AGS: Maniac Mansion Deluxe: Incorrect flashlight size at 640x400

Reported by: davidmorom Owned by: tag2015
Priority: low Component: Engine: AGS
Version: Keywords: Maniac Mansion Deluxe Flashlight AGS
Cc: davidmorom Game: Maniac Mansion

Description

When running Maniac Mansion Deluxe in 640x400 upscaled mode and hi-res fonts (by setting "screenres=1" and "defaultres=1" on the file "acsetup.cfg"), the flashlight on dark rooms is not scaled accordingly, so its size is 1/4 than it should be.

This was tested on 2.8.1 and stable future 2.9.x 7bbe4922, with the same result.

I attach two images to better appreciate the issue.

Hi, thanks for the report.
The reason behind this, is that the flashlight effect doesn't use the original plugin, it was reimplemented later and it doesn't take into account the old upscaled mode.

I'll see if I can implement it but I don't know if it'll be part of the upcoming 2.9.0 release.

AGS: Add upscaling factor to flashlight plugin

The flashlight plugin didn't consider the legacy upscale mode
used in few old AGS games (Maniac Mansion Deluxe and
some Maniac Mansion Mania episodes).
This commit adds this feature per-game, although there's room
for improvement as the legacy upscale setting should be made
accessible from the plugin.
