AGDInteractive - Sierra Adventure Game Remakes Forum

FreeSCI has finally managed to merge with ScummVM (which, for those who don't know, is a virtual machine adventure interpreter that can play P&C adventure games by LucasArts and a number of other developers including Sierra AGI games like KQ1-3, PQ1, and SQ1-2). At present it only has support for SCI0 games (like KQ4, SQ3, Codename Iceman, Conquests of Camelot, and PQ2) and limited support for SCI01 (QFG2, KQ1SCI) and SCI1 games (KQ5, SQ1VGA, SQ4 disk version, Conquests of the Longbow, and PQ3) but a lot of ScummVM developers have long been interested in developing for SCI so we may see FreeSCI's progress go a little faster now.

It should also be noted that you won't be able to play SCI games in ScummVM until the next major release version as the implementation is not fully complete.

übergood news! Now I'll be able to play again, huh, well, someday I'll be able to play again the SCI games that now I just run on Dosbox. Mmm... I don't see the usefulness of that improvement right now, but I'm happy nonetheless.

I think the main value what I see on this is the several ports that scumVM has on plenty of platforms. I'd love to play a Quest for glory 3 again on my Nintendo DS for example..
