#11756: ZVISION: ZGI: Mac-only CD version detected as Windows CD version.
-------------------+-----------------------------------
Reporter:  macca8  |      Owner:  (none)
    Type:  defect  |     Status:  new
Priority:  low     |  Component:  Engine: ZVision
Keywords:          |       Game:  Zork Grand Inquisitor
-------------------+-----------------------------------
 The Mac-only 2-CD English version of Zork Grand Inquisitor, distributed by
 MacPlay in 2001, is currently detected as the Windows English CD version.

 I've confirmed that the md5 checksum and file size of SCRIPTS.ZFS for the
 Mac version do in fact match those recorded for the Windows version, so
 the game does actually launch and is playable.

 However, this is a Mac-only version, and not a hybrid set of CDs, so I
 would expect it to be identified as a Mac version.

 Currently, if I change the platform setting to Macintosh, the game is no
 longer detected and displays the message - Error running game: Game data
 not found.
 Change the setting back to Windows and everything's fine.

 Based on the installation instructions on ScummVM's Data Files page, the
 only apparent difference between the two versions is that the Mac version
 already includes the ADDON directory (also included in the Windows DVD
 version), whereas the Windows CD version requires ''patch 1.2'' to be
 applied.

 I don't know if it's possible to set multiple platforms on a single
 detecton entry, but even if Windows is the default, it would be nice to
 switch to Macintosh without blocking the game.
