[01:08] <GitHub172> scummvm/master f9c370d Paul Gilbert: TITANIC: Fixes for names in the CursorId enum
[01:08] GitHub172 (GitHub172@192.30.252.42) left #scummvm.
[01:09] <snover> well the good news is that were accurately emulating the interpreter again, the logo video at the end of the game is busted in SSCI too
[01:10] <snover> never thought i would end up being in a position where i need to write a script patch to fix a 3 second long superfluous production company video at the end of a game, but here we are.
[01:11] <dreammaster> LOL. I can commiserate. Serrated Scalpel had a whole other executable just for the title animation. Admittantly it was done using MADS, so that made things a lot easier to figure out, but it still was a pain to reverse and figure out the custom "scene" code for it
[01:13] <snover> in the 2.0 patch, sierras top interns wedged a credits button into the main menu that helpfully kept me from needing to actually play through the whole game in dosbox to figure this out :) (and i do mean wedged, https://zetafleet.com/i/59851bac7bc2b.jpg)
[01:15] <dreammaster> LOL again. You're not kidding. I mean, even a minimum amount of effort could have had the other buttons moved a bit to the right and maintained the nice diagonal effect

[02:20] GitHub18 (GitHub18@192.30.252.42) left #scummvm.
[02:30] <snover> ugh. there really is just no room in this script to fix the problem that way.
[02:33] <dreammaster> Pity
[02:33] <dreammaster> Any ideas what you'll do then? Have to put a hack in the engine itself?

[02:35] GitHub45 (GitHub45@192.30.252.34) left #scummvm.
[02:37] <snover> yeah. i am checking one more place i could do a hack in a script before settling on doing it in the interpreter.
[02:39] <snover> unfortunately, the script uses an extremely efficient call to play this video. it just happens that the callee is only intended to be used for videos that are line-decimated, which this one is not

[03:19] <snover> you know, i might actually just leave this the way it is and just generalise the draw rect clipping.
[03:20] <snover> hacks are lame, this video is lame, its off-centre no matter what since theres no room to fix that either

[20:02] <snover> i found the part of phant2 that is actually a game: https://zetafleet.com/i/59861dfd2b026.png
[20:04] <dreammaster> What is that, some kind of 2d shooter? :)
[20:04] <snover> a space invaders derivative
[20:05] <dreammaster> LOL. I wasn't even actually serious. :)
[20:05] <snover> the room is called bossInvaders
[20:05] <Lightkey> what a horror game.. is that Merkel at the bottom?
[20:05] <dreammaster> Not that I've played it, but from the let's play videos, it's giving me a feel of Undertale
[20:06] <snover> i dont know, does merkel shoot lasers from the top of her head?
[20:06] <snover> i am surprised that this isnt on TCRF already

[20:43] <Strangerke> hi guys :)
[20:43] <dreammaster> Wazzup!
[20:44] <Strangerke> Not much... Having a beer, watching a game...
[20:44] <Strangerke> What about you? :)
[20:45] <dreammaster> Gradually working my way through the huge backlog of bugs a certain tester, who shall remain nameless, has added to the bugtracker :)
[20:46] <Strangerke> ha, nice :)
[20:46] <dreammaster> And considering that many of them are original game bugs, it adds the fun of trying to figure out how to properly fix the problem, rather than just what I missed from the original executable
[20:46] <Strangerke> On my side, I think I'll officially give up on Kingdom in the next minutes and start working on a pseudo random game. Like Maupiti Island. Or HDB. I'll throw a coin
[20:48] <-- ComradeAnderson left irc: Ping timeout: 240 seconds
[20:49] <dreammaster> Why not. Let the Fates decide!
[20:49] <Lightkey> Hyperspace Delivery Boy?!
[20:49] <Strangerke> Lightkey :P
[20:50] <Strangerke> dreammaster: I'm a bit bitter because Kingdom is only missing a video player and maybe an hour or two to finish the demo... but well
[20:50] <t0by> Why not Plumbe-
[20:50] <t0by> -damnit
[20:50] <Strangerke> t0by: I could also work on the CDi container, yes
[20:50] --> ComradeAnderson joined #scummvm.
[20:51] <m_kiewitz> snover: any idea if you can access that in the regular game somehow?
[20:52] <dreammaster> Or you could dig up the AGS engine, if fuzzie has no objections. That's been frozen for ages, and it's the next big multi-game engine that comes to mind after SCI. Or maybe snover will want to take it over, once all the Sierra games are completable :)
[20:52] <Strangerke> no, never
[20:53] <dreammaster> I don't blame you
[20:53] <snover> m_kiewitz: i do not know.
[20:53] <Strangerke> the community is hostile, it's useless
[20:53] <m_kiewitz> snover: we should try to figure that out
[20:53] <snover> why?
[20:53] <m_kiewitz> would be awesome to find a hidden secret years after release
[20:54] <snover> its still already that.
[20:54] <snover> its pretty broken. it also crashes at the end trying to send an invalid selector.
[20:54] <m_kiewitz> :/
[20:54] <m_kiewitz> maybe it was a planned easter egg and wasn't finished
[20:57] <waltervn> Strangerke: Nancy!

[21:09] GitHub191 (GitHub191@192.30.252.40) left #scummvm.
[21:10] <snover> this game has been pretty frustrating. nothing is totally broken, but i have had so many episodes of wondering if something is broken or not. audio that doesnt sound quite right, animations that dont look quite right&
[21:10] <snover> plus all the unskippable animations, like the train sequence at the end of the game.
[21:12] <snover> theres no audio volume setting anywhere in the game itself&
[21:12] <dreammaster> Damn, it certainly sounds like a shoddy job
[21:13] <Henke37b> for some reason Im reminded of QUEEN
[21:14] <Henke37b> it has some dodgy stuff in the assembly replacements
[21:14] <snover> weird things too, like for some reason they decided to put all the sound effects into RESSCI instead of RESOURCE.SFX; this is the only game that does that
[21:14] <Henke37b> usually stuff that should've been done with a better scripting engine
[21:14] <Henke37b> more than one extra main loop for sure
[21:14] <Henke37b> it's bad enough that each game engine has its own main loop.
[21:16] <snover> whatever they used to put audio into RESSCI seems to maybe have some bug, too; there is at least one audio file where the size in the audio files header is one byte larger than the size given in RESSCI
[21:18] <snover> the 2.0 patch adds a whole hint system that didnt exist in the original release, and actually changes the behaviour of at least 5 puzzles
