Quoting: dpanterCan you test if the lens flares are gone as well? Use different AA settings at night with bloom enabled.

Quoting: x_wingDoes this patch only fix the issue with Proton/DXVK?

Don't know if you follow the fdo bug or not, but I modified one of the shaders in the game to get rid of the NaN issue and it seems to be working fine here:

Drop the file in a dir and run the game with MESA_SHADER_READ_PATH=/path/to/shader/dir

Quoting: Perkeleen_VittupääI like the 4th one.

Heresy!

P.S: I like the 3rd one, also a heretic for the purists I guess :D

Curse of Monkey Island is my favorite of the series.

IMHO the best thing about Curse was Dominic Armato doing the voice for Guybrush. He repeated the role for the rest of the series, and the remakes too I think? Probably wouldn't have played Escape otherwise.

Quoting: PinballWizardWill it support the Star Trek 25th anniversary game?

There's an unfinished engine [External Link] for that title, but maybe you already knew that? Doesn't seem like it has seen much work lately though.

Sounds like a logical decision to merge the two.

Anyhow... Very cool about In Cold Blood. I had no idea it was a work in progress. Looks like it's another source code release and not an RE effort:

I actually started playing it a short while ago, mostly because it's the only one of Revolution games I have never played, but I guess I'll hold of and do a playtest when the next ScummVM version is due.

Quoting: fleskAurora: The Lost Medallion - a point and click adventure, which seems interesting, but I didn't achieve much before I got stuck. I wish there'd been a button to highlight hotspots, as I'm pretty sure I've missed something.

Thanks for the suggestion! Quite liked the demo, finished it using 2189 left clicks.

I'm not sure if you got stuck on the same place I did, finding the twins? I had to seek help from a walkthrough in the end. But the issue was more like a design bug than an actual puzzle I think.

Curiously the game does seem to have some kind of hint feature that kicked in (unnecessarily) when looking for one of the other kids.

Quoting: whizseRight, but can Windows do the i386 > amd64 transition? Debian can [External Link] :tongue:

(It's very much a work in progress, and not for the faint of heart, but it is possible.)

How I love having old stuff lurking somewhere on the disk. :D
I had my Debian up for some 10 years in 2010 and wanted to keep it, so this is how I've done it back then:

Nice!

I must admit, I chickened out and made a fresh install. Interestingly though, it there appears to be plans to make crossgrading an easier and supported upgrade path in Debian.

from windows 1.0 to windows 8.
i'm not sure if you can update from this 8 to an 10, but you're being spoiled too much at that point ;)

Quoting: gojulI stopped at the tutorial. Try to play it with an AZERTY keyboard and you'll understand. WASD on that kind of keyboard is not exactly convenient, and there's no way to remap the keys as of now. Sooo... waiting until a newer patch.

Possibly of interest?

(Though I would suggest carfully peruseing the source code before LD_PRELOADing random stuff of Github!)

Quoting: UnixOutlawI recently bought Blade Runner from Gog, thinking it was something "recent" (it wasn't 'recent'), anyway I downloaded the Linux version anyway, and it wouldn't run - then I figured out - "it's just a ScummvM game", so I can probably figure how to run it in ScummVM, but haven't gotten around to that yet...

Played Monkey Island 1 via ScummVM on my NTC PocketChip (single core ARM 512 RAM) a couple years back and that ran perfectly...

As long as the installer runs and you can locate the game data it shouldn't be harder than installing the ScummVM package in your distro and use "Add Game".
