[solved] 0.13.1: could not find any game

[Marvin]

I've copied over ScummVM and the game files (1 game per dir) to my M3 Real. The games (Lure, DOTT, Maniac) ran fine with ScummVM on my PC. But when I add a game on the DS I get

"ScummVM could not find any game in the specified directory"

despite all required files for being there. How come?

Are you sure you are using the right ScummVM build? There are builds A-H included with the DS version. Each support different games.

Here is a list of which games work with which build:

Other games are not supported on the DS version due to the lack of enough memory on the DS, or the required screen resolution. However, if you have a SLOT-2 RAM device you can play The Dig and Full Throttle with the version available here:

Nice one, completely forgot about it and since the card is formatted with FAT32 only one build was atop the list followed by readme, news etc. so I did not scroll down.

BTW, one build for all games (except the two that need extra RAM) would be impossible? Also completely resetting from the game launcher back to the card's game launcher so I could start another DS games without turning off the DS isn't possible either?

On a regular DS, yes. It might be possible in DSi mode (on a DSi, obviously), if someone ever figures that out.

Also completely resetting from the game launcher back to the card's game launcher so I could start another DS games without turning off the DS isn't possible either?

That's a flash card feature. Some cards allow it, some don't.
