DRASCULA: Can't adjust the volume inside the game

Reported by: SF/acorino Owned by: eriktorbjorn
Priority: normal Component: Engine: Drascula
Version: Keywords:
Cc: Game: Drascula

Description

Basically, I can't adjust the volume with the menu that you open when you press F9. I click on the volume bars for master, sound or music, but nothing happens. Neither changes the volume nor changes the graphical representation of those controls. But I can regulate the volume outside the game, under the volume tab that can be found under "Edit Game". I adjusted it as follows: Music: 80; SFX: 192; Speech: 256

I think a connected bug is that the controls don't look quite...right. The master control has a longer bar and some other weird deviances. I added two screenshots, one of the volume controls under ScummVM and the other of them under DosBox.

My version of Drascula has english voices and subtitles in three languages (english, german, french). I used the most recent daily build (19 July).

That volume dialog has an... interesting way of figuring out the volume. When you press the left mouse button, it passes the cursor's Y coordinate to an updateVolume() function. If the coordinate is smaller than itself, the volume increases. If it's larger than itself, the volume decreases.

In other words - and as you say - the updateVolume() function does nothing useful whatsoever.

I think this is fixed now, but I can't compare it to the original. (I'm not quite happy with how it behaves.) The volume changes aren't saved to the ScummVM configuration file, but that's a different bug/missing feature.
