Short: Amiga port of ScummVM 2.5.1 (68060) Author: NovaCoder Uploader: novacoder yahoo co uk Type: game/misc Version: 2.5.1.05 Replaces: game/misc/ScummVM_RTG.lha Architecture: m68k-amigaos >= 3.1.0 Distribution: Aminet Kurz: Amiga Portierung von ScummVM Overview: ScummVM is an interpreter that allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games on an Amiga (provided you have their data files). The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the games, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed! This Amiga ScummVM port only supports certain ScummVM game engines (see About Box within the ScummVM Launcher). Requirements: 1) An RTG Amiga. 2) 68060 processor or better. 3) 64MB of RAM. 4) AHI installed and configured (see links section below). 5) Music packs for digital music playback (see links section below). 6) CAMD library installed and configured for native MIDI playback (see links section below). 7) The original games (or demos). Features: * Double buffered 16 bit SFX and speech * Fullscreen and window mode support * MIDI music emulation (no hardware required) * Double buffered 256 color graphics * External MIDI support (using the CAMD library) * 16 bit GUI (converted to 8 bit in real-time!) * Screen shake * Back ported OS4, MorphOS and AROS code * Compressed music support (OGG/WAV) Configuration: The you will need to use the ScummVM Launcher to update the paths (save/theme/extra). You can also manually add the following to your own INI file: The 'close_wb' configuration option can be used to close the Workbench. The 'mixer_priority' configuration option can be used set the mixer thread priority. The 'enable_mode_promotion' configuration option can be used to promote screen modes to the standard 320x240 and 640x480 resolutions. There are various configuration options within the ScummVM Launcher (see the official ScummVM readme for more details). When running from the Shell you must specify a stack of at least 300,000. The AHI device used will be the one setup in your AHI Prefs (unit 0). You will need to install the CAMD library if you want to use an external MIDI device. You will need to have 320x240 and 640x480 RTG 8 bit screen modes available to Workbench (fullscreen mode). The mouse will automatically lock (CTRL+m to unlock when running in a window). Performance Considerations: 1) If you have a Blizzard you should really be using BlizKick, Apollo users should be using RemApollo. 2) Fast File System is actually really slow, use PFS3 060 instead. 3) Playing OGG compressed music on a real Amiga will be very slow, try using WAV files instead (or MIDI). 4) Use v4.18 of AHI as the later versions are too slow on real hardware. 5) If you are using Paula stick with the 'FAST' 8 bit Mono/Stereo++ modes. 6) Try reducing the audio playback frequency down to 8k if you're still having performance issues. 7) Running in a window with an 8 bit Workbench screen mode will be very slow. Limitations: 1) FLAC compressed audio/music files are not supported.
