If I understand it correctly, it supports MP3 compressed versions of the speech packs. That would lower the size and allowing you to put more games on 1 disc! *hugs Marcus Comstedt* :)
They got the tools to convert the audio format in e.g. DOTT or Sam&Max at http://www.ScummVM.org

Le portage de ScummVM pour dreamcast a été mis Ã* jour par Marcus .
Maintenant ce portage utilise la lib MAD (lib de décodage audio mpg1, 2 et 3) .
Vous pouvez télécharger une version CVS :

Well, that's a whole lot different than what Wraggster thought it said. :DQuote:

well it just says libmad has been added to scummvm, but not a word about what it can be used for, where did you find it Christuserloeser?
If you can compress the speech pack well, yes it can be useful, but how do we do it ?
Read the readme that comes with the main scummvm branch. It goes into detail about compressing sound files for the games supported in scummvm.Quote:

Gobliiins CD works well and the US Infocom release of Simon the Sorcerer now works. But the DOS (non talkie) version of Simon 2 now doesn't. (it did in the 0.7.0 release)
Hopefully the auto save will be adjustable soon as that is really the biggest problem with ScummVM on the DC.
Wait a little and you'll have ScummVM on DC with no auto save, making the games much more enjoyable (that's not a rumour, it's a promise).Quote:
