This fork includes: -## 1.0) Introduction +- smooth joystick support +- highres game support (including Blade Runner) +- fluidsynth audio option support (although it is defaulted to adlib as it is generally less CPU-intensive) +- support for games with mp3 music track playback (such as with Monkey Island 1 CD-ROM version) +- optional debug-mode for better more verbose logging +- CPU-savings on audio engine (bitrate changed to 48k) -### 1.1) About ScummVM +This is still very much a WIP, and should be considered more of a preview until these changes get merged back into the upstream Scummvm project. -ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical -point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data -files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables -shipped with the game, allowing you to play them on systems for which -they were never designed\! +## How to install +Download newest [scummvm-rg350.opk release](https://github.com/craigsc/scummvm-rg350/releases) and place it at /media/sdcard/apps/scummvm-rg350.opk . Restart your device for good measure and you should see the Scummvm icon pop up under your emulators section. -Originally it was designed to run LucasArts' SCUMM games, such as Maniac -Mansion, Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle or Sam and Max. SCUMM stands -for 'Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion', which was the first -game for which LucasArts designed this system. And much later it gave -its name to ScummVM ('VM' meaning Virtual Machine). +## Controls +- Joystick/d-pad: mouse cursor movement +- A: left-mouse click +- B: right-mouse click +- X: ' ' - Either pauses or skips current line of text depending on game +- Y: '.' - skips current dialog line on several games +- Start: 'F5' - Scummvm pause menu +- Select: 'Esc' - skips cutscenes on many games +- L-trigger: 'Shift' - i'm not a game that uses it lol +- R-trigger: show/hide virtual keyboard -Over time support for a lot of non-SCUMM games has been added, and -ScummVM now also supports many of Sierra's AGI and SCI games (such as -King's Quest 1-6, Space Quest 1-5, ...), Discworld 1 and 2, Simon the -Sorcerer 1 and 2, Beneath A Steel Sky, Lure of the Temptress, Broken -Sword I and II, Flight of the Amazon Queen, Gobliiins 1-3, The Legend of -Kyrandia series, many of Humongous Entertainment's children's SCUMM -games (including Freddi Fish and Putt Putt games) and many more. You can -find a full list with details on which adventures are supported and how -well on the compatibility page. ScummVM is continually improving, so -check back often. +## Notes on audio +Different games play better using various audio settings. In general, using Adlib emulation is suggested as it seems to be the fastest HOWEVER if you are having issues with either scratchy or out-of-sync audio then I recommend you change the game settings and select 'Fluidsynth' instead. Of note, this fixes a audio/video sync issue on Blade Runner that appears on the RG 350 when Adlib is used. -Among the systems on which you can play those games are regular desktop -computers (running Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, ...), game consoles -(Dreamcast, Nintendo DS & Wii, PS2, PSP, ...), smartphones (Android, -iPhone, Symbian ...) and more. - -At this time ScummVM is still under heavy development. Be aware that -whilst we attempt to make sure that many games can be completed with few -major bugs, crashes can happen and we offer no warranty. That being -said, some of the games have been supported for a long time and should -work fine with any recent stable release. You can get a feeling of how -well each game is working in ScummVM by looking at the compatibility -page. Actually, if you browse a bit around you might discover that -ScummVM is even being used commercially to re-release some of the -supported games on modern platforms. This shows that several companies -are happy with the quality of the software and how well it can run some -of the games. - -If you enjoy ScummVM feel free to donate using the PayPal button on the -ScummVM homepage. This will help us buy utilities needed to develop -ScummVM easier and quicker. If you cannot donate, help and contribute a -patch\! - -### 1.2) Quick start - -For the impatient among you, here is how to get ScummVM running in five -simple steps. - -1. Download ScummVM from <https://www.scummvm.org/downloads/> and - install it. - -2. Create a directory on your hard drive and copy the game datafiles - from the original media to this directory. Repeat this for every - game you want to play. - -3. Start ScummVM, choose 'Add game', select the directory with the game - datafiles (do not try to select the datafiles themselves\!) and - press `Choose`. - -4. A dialog should pop up allowing you to configure various settings if - you wish to (it should be just fine to leave everything at its - default, though). Confirm the dialog. - -5. Select the game you want to play in the list, and press `Start`. - -In the future, you should be able to directly skip to step 5, unless you -want to add more games. - -Hint: If you want to add multiple games in one go, try pressing and -holding the shift key before clicking 'Add game' -- its label will -change to 'Mass Add' and if you press it, you are again asked to select -a directory, only this time ScummVM will search through all -subdirectories for supported games. - -### 1.3) F.A.Q. - -We've compiled a list of F.A.Q. at: - -<https://www.scummvm.org/faq/> - -## 2.0) Contact - -The easiest way to contact the ScummVM team is by submitting bug reports -(see section 2.1) or by using our forums at <https://forums.scummvm.org>. -You can also join and e-mail the scummvm-devel mailing list, or chat -with us on IRC (\#scummvm on irc.freenode.net) Please do not ask us to -support an unsupported game -- read the FAQ on our web site first. - -### 2.1) Reporting Bugs - -To report a bug, please follow the "Bug Tracker" link from our homepage -and log in with your GitHub account. Please make sure the bug is -reproducible, and still occurs in the latest git/Daily build version. -Also check the known problems list (below) and the compatibility list on -our website for that game, to ensure the issue is not already known: - -<https://www.scummvm.org/compatibility/> - -Please do not report bugs for games that are not listed as being -completeable in the 'Supported Games' section, or compatibility list. We -_know_ those games have bugs. - -Please include the following information: - - - ScummVM version (PLEASE test the latest git/Daily build) - - Bug details, including instructions on reproducing - - Language of game (English, German, ...) - - Version of game (talkie, floppy, ...) - - Platform and Compiler (Win32, Linux, FreeBSD, ...) - - Attach a saved game if possible - If this bug only occurred - recently, please note the last version without the bug, and the - first version including the bug. That way we can fix it quicker by - looking at the changes made. - -Finally, please report each issue separately; do not file multiple -issues on the same ticket. (Otherwise, it gets difficult to track the -status of each individual bug). - -## 3.0) Supported Games - -At the moment the following games have been reported to work, and should -be playable to the end: A more detailed compatibility list of the -supported games can be found here: -

Save -often, and please file a bug report (instructions on submitting bug -reports are above) if you encounter such a bug in a 'supported' game. - -### 3.1) Copy Protection - -The ScummVM team does not condone piracy. However, there are cases where -the game companies (such as LucasArts) themselves bundled 'cracked' -executables with their games -- in these cases the data files still -contain the copy protection scripts, but the interpreter bypasses them -(similar to what an illegally cracked version might do, only that here -the producer of the game did it). There is no way for us to tell the -difference between legitimate and pirated data files, so for the games -where we know that a cracked version of the original interpreter was -sold at some point, ScummVM will always have to bypass the copy -protection. - -In some cases ScummVM will still show the copy protection screen. Try -entering any answer. Chances are that it will work. - -ScummVM will skip copy protection in the following games: - - - Beneath a Steel Sky - - bypassed with kind permission from Revolution Software. - - Dreamweb - - a list of available commands in the in-game terminals is now - shown when the player uses the `help` command - - Inherit the Earth: Quest for the Orb (Floppy version) - - bypassed with kind permission from Wyrmkeep Entertainment, since - it was bypassed in all CD releases of the game. - - Loom (EGA DOS) - - Lure of the Temptress - - Maniac Mansion - - Might and Magic: World of Xeen - - Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge - - Rex Nebular and The Cosmic Gender Bender - - Simon the Sorcerer 1 (Floppy version) - - Simon the Sorcerer 2 (Floppy version) - - bypassed with kind permission from Adventure Soft, since it was - bypassed in all CD releases of the game. - - The Secret of Monkey Island (VGA) - - Voyeur - - Waxworks - - Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders - -### 3.2) Datafiles - -For a comprehensive list of required Datafiles for supported games -visit: - -<https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Datafiles> - -### 3.3) Multi-CD games notes - -In general, ScummVM does not deal very well with Multi-CD games. This is -because ScummVM assumes everything about a game can be found in one -directory. Even if ScummVM does make some provisions for asking the user -to change CD, the original game executables usually installed a small -number of files to the hard disk. Unless these files can be found on all -the CDs, ScummVM will be in trouble. - -Fortunately, ScummVM has no problems running the games entirely from -hard disk, if you create a directory with the correct combination of -files. Usually, when a file appears on more than one CD you can pick -either of them. - -### 3.4) Known Problems - -This release has the following known problems. There is no need to -report them, although patches to fix them are welcome. If you discover a -bug that is not listed here, nor in the compatibility list on the web -site, please see the section on reporting bugs. - -CD Audio Games: - - - When playing games that use CD Audio (FM-TOWNS games, Loom CD, etc) - users of Microsoft Windows 2000/XP may experience random crashes. - This is due to a long-standing Windows bug, resulting in corrupt - game files being read from the CD. Please copy the game data to your - hard disk to avoid this. - -FM-TOWNS versions: - - - The Kanji versions require the FM-TOWNS Font ROM. - -Loom: - - - Turning off the subtitles via the config file does not work reliably - as the Loom scripts automatically turn them on again. - - MIDI support in the EGA version requires the Roland update from - LucasArts. - - The PC-Engine Kanji version requires the system card rom. - -The Secret of Monkey Island: - - - MIDI support in the EGA version requires the Roland update from - LucasArts. - -Beneath a Steel Sky: - - - Amiga versions aren't supported. - - Floppy demos aren't supported. - - Not a bug: CD version is missing speech for some dialogs, this is - normal. - -Elvira - Mistress of the Dark: - - - No music in the Atari ST version. - -Elvira II - The Jaws of Cerberus - - - No music in the Atari ST version. - - No sound effects in the PC version. - - Palette issues in the Atari ST version. - -Inherit the Earth: Quest for the Orb: - - - Amiga versions aren't supported. - -Lure of the Temptress: - - - No Roland MT-32 support. - - Sound support is incomplete and doesn't sound like original. - -Simon the Sorcerer 1: - - - Subtitles aren't available in the English and German CD versions as - they are missing the majority of subtitles. - -Simon the Sorcerer 2: - - - Combined speech and subtitles will often cause speech to be cut off - early, this is a limitation of the original game. - - Only default language (English) of data files is supported in Amiga - and Macintosh versions. - -Simon the Sorcerer's Puzzle Pack: - - - No support for displaying, entering, loading or saving high scores. - - No support for displaying names of items, when hovering over them in - Swampy Adventures. - -The Feeble Files: - - - Subtitles are often incomplete, they were always disabled in the - original game. - -The Legend of Kyrandia: - - - No music or sound effects in the Macintosh floppy versions. - - Macintosh CD is using included DOS music and sound effects. - -Humongous Entertainment games: - - - Only the original load and save interface can be used. - - No support for multiplayer or printing images. - -### 3.5) Extra Data Files - -Some games require additional files that are not part of the original data. Those files can generally be found in our [Downloads](https://www.scummvm.org/downloads/#extras) page. - -Games that require additional data: - - Beneath a Steel Sky (sky.cpt) - - Flight of the Amazon Queen - - Kyrandia Series (kyra.dat) - - Lands of Lore Series (kyra.dat) - - Lure of the Temptress (lure.dat) - - Versailles 1685 (cryomni3d.dat) - -The most up to date list of Engine data files can be found in our [source code repository](https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/tree/master/dists/engine-data) - -### 3.6) Blade Runner notes - -Supported versions are English (both CD and DVD), French, German, -Italian, Russian (by Fargus Multimedia) and Spanish. Other unofficial -versions exist but they are based on the English version. - -All *.mix, *.tlk and *.dat files are needed from all 4 CDs/DVD. -Files named CDFRAMES.DAT need to be renamed to CDFRAMES1.DAT, -CDFRAMES2.DAT, CDFRAMES3.DAT and CDFRAMES4.DAT according on -the CD they came from. Other files with the same name on different -CDs are identical and it doesn't matter which one is used. - -To enable subtitles, download a file from our [Downloads](https://www.scummvm.org/games/#bladerunner) page -and place file SUBTITLES.MIX next to the other game files. - -"Blade Runner with restored content" is not yet supported and might -contain game breaking bugs. - -### 3.7) Broken Sword games notes - -The instructions for the Broken Sword games are for the Sold-Out -Software versions, with each game on two CDs, since these were the -versions most easily available at the time ScummVM gained support for -them. Hopefully they are general enough to be useful to other releases -as well. - -#### 3.7.1) Broken Sword - -For this game, you will need all of the files from the clusters -directories on both CDs. For the Windows and Macintosh versions, you -will also need the speech.clu files from the speech directories, but -since they are not identical you will need to rename them speech1.clu -and speech2.clu for CD 1 and 2 respectively. The PlayStation version -requires the speech.tab, speech.dat, speech.lis, and speech.inf. - -In addition, the Windows and Macintosh versions require a music -subdirectory with all of the files from the music subdirectories on both -CDs. Some of these files appear on both CDs, but in these cases they are -either identical or, in one case, so nearly identical that it makes -little difference. The PlayStation version requires tunes.dat and -tunes.tab. - -#### 3.7.2) Broken Sword II - -For this game, you will need all of the files from the clusters -directories on both CDs. (Actually, a few of them may not be strictly -necessary, but the ones that I'm uncertain about are all fairly small.) -You will need to rename the speech.clu and music.clu files speech1.clu, -speech2.clu, music1.clu and music2.clu so that ScummVM can tell which -ones are from CD 1 and which ones are from CD 2. Any other files that -appear in both cluster directories are identical. Use whichever you -like. - -In addition, you will need the cd.inf and, optionally, the startup.inf -files from the sword2 directory on CD 1. - -#### 3.7.3) Broken Sword games cutscenes - -The cutscenes for the Broken Sword games have a bit of a history (see -the next section, if you are interested), but in general all you need to -do is to copy the .SMK files from the "SMACKS" or "SMACKSHI" directories -on the CDs to the same directory as the other game data files. (Broken -Sword has a "SMACKSLO" directory with the same cutscenes, but these are -of lower quality.) You can put them in a subdirectory called "video" if -you find that neater. - -For the PlayStation versions, you can dump the original videos off the -disc. For each of the files ending in an "STR" extension, you should -dump them as *raw* sectors off the disc (all 2352 bytes per sector). You -may also use the re-encoded cutscenes mentioned below instead, but this -will not work for all videos in Broken Sword II. For more information, -see: - -<https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/HOWTO-PlayStation_Videos> - -Some re-releases of the games, as well as the PlayStation version, do -not have Smacker videos. Revolution Software has kindly allowed us to -provide re-encoded cutscenes for download on our website: - -<https://www.scummvm.org/downloads/> - -These cutscenes are provided in DXA format with FLAC audio. Their -quality is equal to the original games due to the use of lossless -compression. Viewing these cutscenes requires a version of ScummVM -compiled with both FLAC and zlib support. - -For systems that are too slow to handle the decoding of FLAC audio, the -audio for these cutscenes is also provided separately as OGG Vorbis -audio. Viewing these cutscenes with OGG Vorbis audio requires a version -of ScummVM compiled with both libVorbis and zlib support. - -For Broken Sword, we also provide a subtitles add-on. Simply unpack it -and follow the instructions in its readme.txt file. The subtitle pack -currently does not work when running PlayStation videos. (Broken Sword -II already has subtitles; no extra work is needed for them.) - -#### 3.7.4) Broken Sword games cutscenes, in retrospect - -The original releases of the Broken Sword games used RAD Game Tools's -Smacker(tm) format. As RAD was unwilling to open the older legacy -versions of this format to us, and had requested we not reverse engineer -it, an alternative solution had to be found. - -In Broken Sword II, it was possible to play back the voice-over without -playing the video itself. This remained a fallback until ScummVM 1.0.0, -but was never the only solution for any stable release. - -In ScummVM 0.6.0 we used MPEG, which provided a reasonable trade-off -between size and quality. In ScummVM 0.10.0 this was superseded by DXA -(originally added for AdventureSoft's "The Feeble Files"). This gave us -a way of providing the cutscenes in the