All LucasArts SCUMM based adventures except COMI also exist in versions for the
|
|
|
|
Macintosh. ScummVM can use most (all?) of them, however, in some cases some
|
2004-01-20 18:51:32 +00:00
|
|
|
additional work is required. First off, if you are not using a Macintosh for
|
2006-06-05 21:36:16 +00:00
|
|
|
this, accessing the CD/floppy data might be tricky, since the mac uses a
|
2004-07-27 00:37:11 +00:00
|
|
|
special disk format called HFS which other systems usually do not support.
|
|
|
|
However, there are various free tools on the net which allow reading such HFS
|
|
|
|
volumes (for example "HFVExplorer" for Windows and "hfsutils" for Linux and
|
|
|
|
other Unix-like operating systems).

|
Secondly, most of the newer games shipped only with a single data file on the
|
2004-07-27 00:37:11 +00:00
|
|
|
Macintosh. You used to have to manually convert that data file, but this is no
|
|
|
|
longer necessary, as ScummVM can now open and understand the format natively.
