Scumvm

[wietze]

Ive checked the builds from ThorstenOtto, apart from the reports already filed (clicking the launcher options crashing the launcher); I found that the speed is lower than the build Jury posted.

With the build Jury posted, Im able to get near 100% (or so it feels) gameplay with games like DoTT and SamnMax.

I wonder what the actual changes are that are done to get this build; and if it is possible to get these changes up the mainline of Scummvm, because they really make a difference!

[ThorstenOtto]

The build that Jury posted is the one from Miro, and his patches are applied. Maybe it's just a difference between 2.0.0 and current version? 2.0.0 was released Nov 2017, so there might have been quite some changes since then.

I tried builds from Miro and Otto on my FireBee. They are booth fast enough to be playable (under GEM). MIros is a bit faster.
But in booth builds it seems like right click with the mouse doesnt work
I tried to play Gobliiins 1 and the left click with the mouse works but the right one doesnt. Right click to the desktop works.
Does any one else has the same problem?

[Estrayk]

Isn't possible the crashes are caused by small stack?

Uh, that's possible. I've changed that now to 512k, hope it is enough.

Same links as before (with coldfire version added):

• 68k version, 16bit display
• 68020+ version, 16bit display
• ColdFire version, 16bit display
• 68k version, 8bit display
• 68020+ version, 8bit display
• ColdFire version, 8bit display

Testing 68020+ version, 8bit display at EXIT these warnings with Falcon ct60e Stock Videl - MagiC 6.20:

I'd definitely run it from a vfat/ext2 partition.

I'd definitely run it from a vfat/ext2 partition.

I'm pretty sure ScummVM works also from TOS (i.e. FAT) partition, but one needs to be careful when transferring the files, so that file names won't get messed up. E.g. Windows doesn't convert long file names so that TOS would find them when program requests file using a name longer than 8+3 chars.

Hatari includes a script for converting (truncating) the long file names to 8+3 names in a way which matches TOS: https://git.tuxfamily.org/hatari/hatari ... ert-dir.py

New version (2.1.0 available) !

hmmm it does not work, the program starts, but the mouse does not move at all.

[Eero Tamminen]

I tried it in Hatari and while 020 version doesn't work with TT-emulation(*), it does work OK, although very slowly, with Falcon emulation:

Code: Select all

hatari --machine falcon --tos tos404.img --dsp none  --fpu 68882 --addr24 off --ttram 256 -s 14 .

(*) It complains about missing 640x400 resolution, and doesn't work with EmuTOS on Falcon either, I guess because EmuTOS is missing support for HiColor resolutions.

When starting ScummVM, one needs to give config file for it "-c scummvm.cfg", as it would crash if I try to add and configure games inside its own GUI.

My config file looks like this:

Code: Select all

Still trying to get my MT32 to work with Scummvm. I posted a message on Scummvm's forums and got an answer from one of the devs it seems. But he prolly thought i was a developper :p
here is the link :

My message is at the end of the thread.

I'm not sure what to do. Any ideas ?
Since he was kind enough to answer and would like feedback, it would be nice if we could do something !
Thank you !

Btw, i checked that midi was working within VanillaMint, and it does. Used Ace Midi on the Falcon and played a midi file from Cubase 10 on my Pc.

Seems this one does not work either, could someone try it ? I might do something wrong.

I tried this yesterday, out of interest.

With environment variable SDL_VIDEODRIVER unset, it starts up but, as reported above, mouse doesn't work.

With SDL_VIDEODRIVER=GEM the mouse works for a short time, but no buttons work and I start to hear keyboard clicks through the speaker at increasing speed until it has to be reset.

I have yet to try Eero's config file trick.

Hi,
How to set the audio output to 44100Kz and to have long names under Freemint+Myaes?
Thanks

[Entuzio]

For the longnames go to Mint.cnf and edit the section with '#enable VFAT (longnames)'. VFAT is for example E and F drive -> VFAT=E,F
That's it. (Dont do this with the C:drive)

[marss]

Thanks

I have a working scummvm setup on EasyAraMint, but with an old version v1.7.
I have downloaded v2.5 build for Mint from Scummvm website, but it doesn't work : the interface loads but buttons do nothing.
Any clue?

[marss]

It works by pressing the buttons a little bit longer. It is what I noticed.

How to configurate Scummvm for Bladerunner?

[Faucon2001]

Thanks for the tip, it works now. In fact the issue is just with XaAES. With MyAES it works as expected.

[marss]

Any patched new version for beginning the year 2022?