exact same quality as the -originals, at the cost of being larger. - -Finally, in early 2006, the Smacker format was reverse engineered for -the FFmpeg project. Thanks to their hard work, ScummVM 1.0.0 now -supports the original cutscenes. At the same time, MPEG support was -dropped. From a technical standpoint, this was a good thing since -decoding MPEG movies added a lot of complexity, and they didn't look as -good as the Smacker and DXA versions anyway. - -### 3.8) Day of the Tentacle notes - -At one point in the game, you come across a computer that allows you to -play the original Maniac Mansion as an easter egg. ScummVM supports -this, with a few caveats: - -ScummVM will scan your configuration file for a game that's in a -`Maniac` sub-folder of your Day of the Tentacle folder. If you've copied -the data files from the CD version, this should already be the case but -you have to add the game to ScummVM as well. - -To return to Day of the Tentacle, press F5 and select "Return to -Launcher". - -This means that you could in theory use any game as the easter egg. -Indeed, there is a "secret" configuration setting, `easter_egg`, to -override the ID of the game to run. Be aware, though, that not all games -support returning to the launcher, and setting it up to use Day of the -Tentacle itself as the easter egg game is not recommended. - -### 3.9) Dragon History notes - -There are 4 language variants of the game: Czech, English, Polish and -German. Each of them is distributed in a separate archive. The only -official version is the Czech one, and the English, Polish and German -ports have always been work in progress and never officially released. -Although all texts are fully translated, it is known that some of them -contain typos. - -There exists an optional Czech dubbing for the game. For bandwidth -reasons, you can download it separately and then unpack it to the -directory of the game. You can listen to the Czech dubbing with all -language variants of the game, while reading the subtitles. - -All game files and the walkthrough can be downloaded from: - -<http://www.ucw.cz/draci-historie/index-en.html> - -### 3.10) Flight of the Amazon Queen notes - -Only the original non-freeware version of Flight of the Amazon Queen -(from original CD), requires the `queen.tbl` datafile (available from the `Downloads` page on our website) in either the -directory containing the `queen.1` game data file, in your extrapath, or -in the directory where your ScummVM executable resides. - -Alternatively, you can use the `compress_queen` tool from the tools -package to 'rebuild' your FOTAQ data file to include the table for that -specific version, and thus removing the run-time dependency on the -`queen.tbl` file. This tool also allows you to compress the speech and -sound effects with MP3, OGG or FLAC. - -### 3.11) Gobliiins notes - -The CD versions of the Gobliiins series contain one big audio track -which you need to rip (see the section on using compressed audio files) -and copy into the game directory if you want to have in-game music -without the CD in the drive all the time. The speech is also in that -track and its volume is therefore changed with the music volume control -as well. - -### 3.12) Inherit the Earth: Quest for the Orb notes - -In order to run the Mac OS X Wyrmkeep re-release of the game you will -need to copy over data from the CD to your hard disk. If you're on a PC -then consult: - -<https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/HOWTO-Mac_Games> - -Although it primarily talks about SCUMM games, it mentions the -"HFSExplorer" utility which you need to extract the files. Note that you -have to put the speech data "Inherit the Earth Voices" in the same -directory as the game data which is stored in: - -Inherit the Earth.app/Contents/Resources - -For the old Mac OS 9 release you need to copy the files in MacBinary -format, as they should include both resource and data forks. Copy all -'ITE \*' files. - -### 3.13) Mickey's Space Adventure notes - -To run Mickey's Space Adventure under ScummVM, the original executable -of the game (mickey.exe) is needed together with the game's data files. - -There is extensive mouse support for the game under ScummVM, even though -there wasn't any mouse support in the original game. Menu items can be -selected using the mouse, and it is possible to move to other locations -using the mouse as well. When the mouse cursor is hovered on the edges -of the screen, it changes color to red if it is possible to walk towards -that direction. The player can then simply click on the edges of the -game's screen to change location, similar to many adventure games, which -is simpler and more straightforward than moving around using the menu. - -### 3.14) Might and Magic Xeen games notes - -To properly play the World of Xeen CD Talkie using original discs, use -LAME or some other encoder to rip the cd audio tracks to files, either -mp3 or ogg. Whichever you choose, the tracks of the first CD should be -named from track02 to track31, whereas the second CD's audio tracks -should be encoded and renamed as track32 through to track60. - -For the GOG Might and Magic 4-5 installation, install the game to your -computer, and do the following steps: - - - The game1.inst (CUE) and game1.gog (BIN) file from the game folder - is a CD image. Use software like Virtual CloneDrive to mount it as a - drive. Linux and MacOS users can use bchunk to convert it to an ISO. - - Copy all the .cc files from the subfolder in the mounted drive to a - new empty game folder that you create for the game. - - Copy all the music/\*.ogg files from the GOG installation to your - game folder. You'll then need to rename all of them from xeen??.ogg - to track??.ogg - - You should then be able to point ScummVM to this new game folder, - and the CD talkie version should be detected. - -Savegames from either Clouds or Darkside of Xeen games can be -transferred across to World of Xeen (that combines both games) simply by -setting up and detecting World of Xeen (either by manually combining the -two games or using the GOG World of Xeen installer), and then renaming -the savegames to use the World of Xeen savegame format, by default -'worldofxeen.\*' - -The Xeen engine also offers two custom options in the Engine tab for the -games in the ScummVM launcher. They are: - - - To change the threshold armor breaks at for characters from -10HP to - -80HP - - To show values for inventory items, even outside of the blacksmith, - allowing the relative strength/value of armor and weapons to be - compared. - -### 3.15) Myst game notes - -Left Click: Move/action -Space: Pause the game -Esc: Skip cutscene -F5: Menu - -Myst will autosave to slot 0 if no save or an autosave is present in -slot 0. - -### 3.16) Quest for Glory notes - -It is possible to import characters, beginning with Quest for Glory II, -from past games to future games and continue from the stats earned from -those games. - -For example, a character can be imported from Quest for Glory I directly -to Quest for Glory III without having to necessarily play Quest for -Glory II. - -Characters cannot be imported from future games to past games, nor can a -character be imported to the same game that was just completed. In other -words, a character from Quest for Glory II cannot be imported into Quest -for Glory II. - -If you want to use a saved character from the original Sierra -interpreter, you will need to rename the character file to -"qfg\[game-number\]-\[character-filename\].sav" and place it in the -ScummVM save path (see section 6.0), otherwise the file won't get listed -on the import screen. - -Example: qfg2-thief.sav - -### 3.17) Riven game notes - -Left Click: Move/action -Arrow Keys: Movement -Page Up: Look up -Page Down: Look down -Space: Pause the game -Esc: Skip cutscene -F5: Menu -Ctrl-o: Load game -Ctrl-s: Save game - -Riven will autosave to slot 0 if no save or an autosave is present in -slot 0. - -### 3.18) Simon the Sorcerer games notes - -If you have the dual version of Simon the Sorcerer 1 or 2 on CD, you -will find the Windows version in the main directory of the CD and the -DOS version in the DOS directory of the CD. - -### 3.19) Starship Titanic game notes - -For the purposes of solving the starfield puzzle, only mouse clicks, L -and Tab are really needed, though the action glyph in the PET can be -used instead of Tab. - -### 3.20) The Curse of Monkey Island notes - -For this game, you will need the comi.la0, comi.la1 and comi.la2 files. -The comi.la0 file can be found on either CD, but since they are -identical it doesn't matter which one of them you use. - -In addition, you will need to create a "resource" subdirectory -containing all of the files from -both- "resource" subdirectories on the -two CDs. Some of the files appear on both CDs, but again they're -identical. - -### 3.21) The Feeble Files notes - -Amiga/Macintosh: You need to install a small pack of cutscenes that are -missing in both of these versions of The Feeble Files. It's called "The -Feeble Files - Omni TV and epilogue cutscenes for the Amiga and -Macintosh versions" and you can get it here: - -<https://www.scummvm.org/games/#feeble> - -Windows: If you have the Windows version of The Feeble Files, there are -several things to note. - -Many of the files necessary for the game are stored in an InstallShield -file called data1.cab, which ScummVM is unable to