Hi,
Thanx for the new version. I m unable to install, as I get this: ---------------- Copyfiles: problem with source file/drawer "ScummVM AGA.info" in line 85 DOS Error Type: Unable to locate a file or drawer --------------------- I am using SFS as filesystem, btw thx chris ...Also, when I am trying to run it (without install it) the application runs and stop. The log file reports: "Could not find a valid screen mode". Should the application display a screen mode request on start? thx Last edited by TCD; 23 December 2010 at 11:43.

Hi,
I can see the screen requester when I set the tooltype as: AUTO_SELECT_VIDEO=FALSE Then I see on the requester, ONLY the cybervision modes, but I have too, the VGA-only,PAL and Multisync in my monitors folder. The program then stops producing this error on the log file: Could not locate the first screen buffer! thx chris |

That's interesting, so if it can't see any modes but the cybervision modes it would explain why it doesn't work I guess. You should really try the RTG version if you have an RTG system, the AGA version is meant for AGA users only. No not yet I'm afraid, maybe one day it will.

I made some tests on WinUAE and found out that the Scumm AGA & games run well only if I have Multiscan modes enabled. It probably does not work on PAL-only systems, where white-gray screen happens.
I unfortunatelly cannot run Multiscan modes on real hardware, only PAL. |

I've just made a clean AHI setup and upgraded ScumVM to this latest version and everything runs smoother and more stable. Paula sounds works OK. Even with "No music" as a default you get music in early games (Maniac Mansion and Zak Mckraken). I guess music worked in a different way in them. PC Speaker emulation goes OK in some other games (Loom, Monkey Island...) but will crash in the most modern ones (Fate Of Atlantis, DOTT, Sam & Max...). In these last ones, I haven´t been able to make music work, but voices and sound effects work perfectly. Setting auto-video to false makes ScumVM prompts for a screen resolution offering PAL low-res as a default. This works even better in my monitor than multiscan modes, as the image fits perfectly and there is no colour messing (as I mentioned, for reasons of its own, my monitor doesn't like multiscan modes). Hey! Even DOTT and Sam & Max plays noticeably smoother now! -- |

What music unit are you using with your new AHI setup? you should be using Paula 8 bit stereo (see my earlier screen grab). Can you also try Simon the Sorcerer 1 & 2...they seem to run ok for me under WinUae. What audio rate are you using? You can just turn off the auto audio setting and then choose 8 bit Paula and say 11k and see what that performs like on you system. |

And now, getting into totally minor nuisances mode: launcher palette gets corrupted when coming back from games, which isn´t even noticeable most times save when you come back from old EGA stuff -- |

hiya,
yep can confirm that it should play midi music without any hardware although it does require a lot of cpu Thanks for the feedback |

Hello NovaCoder and company...
Just one question. I am preparing to try ScummVM port for 030 these days (as soon as I catch some time) and I have one question/suggestion Can users who has FPU on 030 board gain some speed with FPU usage (I suppose it should help in emulation) If that is the case, I think you could post two 030 versions on Aminet, 1. 030 +FPU 2. 030 noFPU It is pity not to be used if available and can help. |

try the new 030 version from aminet, set auto select audio and video to off
it might just be that it needs 3.9 though? |

I finally managed it to work for me. Works fine under OS 3.1 on plain PAL.
All the freezes (white gray screen only) were caused by the music on. When switched to No music in Options, games run fine. Not even the 060 procesor is able to do continous midi music here. For me the latest 030 version provides better sound output, on older port sound effects were jerky. |

@ Foxman
I have basicaly the same configuration here, but I have latest AHI installed, if you havent allready install AHI too. For me its now working, the 030 version (amiga port v1.1.1) works best for me (without gurus). And of course select "No music" in the main options. |

Do you mean it runs in the GUI for 5-10 seconds or it runs a game for 10 seconds? Have you tried to run a game without music yet?

I've just put a new 060 version in the Zone, can you give it a go on your 060 and see if it runs any quicker than the 030 version. You should also try playing with the settings, if you've only got Paula you should use 8 bit (without any +) and at the most 12k and then you should try changing the player callback frequency to say 16. To test MIDI playback you should use DOTT as Sam and Max is a real system killer, you can also try Full Throttle because it doesn't seem to use the MIDI emulator. |
