So here's something really cool I ran across. Apparently you can take Lucas Art's latest incarnation of The Secret of Monkey Island, and extract the new game files, sound track, and talkie pieces, and use them in ScummVM!

The down side is that we won't be able to use the upgraded graphics, andScummVM needs a slight tweak to the code in order to this to work as it should, but really never stopped loving the old graphics, so the addition of a TALKIE feature will be plenty enough to catch my interest.

I read that this was supposed to be added to the official source tree, but that was sometime last year and it still has not been added, though the modified source is available.

I found this discussion about the project, though to save you time, the intro is of course on page one, and the latest version of the file extraction package along with the ScummVM source tweaks are currently located on page 9.

Something to think about.

In the mean time, here's a peak of what the game is like with the hi-res graphics included.

Same with Monkey Island 2 btw.

2 does not work near as well though, at least not at this point.

BTW, page 8 has all the info on how to tweak ScummVM to make this work.

EDIT: I think I'll have a crack at this my self. I need to learn a bit about coding anyhow. Well something beyond Turbo Basic. :)

Alright, now where can I find the MorphOS 1.2.1 Source Code?

EDIT: Found.

Any reason you're repeating what XDelusion and I already posted?

i think fab can be add this patch to the scummvm morphos in a future update

Fab is a little to busy to do this atm, but he said it should be easy.

I'm going to give it a stab (even though I pretty much have no idea what I'm doing), I'm just waiting on FAB to get back with me about the GCC dependencies the SDK seems to be asking for.

Sorry, I've been busy with my 1200 (and dead 600), so I've not had a chance to get back and play with this yet, though I did write the authors and beg them to add in official support as they said they would...

...but no response. :/