unpack. You will need -to use the original installer or i5comp to unpack the contents of this -file. The i5comp decompression tool, can be found via a search on the -internet. - -To use the speech files with ScummVM, they need to be renamed as -follows: - - - Rename voices.wav on CD1 to voices1.wav - - Rename voices.wav on CD2 to voices2.wav - - Rename voices.wav on CD3 to voices3.wav - - Rename voices.wav on CD4 to voices4.wav - -### 3.22) The Legend of Kyrandia notes - -To run The Legend of Kyrandia under ScummVM you need the `kyra.dat` -file. The file should already be included in official ScummVM packages. -In case ScummVM complains that the file is missing you can find it on -the `Downloads` page of the ScummVM website. Note that the current -Windows release of ScummVM should contain the file embedded into the -executable, thus you only need to grab it in case ScummVM complains -about the file being missing. - -### 3.23) Troll's Tale notes - -The original game came in a PC booter disk, therefore it is necessary to -dump the contents of that disk in an image file and name it "troll.img" -to be able to play the game under ScummVM. - -### 3.24) Winnie the Pooh notes - -It is possible to import saved games from the original interpreter of -the game into ScummVM. - -There is extensive mouse support for the game under ScummVM, even though -there wasn't any mouse support in the original game. Menu items can be -selected using the mouse, and it is possible to move to other locations -using the mouse as well. When the mouse cursor is hovered on the edges -of the screen, it changes color to red if it is possible to walk towards -that direction. The player can then simply click on the edges of the -game's screen to change location, similar to many adventure games, which -is simpler and more straightforward than moving around using the menu. - -### 3.25) Sierra AGI games: Predictive Input Dialog - -The Predictive Input Dialog is a ScummVM aid for running AGI engine -games (which notoriously require command line input) on devices with -limited keyboard support. In these situations, since typing with -emulated keyboards is quite tedious, commands can be entered quickly and -easily via the Predictive Input Dialog. - -In order to enable predictive input in AGI games, you need to copy the -pred.dic file in the ScummVM extras directory or the directory of the -game you wish to play. This dictionary has been created by parsing -through all known AGI games and contains the maximum set of common -words. - -If the dictionary is detected, the Predictive Input Dialog is displayed -either when you click on the command line area (wherever keyboard input -is required, even in dialog boxes), or in some ports by pressing a -designated hot key. - -The predictive input dialog operates in three modes, switchable by the -(\*)Pre/123/Abc button. The primary input method is the predictive mode -(Pre) which resembles the way "fast typing" is performed at phones. The -alphabet is divided into 9 sets which naturally map to the 9 number keys -of the numeric keypad (0 is space). To type in a word, you press once -the number of the set which contains the letter of the word you intend -to type, then move on to the next. For example, to type the command -`look`, you should press 5665. As you gradually type the intended word's -numeric code, the dictionary is accessed for known words matching your -input up to that point. As you press more keys, the prediction converges -to the correct word. This is why the printed word may change -dramatically between key presses. There exist situations though where -more than one words share the same numeric representation. For example -the words `quit` and `suit` map to the same number, namely 7848. In -these cases the (\#)next button lights up. By pressing it, you can cycle -through the list of words sharing the same code and finally accept the -correct one by pressing (0)space or the Ok button. - -The second input method (123) is the numeric input: Each key you press -is entered verbatim as a number. - -The third input method (Abc) is the Multi-tap Alpha input mode. This -mode is intended for entering free text, without assistance from the -dictionary scheme of predictive (Pre) mode. The text is entered one -letter at the time. For each letter first press the number of the set -which contains the letter you want, then use the (\#)next button to -cycle through the letters and repeat with another number. For example, -to enter the word `look` you must press the following: -5\#\#6\#\#6\#\#5\# - -The dialog is fully usable with the mouse, but a few provisions have -been made in some ScummVM ports to make its use more comfortable by -naturally mapping the functionality to the numeric keypad. Also, the -dialog's buttons can be navigated with the arrow and the enter keys. - -### 3.26) Sierra SCI games: Simultaneous speech and subtitles - -Certain CD versions of Sierra SCI games had both speech and text -resources. Some have an option to toggle between the two, but there are -some cases where there wasn't any option to enable both simultaneously. -In ScummVM, it is possible to enjoy a combined mode, where both speech -and text are shown at the same time. This mode can be toggled in the -ScummVM audio options, but each game has different behavior in-game -regarding speech and text toggling. - -The CD games where speech and subtitles can be shown simultaneously are: - - - EcoQuest 1 CD - - Freddy Pharkas CD - - Gabriel Knight CD - - King's Quest 6 CD - - King's Quest VII CD - - Laura Bow 2 CD - - Leisure Suit Larry 6 CD - - Leisure Suit Larry 6 (hires) CD - - Police Quest 4 CD - - Shivers CD - - Space Quest 4 CD - - Space Quest 6 CD - - Torin's Passage CD - -**EcoQuest 1 CD:** Speech and text can be toggled via the game's "Mode" -option in the options dialog, or via ScummVM's audio options. - -**Freddy Pharkas CD:** There is no in-game option to toggle speech and -text. Only ScummVM's audio options can be used to toggle this feature. -Note that some spoken dialog is missing from the game texts. - -**Gabriel Knight CD:** Speech and text can be toggled via the "Text" and -"Voice" buttons in the game's settings dialog, or via ScummVM's audio -options. - -**King's Quest 6 CD:** Speech and text can be toggled via the "Mode" -button in the options dialog (with an extra "Dual" setting added in -ScummVM), or via ScummVM's audio options. - -**King's Quest VII CD:** There is no in-game option to toggle speech and -text. Only ScummVM's audio options can be used to toggle this feature. -Note that the subtitles were disabled in the official release of this -game, so some subtitles may be wrong or missing. - -**Laura Bow 2 CD:** Speech and text can be toggled via the "Mode" button -in the options dialog (with an extra "Dual" setting added in ScummVM), -or via ScummVM's audio options. - -**Leisure Suit Larry 6 CD:** Either speech only or speech and text can -be selected. There is no in-game option to toggle text only. Only -ScummVM's audio options can be used to enable the text only mode. - -**Leisure Suit Larry 6 (hires) CD:** Text can be toggled by selecting -the "Text On/Off" option from the in-game "Game" menu, or via ScummVM's -audio options.

Speech can be disabled by -selecting "Audio Mixer" from the in-game "Game" menu and setting the -speech volume to zero. - -### 3.27) Zork games notes - -To run the supported Zork games (Zork Nemesis: The Forbidden Lands and -Zork: Grand Inquisitor) you need to copy some (extra) data to its -corresponding destination. - -#### 3.27.1) Zork Nemesis: The Forbidden Lands - -Download the Liberation(tm) fonts package -<https://releases.pagure.org/liberation-fonts/liberation-fonts-ttf-2.00.1.tar.gz> -and unpack all the ttf files into your ScummVM extras directory. -Alternatively, ScummVM comes with the GNU FreeFont fonts, though at the -time of writing these fonts cause some text rendering issues. Download -the subtitles patch <https://www.thezorklibrary.com/installguides/znpatch.zip> -and unzip the addon directory into the game root directory - -#### 3.27.2) Zork: Grand Inquisitor - -Download the Liberation(tm) fonts package -<https://releases.pagure.org/liberation-fonts/liberation-fonts-ttf-2.00.1.tar.gz> -and unpack all the ttf files into your ScummVM extras directory. -Alternatively, ScummVM comes with the GNU FreeFont fonts, though at the -time of writing these fonts cause some text rendering issues. - -### 3.28) Commodore64 games notes - -Both Maniac Mansion and Zak McKracken run but Maniac Mansion is not yet -playable. Simply name the D64 disks "maniac1.d64" and "maniac2.d64" -respectively "zak1.d64" and "zak2.d64", then ScummVM should be able to -automatically detect the game if you point it at the right directory. - -Alternatively, you can use `extract_mm_c64` from the tools package to -extract the data files. But then the game will not be properly -autodetected by ScummVM, and you must make sure that the platform is set -to Commodore64. We recommend using the much simpler approach described -in the previous paragraph. - -### 3.29) Macintosh games notes - -All LucasArts SCUMM based adventures, except COMI, also exist in -versions for the Macintosh. ScummVM can use most (all?) of them, -however, in some cases some additional work is required. First off, if -you are not using a Macintosh for this, accessing the CD/floppy data -might be tricky. The reason for this is that