[04:14] <grogbot> <L33tMasta> @lephilousophe looks like the new update is compiled. Testing it now.
[04:16] <grogbot> <L33tMasta> @lephilousophe good news! It boots!
[04:20] <grogbot> <L33tMasta> And MI4 looks and runs great as far as I can tell! I just need to figure out how to keybind the Retroid controls to standalone ScummVM
[04:25] <grogbot> <L33tMasta> Now I hate to ask&but does anyone have any experience keybinding controllers to ScummVM? I press the key I want to bind and the joystick just moves the mouse cursor instead of binding it to the key
[04:27] <grogbot> <L33tMasta> I might have to edit the config file manually

[07:15] <grogbot> <antoniou79> I believe we would need to implement some additional stuff for controller support now that the 3d games need them for movement control etc. When I worked on this quite a while ago it was just to emulate mouse movement for 2d games and navigating our UI.
[07:16] <grogbot> <antoniou79> I also don't have many controllers that can connect to my Android, but the ones I have may suffice (one very old Saitek joystick and one DualSense (PS5) controller)

[08:20] <grogbot> <L33tMasta> Is there anything I can do to assist?
[08:24] <grogbot> <L33tMasta> I wonder if this will impact the Valve Steam Deck when it comes out in a month or two.

[08:38] <Scummette> scummvm/master 31da200 mduggan: ULTIMA8: Reset position of Crusader status gumps on load
[08:40] <grogbot> <SupSuper> not really, the steam deck is just a pc
[08:41] <grogbot> <SupSuper> controller support will be the same as desktop right now
[09:10] <grogbot> <antoniou79> Right. @L33tMasta for Android it's just a matter of finding the available time for me or another developer to test the 3d engines (and probably the 2d that need tank controls like LBA) with a controller, figure how to implement and integrate support for those. So, I'm afraid it *might *take some time to get round to it. I'm glad the crash error got resolved though. Crashes always get higher priority for fixes (since they are release
[09:10] <grogbot> blockers)

[09:48] <grogbot> <lephilousophe> @L33tMasta good to know. Thanks! I wonder if you could give me the logcat like yesterday to see which configurations your device provides?

[10:43] <Scummette> scummvm/master 7caca98 AndywinXp: SCUMM: DiMUSE: Fix code duplication
[10:49] <grogbot> <salty-horse> There a few famous Israeli Director games that I don't see in the detection tables. Problem: They were released as freeware in 2008 (many years after their initial publication). But the website that officially hosted them https://web.archive.org/web/20080510133218/http://piposh.vgames.co.il/games.htm is gone. I think they're still officially freeware, and it's just the website that's gone. What's the policy about that?

[13:49] <grogbot> <plaidman> there's a way to launch games by ID in the CLI. is there a similar way we can launch directly into specific games that have been added to the main interface on android?
[13:50] <grogbot> <Henke37> the "main interface" being outside of the application i presume?
[13:50] <grogbot> <Nath4n> Ciao
[13:55] <grogbot> <plaidman> if the game as been added to the game list in the application, is there a way I can launch directly into that game from outside the application
[13:55] <grogbot> <plaidman> something akin to "scummvm.exe monkey" on windows
[13:56] <grogbot> <Henke37> judging by the source code, i'm leaning towards a no.
[13:57] <grogbot> <Henke37> the values given to the argument handling code in the android versions is hardcoded and do not accept a game id

[14:01] <Scummette> scummvm/master fac048c AndywinXp: SCUMM: DiMUSE: Fix magic number
[14:11] <grogbot> <lephilousophe> @plaidman no there isn't
[15:33] <grogbot> <L33tMasta> I should be able to bind the directional pad and have it act like the arrow keys on a keyboard though, right?
[15:34] <grogbot> <L33tMasta> They are, for some reason, not being detected either when I go to bind them
