Official AGI Documentation

[Collector]

Given that most of the template and fan games are late AGI2 it seems that the documentation focus on those interpreters.

Yeah, that is exactly right. I wrote quite a lot of the fan made AGI specs, and from memory I think it was based mainly on 2.9XX and above. I don't remember ever having the DDP game at that time, which is our closest match to the official Sierra AGI doc.

I finally got around to Adding this to the AGI Wiki.

I think you should clearly indicate that the information is for 2.001 (or whatever version you think it is). There is a significant amount of difference between these specs and what we see in the most commonly used versions for fanmade games. I'm mostly done a full decompile on v2.917 and will be sharing what I've learned in the WinAGI help files. Lots of interesting things I've found by going through all the code.

Good point. It would be nice if you could contribute what you have found to the Wiki

[AGKorson]

I will add that to my list of things to do. Hopefully I'll be able to get to that in next couple of months.

Thanks for any contribution that you might be able to make. I don't believe you currently have an account on the Wiki. When you are ready let me know and I'll add one for you. You probably contributed to the original AGI Wiki. A lot of the current Wiki is reconstructed from the original one via the Wayback. If you get a chance you could look through the Wiki and see what might need attention or correction.