the mac uses a special disk -format called HFS which other systems usually do not support. However, -there are various free tools which allow reading such HFS volumes. For -example `HFSExplorer` for Windows and `hfsutils` for Linux and other -Unix-like operating systems. - -Most of the newer games on the Macintosh shipped with only a single data -file (note that in some cases this data file was made invisible, so you -may need extra tools in order to copy it). ScummVM is able to directly -use such a data file; simply point ScummVM at the directory containing -it, and it should work (just like with every other supported game). - -We also provide a tool called `extract_scumm_mac` in the tools package -to extract the data from these data files, but this is neither required -nor recommended. - -For further information on copying Macintosh game files to your hard -disk see: - -<https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/HOWTO-Mac_Games> - -## 4.0) Supported Platforms - -ScummVM has been ported to run on many platforms and operating systems. -Links to these ports can be found either on the ScummVM web page or by a -Google search. Many thanks to our porters for their efforts. If you have -a port of ScummVM and wish to commit it into the master git, feel free -to contact us\! - -Supported platforms include (but are not limited to): - - - UNIX (Linux, Solaris, IRIX, \*BSD, ...) - - Windows - - Mac OS X - - AmigaOS - - Android - - Atari/FreeMiNT - - BeOS - - Dreamcast - - GP2x - - Haiku - - iPhone (also includes iPod Touch and iPad) - - Maemo (Nokia Internet tablet N810) - - Nintendo 64 - - Nintendo DS - - Nintendo GameCube - - Nintendo Wii - - OpenPandora - - OS/2 - - PlayStation 2 - - PlayStation 3 - - PlayStation Portable - - PlayStation Vita - - Raspberry Pi - - RISC OS - - Symbian - - WebOS - -The Dreamcast port does not support The Curse of Monkey Island, nor The -Dig. The Nintendo DS port does not support Full Throttle, The Dig, or -The Curse of Monkey Island. For more platform specific limitations, -please refer to our Wiki: - -<https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Platforms> - -In the Macintosh port, the right mouse button is emulated via Cmd-Click -(that is, you click the mouse button while holding the -Command/Apple/Propeller key). - -There are unofficial ports to a variety of platforms, including the -Xbox, and Xbox 360. Please note that these are not made -by us, so we neither endorse nor can we support them. Use at your own -risk\! - -## 5.0) Running ScummVM - -Please note that by default, ScummVM will save games in the directory it -is executed from, so you should refrain from running it from more than -one location. Further information, including how to specify a specific -save directory to avoid this issue, are in section 6.0. - -ScummVM can be launched directly by running the executable. In this -case, the built-in launcher will activate. From this, you can add games -(click 'Add Game'), or launch games which have already been configured. -Games can also be added in mass quantities. By pressing shift + 'Add -Game' (Note that the image turns to 'Mass Add'), you can then specify a -directory to start in, and ScummVM will attempt to detect games in all -subdirectories of that directory. - -ScummVM can also be launched into a game directly using Command Line -arguments -- see the next section. - -### 5.1) Command Line Options - - Usage: scummvm [OPTIONS]... [GAME] - - [GAME] Short name of game to load. For example, 'scumm:monkey' - for Monkey Island. This can be either a built-in - gameid, or a user configured target. - - -v, --version Display ScummVM version information and exit - -h, --help Display a brief help text and exit - -z, --list-games Display list of supported games and exit - -t, --list-targets Display list of configured targets and exit - --list-engines Display list of suppported engines and exit - --list-saves Display a list of saved games for the target specified - with --game=TARGET, or all targets if none is specified - -a, --add Add all games from current or specified directory. - If --game=ID is passed only the game with id ID is - added. See also --detect. - Use --path=PATH to specify a directory. - --detect Display a list of games with their ID from current or - specified directory without adding it to the config. - Use --path=PATH to specify a directory. - --game=ID In combination with --add or --detect only adds or attempts to - detect the game with id ID. - --auto-detect Display a list of games from current or specified directory - and start the first one. Use --path=PATH to specify - a directory. - --recursive In combination with --add or --detect recurse down all - subdirectories - --console Enable the console window (default: enabled) (Windows only) - - -c, --config=CONFIG Use alternate configuration file - -p, --path=PATH Path to where the game is installed - -x, --save-slot[=NUM] Saved game slot to load (default: autosave) - -f, --fullscreen Force full-screen mode - -F, --no-fullscreen Force windowed mode - -g, --gfx-mode=MODE Select graphics scaler (see also section 5.3) - --stretch-mode=MODE Select stretch mode (center, integral, fit, stretch) - --filtering Force filtered graphics mode - --no-filtering Force unfiltered graphics mode - - - --gui-theme=THEME Select GUI theme (default, modern, classic) - --themepath=PATH Path to where GUI themes are stored - --list-themes Display list of all usable GUI themes - -e, --music-driver=MODE Select music driver (see also section 7.0) - --list-audio-devices List all available audio devices - -q, --language=LANG Select game's language (see also section 5.5) - -m, --music-volume=NUM Set the music volume, 0-255 (default: 192) - -s, --sfx-volume=NUM Set the sfx volume, 0-255 (default: 192) - -r, --speech-volume=NUM Set the voice volume, 0-255 (default: 192) - --midi-gain=NUM Set the gain for MIDI playback, 0-1000 (default: 100) - (only supported by some MIDI drivers) - -n, --subtitles Enable subtitles (use with games that have voice) - -b, --boot-param=NUM Pass number to the boot script (boot param) - -d, --debuglevel=NUM Set debug verbosity level - --debugflags=FLAGS Enable engine specific debug flags - (separated by commas) - -u, --dump-scripts Enable script dumping if a directory called 'dumps' - exists in the current directory - - --cdrom=NUM CD drive to play CD audio from (default: 0 = first - drive) - --joystick[=NUM] Enable joystick input (default: 0 = first joystick) - --platform=WORD Specify platform of game (allowed values: 2gs, 3do, - acorn, amiga, atari, c64, fmtowns, mac, nes, pc, - pce, segacd, windows) - --savepath=PATH Path to where saved games are stored - --extrapath=PATH Extra path to additional game data - --soundfont=FILE Select the SoundFont for MIDI playback (Only - supported by some MIDI drivers) - --multi-midi Enable combination of AdLib and native MIDI - --native-mt32 True Roland MT-32 (disable GM emulation) - --enable-gs Enable Roland GS mode for MIDI playback - --output-rate=RATE Select output sample rate in Hz (e.g. 22050) - --opl-driver=DRIVER Select AdLib (OPL) emulator (db, mame, nuked) - --aspect-ratio Enable aspect ratio correction - --render-mode=MODE Enable additional render modes (hercGreen, hercAmber, - cga, ega, vga, amiga, fmtowns, pc9821, pc9801, 2gs, - atari, macintosh) - - --alt-intro Use alternative intro for CD versions of Beneath a - Steel Sky and Flight of the Amazon Queen - --copy-protection Enable copy protection in games, when - ScummVM disables it by default. - --talkspeed=NUM Set talk delay for SCUMM games, or talk speed for - other games (default: 60) - --demo-mode Start demo mode of Maniac Mansion (Classic version) - --tempo=NUM Set music tempo (in percent, 50-200) for SCUMM games - (default: 100) - -The meaning of most long options (that is, those options starting with a -double-dash) can be inverted by prefixing them with "no-". For example, -`--no-aspect-ratio` will turn aspect ratio correction off. This is -useful if you want to override a setting in the configuration file. - -The short game name ('game target') you see at the end of the command -line specifies which game is started. It either corresponds to an -arbitrary user defined target (from the configuration file), or to a -built-in gameid. A brief list of the latter can be found in section 3.0. - -Examples: - - - Win32: - Running Monkey Island, fullscreen, from a hard disk: - `C:\Games\LucasArts\scummvm.exe -f -pC:\Games\LucasArts\monkey\ - scumm:monkey` - Running Full Throttle from CD, fullscreen and with subtitles - enabled: - `C:\Games\LucasArts\scummvm.exe -f -n -pD:\resource\ scumm:ft` - - - Unix: - Running Monkey Island, fullscreen, from a hard disk: - `/path/to/scummvm -f -p/games/LucasArts/monkey/ scumm:monkey` - Running Full Throttle from CD, fullscreen and with subtitles - enabled: - `/path/to/scummvm -f -n -p/cdrom/resource/ scumm:ft` - -### 5.2) Global Menu - -The Global Menu is a general menu which is available to all of the game -engines by pressing Ctrl-F5. From this menu there are the following -buttons: Resume, Options, About, Return to Launcher, and Quit. Selecting -`Options` will display a dialog where basic audio settings, such as -volume levels, can be adjusted. Selecting 'Return to Launcher' will -close the current game and return the user back to the ScummVM Launcher, -where another game may be selected to play. - -Note: Returning to the