Those games on a touchscreen will be amazing.

It's working with FULL speed without any glitches (so far!)
Sound sfx also as speech is working perfect!

More games tested:

[WORKING]
Day of the Tentacle
Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis
Loom
Monkey Island 2 (talkie edition using ogg files)
Sam & Max

[WORKING WITH BUGS]
Beneath a Steel Sky - Cannot interact with environment, and cursor doesn't reach far enough to bring up inventory [UNPLAYABLE]
Broken Sword 1 - No speech, but SFX are present, resolution makes text unreadable
Broken Sword 2 - Full Speech and SFX, Resolution makes text unreadable, a little slow on intro, and screen tearing on top screen
Full Throttle - No sound once past intro movie
The Secret of Monkey Island (talkie) - Freezes at Lucasfilm Games splash screen. Can skip using the B button and continue playing as normal.

[NOT WORKING]
The Dig - Intro plays through fine, until Low comes out of the ship, then freezes (dialogue stays up on screen, animations continue, but do not progress. You can press B to skip to the other two shipmates appearing, but dialogue will freeze again, and nothing is selectable).

Tested on New 3DS

- AuReiNand A9LH SysNand 10.7
- Running HBL through CIA from SysNand 10.7
- Running ScummVM-3DS from HBL (started from SysNand 10.7)

*Edit - One suggestion is to allow the analogue stick to control the cursor as an option. This would allow the extreme regions of the screen to be reached for games like BASS. Maybe the right D-Pad can be made to act as a 'right-click' toggle for stylus input, too?

 

[TheCruel]

Also another cool thing. I've figured out how to get ScummVM to accept command line arguments properly. So you can set up shortcuts in your HBL, make a Sam & Max icon smdh, and have it launch the game directly.

Will be in next version.

Gah! Didn't notice Kyra engine wasn't listed.

Haha sorry. The rest of the engines will eventually be added. If you know how (or someone is nice enough to do it),

@TheCruel
- Broken Sword 1 runs fine, but the onscrfeen dialog is really a pain to read cause of the small screen :/
- Audio issues (like in alot of games) like sound FX etc...

Thanks. I'm going to have to talk with ScummVM devs perhaps to see why audio would be an issue.

And not sure what to do about Hi-res games for text-readability. Might just allow for the topscreen it have a customized zoom with the c-stick or something. Otherwise not much I can do with those sort of games. I'm not going to worry about it for now, as long as it's technically working.

Yeah, I was thinking about using the c-stick for that.

I'll think about the right-click toggle. Atm I think you can hold down X / D-up and then tap for a right click, but the initial clicking of that button registers a click too, so doesn't work well. I'll wait on more input from others to see how controls should be changed.

By the way, I think I figured out why I have no speech in my Broken Sword 1 game. My speech files are in CLF format, which I believe is FLAC. I'm assuming that your build of ScummVM doesn't have FLAC support?

 

[a9lh-1user]

Convert them to MP3 and it will work @jpxdude

It's built with OGG and MP3, but not FLAC. Though that can easily be added if necessary in the future.

 

[TheCruel]

Oh yeah, it would complain about the 3DS not being supported or some deal with ./configure, I commented out the exit 1 after that message in configure and so far it's built fine, except it's expecting libmad which I don't have.

Yeah, I forgot to commit some lines in the configure file. I added them now: https://github.com/Cruel/scummvm/commit/fe8d48005717a4c77d34da1a5f9e4b5bfc597c6f

Anyways, I'm testing CIA stuff now.

EDIT: btw, added compiling instruction to OP, may need revisions if it's inaccurate or insufficient.

[Sega dude]

Thank you so much for this! I've been waiting for someone to port ScummVM to the 3DS!

 

[Dracari]

OK got a CIA ready. I tried Sam & Max and it doesn't have sound.
Also the 3DS has trouble closing it.

care to share that CIA?

 

[TheCruel]

Is anyone able to run this twice in a row?

After I close it, I cannot open it again without a crash. But I can usually open up another app (like ftpd) and then close it and reopen ScummVM fine. So I'd like to know if this happens for anyone else.

 

[a9lh-1user]

I started Simon 1 and closed the app, after that i started directly the app again with simon 2 without any problem.
But sometimes if you push to many buttons in a row it will stuck

P.S. sorry forgott: New 3DS with Cakes CFW

@TheCruel
Anyway, i uploaded a small video of Broken Sword on N3DS (Full Intro + few seconds of gameplay)



For those that like to know, no it's not my name, i found out i once made a random youtube account to upload flashcart reviews and seems i never used it

 

[Tacosaregood]

I tested Putt-Putt Joins the Parade on N3DS and it runs flawlessly.

 

[TheCruel]

I tested Putt-Putt Joins the Parade on N3DS and it runs flawlessly.

Seriously lol? I didn't think that was supported in this build, thought I had to enable something extra for HE games.

 

[Sega dude]

I have lots of HE games to test. I'll let you know how they work.

 

[Tacosaregood]

The only HE games that work for me so far were the ones that were on DOS.
