[00:16] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> For some reason Grim Fandango isnt working on my ScummVM Wii install, anyone know why what might be?
[00:16] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> its not detected
[00:16] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> pc ScummVM detects it
[00:17] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> I can see that ResidualVM used to work with it and its merged now so it would seem like this would too
[00:35] <grogbot_> [discord] <dreammaster> This is relevant: https://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?t=17054
[00:36] <grogbot_> [discord] <dreammaster> TLDR: The 3d games aren't generally supported on the Wii and other less powerful handheld systems.
[00:37] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> It was supported on residualvm
[00:37] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> and ran fine on there
[00:37] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> so i see no reason it wouldnt on wii
[00:38] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> only issue on wii was that there was some text/console stuff that would invade the screen for a split second every once in a while
[00:38] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> otherwise the game is entirely completable on residualvm
[00:40] <grogbot_> [discord] <ccawley2011> TinyGL currently requires a lot of RAM, which rules out a number of platforms such as the 3DS, and the Wii has a similar amount.
[00:41] <grogbot_> [discord] <ccawley2011> To run well, it'll likely need a custom renderer, which requires a lot of engine-specific code.
[00:41] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> I assume that tinygl wasn't what residual was using?
[00:41] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> because it ran fine on there
[00:42] <grogbot_> [discord] <ccawley2011> I don't remember how the Wii version of ResidualVM worked, but it was done by a third-party and was never part of ResidualVM officially.
[00:42] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> oh
[00:43] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> random magic man

[00:57] <grogbot_> [discord] <Digitall> The source can be found here: https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/wiihomebrews/residualvmwii.7z
[00:58] <grogbot_> [discord] <Digitall> Would need to work out where it forked off from residualvm and create a patch for it... if possible... and then try to work out if this could be applied to current ScummVM
[00:59] <grogbot_> [discord] <Digitall> It appears that it was a very early hack using SDL as the backend... and was not very stable https://gbatemp.net/threads/residualvm-wii-grim-fandango-interpreter.342214/
[01:04] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> it's not exactly lag free on the wii
[01:04] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> but it does run
[01:05] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> *I also couldn't figure out how to do point to click instead of manually controlling in residual Manny with the Wii remote dpad which wasn't exactly the most streamlined experience*
[01:06] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> *I also couldn't figure out how to do point to click instead of manually controlling Manny in residual with the Wii remote dpad which wasn't exactly the most streamlined experience* (edited)
[01:10] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> might just be how it is though, I've only played the remaster
[01:14] <grogbot_> [discord] <Digitall> The original is tank controls ... that is normal
[01:15] <grogbot_> [discord] <Digitall> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_controls if not aware

[02:03] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> doesn't work well with a wiimote imo
[02:03] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> game devs should have optimized for that smhing
[02:10] <grogbot_> [discord] <Digitall> You are welcome to return your copy for a full refund...

[08:00] <grogbot_> [discord] <bmsbotje> @pandorify there _was_ a fork of ResidualVM that added mouse controls to Grim, but it never made it to the main repo nor to ScummVM I think. https://github.com/tobiaspfaff/grim_mouse
[08:02] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> I couldn't find a build for the newest version anywhere
[08:02] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> ig I could do it myself
[08:03] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> not that I know how to do that though
[08:03] <grogbot_> [discord] <bmsbotje> I don't think that fork was ever built for non-desktop platforms
[08:04] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> I meant the desktop build
[08:05] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> 0.7 used to have a download page but it went down and never got archived
[08:05] <grogbot_> [discord] <pandorify> I was looking into it a little earlier
[08:11] <grogbot_> [discord] <retrodroidgaming> Positively surprised to see Crusader and Little Big Adventure on scummvm. Only one Crusader works for me, I think 'no regret' doesn't launch. But oh boy these titles are pretty

[16:33] <grogbot_> [discord] <ranaalihassnain> Hi @sev____ , I am following the official Wiki guide: https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/Visual_Studio.
[16:33] <grogbot_> [discord] <ranaalihassnain> My build is almost complete (93 succeeded), but I'm stuck on the final project with an SDL.h: No such file or directory error. I have set the SCUMMVM_LIBS variable to F:\ScummVM_Libraries and verified that SDL.h exists in the include/SDL2 folder, but Visual Studio still can't find it. I'm currently trying to build with only the SCUMM engine enabled to simplify things.
[16:35] <grogbot_> [discord] <sev____> You missed one of the first steps of downloading precompiled libraries and setting up paths to them
[16:37] <grogbot_> [discord] <ranaalihassnain> I have downloaded the precompiled libraries and placed them in F:\ScummVM_Libraries. I also set the SCUMMVM_LIBS environment variable to that path. However, Visual Studio still gives SDL.h: No such file or directory.
[16:40] <grogbot_> [discord] <losetech> is it say SDL2.h or SDL\SDL2.h?
[16:44] <grogbot_> [discord] <sev____> @ranaalihassnain since I see you struggling with it for like three weeks now, My suggestion is to stop torturing yourself and set up mingw64
