The resource patcher can be used to patch non-script resources
like views, maps, sounds, etc. It is more primitive than the script
patcher in that it does not use signatures for safe and automatic
patch relocation, but it does at least allow existing resources to
be grown if needed.

Also gate them behind the presence of a 184.VOC resource instead of GID_CATDATE. This should not matter with regards to the remap effects -- the 2015 and 2016 demos had none, and the first that did has an unknown release status. Only the 2017 demo would fall, which would be easily fixed by dropping in a valid 184.VOC patch file.
This applies to any sleep, but is particularly noticeable in games
that send SysEx messages to MT-32, which add delays by sleeping in
order to avoid buffer overflows in the device firmware.
Convert macros and vars to enums, rename keyboard events in
preparation for adding key up events, clean up unnecessary nested
conditionals, add TODOs for potential future work.
To enable the optional content censoring mode, Phant2 looks
for a RESDUK.PAT file, which is normally placed by the game's
installer if the user chose to enable censorship. If the file
exists, the game reads an unlock password out of the file and
asks the user to enter the password when starting a new game to
create an uncensored game, or to click a "less intense" button
to start the game with censoring. The censorship state of the
game is then persisted in the save game file, and installations
with the RESDUK.PAT file need to enter the password again in
order to restore any of the uncensored saves.
Since we do not have an installer that can enable this feature,
add a game option toggle to enable/disable censoring (for the
releases that have the optional censorship mode) instead so the
censored content feature is available for anyone that wants to use
it. This flag is restored from ScummVM whenever a save game is
loaded, so it can be toggled on or off at any point without
needing a separate save game, unlike in the original interpreter.
For whatever reason, Sierra decided that the final patches would
go in the root directory for Phant2. The game disc includes
(different, older) patches for many of the same resources in the
PATCHES directory, and loading those instead makes the game not
always work quite right.
Upon investigation of Sound code across SCI32 games, it was
determined that there are actually (at least) 3 different
revisions, not just a single SCI2.1 version. This patch only
changes the parts of Sound code that are relevant to the correct
use of Audio32.
Fixes Trac#9736, Trac#9756, Trac#9767, Trac#9791.
In SSCI, games could never start at tick 0 because the video
benchmarking code on game startup would take several ticks to
run. In ScummVM, where the benchmarking code is disabled, it
becomes possible for games to start at tick 0. This can break a
lot of kernel code, which uses tick 0 as a special value
indicating that a feature is not active. For example, in GK2,
the music at the start of the game will not fade in on systems
that are fast enough to start audio playback at tick 0, since
a fade start tick of 0 is used to indicate audio fade is disabled.
Fixes Trac#9830.
Calling to SciEngine::syncSoundSettings from GuestAdditions
recurses back into GuestAdditions, which is obviously not
desirable. Even when it didn't manage to cause infinite recursion
(as in SQ6 demo), it would make the UI behave in broken ways (e.g.
the +/- buttons on the music slider in SQ6 would not work because
the UI would just get updated immediately back to the closest
rounded value).
LSL7 originally came with music in two qualities in subdirectories of
the 'music' directory, 22s8 and 22s16. The gog.com release doesn't do
this and only ships the hq music in the root of 'music/'. This PR adds
it to the search path.
Closes gh-951.
More than one call to OSystem::updateScreen per frame on systems
with vsync ruins performance because the call is blocked until
the next vsync interval.
This also fixes bad rendering performance with the OpenGL backend.
This patch includes enhancements to the ScummVM integration with
SCI engine, with particular focus on SCI32 support.
1. Fixes audio volumes syncing erroneously to ScummVM in games
that modify the audio volume without user action (e.g. SCI1.1
talkies that reduce music volume during speech playback). Now,
volumes will only be synchronised when the user interacts with
the game's audio settings. This mechanism works by looking for
a known volume control object in the stack, and only syncing
when the control object is present. (Ports and planes were
researched and found unreliable.)
2. Fixes audio syncing in SCI32 games that do not set game
volumes through kDoSoundMasterVolume/kDoAudioVolume, like GK1,
GK2, Phant1, and Torin.
3. Fixes speech/subtitles syncing in SCI32 games that do not use
global 90, like LSL6hires.
4. Fixes in-game volume controls in SCI32 games reflecting
outdated audio volumes when a change is made during the game
from the ScummVM launcher.
5. Fixes SCI32 games that would restore volumes from save games
or reset volumes on startup, which caused game volumes to be
out-of-sync with ScummVM when started.
6. ScummVM integration code for audio sync has been abstracted
into a new GuestAdditions class. This keeps the ScummVM-
specific code all in one place, with only small hooks into the
engine code. ScummVM integrated save/load code should probably
also go here in the future.
Fixes Trac#9700.
1. Shift save numbers up/down for game scripts that rely on save
game numbers starting from 0 to work correctly
2. Add fake file operations to support KQ7 save games
3. Hide autosave games from native save/load list to match SSCI.
