WEB: HUMONGOUS: Some Macintosh demos are missing resource data

Description (last modified by antoniou79)

In the Demos ScummVM page, three (3) Macintosh demos for Humongous Entertainment games are missing resource data (resource fork which should be in a _MACOSX folder in the package).

ScummVM is able to detect the demos and Add Game completes successfully. However, upon launching the demos the following error is shown and the game exits.
"Could not extract cursor 102!"

The three demos which are affected by this issue are:

  • Let's explore the Airport with Buzzy
  • Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo (Macintosh Demo)
  • Freddi Fish 1: The Case of the Missing Kelp Seeds (Macintosh Demo)

The packages for these demos are missing the _MACOSX folder which probably contains resource data as explained here:
https://gotoes.org/sales/Zip_Mac_Files_For_PC/What_Is__MACOSX.php

The other Macintosh demos available from the ScummVM site, do indeed have a _MACOSX folder with resource data and do launch without issues with ScummVM.
