Wowie-zowie, that's true, music should play! I can reproduce it too very consistently with my english copy. EDIT: and THIS is where it gets weird, playing the original EXE without DREAMM consistently yields no music as well. But this is not a collective allucination or some kind of Mandela effect, music is really supposed to start there... I should try to see what happens in the disassembly. EDIT 2: ever weirder, the issue is not there when running the game with the IDA debugger with the windowed flag, nice 🙂

I've actually been meaning to bring this up too. I have both that magazine and the actual poster (with the as-mentioned different artwork of Guybrush). I just don't have a suitable scanner. The poster is not as large as 2 feet by 3 feet but it is a decent size. I'll take some pictures tonight.

Never noticed that's a different version of this...

Cool!, since you posted these a few years ago I always wanted a poster of the Kyrandia book 3 art and the Purcell version of Tales of MI but it never happened, so a few months ago I tried my best to make them myself using multiple images from the internet, I upscaled those and patched the best parts together and ended up painting quite a bit. I tried to keep them as close to the originals though they are not perfect. I also made the same for Alone in the Dark. Here they are if you guys want to check them out. (hope you guys like these). Tales of MI File Kyrandia 3 File Alone in the Dark (with Title) Alone in the Dark (clean) Alone in the Dark 2 (with Title) Alone in the Dark 2 (clean) Alone in the Dark 3 (with Title) Alone in the Dark 3 (clean)

I can only find two of the Devils Playhouse posters in my files, and only 4x6 versions that were pack-ins for a retail release. I will keep digging but here are those in the meantime!

Some kind soul shared a high quality scan of this on Facebook a while back. I don't know if it's something you'd include LS. But if it is, let me know and I'll give you a link.

On another note, I'd like to show some comparisons of what I mean by updating existing posters. The improvements in quality result from a combination of a) having access to better sources and b) having better tools at my disposal. Note that on my old versions I often used fake texture and bump-mapping to simulate brush strokes and detail where originally there was nothing like that (although some details and grain are added artificially in the new versions as well). Here are a few samples: https://imgur.com/hcrfIOu I'd also like to show an extreme example of better ways to upscale images using basically artificial intelligence (or "machine learning"). The promotional "Infernal Machine" artwork (or something that was an early concept for the main cover) was originally only shared on Drew Struzans own website, albeit at very low resolution. Here's how it looks after upscaling it in various steps:

This is all absolutely brilliant, thank you! I've been holding out for this! Any chance of restorations of any other Monkey Island artwork that's come to light in recent years, like the alternate poster designs for MI2, or some of the background art like Wally's home and the International House of Mojo?

Fantastic as always! I wonder if anyone out there has the other page for that Grim Fandango advert - https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EJkfw9sXkAAD84K?format=jpg
