This time you can build an installer yourself with my NSIS Publisher plugin for Companion 3. When you are finished with the new version, that is.

I stumbled across this again and was wondering if you still have the source for this tool. I would be curious to take a look at it.

Use the Wiki for the current. Andrew has editing and uploading permissions there. I am a mod here with some admin privileges, but the tool entries are added on to the board. It will let me update, but does not save my changes. The WinAGI entry here will require Cloudee, the owner of SCI Programming to update. Unfortunately he has not been around for sometime.

Thanks. It looked like it just needed a try-catch to gracefully handle the exception.

I have noticed that it crashes upon loading some Sierra games, like King's Quest 1 v2.0F int2.917 and some of the other KQ AGI games. The other AGI IDEs seem to have no problems opening them. If I have the other IDEs rebuild the VOL files WinAGI can then open them.

Why not also move onto SCI1.1 for it?

You can read his resignation mail here:

Wow, I had no idea. I have had some email contact with Eugene in the past, most recently for my installer code for Blade Runner. He was always cordial with me, but that may have been just standard operating procedure for him when reaching out for code. I have felt that many of the ScummVM people do not have that high of an opinion of me, but that may be from the early efforts of adding SCI with complaints about our having the SCI Wiki and hosting the old Free SCI specifications. That along with the undithering nonsense. I cannot say that I really know Colin, but have always gotten along with him since the early days of VOGONS.

I knew that Collin had joined ScummVM for SCI1+, but had not heard he had left.

Too bad that there is no source for the Shivers 2 engine. I wonder how different the scripting was from SCI32.

Might be nice to add to the Wiki, too.

I'll email Lance and see if he'll give you access to his branch since it probably has a more complete backend for his C# interpreter.

Thanks for updating the Wiki, too, though I see that the source is still is for 1.2.3.

And for those who are hoping for a Linux version of WinAGI, I have decided to begin work on re-writing WinAGI in C#. It is going to take me a lot of time, as I am looking at a pretty steep learning curve. I'm not making any promises on a completion date, but I'll try to provide occasional updates.

Or you could build on top of Visual AGI for a bit of a head start. Lance's work should have filled in the logic and sound backend, so it mostly needs the sound editor and compiler.
