All the inane chatter goes in here. If you're curious about whether we will support a game, post HERE not in General Discussion :)

Sometime In The Future....

Post by simplesimon »

Is there any plans of incorporating the any of the Legend Entertainment games in ScummVM. Also it would be nice to see some of the early Interplay games like: Tass Times In Toontown, Borrowed Time, Neuromancer & Mindshadow. Preferably the Amiga versions since they are far superior to the dos versions in every way.

Please read the FAQ before posting (specifically question 2.2), and also the many many existing threads dealing with similar requests for new games being added.

I wasn't asking for these games to be made available, I was asking IF they were in the works.

Notice the sub-forum The Junkyard has a sub-header

Maybe see what you can pick up there first in the threads and with a search. Between that and the ScummVM team's blogs you'll get a good idea of what's planned.

Seems like a generalized discussion topic to me. If it's that big of a deal maybe this part of the forum should be changed to Specified Discussion. 8)

I can't verify it myself, but judging by earlier discussion the games have some common framework. However, the actual game logic is mostly hard-coded, which means that if you made an engine that could run one of the games, getting the next one to run would still be a lot of work.

Or so I've been told.
