to move the car... I should use the virtual keyboard (X), I guess?
Finally, the Italian version of The Dig doesn't even start. It loads for some seconds, the mouse icon appear on the top screen then it crashes and loads the debug console. The error message is:
(10x1A46): Unknown frame subChunk found : ZFOB, 27386!

@MaxArt : use the hover mod (up key) to drive the bike and to skeep the Exits. Go back to Left click (left key) to choose and exit.
@Agentq : The Dig (french) work as far as I play (only the intro and the beginning)

I think that means the movie files have been compressed, and that this version of ScummVM doesn't support that. Have you tried using the original movie files?MaxArt wrote: Finally, the Italian version of The Dig doesn't even start.
