The Steam LC appears to emulate AdLib sound so it sounds like the old PC VGA version. The FM Towns version of course has multiple CD music tracks taken from the film soundtrack recording sessions....  [Read More]

The Steam version of LC is basically the same as the PC VGA version, but with one (!) typo fixed (which is also apparently fixed in the FM Towns version.) Also you have the option to use a graphic smoothing filter and aspect ratio correction (both a...  [Read More]

Foster makes mistakes in both English and German, sadly enough. For example: I can't remember where in the novel it is, but there was a place where he used the word "Irregardless" - which technically isn't an English word at all! He should...  [Read More]

Okay, your utility is awesome. It's the only one I've ever seen that can open Loom FM Towns files. I've been wanting to do that for ages. Thanks! Also, your utility is so much easier to use for viewing AKOS files than is AkosRipper. Using it, I fo...  [Read More]

Are you thinking of SCUMM Revisited? That program will certainly let you view backgrounds. Unfortunately it only works on MI1-MI2 and all subsequent SCUMM games, so anything made earlier than that is out of the question. You can download SCUMM Revis...  [Read More]

There is still a way to blow up the mansion in the remake, and it does involve the swimming pool. You have to drain the pool, enter it, and press the red button. The house blows up. I don't think it will blow up by simply draining the pool and wait...  [Read More]

I have a copy of the Episode I Insider's Guide myself. I don't really know why people don't sell it too often, as it doesn't strike me as something really valuable. (I personally don't think it's as good as the classic trilogy's Behind The Magic, si...  [Read More]

Yes. All the early games had posters (like Maniac Mansion, Zak McKracken, Loom, Monkey Island 1, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, etc.) If you ever get the one for Loom, please scan it. I've heard that it shows a room in the City of the Glass...  [Read More]

ScummVM does not support, and has never supported, savegames from the original interpreters of the games. It also doesn't support savegames from older builds or versions of ScummVM itself. You'll have to start over, I'm afraid....  [Read More]
