Really nice to see this much attention given to AGI still.

Bonus points if you can have it import/export a QFG character profile file.

I must have been on something when I posted this. And mostly taking my friend's word for it. Don't mind me.  Sorry about the confusion.

According to what NRS told me way back when, it's "basically" just amending audio data onto the end of the file. But I'm sure it has to change some header information too.

There's no source for AddWave. NRS didn't provide any.

SCI Syntax Help / Re: xStep, yStep and the edge of the screen

Is the issue with keyboard controls or mouse controls? I have control issues like that all the time with one of them and I have to use the other to actually trigger the boundary and trigger the next screen with KQ2SCI and I've never solved. Not without control colours to trigger it instead anyway.

Ah yes. Priority maps are totally different.

Hurrah! Using a newly-built AGSUtils, I was able to extract all of the sprites from QFG4.5! They are stored in TGA format, which is supported by GIMP. This should make things significantly easier...

Nice! I just built it myself with cygwin. Hopefully they can extract backgrounds (and perhaps more importantly, priority masks), videos, and other content eventually.

Never was a QFG fan but I do remember how popular QFG4.5 was. I'll be watching this with interest regardless however as anything in SCI has my attention. I'm also down for SCI32 fangames but I wonder how possible that feat is.

Haha I'm as surprised as you that so many were nostalgic for the PC Speaker. I like the phrase "Choose your nostalgia!" a whole lot now.

Of course, it's just a bit more manual labour.
But fair enough.

EDIT: But also, this was a feature that was already there that has since been removed. Why? There used to be a "Reset Filenames" button in the decompilation process window. Sometimes there are so many scripts that need to be renamed.

Kawa, I have a request from a friend for your fork of Companion. Is it possible for you to re-add the ability to disable auto-renaming script files on decompilation? Sometimes it gives script names like Obj and Game which confuse the compiler.
