ScummSpeaks v3 r5 has bee nreleased. Add (hacky) suport for Curse of Monkey Island (CoMI) – note that you should only use the exported BUN file, and ignore the TAB file (because the sound files are split across two BUN files, and while you can load the one LANGUAGE.TAB file which contains mappings for both [...]
EDIT 2012/04/23: This post was originally going to be the first in a series describing how to convert a static website into one that makes use of dynamic (server-side) technologies.

After nearly two years since I poked around in Robin Hood’s guts (I’m referring to the game, of course), I got the urge to investigate further, and now have a rough idea of how the data in the rules files is stored. I will be discussing the format based on the “ERULES.PRG” file, which contains [...]
I’ve heard whispers that The Clue! is being considered for inclusion in ScummVM. I’d love if it was. This got me looking into the source code for The Clue!, which was released to the public quite a few years ago. It looks like there was a “Profidisk” expansion released for the game, but only for [...]
It seems there was a problem with the last build of ScummPacker. I’m not sure why, possibly because I did it on a different computer than usual.
