Hi, bailli.

Thanks for this great work! In fact I wish I had discovered it before because... well... :) In fact I had the very same idea as yourself last year, while totally ignoring your own "Johnny world". Hans' work was definitely quite inspiring, wasn't it !

Anyway, I think you'll wish to have a look at my github repo, and compile my baby: https://github.com/jno6809/jc_reborn

You may have a look at the issues I created too. I see that you encounter the very same issues as myself on WALKSTUF.ADS:1, BUILDING.ADS:2 or SUZY.ADS:2 .... still a mystery to me. I'm at a point where I think a decompilation of the original is mandatory for being really accurate and understanding things, especially BUILDING.ADS:2

BTW, you may have a look at this repo, too: https://github.com/xesf/castaway

Yes, we're many who love Johnny !

regards,

This is a brilliant project to do a port to ScummVM. @bailli you should consider doing it :) I have started the DGDS engine here to support the other games from Dynamix but haven't advanced much yet: https://github.com/xesf/scummvm-engines/tree/dgds-castaway/engines/dgds
