Latest version of ScummVM ported to AGA

[nizce]

Hi!

Anyone know if there a ScummVM release compiled for the LC060(no FPU)?
Or do I need to stick to the 030 version?

Seems like the 060 was recently updated but 030 is quite old.
Think I’ve seen somewhere that the 060 version had more features enabled, so really like to run the latest with most features

Have you tried running SoftIEEE (software FPU)?

Thanks! I’ll try that and see if it works!

I tried SoftIEEE and while it works it seems to stall quite often in the gui(can't move the cursor for 5 seconds every now and then). And the speech and visuals seems to be off sync(for example Sam & Max).
But perhaps that's the same for a "non-LC" CPU

Would it be possible to compile the 060 version(ScummVM 1.9) for the LC(without FPU)?
Or am I stuck with the 030 release based on Scummvm 1.5?

I'm not a programmer but could try myself, but can't find the sourcecode.

PS: not complaining, just want to know

new version 2.0.1.01 from Novacoder! (aminet)

all seems works like a charm except MIDI (CAMD)

[NovaCoder]

Whoops, did i break camd again

I'll take a look when I get time.

You did actually select the general MIDI music device didn't you in the launcher gui?

[Aardvark]

CAMD seems to be not working on the AGA version only.

[NovaCoder]

Okay, I'll fix it

Hi! Novacoder, CAMD fixed in the 2.0.1.02 version. thanks again

[NovaCoder]

No worries, I managed to fix it but only by removing some new features I liked, I'll try again when I get back from holiday

I second that, with popularity and accessibility of LC060's for use with TF1260, it's crying for non-FPU binary, either fresh 030 version or LC060-dedicated

I'm not sure if this has been discussed before but I have recently discovered the talkie version of Monkey Island and it works on the Amiga version of SCUMM (I am using a V1200). Amazing!!!

Yup (May 2022)

And I thought I had discovered something

But still amazed it just worked!

What would be even better if the voices could be added to the real Amiga version...

Sorry if this was mentioned already !
But the recently released Gobliiins 5 works with the current (master) ScummVM versions. Would probably need some hi-spec'ed Amiga but it would be great !

Also he is developing Gobliins 6 (yep, there are 2 "i"s, W & F are back !)

Just uploaded a new version to Aminet (v2.0.1.03), this version adds back in those little improvements I wanted to make but this time with a working CAMD driver too.

My updateScreen() method has been hacked to death, took me ages to get this thing working well for all possible combinations

void SdlGraphicsManager::updateScreen() {
#ifndef NDEBUG
    debug(12, "SdlGraphicsManager::updateScreen()");
#endif

    if (_paletteDirtyEnd != 0) {
        SDL_SetColors(_hwscreen, _currentPalette + _paletteDirtyStart,
		_paletteDirtyStart,
		_paletteDirtyEnd - _paletteDirtyStart);

	// Reset.
        _paletteDirtyStart = 255;
        _paletteDirtyEnd = 0;
    }
    
    if (_screenDirty) {                    
        if (_overlayVisible) {            
            if (_mouseCursor.visible && _mouseCursor.captured) {
                drawMouse();
            }
            
            SDL_WritePixels(_overlayscreen8.getPixels(), _videoMode.overlayHeight);
        } else {
            if (_videoMode.mode == GFX_NORMAL) {
                if (_mouseCursor.visible && _mouseCursor.captured) {
                    drawMouse();
                }
                
                if (_videoMode.aspectRatioCorrection || _newShakePos != 0) {
					if (_newShakePos != 0) {
						// Set the top of the dest screen to black.
						memset(_tmpscreen.getPixels(), 0, _videoMode.hardwareWidth * _newShakePos);
					}

					uint screenHeight = _videoMode.aspectRatioCorrection ? real2Aspect(_videoMode.screenHeight) : _videoMode.screenHeight;

						} else {

                    uint screenHeight = _videoMode.aspectRatioCorrection ? real2Aspect(_videoMode.screenHeight) : _videoMode.screenHeight;

						}

						CopyMemQuick(src, _tmpscreen.getBasePtr(0, (y + _newShakePos)), _videoMode.screenWidth);
					}

					scale(_videoMode.scaleFactor, _hwscreen->pixels, _videoMode.hardwareWidth, _tmpscreen.getPixels(), _videoMode.screenWidth,

I haven't managed to have either CDDA tracks or MT-32 music with the latest 030 version on Aminet (1.5). Is that normal? Can somebody confirm that it doesn't work?
I can't see anything to enable CD audio, is there something to do to activate it?
So far I've got Monkey Island VGA running great, but without music, It would be amazing to solve this!
Regarding the MT-32 I manage to make sounds using the MT-32 editor so it works, and the midi interface works, but whatever I tweak in ScummVM, no luck.
Please help

What's the difference between the builds 'ScummVM 2.2.0' by Arti & 'ScummVM 2.0.1.05' by NovaCoder ? Which is better ?

You need to install CAMD to get general MIDI working, check the readme file.

This setup video will help

Version 1.5 is very old and doesn't support CD audio playback, your 030 would be too slow to decompress the data even if it was enabled.
