[08:33] <grogbot_> [discord] <ranaalihassnain> kindly guide me here, i face this problem at least three times, and three time it shows 8 failed and now shows 7 failed

[08:33] <grogbot_> [discord] <ranaalihassnain> Now, what should i do
[09:33] <grogbot_> [discord] <antoniou79> what Operating System are you working on?
[09:34] <Scummette> [scummvm] dreammaster pushed 1 new commits to master: https://is.gd/Ys1EJf
[09:34] <Scummette> scummvm/master 2c27215 dreammaster: BAGEL: METAGAME: Stop in-progress speech when closing a minigame exit dialog
[09:34] <grogbot_> [discord] <antoniou79> Did you install all the prerequisites as per our wiki instructions for compilation on your system?
[09:35] <grogbot_> [discord] <antoniou79> Looks like you're missing a header for vorbis
[10:02] <grogbot_> [discord] <sev____> Please follow our compilation instructions on the Wiki
[10:18] <grogbot_> [discord] <ranaalihassnain> I'm working on Window
[10:19] <grogbot_> [discord] <ranaalihassnain> yes, I install all require libraries for setup of ScummVM
[10:19] <grogbot_> [discord] <ranaalihassnain> yes but now how i can solve this
[10:29] <grogbot_> [discord] <antoniou79> There may be more errors that we're not seeing on that screenshot.
[10:29] <grogbot_> [discord] <antoniou79> Which instructions have you been following specifically (link the wiki page please) ?
[10:29] <grogbot_> [discord] <antoniou79> That environment looks like Visual Studio.

[14:21] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> I am trying to play sam and max hit the road and Indian Jones in scummvm android phone
[14:21] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> I don't know what files I need I have installed in windows the games via gog
[14:57] <grogbot_> [discord] <.spinmaster> Did you check the Wiki? https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php?title=Main_Page It lists exactly which data files are required for each game
[15:14] <grogbot_> [discord] <antoniou79> Both of these games (well, I'm not sure which Indiana Jones game you're refering to, but either Last Crusade or Fate of Atlantis) should require no extra work to be detected from ScummVM, other than copying their folders, as installed by GOG, over to your android device (in separate folders)
[15:16] <grogbot_> [discord] <antoniou79> But, of course on modern Android devices, you'll probably need to follow the instructions of how to add your games if they are copied in locations where ScummVM cannot access by default (which is most).

[18:15] <grogbot_> [discord] <ranaalihassnain> I am on Windows using Visual Studio. I haven't followed the specific Wiki instructions yet, I just cloned the repo, I'm getting the Vorbis header error
[18:18] <grogbot_> [discord] <antoniou79> Please follow the specific Wiki instructions then, for compiling with Visual Studio: <https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/Visual_Studio>
[18:18] <grogbot_> [discord] <antoniou79> Then report back if the error persists
[18:32] <grogbot_> [discord] <robertmegone> You can't hear it but the game is playing the music and a sound effect from the Amiga demo of Teenagent. There is still a long way to go and I keep getting distracted. I planned to start small with the Amiga demo since it's not huge. I am slowly realising just how much work even this will be.

[18:49] <grogbot_> [discord] <gu3> I love when people show how they restore old sounds, even if primitive. I started a tradition of showing new sound effects on engines on Wednesdays, but it is not as popular as Screenshot Friday 😅

[22:06] <grogbot_> [discord] <cameron_51023> Will the Yaga engine ever be completed so that Pajama Sam 4: Life Is Rough When You Lose Your Stuff as well as Putt Putt and Peps Birthday Surprise can be played on ScummVM? I really want to have them playable

[22:28] <grogbot_> [discord] <strangerke> Bad news 😉
[22:46] <grogbot_> [discord] <thebigcore> There's a Wayne's World adventure game? 😄
[22:51] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> I placed in a folder the 3 files needed it for Sam and Max but in scummvm the folder is empty
[22:51] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> And i get this
[22:51] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/581224061091446795/1475988594022678672/Screenshot_2026-02-25-00-51-23-095_org.scummvm.scummvm.jpg?ex=699f7cff&is=699e2b7f&hm=3248d0e919ab1b11be47bfba4fdd3f9399417447b67b41ddfe26ed73291bbcb0&