Launcher is not supported by all of the engines, -and the button will be disabled in the Global Menu if it is not -supported. - -Engines which currently support returning to the Launcher are: - - AGI - AGOS - BLADERUNNER - CINE - COMPOSER - CRUISE - CRYOMNI3D - DRACI - DRASCULA - GOB - GROOVIE - HUGO - KYRA - LURE - MADE - MOHAWK - PARALLACTION - QUEEN - SAGA - SCI - SCUMM - SKY - SWORD1 - SWORD2 - TEENAGENT - TITANIC - TOUCHE - TSAGE - TUCKER - ZVISION - -### 5.3) Graphics filters - -ScummVM offers several anti-aliasing filters to attempt to improve -visual quality. These are the same filters used in many other emulators, -such as MAME. These filters take the original game graphics, and scale -it by a certain fixed factor (usually 2x or 3x) before displaying them -to you. So for example, if the game originally run at a resolution of -320x200 (typical for most of the SCUMM games), then using a filter with -scale factor 2x will effectively yield 640x400 graphics. Likewise with a -3x filter you will get 960x600. - -They are: - - 1x - No filtering, no scaling. Fastest. - 2x - No filtering, factor 2x (default for non 640x480 games). - 3x - No filtering, factor 3x. - 2xsai - 2xSAI filter, factor 2x. - super2xsai - Enhanced 2xSAI filtering, factor 2x. - supereagle - Less blurry than 2xSAI, but slower. Factor 2x. - advmame2x - Doesn't rely on blurring like 2xSAI, fast. Factor 2x. - advmame3x - Doesn't rely on blurring like 2xSAI, fast. Factor 3x. - hq2x - Very nice high quality filter but slow. Factor 2x. - hq3x - Very nice high quality filter but slow. Factor 3x. - tv2x - Interlace filter, tries to emulate a TV. Factor 2x. - dotmatrix - Dot matrix effect. Factor 2x. - -To select a graphics filter, select it in the Launcher, or pass its name -via the '-g' option to scummvm, for example: - - scummvm -gadvmame2x scumm:monkey2 - -Note \#1: Not all backends support all (or even any) of the filters -listed above; some may support additional ones. The filters listed above -are those supported by the default SDL backend. - -Note \#2: Filters can be very slow when ScummVM is compiled in a debug -configuration without optimizations. And there is always a speed impact -when using any form of anti-aliasing/linear filtering. - -Note \#3: The FM-TOWNS version of Zak McKracken uses an original -resolution of 320x240, hence for this game scalers will scale to 640x480 -or 960x720. Likewise, games that originally were using 640x480 (such as -Curse of Monkey Island or Broken Sword) will be scaled to 1280x960 and -1920x1440. - -### 5.4) Hotkeys - -ScummVM supports various in-game hotkeys. They differ between SCUMM -games and other games. - -``` - Common: - Ctrl-F5 - Displays the Global Menu - Cmd-q - Quit (Mac OS X) - Ctrl-q - Quit (other unices including Linux) - Alt-F4 - Quit (Windows) - Ctrl-z - Quit (other platforms) - Ctrl-u - Mute all sounds - Ctrl-m - Toggle mouse capture - Ctrl-Alt 1-8 - Switch between graphics filters - Ctrl-Alt + and - - Increase/Decrease the scale factor - Ctrl-Alt a - Toggle aspect-ratio correction on/off - Most of the games use a 320x200 pixel - resolution, which may look squashed on - modern monitors. Aspect-ratio correction - stretches the image to use 320x240 pixels - instead, or a multiple thereof - Ctrl-Alt f - Enable/disable graphics filtering - Ctrl-Alt s - Cycle through scaling modes - Alt-Enter - Toggles full screen/windowed - Alt-s - Make a screenshot (SDL backend only) - Ctrl-F7 - Open virtual keyboard (if enabled) - This can also be triggered by a long press - of the middle mouse button or wheel. - - SCUMM: - Alt-x - Quit - Ctrl 0-9 and Alt 0-9 - Load and save game state - Ctrl-d - Starts the debugger - Ctrl-f - Toggle fast mode - Ctrl-g - Runs in really REALLY fast mode - Ctrl-t - Switch between 'Speech only', - 'Speech and Subtitles' and 'Subtitles only' - Tilde (~) - Show/hide the debugging console - [ and ] - Music volume, down/up - - and + - Text speed, slower/faster - F5 - Displays a save/load box - Alt-F5 - Displays the original save/load box, if the - game has one.

This however only affects subtitles; -game speech will remain the same. - - Maniac Mansion and Zak McKracken - en - English (default) - de - German - fr - French - it - Italian - es - Spanish - - The Dig - jp - Japanese - zh - Chinese - kr - Korean - - The Curse of Monkey Island - en - English (default) - de - German - fr - French - it - Italian - pt - Portuguese - es - Spanish - jp - Japanese - zh - Chinese - kr - Korean - - Beneath a Steel Sky - gb - English (Great Britain) (default) - en - English (USA) - de - German - fr - French - it - Italian - pt - Portuguese - es - Spanish - se - Swedish - - Broken Sword - en - English (default) - de - German - fr - French - it - Italian - es - Spanish - pt - Portuguese - cz - Czech - -## 6.0) Saved Games - -Saved games are by default put in the current directory on some -platforms and preset directories on others. You can specify the save in -the config file by setting the savepath parameter. See the example -config file later in this README. - -The platforms that currently have a different default directory are: - -**Mac OS X:** - -`$HOME/Documents/ScummVM Savegames/` - -**Other unices:** - -We follow the XDG Base Directory Specification. This means by default -saved games can be found in: `$XDG_DATA_HOME/scummvm/saves/` - -If `XDG_DATA_HOME` is not defined or empty, `~/.local/share` will be -used as value of `XDG_DATA_HOME` in accordance with the specification. - -If an earlier version of ScummVM was installed on your system, the -previous default location of `~/.scummvm` will be kept. This is detected -based on the presence of the path `~/.scummvm`. - -**Windows Vista/7:** - -`\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\ScummVM\Saved games\` - -**Windows 2000/XP:** - -`\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\ScummVM\Saved games\` - -**Windows NT4:** - -`<windir>\Profiles\username\Application Data\ScummVM\Saved games\` - -Saved games are stored under a hidden area in Windows -NT4/2000/XP/Vista/7, which can be accessed by running -`%APPDATA%\ScummVM\Saved Games` or by enabling hidden files in Windows -Explorer. - -Note for Windows NT4/2000/XP/Vista/7 users: The default saved games -location changed in ScummVM 1.5.0.

MIDI may not be -available on all operating systems or may need manual configuration. If -you want to use MIDI, you have several different choices of output, -depending on your operating system and configuration. - - null - Null output. Don't play any music. - - adlib - Internal AdLib emulation - fluidsynth - FluidSynth MIDI emulation - mt32 - Internal MT-32 emulation - pcjr - Internal PCjr emulation (only usable in SCUMM games) - pcspk - Internal PC Speaker emulation - towns - Internal FM-TOWNS YM2612 emulation - (only usable in SCUMM FM-TOWNS games) - - alsa - Output using ALSA sequencer device. See below. - core - CoreAudio sound, for Mac OS X users. - coremidi - CoreMIDI sound, for Mac OS X users. Use only if you have - a hardware MIDI synthesizer. - seq - Use /dev/sequencer for MIDI, *nix users. See below. - timidity - Connect to TiMidity++ MIDI server. See below. - windows - Windows MIDI. Uses built-in sequencer, for Windows users - -To select a sound driver, select it in the Launcher, or pass its name -via the `-e` option to scummvm, for example: - -`scummvm -eadlib scumm:monkey2` - -### 7.1) AdLib emulation - -By default an AdLib card will be emulated and ScummVM will output the -music as sampled waves. This is the default mode for several games, and -offers the best compatibility between machines and games. - -### 7.2) FluidSynth MIDI emulation - -If ScummVM was build with libfluidsynth support it will be able to play -MIDI music through the FluidSynth driver. You will have to specify a -SoundFont to use, however. - -Since the default output volume from FluidSynth can be fairly low, -ScummVM will set the gain by default to get a stronger signal. This can -be further adjusted using the `--midi-gain` command-line option, or the -`midi_gain` config file setting. - -The setting can take any value from 0 through 1000, with the default -being 100. (This corresponds to FluidSynth's gain settings of 0.0 -through 10.0, which are presumably measured in decibel.) - -NOTE: The processor requirements for FluidSynth can be fairly high in -some cases. A fast CPU is recommended. - -### 7.3) MT-32 emulation - -Some games which contain MIDI music data also have improved tracks -designed for the MT-32 sound module. ScummVM can now emulate this -device, however you must provide original MT-32 ROMs to make it work: - -`MT32_PCM.ROM` - IC21 (512KB) -`MT32_CONTROL.ROM` - IC26 (32KB) and IC27 (32KB), interleaved byte-wise - -Place these ROMs in the game directory, in your extrapath, or in the -directory where your ScummVM executable resides. - -You don't need to specify `--native-mt32` with this driver, as it -automatically gets turned on. - -NOTE: The processor requirements for the emulator are quite high; a fast -CPU is strongly recommended. - -### 7.4) MIDI emulation - -Some games (such as Sam & Max) only contain MIDI music data. This once -prevented music for these games from working on platforms that do not -support MIDI, or soundcards that do not provide MIDI drivers (e.g. many -soundcards will not play MIDI under Linux). ScummVM can now emulate MIDI -mode using sampled waves and AdLib, FluidSynth MIDI emulation or MT-32 -emulation