REQUEST for the OFFICIAL ScummVM Ps2 1.4.1 download to re-appear in the "older versions" download section on this site. The one on sourceforge is a hybrid with files from this year (also, -S elf instead of the -N elf it should have) mixed in with older ones and is totally not the...
====Ps2 1.4.1 (Jan 27 2012 18:43:53) 14,033kb scummvm-N elf version====
...that worked flawlessly for us (which to some of us is the last version to work 100% and should still be offered). Currently, we don't have any other options for a Ps2 older version since that one went missing.
----------------------------
ELF problems:
1.7.0
ScummVM 1.7.0 NOT working on USB devices.
(Black screen with various users and Ps2 models)
[Hard Drive problem finally solved in another thread.]
----------------------------
SETTINGS:
1.7.0
Not displaying on most basic TVs, by DEFAULT?
(example: Black screen, which seems to be the biggest issue over the years with Ps2 users.)
(fix example: Removing "gfx_mode=3" from the INI provided in the 1.7.0 zip)
Not saving its own settings, by DEFAULT?
It won't save ANY changes made on the launcher to the hard drive, and it won't create its own Scumm folder on memory card if you choose to insert and use one.
(fix example: Manually making a scummvm folder on memory card, adding the scummvm.icn and icon.sys files from a previous version of scumm, cut/paste the INI file from the hard drive to the memory card folder, load with memory card inserted, set paths, add games, cut/paste the INI file back to hard drive, then run as normal)
REQUEST for seperate ".ini" files PRE-setup for hdd/usb, right in the zip? Pre-set paths for the standard filesystem would be a bonus (saves, theme, plugins, etcetera).
----------------------------
SAVING:
1.7.0 & 1.4.1
Neither version actually saves your game to the hard drive every time, even though it says save successful EVERY time, in reality it only works ~05% of the time.
(fix example: You literally have to EXIT the game to Frontend (or Backend, depending on how you look at it) Launcher and RELOAD the save (you just saved) before you can be sure it is actually saved.
----------------------------
SCREEN POSITION (In-Game default X/Y fixes):
1.7.0
screen= down 5 right 10.
1.4.1
screen= down 10 right 5.
(example: Can't see all of character's speech or lotto numbers in Zak Mckracken and others.)
----------------------------
COMPATIBILITY Reports:
1.7.0 (non working games)
Freddi Fish 5- The Case of the Creature of Coral Cove (Russian (ID: freddicove-win-ru).
Spy Fox 3- Operation Ozone (English (ID: spyozon-us).
----------------------------
KEYBOARD problems:
1.7.0 & 1.4.1
USB-keyboard not working (working properly in 1.3.1).
----------------------------
GAMES (we hope for future implementation):
Guilty.
Innocent Until Caught.

..... EVERYONE ELSE .....

All right everyone else, let's start posting so I can fill this up, and together we can make our ScummVM and Ps2 world a better place.
