Telltale's Sam & Max games getting remastered
Remi replied to Udvarnoky's topic in General Discussion
22 seconds in, notice the new date added to the box in the background: "09-21-18." Nice little detail. -
EMI is largely ignored from what I recall. I'd still give it a go, though. It has aged better than many will give it credit for.

Edit -- rzil posted their reply the same time as mine! I'll keep my post for historical purposes. Ditto to what Jake said. 15-20 years ago we went through all the resources using ScummRev after many of us (including me) claimed the Spiffy close-up was in the game. It was not found in the resource files. Crispness aside, the aspect ratio there is weird, not like any of the other close-ups.

I did get it working on an older version, too, but I can't remember exactly what it took. I'm fairly sure if you search for the exact error message you'll find a solution, as the issue wasn't exclusive to TTG.
-
I'll have to try it later, but there is a chance it won't work as it was compiled as 32-bit. Latest versions of macOS supports 64-bit only.

Incidentally, most of the old Mojo buttons have been archived here: https://scummbar.com/buttons/

It was considered at some point, but never came to be.

Starring Bruce Campbell as Stan?

MI2 ending and the departure of Ron Gilbert from LucasArts
Remi replied to Totem's topic in General Discussion
That sounds about right, and I assume that was the biggest part of it -- wanting to own his IP, do what he wanted to do without having to answer to management, etc. Related, he has also said he felt the company was growing too big as it was transitioning from LucasFilm Games to LucasArts. I mean, I've left jobs even though I had projects planned there. That's just what people do, I don't think there's much more to it than that. Life happens. As for MI3, I know Schafer and Grossman were pondering making it, but decided to do DOTT instead. -
I think it’s pretty OK.

I cannot believe I made the age-old Frankenstein vs. Frankenstein's monster mistake... Either way, somebody threw the girl in the water, and it was OK because CMI is meh.
-
If calling CMI meh is being a monster, then Frankenstein was in the right when he threw that little girl in the water. Or something like that.

I'm actually going to amend my list, and put the moment in The Cave down as #4, too. Because The Cave is awesome.
-
I did the same, no go. I could have sworn I'd seen it back in the nineties. It could have been on the inside, I suppose -- "in next month's issue!" All I know is that I never ended up buying it.
-
Yep, I believe I bot a bigger version of that one somewhere.

Meanwhile, the TTG Sam & Max office theme is one of the true great tracks in the LEC+ world.
-
I'm so excited that I'll news it!
-
I'm glad we all agree CMI shouldn't even be considered a Monkey Island game!

The Monkey Island box set from Limited Run Games

We'll accept them anyway.

We just posted a gripping account of Jason framing his Maniac Mansion poster. Now that you've caught your breath and recovered from such a harrowing tale, here's your chance to show off how your LEC posters look adorning your walls. (Yes, I know, we have similar threads, but this is Mojo's Home Interior thread.) We'll start with Jason's.

You may have experienced two issues installing and playing the standalone GOG (non-Galaxy) versions of SCUMM games: 1) The installer gives you a permission error; 2) the SCUMM windows starts mysteriously shrinking while playing. Both can be fixed fairly easily, assuming you already have the latest version of ScummVM installed. The steps, using Sam & Max Hit The Road... Make sure you download the standalone installation package... After download, when you try to open the installation package, you may get this message... In which case, you need to click "OK," and then ctrl-click the packages, click "Open With...," and choose "Installer.app." Installation will proceed as normal. Now, to fix the shrinking window. Locate the game file, likely in your app folder. Ctrl-click the icon, and click "Show Package Contents." Navigate to the Contents->Resources->game->game folder, and copy all the files over to a location of your choosing. (In my case, iCloud Drive->Documents->Sam & Max.) And that's it. In ScummVM you can add the game from the "Sam & Max" folder, and you'll be good to go.

CMI is a nineties sitcom gone wrong. That's just how I feel.
