Animations often run at full speed without any delays. Apparently the target hardware of that time (286/386, Amiga, Mac) would ensure sufficient slowdown. Unfortunately, comparing with DOSBox, ScummVM runs somewhat faster. I have tried to add extra delays depending on the amount of onscreen activity. I have finally gotten a result which is very similiar to DOSBox execution.
Basing this on the screen activity is not optimal. Ideally, it would be based on the orignal cpu activity. But we can hardly do that...
- The high quality music seems to work fine. I haven't done any extensive comparison with emulation, but all music tracks have been played with asan enabled. I haven't actually finished playing through the game, though (still stuck in the damn fireberry cave), so the finale still needs to be tested...
- I am not sure about the low quality music. It should work, but hasn't really seen much testing. Currently, I don't have any way to switch to the low quality music anyway. Maybe I'll add a launcher option for it.
- The 16bit mode I have been trying to invent doesn't work. Priority was finishing the original sound first.
- GMM volume settings haven't been fully implemented and don't work
- add support for the Sega Font and add text display methods at least for the sequence player
- finish sequence player (add all missing opcodes and other missing code portions)
- some improvement to the resource class
- some renaming and cleanup
Initial file handling, palette and graphics support. The opening credits get played satisfactory. Following up with the cinematics player will be much easier now...
