ScummVM's Worst Kept Secret

Post by clone2727 »

There'll be few of you that don't know that the daily build of ScummVM has supported the first two Discworld games for some time now. Despite the stability of the engine, we held off announcing official support, since we were hoping to be able to simultaneously announce the freewaring of the game titles.

Since it seems unlikely the two games will be freewared in time for the next major release, it's been decided to go ahead and officially announce support for the games. The PC versions of the first two games are fully supported, and the PSX version of the Discworld 1 game is completable (but without music currently).

Those of you haven't already played them can do so with the daily build of ScummVM, report all encountered bugs to our bug tracker and submit some nice screenshots.

Great news, but is is still 'a likelihood' that DW 1&2 are going to be free-wared, or do you prefer not to comment on that?

So now what's the status of the enhanced soundtrack performed by James Woodcock? I know it was going to be released with the next stable version, but given that it doesn't look like the game's going to be freewared anytime soon... I hope we won't miss that fantastic feature :?.
