ScummVM IRC Log - 09 Jun 2022

[Back to Index]

[00:10] <grogbot> <dongchan> So I finished the The Journeyman Project 2 and thus can say it is completable for the next ScummVM release.
[00:10] <grogbot> <dongchan> It wasn't a smooth ride however.
[00:10] <grogbot> <dongchan> There are bugs and crashes that could be ironed out.
[00:11] <grogbot> <dongchan> And since I followed a walkthrough there is possible more issues I didn't discover

[05:37] <grogbot> <Thunderforge> What sort of bugs and crashes?

[05:42] <Scummette> scummvm/master 1677248 aquadran: DISTS: Corrected project name in header
[06:10] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> Got SCUMVM setup on my tablet, got all my games copied over and stuff. I have a save for The Dig in the default location, which I assume is somewhere in the /data/data/org.scummvm.scummvm directory on android. However, I don't have access to that directory. Am I screwed, as far as retreiving that save? Or is there some way that I can get it out? This is on a Fire HD 10, and to be blunt, I've been too chickens**t to try to root it,
[06:10] <grogbot> knowing you have to brick it to do so.
[06:17] <-- littlebobeep left irc: Ping timeout: 240 seconds
[06:18] <grogbot> <antoniou79> @ChozoSR388 you should not have to root your device (and I'd suggest against it, if you'd be doing it only for ScummVM). Could you explain how you mean you have a save for The Dig in the default location? Was this from a previous ScummVM installation? Which was your previous ScummVM version and which is the one you are currently have installed? I should note that development versions of ScummVM Android app and released versions are
[06:18] <grogbot> incompatible, which means that switching between the two clears up the internal storage of the other, which includes saved games -- unless those were in a custom external folder or backed up.
[06:20] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> @antoniou79 No, not from a previous installation. I just neglected to set up a custom Saved games path when I was configuring SCUMMVM on the tablet. This was a save created through SCUMMVM for Android.
[06:25] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> But, tghe version is 2.5.0
[06:31] <grogbot> <antoniou79> You might be able to access the saves with the LAN server feature, or back them up setting up the Cloud saves feature. Did you try these?
[06:32] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> No, I haven't...
[06:34] <grogbot> <antoniou79> I have to go out for a while. When I'm back I may be able to help you further. In the meantime you could have a look at our documentation on these: LAN: https://docs.scummvm.org/en/latest/settings/lan.html https://docs.scummvm.org/en/latest/use_scummvm/LAN.html Cloud: https://docs.scummvm.org/en/latest/settings/cloud.html https://docs.scummvm.org/en/latest/use_scummvm/connect_cloud.html
[06:37] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> Okay, so, I synced it, and went to download it, but when I select the folder to save it to, I get "ScummVM could not find any game in the specified directory!"
[06:38] <-- Dominus left irc: Ping timeout: 246 seconds
[06:39] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> Do I have to save it to the director that The Dig's files are in?

[08:50] <grogbot> <antoniou79> @ChozoSR388 can you clarify what you mean by synced? Did you use the Cloud feature? If so, then the saved game(s) so now be online on your cloud service you specified.
[08:51] --> EternalSunshine joined #scummvm.
[09:08] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> @antoniou79 Okay, by synced, I mean, I went into options, set up the cloud saves with OneDrive, did the sign in stuff, put in the code, connected, synced the files from my tablet to the cloud, and then tried to download the saves that were uploaded.
[09:10] <grogbot> <antoniou79> That's good. Did you find those fies on OneDrive?
[09:12] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> Yeah, I found them, but when I tried to download the save files, I got that error about not finding game files in the selected directory. I ended up starting a new game on my PC, got back to where I was, and just copied that over to the tablet. Worked like a charm.
[09:14] <grogbot> <antoniou79> If you just wanted to put the saves to another ScummVM installation (ie. on your PC) you could set up cloud synch on your PC too, and it should synch them automatically from Cloud to PC. Saved game files are not "game data files". So I'm confused what you tried there. I guess since you've found a way it's fine.
[09:16] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> Okay, so, hjow I have it set up is I have a "SCUMMVM" folder on my internal storage. Inside that, I have Games, Saved games, soundfonts, Themes, and Extras. I tried to save the dig.s00 and dig.s01 files to the Saved games folder through the ScummVM cloud interface.
[09:17] <grogbot> <antoniou79> sounds ok so far
[09:17] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> And then it would start the download, get to 600 bytes or so, and complain that there was no game in the specified directory.
[09:18] <grogbot> <antoniou79> You mean from your PC?
[09:18] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> No, from the tablet.
[09:18] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> So, I was accessing the cloud storage from the tablet.
[09:19] <grogbot> <antoniou79> The Cloud synchronization does only work (currently) with the default local saved games location for ScummVM. It does not support custom saved games path. Maybe that is what is going on
[09:19] <grogbot> <antoniou79> Did you set your own custom path on the tablet? (Under Paths, for Global options, or Game options)
[09:20] <-- Dominus left irc: Remote host closed the connection
[09:20] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> Maybe so. I was not aware tha5t it only worked with the default location. That's sometrhing I need to file away for future reference.
[09:21] <grogbot> <antoniou79> Otherwise, I suppose the "download game files" button could mean something else, or that there's no new saved game files to download (I'm as of yet not familiar with that feature of Cloud)
[09:22] --> Dominus joined #scummvm.
[09:22] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> Well, I did, but at the time, I had the location set to "Default" Trying to test out whether that would work or not, and then I was downloading to the custom folder, to see if I could back it up.
[09:22] <grogbot> <antoniou79> However, if synch was done, you could go to your OneDrive from your PC (with a browser or windows onedrive), find the ScummVM folder and you'd find your saved game files there
[09:23] <grogbot> <antoniou79> Maybe "download game files" means you could actually put game data files on the Cloud and ScummVM would detect the games and download the files (?) No idea. Someone else might know, though.
[09:23] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> That's a fair point, and that may have saved me some headache, but I didn't even think of that. 3 in the morning sucks. Well, it's almost 5:30 now, but,. it was 3am when I was struggling with that lol
[09:24] <grogbot> <antoniou79> I understand. It's noon here.
[09:26] <grogbot> <ChozoSR388> Well, thank you guys for keeping the project going. ScummVM is amazing

[16:34] <grogbot> <antoniou79> With a quick look at the code, I don't think the demo is specifically supported. I cannot find code that checks for it.
[16:34] --> Smedles joined #scummvm.
[16:42] <grogbot> <dwa> ah, it may need an ADGF_UNSUPPORTED flag in its detection entry then?
[16:42] <grogbot> <dwa> althou(gh this flag is maybe just meant for definitive cases, I don't know)
[16:49] <grogbot> <DreamMaster> Probably. If someone has a few minutes free, feel free to switch it to unsupported. Then if I can manage to get it working on the weekend, I can always switch it back to testing at the same time.

[18:55] <grogbot> <DreamMaster> Speaking of which, was there any English Chewy demo?
[19:05] <grogbot> <eientei> I went in search of one, but all I found at the time was that German demo that is quite a bit older than the game itself
[19:08] <grogbot> <antoniou79> My google fu returned nothing. As far as I can tell the game originally got a German release (the demo probably came before as eientei notes), and later in English with a English dubbing which was disappointing since apparently it ruined the humor.

[23:45] <grogbot> <dongchan> So I am playing The Blackwell Legacy right now, GoG version. And I have noticed two issues:
[23:45] <grogbot> <dongchan> - ScummVM had some trouble detecting the game
[23:46] <grogbot> <dongchan> - ScummVM has trouble with the autosave, it asks me what to to with the file
