I vote for somethign different!

I vote for a repackaging for a fixpack as even if they do work, they will still need resolution/8mhz/16mhz and cache options bolted to the front.

I know, I'm just a lamer who DLs stuff (well, I do work on MiNT, but thats a different game altogether)

Anyway, I tend to agree with you for the fact that you will possess a copy of Game X that has worked, and it will reduce the R0mZ kids from emailing every DBug member asking where to get a working copy of "Poke Suzy in the Butt with the Mouse Cursor" because their's doesn't work.......

Sorry, its been a LONG day with ScummVM lameness.....

Need to be uncompressed.  I did not include MP3 or OGG support in the ST ScummVM because the poor 060 can't handle.  Adlib is already killing it.  I have been working on an alternative to adlib with using native midi to start and maybe rough YM later, but have had issues there, mostly related to my C++ lameness.....  MP3 in ScummVM is set to use LibMAD, which would be useful if could be ported to run off the DSP, since the DSP can handle MP3 decoding with little help from the main CPU.  Tremor would be the solution to OGG, running on the DSP, it 'should' be possible, but alot of work, and I am learning as I go with most things....  Of course, most of my work (mainly trying to get my midi driver to work) has been put off because they keep adding stuff too fast.....

Anyway, the raw original file works best.  DoTT (and Sam n Max) have some lag in the cut scenes, but are playable.  You can try Flight of the Amazon Queen as well (Full version is a freeware release, about 87 Megs), about the same for the way it runs, about 90% speed when speech/music/graphics are going...

You can bug me in #atariscne (KeithS), I should be in their pestering Patrice over GCC 4.1.2 for MiNT.... 

Sorry for the way off topic BTW

My 'current' goal is to get the Lucas Arts game working well, up to DoTT/SamNMax, The Dig and MI3 are more challenging because the graphics put a huge load on the CPU.  Also, plan on keeping up with the Kyrandia support (plays well also and I have been playing it on the Falcon), Simon the Sorcerer, and Flight of the Amazon Queen, and maybe that Quest for the Orb game.  AGI support is just going to have to wait, and not a big deal because I believe they work on the Falcon natively (<------  ON TOPIC!) 

Actually, I *think* and I don't remember fr sure now because I have tested so much crap....  I believe some of the ST Scumm games work natively on the falcon, and also run off the HD.  It seems to me Monkey Island and the Indy Last Crusade Adventure will run fine if you copy the files.  And the Sierra AGI games will do the same, except depending on how the .prg was cracked, it may as for a floppy in drive A to verify protection.

As far as testing, my wife can tell you all about the intro to Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, and me cursing up a storm because some thing did not work.....
