According to http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Dataf ... l_Throttle you must to exclude some files from the data folder and the video folder.
My question is: why do I have to exclude the files from the data folder and the video folder?
I searched on the forum for an answer but without any luck.
Can somebody help me with an explanation?

Re: Full throttle Excluded Files
I doubt that you have to exclude them. Someone has probably just figured out somehow that they aren't used. At least, I've read that there is some unused artwork in some files, so perhaps that's related.simonbelmont2 wrote: My question is: why do I have to exclude the files from the data folder and the video folder?

My Full Throttle CD has four .rip files in the "data" folder. I believe that's all ScummVM needs (some sort of colour palettes, by the looks of it), and if so they would be covered by the "DATA folder, EXCEPT files" section.bingobot wrote:I've actually tried this, and it doesnt work.

Roger that, gonna test FT now with only the files listed here http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Dataf ... l_Throttleeriktorbjorn wrote:My Full Throttle CD has four .rip files in the "data" folder.

Where it says, for instance...bingobot wrote: or have i misunderstood it all? those files listed, are those the files that are unnecessary ?
... it means the DATA folder, and every file inside it except for those four particular files. In my case, the DATA folder contains 60 files, and apparently 56 of them are used. (Even so, you don't have to remove those four, of course. It's just that according to whoever made the list, it won't harm the game if you do.)DATA folder, EXCEPT files:
- BENBIKE.NUT
- CHASEBEN.SAN
- ROADRASH.NUT
- ROADRSH2.NUT
