[00:06] <grogbot> <TheBigCore> Giant Steps? Isn't that a famous jazz song by John Coltrane?
[00:13] <grogbot> <Retrodude> bit of an odd question, but considering the fact that the non-remastered datafiles needed for ScummVM can be found in the files of the Monkey Island 1+2, DoTT, and Full Throttle remasters, is there any possibility the same can be done with Grim Fandango?
[00:15] <grogbot> <Retrodude> i'd love to be able to try it out with the newly merged engine but i'm not exactly itching to fork over the dough to get the CD version XP

[01:08] <grogbot> <Ihridan> are the engines that work on windows supposed to work on other platforms as well? I'm getting the "could not find any engine capable of running the selected game" on Vita for the pink panther games, not sure if I'm just missing needed files on the version I'm using (got the daily build), or that it just don't work.
[01:09] <grogbot> <SupSuper> not every platform supports every engine, check if the engine is listed in the About screen

[08:20] <grogbot> <antoniou79> @Retrodude there's no way, definitely not an easy one with a third party tool anyway, that I know of. They seem to have moved stuff around and also merged stuff (maybe for multilingual support) in the data files, so the "classic" data files are not somewhere hidden to be extracted in their original form. They are modified. I do believe that the plan is that eventually the remastered version will be supported, but that could be a long way
[08:20] <grogbot> from now. I see that it can be loaded up from a daily build, but expect glitches and bugs.
[08:25] <grogbot> <antoniou79> In theory though, it should be possible to do it, provided they did not flat out delete old stuff. But one would have to rebuild the original data files from what is there in the remastered version

[10:27] <grogbot> <MarioKartFan> One question: why isnt there a 2.5.0 release binary included for the 3DS?

[11:43] <grogbot> <TMG_unit2point0> Hey ScummVM Devs & Fans alike, Bit of a Lengthy Post, but oh well. I would just like to say Thanks & Happy 20 Years of bringing these Old Classic Games back to Life, I remember Hearing about this Project when I bought the Broken Sword Trilogy on DVD Rom from EB Games about 12 Years ago (I'm Australian as you Probably could tell), since then, my life had Forever changed, I've found out that so many of my Childhood games were

[14:27] <grogbot> <somaen> The original unchanged data isnt there in the same way as in those other remasters. The scripts are slightly adjusted, and the menus are modified. So with the release version of ScummVM you cant really play. There is however work in progress support for the remastered version in the nightly builds, but stuff like aspect ratio is quite broken currently, and Im not sure its actually completable.
[14:29] <grogbot> <somaen> Double Fine did port Grim Fandango remastered to quite a lot of mainstream modern platforms though, so playing the actual remaster is a lot more accessible than the original used to be.
[15:21] <grogbot> <GeekOB> Happy 20th Anniversary ScummVM team!

[18:42] <grogbot> <Khvostik> Hmm, on 2.5.0 Xeen CD now gives me error "could not open file - CONSTANTS_5!"
[18:43] <grogbot> <Khvostik> Same Xeen folder I used on previous versions of scummVM fine
[18:43] <grogbot> <rootfather> Unfortunately, that's a bug in 2.5.0 which is currently under investigation :/
[18:44] <grogbot> <Khvostik> oh, I see
[18:45] <grogbot> <Khvostik> it is only with XeenCD or with all Xeen engine games? (ie floppy clouds)
[18:45] <grogbot> <rootfather> It looks like all Xeen games are affected
[18:46] <grogbot> <Khvostik> I see, well, will wait I feared it is I messed up something 😆
