[Scummvm-devel] C64 Maniac Mansion

[Eugene Sandulenko]

Hi guys,

this day has come.

We're doing rapid progress on MM NES these days mainly to expert work
of Quietust. Now we get most basics things in place, just get some
(apprently script-related) crash when enter the mansion. Also there
are some graphical glitches, most notably are too narrow screen and
wrong color of text messages. But enough on this, see commit log
messages.

Another big thing which periodically arises is C64 MM and Zak. There
were several attempts to decipher data format on disks, most of them
were unsuccessful.

But. Today I got approached by some first-time visitor on #scummvm and
what a surprise. He got MM C64 converted to C++. It is buggy and lacks
proper inventory handling, since does not let enter mansion at all,
but anyway it's a good start.

So if somebody thinks about adding support of C64 titles to ScummVM,
approach me and I'll pass you on all available information/code.
