Zvika, maybe consider working with the script disassemblies instead of decompiled source?Interesting idea - I thought about patching the .scr files.
V56/P56 definitely changed. Kawa has some blog entries about it. CSC is the new script format in SCI3. Very different format, the main advantage seems to be that you can have huge scripts in it (> 64K), somewhat counterbalanced by the fact that scripts simply are bigger in that format. Makes you wonder if it was worthwhile to change it. We used to have a complete list of huge scripts (there aren't many) in ScummVM because we couldn't load them.So, now I understand that it's not really SCI32 vs older, but SCI3 vs older?
If all you want is to mess around with the GK1 class library, I guess you could grab the demo and work with that. It's SCI1.1.Actually, our team has translated GK1 to Hebrew, and I want to fix few issues with right alignment of the text, and re-compile few scripts that have text strings hard wired inside them (as we've done to SQ3 and QFG1VGA).
Two things. SCI Companion's decompilation isn't perfect. Also, because GK1 uses a higher version than SCI1.1 it isn't really supported for compiling.Ok, that makes sense.

While in Phil's version the 'case' think is an error - so I've commented that line.

The trailing zero is required. That's how the word search function knows it's reached the end of the file. If you strip that off, the word search function will continue looking at data from the heap that immediately follows the words.tok file (the OBJECT file), thinking it's valid word data; eventually, a null value will be found, which AGI interprets as the end of words. In most cases, this will happen without the player ever even knowing, because there is almost always a zero value (0x00) byte in the OBJECT file's header. That byte will cause the word search to end.
Even in the unlikely event that you have more than 85 inventory items (which means the header WON'T have a zero value byte), it would be even more unlikely that the rest of the OBJECT file header and item data would contain the exact characters needed to create a false word match before a zero value is eventually encountered.
I don't know the exact algorithms, but I would not be surprised if NAGI and SCUMMVM ignore the trailing null character; they most likely use array indices to keep track of the end of the word list (this is just speculation on my part though).
So, technically, you could have a WORDS.TOK file without the null character at the end, it will work 99.99999% of the time. But it's better to have that ending character, so WinAGI enforces it.
Some of the old Sierra games had WORDS.TOK with odd file sizes (KQ3 in particular). If WinAGI couldn't open them, we would have heard about it, right?Yeah. You're right.
Thanks, man. Unfortunately the list of people who know about Sierra + Apple IIGS games is about as long as the people who actually know details about Sierra's MIDI implementation- something like less than 5, and they don't know each other.
It's been posited the AppleII GS version sends SysEx data at game launch.Where have you seen that? I don't think it's accurate.
v23: Sound Attenuation
For Tandy systems, this variable is used as a global volume control
if (machineType == TANDY)
{
set.key(61, 0, c38);
set.key(45, 0, c39);
set.key(43, 0, c38);
}
if (machineType == TANDY)
{
if (controller(c38))
{
--attenuation;
}
if (controller(c39) &&
attenuation < 15)
{
++attenuation;
}
}
