[17:05] <grogbot> <GeekOB> Thanks again @aquadran for the help with The Longest Journey

[17:06] <grogbot> <GeekOB> I can create a ticket as well if needed
[17:06] <grogbot> <aquadran> what issue?
[17:07] <grogbot> <GeekOB> This scene at the beginning of chapter 2... looks like this on PC

[17:10] <grogbot> <GeekOB> Yes
[17:11] <grogbot> <aquadran> looks like some background issue. it's only this scene?
[17:11] <grogbot> <GeekOB> So far, only place where I've noticed it
[17:12] <grogbot> <aquadran> strange
[17:12] <grogbot> <aquadran> would be nice to configm it's gles2 only specific or Raspberry Pi 4 gles2
[17:12] <grogbot> <GeekOB> I was playing it on pi4, so I thought it was normal... until I started testing on pc and saw the difference
[17:14] <grogbot> <aquadran> ok, file bug report. no idea what could be
[17:15] <grogbot> <GeekOB> No problem, it's really a minor thing but thought you'd like to know

[20:30] <grogbot> <rootfather> The GoG release uses ResidualVM as executable replacements, so it's game datafiles are known to work 🙂
[20:32] <grogbot> <rootfather> Talking about https://www.gog.com/game/myst_3_exile?pp=22d200f8670dbdb3e253a90eee5098477c95c23d here
[20:35] <grogbot> <GeekOB> Yeah, that's what I saw, I can use the files with ScummVM
[20:35] <grogbot> <GeekOB> I was just wondering if the dvd offers a different experience or if it's just improved packaging
[20:37] <grogbot> <rootfather> The DVD release offers the same experience, it just has the benefit of fitting on a single disc instead of 3 CDs. And the GOG datafiles are pretty much identical with the original CD release
[20:37] <grogbot> <rootfather> so you don't miss any content here, it's really just different packaging
[20:38] <grogbot> <rootfather> and IIRC the DVD version included already some executable patches that needed to be installed seperately when using the CD release, but that's not relevant for ScummVM at all

