Description

ScummVM 2.1.0git3965-ge6dbdb880f (Dec 02 2018 04:18:06)
Windows 7 64bit
QFG4 CD (English)

The fortune teller's third reading places the "Two of Cups" across another card. Unlike other cards, this one is off-center.

The original interpreter also does this.

Occurs in the floppy edition under ScummVM, and its original interpreter, too.

Despite the card being illegible in-game, I identified it by looking it up in the real deck it was based on.

Quick and dirty way to skip to reading 3.

  • Create a new character. Any kind.
  • Wake up in the starting room.
  • Set plot flags for having seen the previous 2 readings (297, 298).
    • vv g 518 96
  • Teleport into the tarot room.
    • room 475

Digging into the resources...

The "Two of Cups" (View 1023) is an outlier (130x64). Other horizontal card Views are padded at the bottom with transparent pixels (130x86, 130x87). Because this one is cropped, it sits lower, given the same MoveTo coordinates.

sShowCard creates and places every card. Should be able to add a special case for this one.


script 475 - sShowCard::changeState(2)

(switch loc2_myCardPile
	(1
		(loc1_myCard
			moveSpeed: 0
			setStep: 30 10
			setScaler: Scaler 100 35 150 110
			setMotion: MoveTo 145 110 self
		)
	)
	(2
		(loc1_myCard
			moveSpeed: 0
			setStep: 30 10
			setScaler: Scaler 100 35 150 110
			setMotion: MoveTo 80 110 self
		)
	)
	(3
		(loc1_myCard
			moveSpeed: 0
			setStep: 30 10
			setScaler: Scaler 35 100 170 150
			setMotion: MoveTo 144 170 self
		)
	)
	(4
		(loc1_myCard
			moveSpeed: 0
			setStep: 30 10
			setScaler: Scaler 100 35 150 110
			setMotion: MoveTo 210 110 self
		)
	)
	(5
		(loc1_myCard
			moveSpeed: 0
			setStep: 30 10
			setScaler: Scaler 100 35 150 50
			setMotion: MoveTo 144 50 self
		)
	)
)



It'd be cleaner if the View resource itself could be modified to be consistent with the rest. I don't think that's possible.

Soo close.
Had one byte to spare.

/shakes tiny fist at 1-byte pushi being signed. Big values turn negative.

Two pushi ops need to become uint16... putting me... one byte... short.

Not disastrous. I can free more.

Thought I was done. It was fitting so well. -_-

The patch will be shorter in the end, which is for the best.
Just gotta turn my general purpose subroutine into a more specialized one that bakes in more of its args.
