FREESCAPE: Add "Virtual Worlds" Atari ST support

Reported by: laenion Owned by: neuromancer
Priority: normal Component: Engine: Freescape
Version: Keywords:
Cc: Game: Driller

Description

It seems the European Atari ST version of "Virtual Worlds" (a compilation containing "Driller", "Total Eclipse", "Castle Master" and "Castle Master 2: The Crypt") has a different format. Taking https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php?title=Driller as an example the second disk containing Driller doesn't contain any program called x.prg; instead the following files can be found:

[       3584 Jan  1  1970]  .
├── [     122620 Apr 22  1987]  1.TEC
├── [       1024 Apr 22  1987]  AUTO
│   └── [        149 Apr 22  1987]  MLOAD.PRG
├── [     225666 Apr 22  1987]  C.PRG
├── [        706 Apr 22  1987]  D.PAK
├── [     158158 Apr 22  1987]  DRIL.ALL
├── [      33946 Apr 22  1987]  L.PAK
├── [       1024 Apr 22  1987]  MENU.BIN
├── [        704 Apr 22  1987]  T.PAK
└── [      48128 Apr 22  1987]  TEC.ALL

It seems this is another version needing explicit support?

Hi,

Thanks a lot for opening this issue (and sorry for the delay, I was not notified about it). Unfortunately, I do not have access to this release. It could be the case that one of the files can be directly used, or it will require some tweaking. The PAK files suggests that the files are packed, but it will require to inspect the files in order to more forward.
