[07:33] <grogbot> [discord] <gu3> Screenshot Friday is here, this time with a little surprice. The first "Eagle Eye Mystery" game (1993) is coming to ScummVM, thanks to the location of the original Borland symbols in one of the executables. The CD release game is already fully playable (I'm working on the floppy release, as it has some differences).

[21:05] <grogbot> [discord] <dreammaster> For my screenshot, I implemented the original save/load dialogs in Return of the Phantom. They're not enabled by default; there's another checkbox under the Game Options which can enable them. Other than that, I've been focused on trying to reimplement the Adlib sound driver from scratch. Although re-using the Rex Nebular version got sounds playing, there were various problems like sounds playing past the end of their data, and in
[21:05] <grogbot> [discord] <dreammaster> I took this as an opportunity to make a git branch, and experiment with how well Claude can produce C code from a disassembly, and give meaningful results. I had to go through several iterations, and point out mistakes and missing functions. But I finally got something halfway decent. Then I manually started cleaning it up and converting it to an ASound class like we have in Rex. It's all looking good, except that it doesn't produc
[21:05] <grogbot> [discord] <dreammaster> If I can get the sound working, and of course further cleanup and resolving outstanding build warnings, the only thing left for full support, I think, will be looking into the animation viewer used for the intro cutscene.

[22:09] <grogbot> [discord] <madmoose_dk> I ran the Dune music driver in my emulator and logged all the io writes and channel data updates, and used that to verify my version. It worked very well.
[22:18] <grogbot> [discord] <dreammaster> Right. Even if the Rex version isn't 100%, at least the first room music sounds okay, so comparing the two outputs should be enough for me to determine why the new version isn't producing sound at all.
