 @m-kiewitz:

 Then I ask you to close this issue and revert back all the changes about
 this ticket (done by sluicebox) in scummvm because it will be totally
 useless. I will do my patch anyway and supply it as I want. I understand
 your point of view as ScummVM tough.

 a.) I could use patch files, but then I will have nearly 60% of scripts in
 files .scr/.tex (but this is doable). Maybe more.
 b.) I NEED to recompile each of that scripts.  I don't understand how I
 will add dialogue boxes that will be shown correctly if I don't do this.
 Some of the rmXXX has positions x/y for the portraits and I need to change
 them for position correctly the dialogue boxes. I try to limit them, but
 it is not very doable here. I don't know how SQ4 is done, but KQ5 is a
 pain in the ass. I had to check near every script for the flags/codes that
 play any audio.
 c.) There WILL BE offsets changed, it is IMPOSSIBLE to add dialogue boxes
 if I don't recompile the scripts. Basically Main.sc has the main code for
 calling external (new scripts) procedures that show the texts. So, you can
 be sure that the saves will not be compatible with text version.
 d.) Although very difficult, I was thinking to make this compatible with
 DosBox. Right now I'm putting all the links of audio<->texts in one file,
 but can be put in different files (I would have to see how this could be
 done yet). But I'm not sure that individual files will work in DosBox.

 Well, that's my position. I assume you will modify ScummVM to make it work
 as SCI Interpreter. But I'm not sure that it will ever be used. Maybe I
 should have not opened this ticket. :(
