compress_tinsel (Discworld 1 *.SMP - Unsupported)

Post by sambartle »

Hi All,

I'm trying to compress the English.smp file from my UK Discworld CD..

I've compiled the tools from the 1.4.0 source on the Downloads page.. (I'm using Debian)

When I run the GUI and plug in the English.smp I get an error on the console..

Code: Select all

Input file name: /path/to/Discworld/english.smp
md5: 4710bd5cc788df1d517370d43abe1101
Unsupported file
Should this be compressible?

From googling the checksum I can see some reports that this is the same MD5 as found on some multi-language versions of the game.. however mine is english only as far as I can tell. (Theres no options in the game and no other language.txt files other than english)



As an aside the documentation for beginners on both compiling the tools and what can be compressed with them is a bit vague.. I'd quite like to help out getting that sorted if possible as I'm getting back into ScummVM now that it's available for android..
