Description

ScummVM 1.7.0git (Feb 6 2014 15:42:12) Features compiled in: Vorbis FLAC MP3 RGB zLib MPEG2 Theora AAC FreeType2 JPEG PNG

I have a somewhat unsupported version of "Mental Repairs Inc.". It gets detected and i can reach the options menu (with a lot of "Script runtime errors") printed in green on top left when the page comes up.

When i start the game i get another set of "Script runtime errors" and a black screen. Nothing is loaded, the game doesn't start.

ScummVM is still responsive though, i can quit it with Alt-X

This is how it gets detected: [wmefan-MentalRepairsInc-win] platform=windows gameid=wintermute description=MentalRepairsInc (fangame) (Windows)

and this is the info printed in the console:

The game in 'Games:GamesVM/Wintermute/Mental Repairs Inc/d3dx9_34.dll' seems to be unknown. Please, report the following data to the ScummVM team along with name of the game you tried to add and its version/language/etc.: {"english.dcp", 0, "7573eb584e662adbc5fa3b1448e56106", 3160232}, {"german.dcp", 0, "af59a05ef29768e7fced3794a7a380a3", 3249142}, {"data.dcp", 0, "414d423bbff697f22fb38932f030e897", 59518068},

and later when i start the game:

Where can I get this version of the game from? (Is it free to download?)

The demo can be found here: http://www.hulub.ch/mentalrepairs.php

Having said that, this is a 2.5D game, thus probably out of ScummVM's scope

Thanks Filippos,

but according to the Wintermute Games page ( http://res.dead-code.org/doku.php/games:start ) Hulub actually hosts the full version (it's no bigger than 71 MB uncompressed, though i cannot confirm, because i don't have any hardware to play it other than ScummVM - probably)

The Hulub site also states: The game was created with the Wintermute Engine which supports realtime polygon characters in front of static, prerendered backgrounds (hence the term 2.5D).

So, it may as well be out of scope.

If so, i'll apologize for the item and the extra work :-/

This is definitely out of ScummVM's scope. I've tried to start it and the script runtime errors are caused because the game is calling unimplemented 3D functions: LoadActor3D SetTexture AddAttachment (this exists, but probably fails because of the missing 3D actor?) GetAttachment (this exists, but probably fails because of the missing 3D actor?) GoTo (same reason, probably?)

In any case, this is out of ScummVM's scope, thus closing

Reopening since we are now adding 2.5D games to detection table.
