Replying to [comment:3 Thunderforge]:
> So you're saying that some ScummVM games have thumbnails with savegames
in the original interpreter, but this game does not and that's why we
don't have it?
Precisely
> It seems to me like we could just have ScummVM take a screenshot upon
save and use that. This could either be limited to games without built-in
functionality (if we can distinguish between the two). If for some reason
we can't, I would guess that overriding the built-in functionality would
still result in a functionally equivalent thumbnail.
It's a bit more complicated actually, because of how the AGS engine
manages the saves. Forcing the engine to save the screenshot in any case
is trivial but as I said, maybe it was changed to avoid appending the
screenshot data if not required.
If you want to try and can build from git, it's just a matter of
commenting out line 883 in ags/engine/ac/game.cpp:
{{{
if (_GP(game).options[OPT_SAVESCREENSHOT] != 0)
}}}