using the `-eadlib`, `-efluidsynth` or `-emt32` options -respectively. However, if you are capable of using native MIDI, we -recommend using one of the MIDI modes below for best sound. - -### 7.5) Native MIDI support - -Use the appropriate `-e<mode>` command line option from the list above -to select your preferred MIDI device. For example, if you wish to use -the Windows MIDI driver, use the `-ewindows` option. - -#### 7.5.1) Using MIDI options to customize Native MIDI output - -ScummVM supports a variety of MIDI modes, depending on the capabilities -of your MIDI device. - -If `--native-mt32` is specified, ScummVM will treat your device as a -real MT-32. Because the instrument mappings and system exclusive -commands of the MT-32 vary from those of General MIDI devices, you -should only enable this option if you are using an actual Roland MT-32, -LAPC-I, CM-64, CM-32L, CM-500, or GS device with an MT-32 map. - -If `--enable-gs` is specified, ScummVM will initialize your -GS-compatible device with settings that mimic the MT-32's reverb, (lack -of) chorus, pitch bend sensitivity, etc. If it is specified in -conjunction with `--native-mt32`, ScummVM will select the -MT-32-compatible map and drumset on your GS device. This setting works -better than default GM or GS emulation with games that do not have -custom instrument mappings (Loom and Monkey1). You should only specify -both settings if you are using a GS device that has an MT-32 map, such -as an SC-55, SC-88, SC-88 Pro, SC-8820, SC-8850, etc. Please note that -`--enable-gs` is automatically disabled in both DOTT and Samnmax, since -they use General MIDI natively. - -If neither of the above settings is enabled, ScummVM will initialize -your device in General MIDI mode and use GM emulation in games with -MT-32 soundtracks. - -Some games contain sound effects that are exclusive to the AdLib -soundtrack. For these games, you may wish to specify `--multi-midi` in -order to combine MIDI music with AdLib sound effects. - -### 7.6) UNIX native, ALSA and dmedia sequencer support - -If your soundcard driver supports a sequencer, you may set the -environment variable `SCUMMVM_MIDI` to your sequencer device -- for -example, to /dev/sequencer - -If you have problems with not hearing audio in this configuration, you -may need to set the environment variable `SCUMMVM_MIDIPORT` to 1 or 2. -This selects the port on the selected sequencer to use. Then start -scummvm with the `-eseq` parameter. This should work on several cards, -and may offer better performance and quality than AdLib emulation. -However, for those systems where sequencer support does not work, you -can always fall back on AdLib emulation. - -#### 7.6.1) ALSA sequencer \[UNIX ONLY\] - -If you have installed the ALSA driver with sequencer support, then you -may set the environment variable `SCUMMVM_PORT` or the config file -variable `alsa_port` to specify your sequencer port. If neither is set, -the default behavior is to try both "65:0" and "17:0". - -Here is a brief guide on how to use the ALSA sequencer with your -soundcard. In all cases, to obtain a list of all the sequencer ports you -have, try the command `aconnect -o -l`. This should give output similar -to: - -``` - client 14: 'Midi Through' [type=kernel] - 0 'Midi Through Port-0' - client 16: 'SBLive! Value [CT4832]' [type=kernel] - 0 'EMU10K1 MPU-401 (UART)' - client 17: 'Emu10k1 WaveTable' [type=kernel] - 0 'Emu10k1 Port 0 ' - 1 'Emu10k1 Port 1 ' - 2 'Emu10k1 Port 2 ' - 3 'Emu10k1 Port 3 ' - client 128: 'TiMidity' [type=user] - 0 'TiMidity port 0 ' - 1 'TiMidity port 1 ' - 2 'TiMidity port 2 ' - 3 'TiMidity port 3 ' -``` - -The most important bit here is that there are four WaveTable MIDI -outputs located at 17:0, 17:1, 17:2 and 17:3, and four TiMidity ports -located at 128:0, 128:1, 128:2 and 128:3. - -If you have a FM-chip on your card, like the SB16, then you have to load -the SoundFonts using the sbiload software. Example: - - sbiload -p 17:0 /etc/std.o3 /etc/drums.o3 - -If you have a WaveTable capable sound card, you have to load a sbk or -sf2 SoundFont using the sfxload or asfxload software. Example: - - sfxload /path/to/8mbgmsfx.sf2 - -If you don't have a MIDI capable soundcard, there are two options: -FluidSynth and TiMidity. We recommend FluidSynth, as on many systems -TiMidity will 'lag' behind music. This is very noticeable in -iMUSE-enabled games, which use fast and dynamic music transitions. -Running TiMidity as root will allow it to setup real time priority, -which may reduce music lag. - -Asking TiMidity to become an ALSA sequencer: - - timidity -iAqqq -B2,8 -Os1S -s 44100 & - -(If you get distorted output with this setting, you can try dropping the --B2,8 or changing the value.) - -Asking FluidSynth to become an ALSA sequencer (using SoundFonts): - - fluidsynth -m alsa_seq /path/to/8mbgmsfx.sf2 - -Once either TiMidity or FluidSynth are running, use the 'aconnect -o -l' -command as described earlier in this section. - -#### 7.6.2) IRIX dmedia sequencer: \[UNIX ONLY\] - -If you are using IRIX and the dmedia driver with sequencer support, you -can set the environment variable `SCUMMVM_MIDIPORT` or the config file -variable `dmedia_port` to specify your sequencer port. The default is to -use the first port. - -To get a list of configured midi interfaces on your system, run -"startmidi" without parameters. Example output: - -``` - 2 MIDI interfaces configured: - Serial Port 2 - Software Synth -``` - -In this example, you can configure ScummVM to use the "Software Synth" -instead of the default "Serial Port 2" by adding a line - - dmedia_port=Software Synth - -to your configuration file in the section \[scummvm\], or setting -`SCUMMVM_PORT=Software Synth` in your environment. - -### 7.7) TiMidity++ MIDI server support - -If your system lacks any MIDI sequencer, but you still want better MIDI -quality than default AdLib emulation can offer, you can try the -TiMidity++ MIDI server. See <http://timidity.sourceforge.net/> for -download and install instructions. - -First, you need to start a daemon: - - timidity -ir 7777 - -Now you can start ScummVM and try selection TiMidity music output. By -default, it will connect to localhost:7777, but you can change host/port -via the `TIMIDITY_HOST` environment variable. You can also specify a -"device number" using the `SCUMMVM_MIDIPORT` environment variable. - -### 7.8) Using compressed audio files - -#### 7.8.1) Using MP3 files for CD audio - -Use LAME or some other MP3 encoder to rip the cd audio tracks to files. -Name the files track1.mp3 track2.mp3 etc. ScummVM must be compiled with -MAD support to use this option. You will need to rip the file from the -CD as a WAV file, then encode the MP3 files in constant bit rate. This -can be done with the following LAME command line: - - lame -t -q 0 -b 96 track1.wav track1.mp3 - -#### 7.8.2) Using Ogg Vorbis files for CD audio - -Use oggenc or some other vorbis encoder to encode the audio tracks to -files. Name the files track1.ogg track2.ogg etc. ScummVM must be -compiled with vorbis support to use this option. You will need to rip -the files from the CD as a WAV file, then encode the vorbis files. This -can be done with the following oggenc command line with the value after -q specifying the desired quality from 0 to 10: - - oggenc -q 5 track1.wav - -#### 7.8.3) Using Flac files for CD audio - -Use flac or some other flac encoder to encode the audio tracks to files. -Name the files track1.flac track2.flac etc. If your filesystem only -allows three letter extensions, name the files track1.fla track2.fla -etc. ScummVM must be compiled with flac support to use this option. You -will need to rip the files from the CD as a WAV file, then encode the -flac files. This can be done with the following flac command line: - - flac --best track1.wav - -Remember that the quality is always the same, varying encoder options -will only affect the encoding time and resulting filesize. - -#### 7.8.4) Compressing MONSTER.SOU with MP3 - -You need LAME, and our `compress_scumm_sou` utility from the -scummvm-tools package to perform this task, and ScummVM must be compiled -with MAD support. - - compress_scumm_sou monster.sou - -Eventually you will have a much smaller monster.so3 file, copy this file -to your game directory. You can safely remove the monster.sou file. - -#### 7.8.5) Compressing MONSTER.SOU with Ogg Vorbis - -As above, but ScummVM must be compiled with OGG support. Run: - - compress_scumm_sou --vorbis monster.sou - -This should produce a smaller monster.sog file, which you should copy to -your game directory. Ogg encoding may take a considerable longer amount -of time than MP3, so have a good book handy. - -#### 7.8.6) Compressing MONSTER.SOU with Flac - -As above, but ScummVM must be compiled with Flac support. Run: - - compress_scumm_sou --flac monster.sou - -This should produce a smaller monster.sof file, which you should copy to -your game directory. Remember that the quality is always the same, -varying encoder options will only affect the encoding time and resulting -file size. Playing with the blocksize (`-b <value>`), has the biggest -impact on the resulting file size -- 1152 seems to be a good value for -those kind of soundfiles. Be sure to read the encoder documentation -before you use other values. - -#### 7.8.7) Compressing music/sfx/speech in AGOS games - -Use our `compress_agos` utility from the scummvm-tools package to -perform this task. You can choose between multiple target formats, but -note that you can only use each if ScummVM was compiled with the -respective decoder support enabled. - -``` - compress_agos effects (For Acorn CD version of Simon 1) - compress_agos simon (For Acorn CD version of Simon 1) - compress_agos effects.voc (For DOS CD version of Simon 1) - compress_agos simon.voc (For DOS CD version of Simon 1) - compress_agos simon.wav (For Windows CD version of Simon 1) - compress_agos simon2.voc (For DOS CD version of Simon 2) - compress_agos simon2.wav (For Windows CD version of Simon 2) - compress_agos mac (For Macintosh version of Simon 2) - - compress_agos voices1.wav (For Windows 2CD/4CD version of Feeble) - compress_agos voices2.wav (For Windows 2CD/4CD version of Feeble) - compress_agos voices3.wav (For Windows 4CD version of Feeble) - compress_agos voices4.wav (For Windows 4CD version of Feeble) - - compress_agos Music (For Windows version of Puzzle Pack) -``` - -For Ogg Vorbis add `--vorbis` to the options, i.e. - - compress_agos --vorbis - -For Flac add `--flac` and optional parameters, i.e. - - compress_agos --flac - -Eventually you will have a much smaller \*.mp3, \*.ogg or \*.fla file, -copy this file to your game directory. You can safely remove the old -file. - -#### 7.8.8) Compressing speech/music in Broken Sword - -The `compress_sword1` tool from the scummvm-tools package can encode -music and speech to MP3, Ogg Vorbis as well as Flac. The easiest way to -encode the files is simply copying the executable into your BS1 -directory (together with the lame encoder) and run it from there. This -way, it will automatically encode everything to MP3. Afterwards, you can -manually remove the SPEECH?.CLU files and the wave music files. - -Running `compress_sword1 --vorbis` will compress the files using Ogg -Vorbis instead of MP3. - -Running `compress_sword1 --flac` will compress the files using Flac -instead of MP3. - -Use `compress_sword1 --help` to get a full list of the options. - -#### 7.8.9) Compressing speech/music in Broken Sword II - -Use our `compress_sword2` utility from the scummvm-tools package to -perform this task. You can choose between multiple target formats, but -note that you can only use each if ScummVM was compiled with the -respective decoder support enabled. - -``` - compress_sword2 speech1.clu - compress_sword2 music1.clu -``` - -For Ogg Vorbis add --vorbis to the options, i.e. - - compress_sword2 --vorbis - -Eventually you will have a much smaller \*.cl3 or \*.clg file, copy this -file to your game directory. You can safely remove the old file. - -It is possible to use Flac compression by adding the `--flac` option. -However, the resulting \*.clf file will actually be larger than the -original. - -Please note that `compress_sword2` will only work with the four -speech/music files in Broken Sword II. It will not work with any of the -other \*.clu files, nor will it work with the speech files from Broken -Sword. - -### 7.9) Output sample rate - -The output sample rate tells ScummVM how many sound samples to play per -channel per second. There is much that could be said on this subject, -but most of it would be irrelevant here. The short version is that for -most games 22050 Hz is fine, but in some cases 44100 Hz is preferable. -On extremely low-end systems you may want to use 11025 Hz, but it is -unlikely that you have to worry about that. - -To elaborate, most of the sounds ScummVM has to play were sampled at -either 22050 Hz or 11025 Hz. Using a higher sample rate will not -magically improve the quality of these sounds. Hence, 22050 Hz is fine. - -Some games use CD audio. If you use compressed files for this, they are -probably sampled at 44100 Hz, so for these games that may be a better -choice of sample rate. - -When using the AdLib, FM Towns, PC Speaker or IBM PCjr music drivers, -ScummVM is responsible for generating the samples. Usually 22050 Hz will -be plenty for these, but there is at least one piece of AdLib music in -Beneath a Steel Sky that will sound a lot better at 44100 Hz. - -Using frequencies in between is not recommended. For one thing, your -sound card may not support it. In theory, ScummVM should fall back on a -sensible frequency in that case, but don't count on it. More -importantly, ScummVM has to resample all sounds to its output frequency. -This is much easier to do well if the output frequency is a multiple of -the original frequency. - -## 8.0) Configuration file - -By default, the configuration file is saved in, and loaded from: - -**Windows Vista/7:** - -`\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\ScummVM\scummvm.ini` - -**Windows 2000/XP:** - -`\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\ScummVM\scummvm.ini` - -**Windows NT4:** - -`<windir>\Profiles\username\Application Data\ScummVM\scummvm.ini` - -**Windows 95/98/ME:** - -`<windir>\scummvm.ini` - -If an earlier version of ScummVM was installed under Windows, the -previous default location of `<windir>\scummvm.ini` will be kept. - -**Unix:** - -We follow the XDG Base Directory Specification.

To do so add a screenshotpath value under -the `[scummvm]` section: - - [scummvm] - screenshotpath=/path/to/screenshots/ - -The default location, when no screenshot path is defined in the config -file, depends on the OS: - - - Windows: In `Users\username\My Pictures\ScummVM Screenshots`. - - macOS X: On the Desktop. - - Other unices: In the XDG Pictures user directory, - e.g. `~/Pictures/ScummVM Screenshots` - - Any other OS: In the current directory. - -## 10.0) Compiling - -For an up-to-date overview on how to compile ScummVM for various -platforms, please consult our Wiki, in particular this page: - -<https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM> - -If you are compiling for Windows, Linux or Mac OS X, you need SDL-1.2.2 -or newer (older versions may work, but are unsupported), and a supported -compiler. Several compilers, including GCC, mingw and recent versions of -Microsoft Visual C++ are supported. If you wish to use MP3-compressed CD -tracks or .SOU files, you will need to install the MAD library; likewise -you will need the appropriate libraries for Ogg Vorbis and FLAC -compressed sound. For compressed save states, zlib is required. - -Some parts of ScummVM, particularly scalers, have highly optimized -versions written in assembler. If you wish to use this option, you will -need to install nasm assembler (see <https://www.nasm.us/>). Note that -we currently only have x86 MMX optimized versions, and they will not -compile on other processors. - -On Windows, you can define `USE_WINDBG` and attach WinDbg to browse -debug messages (see -<https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/debugger/index>). - - - Windows: - - - MinGW: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/MinGW> - - - Visual Studio (MSVC): - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/Visual_Studio> - - - Linux: - - - GCC: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/GCC> - - - AmigaOS4: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/AmigaOS4> - - - Apple iPhone: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/iPhone> - - - Atari/FreeMiNT: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/Atari/FreeMiNT> - - - Bada/Tizen: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/Bada/Tizen> - - - BeOS/ZETA/Haiku: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/BeOS/ZETA/Haiku> - - - Google Android: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/Android> - - - HP webOS: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/WebOS> - - - Mac OS: - - - Mac OS X: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/macOS> - - - Mac OS X 10.2.8: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/Mac_OS_X_10.2.8> - - - Mac OS X Crosscompiling: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/Mac_OS_X_Crosscompiling> - - - Maemo: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/Maemo> - - - Nintendo Wii and Gamecube: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/Wii> - - - Raspberry Pi: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/RPI> - - - Sega Dreamcast: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/Dreamcast> - - - Sony Playstation: - - - Sony PlayStation 2: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/PlayStation_2> - - - Sony PlayStation 3: - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/PlayStation_3#Building_from_source> - - - Sony PlayStation Portable: - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/PlayStation_Portable> - - - Symbian: - - - Please refer to: - <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/Symbian> - -## 11.0) Changelog - -Please refer to our extensive Changelog [here](NEWS.md). - -## 12.0) Credits - -Please refer to our extensive Credits list [here](AUTHORS). - ------ - -> Good Luck and Happy Adventuring\! -> The ScummVM team. -> <https://www.scummvm.org/> +## Contributing +Generally Scummvm contributions should be made directly to the [main scummvm/scummvm repo](https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm). If you instead would like to contribute RG 350-specific logic and don't feel that the main scummvm line is the right place for that code, then feel free to make a pull request or reach out directly but keep in mind that this fork is mainly just a preview fork of code that is not yet stable enough for the main scummvm repo. |
