![]() ![]() I succeeded on that and, since this was one of my goals, I recently isolated this functionality into a more specific tool (SCUMM Midi Player) for just playing music from Monkey Island and other SCUMM games.ĭownloads SCUMM Xplorer 0.5 for MacOS X SCUMM XP 0.5 for Windows SCUMM Explorer 0.4 for MacOS Classic SCUMM Xplorer/XP 0. My main concern was to decode the file formats for music on Mac, as it sounded a lot better than it did on PC. I also made a lot of experience in C programming and in the use of CVS and Sourceforge. My role was to port ScummVM to MacOS, and while doing this, I discovered a few bugs and had the opportunity to increase my knowledge of the SCUMM engine and its formats. ![]() ![]() This is a huge plus to finally see it here but for some reason I cannot seem to get ScummVM to work with my iPad keyboard and trackpad. At the time I was also part of the ScummVM team. I’ve been a huge fan of ScummVM for years and with my iPad at work it’s nice that some games are available as ports but other games I wanted to play I had to play with PC or emulation devices. That was part of the reason why I chose Basic, to keep things simple. Of course, a similar project requires a lot of work on the reverse-engineering side, to discover the file formats. The language used to make SCUMM Explorer is RealBasic (now Xojo), which at the time I made this, was very similar to Microsoft Visual Basic, but had the advantage of being able to compile both Mac and PC applications. Of course it is still aimed at Mac-based SCUMM games, which had some slight differences from their PC counterparts, particularly about the music format. Version 0.4 is the last one that runs also on MacOS Classic.īut I also made a quick porting to Windows. The first version ran on 68000-based Macintoshes and on PowerPC as native. It can display images, play sound, music, disassemble scripts and dump unsupported blocks as raw data. SCUMM Explorer is a MacOS program that I made to display and extract data from Lucasarts games ( Monkey Island, Sam and Max, Full Throttle… just to name a few). ![]()
