somebody (I think it was Lavos on IRC...) suggested that I'd post
proposed ideas for the FAQ here - so here we go! :-)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
suggestion for 4. Troubleshooting:
xx. I saved the game but it appears nowhere in the loading dialog?
Make sure that the directory in which ScummVM wants to save the data
to actually exists. If it exists, make sure you have write permission.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. is called 'ScummVM and SCUMM games'
but there's no section about 'non-SCUMM games' - maybe rename to
'ScummVM and supported games' ? Would also make sense if you add the
points following.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1 basically says you need the original media; I suggest adding text like:
"There are however games supported by ScummVM which are released as
freeware by now (BASS, FOTAQ). If you want to test Lucasarts games you
may moreover try the demos available at the ScummVM website. Please
keep in mind that these are not officially supported"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.3. is now:
Can I play through xxx (place your favorite SCUMM adventure here) ?
See 1.4 What games does ScummVM support?
I suggest changing to (since there are non SCUMM games now):
Can I play through xxx (place your favorite adventure game adventure here) ?
See 1.4 What games does ScummVM support?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
regarding track naming of .mp3/.ogg/.flac rips of CD audio:
ppl had problems because they named the the files 'track 1' or
'track01' or similar maybe clarify that it has to be 'track1' without
spaces or leading zeroes? neither the FAQ nor the readme seems to make
that clear
