ScummVM mainly supports games created using SCUMM (Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion), used in various LucasArts games such as Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, and others. ScummVM also contains interpreters for several non-SCUMM games. Currently these are Beneath a Steel Sky, Broken Sword 1 & 2, Flight of the Amazon Queen and Simon the Sorcerer 1 & 2. At this time ScummVM should be considered beta software, and is still under heavy development. Be aware that whilst we attempt to make sure that many games can be completed with few major bugs, crashes can happen. If you enjoy ScummVM feel free to donate using the PayPal button on the ScummVM homepage. This will help us buy utilities needed to develop ScummVM easier and quicker. If you cannot donate, help and contribute a patch! 2.0) Contacting: ---- ---------- The easiest way to contact the ScummVM team is by submitting bug reports or commenting in our forums. You can also join and e-mail the scummvm-devel mailing list, or chat with us on irc (#scummvm on irc.freenode.net) Please do not ask us to support an unsupported game - read our homepages FAQ first. 2.1) Reporting Bugs: ---- --------------- To report a bug, please create a SourceForge account and follow the bugs link from our homepage. Please make sure the bug is reproducible, and still occurs in the latest daily build/current CVS version. Also check the known bugs list (below) and compatibility listing for that game, to ensure the issue is not already known. Also do not report bugs on games that are not listed as being completable in the 'Supported Games' section, or compatibility list. We -know- those games have bugs. Please include the following information: - ScummVM version (PLEASE test the latest CVS/Daily build) - Bug details, including instructions on reproducing - Language of game (English, German, ...) - Version of game (talkie, floppy, ...) - Platform and Compiler (Win32, Linux, FreeBSD, ...) - Attach a save game if possible - If this bug only occurred recently, please note the last version without the bug, and the first version including the bug. That way we can fix it quicker by looking at the changes made. 3.0) Supported Games: ---- ---------------- At the moment the following games have been reported to work, and should be playable to the end. However, this list generally applies to PC versions. Mac versions usually should work, too (with some exceptions for older games), and Amiga versions of games may work with the 'Amiga' flag turned on - but this is not always true.

However, there are cases when LucasArts themselves bundled cracked interpreters with their own games -- the data files still contain the copy protection scripts, but the interpreter bypasses them. There is no way for us t...
