Hi all,
I finally got around finishing the latest version list and, as a result, registering myself here. I also updated my links to point to this forum (missed Cloudee's mail the first time, my apologies).
http://sierra.8bit.co.uk/ (http://sierra.8bit.co.uk/)
Changes are:
0.92 - Added Dr. Brain EGA, Conquest of the Longbow EGA, Space Quest 4 EGA
Spanish, yet another version of KQ4, some previously missed SCI11
Windows interpreters, Hoyle Classic Games (which I incorrectly
assumed to be the same as Hoyle Classic Card Games), an online SCI32
game "The Realm" (which I incorrectly to be a LSCI game), a couple
of SCI32 interpreters with debug mode included, a demo for Torin's
Passage, a demo for Shivers, a different demo for Lighthouse, a
King's Quest 6 CD demo, a demo for Hoyle Classic Card Games, a
German version of QfG4 and noticed a difference between two Quest for
Glory 4 demos.
The SCI11 and SCI32 section now include and are sorted on build dates
of the interpreter. Thanks to Nick Sonneveld for sending me a list of
SCI11 build dates.
Added the 2.100.001 "branch" of SCI32: The two games that use it were
incorrectly placed under 2.100.002.
Renamed "Hoyle's Classic" to "Hoyle's Classic Card Games", since that
is in fact the full title and needed to seperate it from the newly
discovered SCI32 game "Hoyle's Classic Games".
Added some extra info I discovered on Donald Duck's Playground.
Added some possible entries.
Added some exclusions.
No updates are planned on the debug FAQ however, since that well pretty much ran dry, so to speak.

Welcome HWM!
Thanks for updating your great list.
Now I'll have to update the wiki version of the list... :)

I've updated the wiki list. With a link to the sci community, not with the changes :P
I definately plan to consult the list though when I try to figure out which Sierra games listings I am missing. What about all of those disney learning series, what where they written in? I have never actully played any of them.

Omer,
Thanks for your work on the wiki version. I'm guessing you know already, but the guys from ScummVM (mainly df from Mega-Tokyo) also have merged the list into a wiki.

So while you're at it... ;)

"Mickey's Space Adventure" and "Winnie the Pooh in the Hundred Acre Wood" use engines which resemble the early Sierra pre-AGI graphical adventures like "Troll's Tale". They also have some things in common with AGI, like the picture format: I believe the format used in "Winnie the Pooh" only had one single instruction which differed from the usual AGI format (I made a conversion script once).
"Donald Duck's Playground" uses AGI and is featured in the list.
There was another game planned, called "Goofy's Word Factory", but it never made it past the drawing board.

Thanks for the update HWM, it looks like I've only got one more agi game to add from those then.

Actually I didn't know about the ScummVm wiki version. nice..
But too bad the ScummVm wiki is not open for the general public, so I can't update the list there, and maintain it in a single place.
