I've almost finished The Dig on MorphOS. The problems with Monkey Island was fixed in CVS a long time ago. Anyways, these problems are not related to porting.

Hmm, that's strange; what version of ScummVM-MOS do you use? And did you mean The Curse of the Monkey Island? It would be gold to get that one running under scummvm

I use the one from the Amiga ScummVM site. The Curse of Monkey Island is still broken, I played that one in Linux using a CVS snapshot. The Dig worked perfectly in MOS though.

Ah, the Amiga version instead of the MOS version; have downloaded it and will try it right away -> thanx.

Eh, no, the MorphOS version from that site.
http://www.sebelinteractive.de/scummvm/

Beneath a steel sky and Flight of the amazon queen are freeware, so i guess that could be bundled

These MorphOS version is the crap SDL version, why use these ####?

One thing that i could like too is a launcher that can be added screenshots, the solutions/guides, various versions of the game on the same game section (by example, zak mackracken and the various versions, monkey island 1 and the various versions...)...

Why don't you request those features on the ScummVM site? I doubt any of the developers frequent morphzone. Sourceforge has a feature request tool.

Hi everybody,

I just downloaded ScummVM V0.50 MOS-version from that site (a TGZ-file) and also Beneath a Steel Sky.
BASS doesn't work. SCummVM complains about the sound.
I've also tried the following disk version games (just copied the files into 1 directory):

- The Secret of Monkey Island 1: doesn't work
- The Secret of Monkey Island 2: Works
- Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis: Works
- Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders: doesn't work

The games that don't work have a different structure as the games that work. The working games are numbered from 000 to ....

I've read that Zak McKracken does work. I'll go read again on the site

Bye,

Spidey

Just read that all files need to be in the same directory, so I copied the files from the directory "Rooms" into the root-dir.

Zak McKracken and Monkey Island 1 work now
But, no sound at the moment.

Bye,

Spidey

@Dholm

Oops Well, I do allready have the 0.5.0 MOS version (dloaded it from somewhere else though), but I will give this one also a try. I have tried the WarpOS version, wich is version 5.1r2. Doesn't seem to work all that well (only managed to run DOTT; other games crashed rather hard) but it does have a kind of a GUI. Maybe something to consider for ScummVM MOS 0.6.0? Further more, the WarpOS version claims to run Curse of the Monkey Island...darn, if I only could find those cd's! Ah well, good excuse to clean out my room

Hi!
I was able to play "Curse" till the end with the last MOS-port...
At the beginning there was a problem with the cannons, but
everything else worked....
(as default Curse opens with some scaler-routine, which blows the resolution up to about 1280x1024 (or similar).
There's a hotkey to deactivate this....

It does - use the PC VGA version.

You need the FM-Towns 256 color version.

Quote:

Last published MOS version was 0.5.1.

Quote:

ScummVM features a launcher screen since IIRC 0.5.0 - it should appear automatically if you just launch it without any arguments.

amidi - Uses the MorphOS MIDI system, for MorphOS users

What is this? Some internal midi driver of MOS?

BTW: Does the MOS0.5.0 version run the CD-version of Beneath a Steel
Sky (on the page mentioned earlier). It just crashed here, so I am
wondering if someone got a trick to make it work :)

Hi tomjoad,

I love Scumm!!!!!!!:-D

(had to say that)

As you noticed, I corrected the not working games-part in the second post

You mention that MOS is now version 0.5.1, is that the version we can download from the Scumm website (it states 0.5.0, hences my question)

Bye,

Spidey

I did have some problems running the MOS and WOS versions with Monkey Island 2 (I've got the 11 disk version).

Saving is not a problem but loading just freezes the game.
I tried the same with the 68K version and that works.

Bye,

Spidey

Hi,

Just tried MonkeyIsland 1 and Zak McKracken with these versions.
Unfortunately the same loading problem occurs.

Bye,

Spidey

Hmm,

I see we need Amidi2 to be able to hear music with Beneath a Steel Sky and Simon the Sorcerer 1.

Searched the net with Google, the only Amidi is version 1.05 for 68k.

Bye,

Spidey

But "the latest thing for midi on MorphOS" is Etude, no?

Hi timofonic,

You´re right. Just searched some old threads and in one from 24 march 2003 tomjoad mentioned that he couldn't release Etude at that time.

Oh well, now just to figure out how to start Beneath a Steel Sky without music support

Bye,

Spidey

Etude will be integrated on MorphOS? It could be too nice!

Uuh, I didn't say that it would be integrated into MorphOS, only that tomjoad couldn't release that software at the time of that thread.

I just saw at ScummVM.Org a MOS version of 0.5.1
And there are more games there free for downloading.

Bye,

Spidey

@tomjoad

Errr, dloaded the 5.1 version for MOS....oops Well, how was I supposed to know ? -> thanx for pointing out! The Dig now runs very well indeed (but phew, does it s#*ck) -> still can't find my Curse of the Monkey Island cd's!

@Stevo

The Dig sucks? It's a very good game!!!

@timofonic

A very good game? Maybe compared to the Larry adventures, but it is by far the worst of the LucasArts adventures (well, Monkey Island 4 comes close though )
