Currently, Roland MT-32 sound is broken for
SAMNMAX. Just try the intro song with shut off
speech. It is very obvious that it plays with a quite
reduced number of channels compared to the
original interpreter.
Now, due to the not-so-helpful code design (much
of the iMuse code has been drawn into the common
code) it has become increasingly difficult to fix Midi
related thing in iMuse. I have added more and more
crude hacks over time.
SAMNMAX requires more elaborate channel
allocation. To make it happen I have added driver
wrappers for Midi to the iMuse code.
Other than that, I have done only minor cleanup here.
Actually, I would have liked to withdraw much more
of the iMuse code from the common code and move
it to SCUMM (basically all the MidiChannel
stuff which is exclusively used by iMuse. But it turns
out that it is so thoroughly intertwined (the major
blocker here being the AdLib driver) that it requires
more thought and effort and would just distract me
from fixing the SAMNMAX sound.
(inspired by PR 3276 - this here has the desired effect, but actually allows the removal of hacks, workarounds and redundancy code instead of adding more of that sort)
The purpose is to have the same accurate font rendering that we already have in the Smush code also for the ingame texts. The original interpreters draw the text like that, so this is not a weirdo invention of mine.
This is still broken. The main purpose was to get as much code done as necessary to have it at least compile again and correctly run the Smush texts.
The rest still needs quite some work...
Unlike the PC version, the practice mode box appears to be hard-coded in
the Mac version. The script that draws the box in the PC version just
sets variables in the Mac version. This implementation is based on
screenshots.
To keep things a bit saner, I've split out the Mac-specific drawing to
its own file.
For each engine:
- Make a new folder detection
- Move detection-related files inside the folder
- Add a new module "enginename/detection"
- Add DETECT_OBJS here
- Adjust the normal engine module to remove detect_objs
- Adjust every file for the new changes.
- Move detection code used by createInstance & MetaEngine to a common header - detection_internal.h
- Move steam-related method & table to detection_steam.h
- More info in comments.
- Also, we remove the static keyword so other TU's can use the functions defined.
- This change has a catch.
- Because creating an instance depends on game detection code from detection.cpp, we cannot exclude it from Scumm.
- For Statically linked Scumm, we can simply exclude these detection files, because they're already being built.
- For dynamically linked Scumm, we can add it to our executable.
- Thus, for dynamically linked Scumm, one catch is that we have duplicated code (detection.o in our executable, as well as scumm.dll), but that shouldn't be a big problem considering the advantage it gives us: Detection without a plugin loading.
- move mac, pc speaker and fm-towns ims sound drivers into separate directory
(AdLib and MT32/GM drivers are still too entangled with common code to be moved so easily, especially MT32/GM. It would require lots of changes to the common code and possibly to all engines using the MidiDriver class. So I leave that for now.)
Rename "player" directory to "players", and reintroduce the "player_"
file prefix. This has been done after sev's request.
"players/player_foo.*" is more descriptive, and avoids potential name
clashes in libraries
This implements the original AD output and enables it for Indy3 and Loom DOS.
It is not enabled for Monkey Island DOS because it would break multi MIDI
support. However, there are also drawbacks for Indy3. In the catacombs
we were able to play sfx (Indy walking around) and the background music
at once. This was not supported in the original player and thus also does
not work with this reimplementation.
This fixes bug #2027877 "INDY3: Non-Looping Sound Effects".
This fixes bug #1159581 "ADLIB: Adlib Emulation doesn't Respect Volume Settings"
for Indy3 and Loom.
The Monkey Island and Loom mac music is really quite similar. The
data layout is a bit different, but most of the code was easy to
separate into its own class. The Loom player doesn't do looped music
but I don't remember off-hand if it ever should.
It turns out that playing the Mac Loom music isn't particularly
different from playing the Monkey Island 1 music, except the data
layout is a bit different and there's no per-note volume.
This is based on the old Mac0-to-General MIDI conversion that we used
to do (and which this patch removes), as well as the code for playing
the Monkey Island 2 and Fate of Atlantis Macintosh music. I'm not sure
how accurate it is, particularly in tempo and volume, but at this
point it seems to work pretty well. Looping music is perhaps a bit
off, but it was before as well.
There is an annoying drawn out note in the music when you're following
the shopkeeper, but that appears to have been there in the original as
well.
This commit should fix at least the following bugs/feature requests: #1032859, #1252088, #1055391, #1315968, #1315938, #1742106, #812891.
The FM-Towns version of Scumm games use a mixed graphics mode with 2 layers (one with 32767 colors and one with 16 colors). Among other things I have added a screen output class which emulates this dual layer approach which allows specific hardware effects like enabling and disabling layers (e.g. in the voodoo priestess scene in MI1).
Old savegames (saved before this update) will load, but you’ll encounter palette glitches in the verb/inventory screen, since the 16 color palette for layer 2 is not contained in your savegame. This will be true at least for version 5 games. Certain scene change actions (which require the verb/inventory part to be redrawn) might correct this (e.g. try looking at the treasure map in MI1 and closing it). Version 3 games should be okay, since they use a static text palette which is never changed and which will be reset after loading a savegame.
This update requires a USE_RGB_COLORS setting for proper operation. 8 bit users will get a warning that they’ll have to expect palette glitches . Apart from that the engine in 8 bit mode should not only still work okay, but also benefit from some of the other (non palette related) improvements (e.g. bug #1032859 should be fixed even in 8 bit mode).
Japanese font drawing hasn’t been improved much yet. This will be a separate task.

- Start rewriting audio code for FM-TOWNS versions of Loom, Indy3 and Monkey Island 1 using the recently added code in towns_audio.cpp (Zak should work the same way, but I can't test, since I don't own that one).
- All sound types (pcm, euphony and cd audio) now support volume and balance control (e.g. try walking into/out of the kitchen and opening/closing the door in the Scumm Bar in Monkey Island 1 or walking into/out of the circus tent).
- Pcm sounds now support proper loop start/end and note offsets (e.g. try out the hammer sound in the forge in LOOM for example).
- some other minor improvements
- The FM-Towns versions of Indy 4 and Monkey Island 2 are not affected. I don't have Monkey Island 2, but I presume that it will work like Indy 4. Adding support for these will be a separate task, since they work quite differently.
