This is possible via different engines. However I don't see Tex Murphy games support. Is it because of lack of interest by developers or there is another reason? [12:38] well...

[12:40] http://www.mobygames.com/game/amazon-guardians-of-eden [12:40] this one [12:40] there's a good start of an engine for, iirc, mean streets [12:42] the problem is that at some point, a DAT file was added to Amazon. I started shouting, rolling on the floor, then I gave up reversing mean streets just on time to avoid to throw my PC through the window [12:43] so the main reason this one and Countdown are not supported is: because DAT!!!1! [12:48] so to put simply you couldn't reverse mean streets internal data representation format? [12:48] no, the DAT file is in Amazon engine [12:49] the fact it was added made my life impossible, so I can't keep on working decently on Mean Streets and Countdown, so I stopped [12:49] Mean Streets was playable for several rooms, and now there's the DAT file it's screwed. It's really a pain [12:49] oh well during DOS era this was common thing. Adding data to the engine itself [12:50] no it's not data in the binary, it's a file we use in stable engines to put hardcoded things [12:50] when the engine is not mature, imho, it's just a terrible pain in the back [12:51] someone will eventually pick it where I left it... who knows [12:51] okey I'm a bit confused why would anyone do that [12:51] it's like putting game data inside the engine [12:52] I think it's wrong on many levels [12:53] I'm no game developer myself but I'm long time pro software developer [12:53] and I think same principles of software development apply [12:54] You don't mix your code with your data. [12:54] If you do that, it's wrong [12:55] I think Amazon engine needs to be refactored [13:21] Balas (546c7ac5@gateway/web/freenode/ip.84.108.122.197) joined #scummvm.
