A question. Do this same game data get recognised on your desktop?

comment:2 by SF/youngbilly, 10 years ago

Hi - yes, it works fine. The GOG version starts DOSBOX. I've tried clean installs of the game and recopying the GOG unpacked game folder a few times, plus the last couple of days of ScummVM builds. Same result.

comment:3 by SF/youngbilly, 10 years ago

Apologies if I misunderstood - the game works with daily build for Windows on my PC but not with the ARM build on my mobile. Same game folder.

OK - LordHoto on the forum says 'the Android daily build does not include ZVision. It is missing the FreeType2 dependency which is (set as) required for ZVision.'

Summary: Zork Nemesis on android - no game found → ZVISION Cannot be compiled on Android - FreeType2 isn't available

So, the actual issue is that FreeType2 isn't available on the Android port. Assigning this to fuzzie

This is not a ScummVM defect but a limitation of the old build system which will be addressed with the new Buildbot, which includes a FreeType library for Android.

Component: Engine: ZVision → Port: Android

FreeType is now installed on the Buildbot for both ARMv5 and AArch64, as mentioned in ​https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/pull/1278. It's still missing on x86 and Ouya, though.

All Android toolchains on the buildbot now have FreeType, as well as any other libraries they were previously missing. As such, this issue can now be closed.
