Please test! ScummVM DS 0.13.1 beta2 download here!

Post by agentq »

Please note, this build is obsolete.

For the current beta, try here:
http://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?t=7145



Please test this new beta version of ScummVM, and post your results here. If you try this out, please post how you got on here, whether it worked or not.

When you post, try to include:
* Your card reader
* The game you were testing (including which language it runs in)

If you see problems, please post the details of those too.

Since this is hopefully the final beta, if you use this build, please post a short message with what game you played, and what hardware you used. That way I know what has been tested.

Since this is a beta version, full instructions are not yet available, but instructions for use are essentially the same as the previous version, so see the ScummVM DS website at http://scummvm.drunkencoders.com

Fixes in beta2:
- Fixed a bug where the top screen would corrupt when the console
was turned off
- Fixed a possible crash on boot
- Fixed a memory leak in the load game dialog in SCUMM games.




New features:
- Access to the global ScummVM main menu. Hold select during the game to access it.

Hi agentq
Just try Sam & Max (french) and everything seems ok except that (for me) the "low sound quality" sounds better than the "high quality" but maybe it's my ears or headsets.

Hi,

Using M3Real (with GBA expansion) the return to main launcher (holding select) results in a crash.

If I recall correctly this DID work correctly in the FullThrottle/Dig [scummvmds0-13-1-ftdigtest2] version, but now it also crashes there (scummvmds0-13-1-ftdigtest5)

'Quit' (turning off the DS) only seems to work from the main launcher, not from within a game...


Oh and the 'H' version still has the 'G' icon ;-)

Using a TTDS here, no RAM pack. The option to return to the main menu works in Build D, but locks up Build A.

Also found a weird crash on Beneath a Steel Sky (floppy). If I try to save a game, and I'm typing on the console, and then hit the virtual ENTER, the game locks up. But if I type the game name, then switch screens and press the "save" button onscreen, it works.

Is a build with the Tinsel engine possible for DS?

@tigres, : Okay, I've found and fixed the crash returning to launcher/quitting, thanks!

@InnocentBystander: I can't make the game crash when saving in Beneath a Steel Sky. I've done it loads of times but it always works fine for me.

Did you crash it at a certain point in the game? Or did you change any of the default options? Did you do it several times?

@Mortys: Did you realise you need to turn your DS off then on to change the sound quality after you change the setting?

If you don't do that your change won't take effect!

@Hansi: Yes, I believe a Tunsel build should be possible, but I haven't worked on it yet!

@agentq

All of the defaults were left alone with version B. I had it happen twice, both in rooms early on in the game. If I recall, one was on the ledge just to the right of where you begin, and the other was in the room below it, in the room with the droid and the elevator.

Like I said, it only locked up if I hit "enter" on the virtual keyboard. And, oddly, it still saved successfully, and rather locked up immediately afterwards when trying to return control to me. I'm thinking it may have gotten confused by having the virtual keyboard showing, or something.

But, the TTDS kinda sucks, so if you can't recreate it, I'll just assume it's my cart.
