[09:19] <grogbot> <eriktorbjorn> That's way outside of what I'm trying to accomplish, though.
[09:24] <grogbot> <Bluddy> yeah I understand. It's just that the musical parts of indy3 are so brief, it's not really worth the effort
[09:24] <grogbot> <Bluddy> most of the game is silent

[18:12] <grogbot> <Cyb3rstorm> Is there a working Classic Mac OS/PPC build? I was wanting play some early Sierra titles on a CRT and my iMac G3 Bondi (OS 8.6/233MHZ/128MB) seemed like a natur choice.
[18:13] <grogbot> <Cyb3rstorm> I've tried getting the native builds working but anything older than around Fate of Atlantis has serious compatibility hitches with fast PPC systems
[18:29] <grogbot> <lephilousophe> there is one for ScummVM 2.2
[18:29] <grogbot> <lephilousophe> none for 2.5
[18:40] <-- ny00123 left irc: Ping timeout: 240 seconds
[18:43] <grogbot> <aquadran> 0.2 or 2.2 ? https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/scummvm/0.2.0/scummvm-0.2.0-macos9.sit

[19:34] <grogbot> <lephilousophe> erf sorry, I thought it was Mac OS X
[19:42] <grogbot> <Cyb3rstorm> @aquadran Even that wont work lol I'm on 8.6
[19:42] <grogbot> <Cyb3rstorm> Oh well, thats probably a sign this is a stupid idea lol
[19:43] <grogbot> <Cyb3rstorm> Since in my experience people will port anything to everything they reasonably can
[19:43] <grogbot> <Cyb3rstorm> Meaning if they didn't, there was a good reason
[19:43] <grogbot> <aquadran> I guess you need os9
[19:45] <grogbot> <Cyb3rstorm> Lol not worth upgrading to run a ScummVM version from 20 years ago
[19:45] <grogbot> <Cyb3rstorm> lmao
[19:46] <grogbot> <Cyb3rstorm> I assume this means the performance on Classic Mac OS devices was so poor the line of compilations was discontinued
[19:46] <grogbot> <Cyb3rstorm> that or the APIs classic mac used was too finicky
[19:47] <grogbot> <criezy> I think it's more an issue of nobody having the motivation and time to maintain the source code for that platform.

[21:17] <grogbot> <e8ghtmileshigh> Hey I need help with kings quest 6 please I'm getting error messages like Console is ready Debugger started , type ' ex i t ' to retu rn to the game . Type 'help ' to see a little list of commands and variables. ERROR : portra i t PAWNSHOP . b i n not found !
[21:21] <grogbot> <Henke37> that last one is the real error
[21:29] <-- ny00123 left irc: Ping timeout: 240 seconds
[21:42] <grogbot> <e8ghtmileshigh> Yea I don't know anything about this please help me out
[21:42] --> ny00123 joined #scummvm.
[21:43] <grogbot> <e8ghtmileshigh> Errors occur whenever I interact with anything beyond the beach. I tried with multiple zips
[21:49] <grogbot> <Henke37> "zips"?
[21:55] <grogbot> <criezy> I don't really know that game, but to me it possibly sounds like corrupted or missing data files. You could try to copy all the files again from the original floppies, or download the game again from Steam or GOG (depending where you got it from).
[21:59] <grogbot> <e8ghtmileshigh> From the floppy
[21:59] <grogbot> <e8ghtmileshigh> Multiple rips of the floppy
