One question and one suggestion

Post by Muyfa666 »

Is there any chance to use the latest daily builds cool skin with the stable version?

And wouldn't it be a good idea to have the game list reappear when u exit a game in ScummVM?

no chance since that was added after the stable version

re-entering the launcher comes up now and then as a suggestion but is hard to implement for technical reasons - somebody suggested a batchfile that loops and restarts ScummVM when it exits - close the game window, it'll restart, close the black console window, it exists (if I remember correctly)

hope that helps,

Don't operating systems support a return code from applications?

I would imagine it wouldn't be hard to return 0 if the launcher was exited, 1 if a game was exited, etc. Then simply compile a new program that executes ScummVM repeatedly until it exits with return code 0. No ugly batch window, etc. (Rename scummvm.exe to scummvm.ex_ and make the new program scummvm.exe, or similar.)
