LOOM TurboGrafx-16 does not handle font drop shadows accurately — at Initial Version

Reported by: ATMcashpoint Owned by:
Priority: normal Component: Engine: SCUMM
Version: Keywords: fonts
Cc: ATMcashpoint Game: Loom

Description

In the TurboGrafx-16 version of LOOM on original hardware, the font drop shadows omit any shadows below descenders in letters like lowercase G and lowercase Y. ScummVM doesn't reproduce this.

Also, it seems that when text is displayed above both animations and background areas that are redrawn, the drop shadows disappear entirely, which ScummVM doesn't do either. (This isn't as noticeable as it would be in other versions, though, since many dialogue lines that appear on top of the game background on DOS appear here on the black space at the bottom of the screen, with player control taken away for their duration.)