[22:34] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> Hi folks. I wonder if you can help me. I have been trying to get Longest Journey to run on my Win 10 PC. I have the Gog version of the game, bought it a while back. It does not seem to want to run from the play buttons; looking on forums, I tried couble-clicking the Game.exe directly, at that started it, at a tiny resolution in the corner.)
[22:35] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> More searching promted me in the direction of ResidualVM, but because of the recent merger, and the links to the forum theads that might have told me what to do are now dead.
[22:35] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> I downloaded the 2.2.0 version of Scumm, but when I attempted to use "Add Game" it did not seem to recognise anything in the folder apart from the folders and said it couldn't find a game in there.
[22:35] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> I gather I may need a daily build (the stable Win 10 64-bit from the Buildbot? The dev build?) but even having downloaded that, I'm not sure what to do with the contents of the Zip folder.
[22:35] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> (And just to compund the issue, now Gog seems to be stuck at 92% downloading 21 meg file that it started when I asked it to verify the files, and will neither complete nor abort...)
[22:35] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> Any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated, since I am on the verge of tearing my hair out. (Since I, naturally, attempted on this oddessey after a couple of hours of decision paralysis because the game I wanted to play is having CTD issues at the moment. It's been that sort of day.)
[22:36] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> (Okay, fixed that stall issue, it apparently was running stalled according to task manager...)
[22:38] <grogbot> <SupSuper> you do need a daily build (either buildbot will work). the zip contents are just scummvm, so just extract wherever you want it and point Add Game to Longest Journey
[22:39] <grogbot> <SupSuper> or use the snapshot build if you prefer an installer
[22:49] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> Okay. Extracted that; copied/pasted it into the ScummVM folder that previously the 2.2.0 was in, tried. Again, when I clicked on Add game and it opened to the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\GalaxyClient\Games\The Longest Journey (where explorer tells me the game application is) and I cannot see any files at all, it's only showing me a list of the folder in that folder. Going back up to the \Games directory, selecting The Longest
[22:49] <grogbot> Journey folder likewise gets me the message that ScummVM cannot find a game there. Am I even looking in the rigth place? As you system has not been completed updated yet, I could not find any entries on datafiles for TLJ, and so I'm not entirel sure, if it is not the .exe, what it is I should be trying to point it at.
[22:49] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> Screencap of what "Add game" is showing me in the the longest journey folder.
[22:49] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/581224061091446795/772593258768629793/unknown.png
[22:49] <grogbot> <GeekOB> Are you trying to play with the HD mods?
[22:50] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> I do not believe so, I am at the moment simply attempting to get the Gog version to run.
[22:50] <grogbot> <GeekOB> Pointing scummvm to the longest journey folder should work
[22:52] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> It does not appear to, I'm afraid.
[22:52] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/581224061091446795/772593937650024448/unknown.png
[22:53] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> Assuming I'm not being completely stupid, that's what I'm getting to after clicking Add game; after hitting choose, it tells me it cannot find a game in that folder.
[22:54] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> Would it HELP if I tried to get the HD mods? I know some of these mods modify the .exe (Spellforce 1 did), so would that maybe prmopt something?
[22:58] <grogbot> <SupSuper> what are the contents of your Longest Journey folder? scummvm should be looking for x.xarc and chapters.ini
[22:58] <grogbot> <SupSuper> for clarity, when Add Game you only pick the root game folder, not any files
[22:59] <grogbot> <sev> @Aotrs Commander you downloaded wrong nightly build
[23:00] <grogbot> <sev> your sshot shows 2.2.1pre. That is so called "stable nightly", and you need "master"
[23:00] <grogbot> <sev> master will show 2.3.0git as its version
[23:00] <grogbot> Command sent by Aotrs Commander
[23:00] <grogbot> ... I. Wut. I attempted to paste the .exe's entire filepath into the folder bar on the add game screen, and the "do you want to run this app" thign showed up, and then the game started fullscreen. Huh?
[23:00] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> Right, well I did download both, so let me try the other one.
[23:01] <grogbot> <sev> and then when choosing, choose "Longest Journey" directiry
[23:01] <grogbot> <sev> not "Fonts" like on the first shot
[23:02] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> Like on the second screenshot, will try momentarily.
[23:03] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> Ah, that's a better start, it actually found it!
[23:03] <grogbot> <sev> 🙂
[23:03] <grogbot> <sev> now sit tight and press "Start" button
[23:05] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> I still have no idea why pasting the full filepath (into the to top of the folder path) seemed to start it up, or why it would seem to work better than running the .exe by double-click...? I wonder if Gog did an update in the past while since I installed it the first time. Anyway, thank you very much folks, I will attempt to actually play it now... For a short while, at least, since getting this running ate most of my available
[23:05] <grogbot> time left, but that's about today for me...!
[23:06] <grogbot> <sev> you are welcome
[23:06] <grogbot> Command sent by Aotrs Commander
[23:06] <grogbot> ...
[23:08] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> It is supposed to shut ScumVM down when I click start? 'Cos it seems to be taking a long time to start... Aand there's nothing apparently running in TaskManager.
[23:08] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> sigh Nope. Tried again, same thing. It looks like ScummVM is starting it, and then they are both shutting off.

[23:34] <grogbot> <SupSuper> that's all?
[23:34] <grogbot> <SupSuper> weird. i only have the steam version of TLJ but can confirm it runs fine in scummvm
[23:35] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> Assuming that C:\Users\AotrsCommander\AppData\Roaming\ScummVM\Logs is the correct place (I can't see anything in Local or LocalLow).
[23:36] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> Hmm. Well, Having got the game runnign through the .exe, I'm going to attempt to see if I can install the HD mod, since one feels at this point, it is unlikely to make things less baffling...
[23:36] <grogbot> <SupSuper> hmm. you can also try residualvm pre-merge, in case it makes a difference: https://www.residualvm.org/downloads/
[23:37] <grogbot> <SupSuper> i couldn't get the game exe running myself, you probably need an old directx wrapper
[23:40] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> One thing I just noticed on the HD mod instructions is that it says to hit the override global graphics settings, so for the sake of arguement (and while I'm waiting for the fmv upgrades to down load, I'll try that with ScummVM and then try the pre-merge residualvm.

[23:47] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> headdesk The residualVM version (which is probably a stable one, as opposed to a daily) has the same issue locating the game as ScummVM. I cannot win today. Well, I'll try doing the HD mod, see if ANYTHING wants to play ball once I put that in (and if that fails, I guess I can try verifying from Gog again...?)
[23:57] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> Nope, still doesn't want to know. Maybe gog did something (but then youd have though tghe game's version number would be different, it's 1.42 apparently the same as Gog's was before.)
[23:59] <grogbot> <Aotrs Commander> Still apparently runs from clicking the .exe in normal (i.e. nonHD). At at think at this point, I will have to call it a night (out of time to spend trying to sort it out) and have another go maybe tomorrow, if anyone can suggest anything else to try.
