Tested it briefly yesterday. Very happy for this release (my gosh, blade runner support) but sadly in this current state it is unusable on the wii: 10 minutes to load zork grand inquisitor, and even more for saving (I don't know exactly, because after 15 minutes of waiting, I turned the console off). I'm not even trying the bigger games.
I'm wondering if it could be splitted in different cores like mame2003+ to be lighter for the wii

 

@Wiimpathy you're awesome, thanks!!
40 seconds is sure still a bit long, but a much bearable time nonetheless.
Really thanks, bud

 

Uh, sorry I was just trying to download it, but I can't find the file in the link that you posted

 

Ouch, I forgot to 'Post Reply'. Here it is : https://gbatemp.net/threads/wiiflow-lite.422685/page-99#post-8849029

 

I'd be curious to know about Blade Runner too. It was working in march but no idea now.

 

@Tetsuo Shima
Do you mind testing in previous versions :
mod17
mod16

The french version was working in those. I can't test right now, it's just to know if something's have changed that makes it crash now.

 

Tried the previous game files on mod17, on an empty SD running from the HBC.
Game is correctly recognized and added to the list, but once I try to launch it, it throws a scummvm error (no code dump):
'unknown error (Failed to initialize resources)'

 

Here are the Blade Runner covers for Wiiflow. I made them for all the regions I could find scans for (brazilian, italian, english, chinese, german, spanish and french). I know that Scummvm is not currently supporting the brazilian and chinese versions, but who knows maybe they could be added in the future.
And the chinese cover really fits with the theme! I couldn't resist...

Ran this version today! Here's some of my findings:

ScummVM mod18, using USB.

- Beavis and Butt-Head in Virtual Stupidity [Eng]
Plays perfectly. Did not test the save function.
- Blade Runner with restored content [Eng]
Plays perfectly, audio skips a bit sometimes. Did not test the save function.
- Duckman: The Graphic Adventures of a Private Dick [Eng]
Shortly after you start the game, it crashes with Exception (DSI) occurred
- Leisure Suit Larry 7: Love for Sail! [Eng] / [Spa]
Plays perfectly. Opening the Inventory slows down the screen, though spanish version doesn't seem to suffer from this. Saves fine.
- Phantasmagoria [Eng]
Plays perfectly. Did not test the save function.
- The 7th Guest [Eng]
Plays perfectly. MT-32 Emulation works but makes audio skip a lot, lack of horsepower, i guess. Saves fine.

 

Just in case, i don't know if it makes any difference or not, but i am using the English version. Haven't played more than 3 minutes but seemed stable. I'll play it more later, right now i am having a blast with The 7th Guest, it's a dream come true for me to play it on the Wii, thanks to @Wiimpathy.
