SVN games

Post by scoriae »

I am not very familiar with code, however I understand basic scripting procedures. That said, is there a place within the SVN code to see what all games are currently supported as WIP?

Or, maybe a better question is, would someone mind explaining the method by which to determine all games supported by an SVN build?

Thank you.

So every game that is supported the the (non-1.6.0 test build) svn engine is listed there?

Hmm, Ok. Maybe the wiki is more up to date than it used to be. Previously game support appeared in the SVN build and would remain unmentioned on the wiki for quite some time.

So i thought it would be easier to just see if it was possible to downloads to source and check the comment fields or something to see a complete list of all games that are running in some form or another.

Back in the days --list-games passed to the scummvm binary was quite useable for this. But nowadays with the single target engines (like SCI) it does not list all supported games anymore.

Thank you for the tip. At the very least it would tell me what engines it supports, and from there I could check the games in that engine. Primarily it would show me if a new engine popped up.

I just tried this however, and I got no response back from scummvm.

Well, none that I found anyways. It didnt create a file in the folder the binary resides in, nor did it export anything to the screen. Does it go hide somewhere else?

I just checked the \appdata\roaming\scummvm folder as well - no dice.

edit:
According to:
http://logs.scummvm.org/log.php?
log=scummvm.log.17Feb2012&format=html

Some engines have it disabled... so it may not be so useful afterall?
