Description

Hi Marcus C, here is a report on how the 0.6.0 release behaves on my Dreamcast. I know it’s not a bug report – so feel free to delete it when you want – I hope it’s useful. Thanx for all the great work – and I hope all is well on your side.

All games are English In all games the picture is too much to the left – so in some games you can’t see the first letter. The Windows versions of Simon the Sorcerer don’t show up in the menu.

Maniac Mansion (enhanced): WORKS! Playable.

Day Of The Tentacle (TALKIE): There is a stutter in the game/sound. Playable.

Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders: WORKS! Playable.

Loom (256 color CD version) (TALKIE): WORKS! Playable.

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade(256): WORKS! Playable.

Indiana Jones 4 and the Fate of Atlantis (TALKIE): There is a stutter in the game/sound – but not much. Playable.

The Secret of Monkey Island (VGA CD): WORKS! Shows up 4 times in the menu. Playable.

Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's revenge: There is a stutter in the game/sound – but not much. Playable.

Curse of Monkey Island (TALKIE): There is a severe stutter in the game/sound - I dunno maybe it is worse in this release. You have to skip the intro to play the game otherwise the intro will crash. The game crashes when you fire the canon, with the robes cut. The game is not playable at all.

The Dig (TALKIE): There is a stutter in the game/sound. The game crashes in the cutscene after the explosives are set of on Attila. Almost playable.

Sam & Max (TALKIE): There is a stutter in the game/sound – but not much. Playable.

Full Throttle (TALKIE): There is a stutter in the game/sound. The game crashes early. Playable.

Beneath a Steel Sky (CD) (TALKIE): There is a stutter in the game/sound – but not much Can’t skip intro. Playable.

Flight of the Amazon Queen (original English/Spanish version with tbl-file): There is a stutter in the game/sound – but not much Can’t skip intro When you use the journal to ether save load and so on the pointer freezes - so no save Playable.

Flight of the Amazon Queen (Freeware Talkie): There is a stutter in the game/sound – but not much Can’t skip intro When you use the journal to ether save load and so on, the pointer freezes - so no save There is no speech and SFX – but music is present.

Broken Sword 1: There is a stutter in the game/sound. No cutscenes

Broken Sword 2: Shows up in the menu, but doesn’t start up yet.

Thanks for the report, Torben.

I'm closing the ticket since it isn't a bug report, but it will remain accessible in the system for future reference.

Great Marcus

By the way I forgot to say that there is an issue with the Broken Sword Cutscene Packs they dont work with the Dreamcast port, its the old problem with the media being compressed with some format, which the Dreamcast port doesnt support. Any solution to the problem?
