Huz Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 I'm only about halfway through but this is great stuff. Good to hear an explanation for the lack of vertical scrolling! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udvarnoky Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Wow, sounds like he has ambitions to turn DREAMM into an all-encompassing LucasArts emulator, or at least a certain subset of non-adventure games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Udvarnoky Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 You sure? The page doesn't mention the support of those games, and that build of DREAMM isn't recognizing my GOG install of EMI. Perhaps if I pulled out my actual discs I'd get a different result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benny Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 They worked for me when I dragged on cd images of those games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimeGentleman Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 (edited) In that case, sounds like It does indeed need the original CD files (or images) rather than the gog version's files. The list I linked to must not cover the beta. Edited January 7, 2023 by TimeGentleman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 The beta also supports Afterlife, Tie Fighter Cd, Rebel Assault 2, amazing stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udvarnoky Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Yup, ISOs are working for me. Weird! Unlike Grim, which is only sold in remastered form, the digital storefront version of EMI includes the native executable. Maybe Lucasfilm mucked with the fileset in some other way that's tripping DREAMM up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Giles Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 (edited) Sorry for the confusion! I haven't been widely advertising the beta because it still has a bunch of rough edges, but feel free to check it out. I've only worked with disc images so far, and haven't yet taught DREAMM about the GOG/Steam releases of newly-supported games. In the case of EFMI, I suspect the digital version has the updated EXE, which was not on the disc images. Should be an easy enough thing to support in the future. Aaron P.S. If you *DO* try out the beta, feel free to let me know of major issues (or minor ones), especially if you're on a Mac, as this is my first attempt to package up a MacOS X application.

TimeGentleman Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 (edited) Surely the mega-thread will get bumped when you post it in there, and doing it this way just means the mods have to clear up after you every time? But I'll leave it up to you and them! (PS : mods - feel free to delete my posts if merging/cleaning up!)

Gins Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 I'd be in favor of allowing new interviews to be new threads for visibility and then merge them into the mega thread after some time. Thanks for these cool interviews, @danielalbu! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remi Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 The mega thread will be pushed to the top when there are new posts, so please use that one in the future. (Looking forward to checking out this interview. 👍🏻) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
