This directory contains various tools which aid the ScummVM developers
|
|
in their work. They are not intended for the general audience, and are
|
|
only sparsely, if at all, documented. Use at your own risk. You have
|
|
been warned :-).

agi-palex.py (buddha)
|
|
------------
|
|
Tool for extracting palettes from Amiga AGI games' executables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
construct-pred-dict.pl, extract-words-tok.pl (sev)
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
Tools related to predictive input for AGI engine.
|
|
|
|
|
|
convbdf
|
|
-------
|
|
Tool which converts BDF fonts (BDF = Bitmap Distribution Format) to
|
|
C++ source. That source, after being slightly tweaked, can be used to
|
|
replace or add fonts for the ScummVM GUI.
|
|
|
|
There is also a ttf2bdf tool which allows you to convert TrueType
|
|
fonts to BDF.
|
|
|
|
Hint from SumthinWicked: If you use ttf2bdf, it'll convert all glyphs
|
|
to bitmaps, but ScummVM only needs some of them. So you may want to
|
|
do your conversion like this:
|
|
ttf2bdf -p SIZE -l "32_160" -o FONT.bdf FONT.ttf
|
|
where SIZE is replaced by the desired font height.
|
|
|
|
|
|
create_drascula
|
|
---------------
|
|
Stores a lot of hardcoded data of Drascula in a data file, based on
|
|
the game's original source code. This includes the game's character
|
|
map, item locations, several hardcoded arrays used in animations,
|
|
room script logic, talk sequence logic and all of the game's texts
|
|
(mostly the dialog subtitles) in English, Spanish, German, French
|
|
and Italian. This tool is used to create the drascula.dat file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
create_igortbl (cyx)
|
|
--------------
|
|
This tool generates the "IGOR.TBL" file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
create_kyradat (LordHoto, athrxx)
|
|
--------------
|
|
Extracts various static data from the original game executables.
|
|
This includes room tables in kyra1, various hardcoded language
|
|
strings in both kyra1 and kyra2, script data for the sequence
|
|
players of kyra1 and kyra2 and other static data. This tool is used
|
|
to create the kyra.dat file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
create_lure (dreammaster)
|
|
-----------
|
|
Extracts various static data from each of the different language
|
|
versions of the game executables. This includes character
|
|
animations, game scripts, and other static data. This tool creates
|
|
the lure.dat file.
|
|
|
|
create_msvc (LordHoto)
|
|
-----------
|
|
Creates project files for Visual Studio 2005 and 2008 out of the
|
|
configure / Makefile based build system. It also offers a way to
|
|
enable or disable certain engines and the use of external libraries
|
|
similar to configure. Run the tool without any arguments for further
|
|
help.
|
|
|
|
|
|
credits.pl
|
|
----------
|
|
This perl script contains credits to the many people who helped with
|
|
ScummVM, and it is used to create the credits lists that occur in
|
|
various places, including the AUTHORS file, the about dialog, and our
|
|
web site.
|
|
|
|
|
|
dist-scummvm.sh
|
|
---------------
|
|
This shell script is used to create source release archives for
|
|
ScummVM releases. After tagging a branch for release, you can invoke
|
|
it like this:
|
|
|
|
./dist-scummvm.sh scummvm 0.7.1
|
|
|
|
Note #1: This creates .zip, .tar.bz2 and .tar.gz archives in /tmp by
|
|
default. To do that it performs a "cvs export" in /tmp first. If you
|
|
want to use another location, you can specify it as the thirds param
|
|
to the script.
|
|
|
|
Note #2: This assumes that our naming conventions for release tags
|
|
are being followed. I.e. the tag must be named "release-0-7-1" in
|
|
the above example. You can, however, specify an alternate tag as the
|
|
fourth param.
|
|
|
|
Note #3: Since SF.net anon CVS tends to lag behind developer CVS, if
|
|
you just tagged CVS, anon CVS may not yet have this. So if you are
|
|
in a hurry, modify the cvsroot in the script to use your dev CVS
|
|
account.

make-scumm-fontdata (eriktorbjorn)
|
|
-------------------
|
|
Tool that generates compressed font data used in SCUMM: To get rid of
|
|
a few kilobytes of hard-coded font data, we only store how the
|
|
French, German, Italian and Spanish fonts differ from the English one.
|
|
|
|
|
|
md5table
|
|