[22:53] <grogbot_> [discord] <bosca_bo> It's not screenshot friday but hey, what the heck...
[22:53] <grogbot_> [discord] <bosca_bo> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/581224061091446795/1475988970692149369/2026-02-24_23-45-03_-_Copia.mp4?ex=699f7d59&is=699e2bd9&hm=7209c37a01408a1acb67fa49747e7386ef1e3ce4bbda625f58c73d4b13f15e0b&
[22:55] <grogbot_> [discord] <bosca_bo> (this also marks the first time I'm both disassembling a Win16 executable and that I'm able to correctly load code segments from a Mac68k executable on IDA, so... hooray, it's about time)
[22:55] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> Oh I found it I need to add new folder in the explorer lol
[23:01] <grogbot_> [discord] <strangerke> Yes, and a terrible arcade game on Nes
[23:02] <grogbot_> [discord] <thebigcore> I own the SNES Wayne's World platformer which was below average, but I've heard the NES version is **atrocious**.
[23:02] <grogbot_> [discord] <thebigcore> The NES one routinely makes it onto top 10 worst NES games ever made.
[23:10] <grogbot_> [discord] <eientei> here was me hoping that we'd get Link: The Faces of Evil and Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon in ScummVM...
[23:11] <grogbot_> [discord] <bosca_bo> You get a meaningless collection of minigames starring Hanna-Barbera characters instead!
[23:11] <grogbot_> [discord] <bosca_bo> ...I don't know what's worse to be fair

[23:17] <grogbot_> [discord] <ogarvey> Must admit when I saw the Phillips logo I had similar thoughts
[23:18] <grogbot_> [discord] <sev____> And as this screenshot says, did you add your game directory to FRS?
[23:18] <grogbot_> [discord] <sev____> right
[23:19] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> Yeah sorry about that I remembered it otherwise
[23:19] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> Wasn't clear for me I had to add a new folder
[23:20] <grogbot_> [discord] <sev____> If you have suggestion for a better wording there, please give it
[23:20] <grogbot_> [discord] <sev____> We are too much in the context, so maybe we assume users do understand
[23:21] <grogbot_> [discord] <sev____> assume too much I mean
[23:22] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> Hmm I haven't touched scummvm for ages as you can see I already had monkey3 in my library, when I pressed add new game I assumed i had to browse to the game files
[23:22] <grogbot_> [discord] <ilducci> Guess we are many who thought we'd have full CDi emulation on ScummVM
[23:22] <grogbot_> [discord] <ilducci> Damn logo
[23:22] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> I also had my whole SD card directory there so at first I was trying to understand why my internal storage was not showing
[23:23] <grogbot_> [discord] <sev____> the problem is that we cannot detect if a directory was added to FRS. Unadded directory just looks empty to the program
[23:23] <grogbot_> [discord] <ilducci> (I wished the currently existing emulator would improve)
[23:23] <grogbot_> [discord] <bosca_bo> Admittedly I kept the logo in the video just have a laugh 😛😂
[23:23] <grogbot_> [discord] <ilducci> (I wish the currently existing emulator would improve) (edited)
[23:24] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> The thing is that you need to press add a new folder and then click choose
[23:25] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> If you already had added some folders it looks like an order not a button
[23:26] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> I would like a direction that would be more direct that I need to browse my phone files maybe a button browse phone files idk
[23:26] <grogbot_> [discord] <sev____> well, we do not know either 😅
[23:27] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> I am not sure what best UI/UX could be I described what I faced maybe if you put my description and a screenshot into ai would give some suggestions xD
[23:27] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> I like scummvm and would love it to see it improved
[23:28] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> Btw do you think we would be able to play escape from monkey island in it and grim fandango maybe properly? I saw you try to work on it but it seems too much
[23:29] <grogbot_> [discord] <sev____> description and a screenshot are right there
[23:29] <grogbot_> [discord] <sev____> behind the [?] button
[23:30] <grogbot_> [discord] <sev____> the pop-up message suggests to check that button
[23:30] <grogbot_> [discord] <sev____> no. not Android-friendly and not complete engine
[23:30] <-- sev left irc: Quit: This computer has gone to sleep
[23:30] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> Uhh
[23:31] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> We can play the PS2 version from phone anyway
[23:31] <grogbot_> [discord] <dredd4dom> So it's fine
