Space Quest 2 - Vohaul's Revenge (Atari ST) #179

Open Python-Exoproject opened 3 years ago

ScummVM wont detect the game files when platform is set to Atari ST and if use auto detect it says its DOS version. I have disabled the option until resolved.

As with Police Quest 1 (#155) and Mother Goose (#134) I have discovered that I can get this running with platform=atari and GameID "agi-fanmade". This one actually gives version numbers so I can tell that the "Atari" version is version 2.0C, but I still dont know if the problem is that ScummVM hash checks are not working properly for Atari ST or our dump is bad.

As with the other two, your thoughts on the agi-fanmade approach?

To summarise so far:

A few AGI Atari ST games are not detected or are detected as DOS versions by ScummVM. Using the GameID "agi-fanmade" I can override this and get them to work. In the future we will locate our own original copy and dump that, then we will know for sure the issue is on the ScummVM side. We can then approach them to get that version detected properly.

Others with this issue are: #155 #134 #111

Still true in 2.8
