SWORD1: Broken Sword 1 - Error (Can't find game data)

[nixfreak]

Can't run Broken sword 1 on scummvm anymore. Can't even load the game data. Broken since scummvm upgrade to 2.7. Decided to build the latest "daily"

Broken Sword PC Version

Attachment added of recursive directory for bs1.

[sev-]

Could you please provide a recursive directory list for your game version?

[sev-]

Also, I added changes to the detection code on March 2. Perhaps, now your version is already working?

[sev-]

Could you please provide recursive directory list? E.g. "ls -lR". The list you provided is only for the top directory.

Also, did you try a more recent build?

Replying to sev-:

Please see attachment.

This is from the latest git pull.

[nixfreak]

Added recursive bs1 directory list.

[nixfreak]

Any update on this?

Any update on this?

Does anything change if you put the .clu files in a "clusters" subfolder instead of the top folder?

[nixfreak]

No didn't work.

added recursive list of the bs1 directory with clusters directory.

[antoniou79]

Could you please clarify the details about your Broken Sword game version? Like language, whether it's a digital (Steam/GOG) or CD release or other etc.

[nixfreak]

English version , CD release

[antoniou79]

Looking at our detection code, at the non-demo entries, for Windows Platform, non-GOG release, and language EN_ANY, EN_USA or EN_GRB, it should be possible to figure the correct arrangement of data files required:
​https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/blob/master/engines/sword1/detection_tables.h

In your current arrangement as shown in your attached txt file, try this:

1. move the "SWORDRES.RIF" file in the "clusters" subfolder,
2. rename your "videos" subfolder to "smackshi".

That solution worked , awesome thanks so much now I can finish this game.
