Zak Mckracken FM-Towns .scummvm name

Post by stuffuts »

When launching Zak EGA and FM Towns they work fine from Scummvm, but from Emulation Station, FM Towns version fails. I guess that the zak.scummvm file needed is not finding the correct files for the Fm-Towns version, but I haven't found an another shortname except for "zak" to use.

Anyone that has a solution to this?

Thanks!

We do not support that .scummvm files schema. It is not needed for ScummVM itself, and you need to talk to the frontend creators. They simply broke our detection code and use their own, which as you see, is buggy and incomplete.

Oh I didn’t know it was unsupported. Thanks for the clarification!
