Monkey Island

LaundroMat · 22 August 2003, 09:40

I'm a bit ashamed to admit it, but I can't get past the first screen in Secret of Monkey Island (and knowing I bloody finished the game back in the days).

I'm at the harbour town, in front of the Scumm bar, but I can't get in. Neither can I exit the screen to the right. Is there a 'special' button to exit a location, is it WinUAE or am I just plain stupid (I'm guessing the latter).

You have to open the door of the bar to get in

Guessing you've already tried that, I'd say the version you are running is simple broken.

As far as i can remember you only have to open the door, then click in the room to walk in. If you can't walk to the right either then maybe your copy is messed up. I don't think WinUAE has a problem with the game, but it may be possible it is trying to load from a disk image which isn't present (or WinUAE thinks it is but for some reason there is a problem)?

Well in front of the scumm bar you should be able to just walk right, the screen should scroll with your movement. If it doesn't signs are that you might have a knackered version.

Either a broken/bugged version of MI OR problem using the mouse button (restart WinUAE) OR you are just kidding cause you think it's April OR you are playing a demo version... anyway..... I have completed MI on WinUAE.

2.5+3.7=6
