Comment (by dwatteau):

 Hi gabberhead,

 The fallback code that's used when a game isn't in our detection tables is
 sometimes not very good. For example (if my memory serves me well),
 changing a single byte inside the 000.LFL of the VGA floppy release of
 Monkey1 makes ScummVM "think" that it's the EGA release, and then problems
 happen when trying to play that. `testGame()` in
 `engines/scumm/detection_internal.h` could be improved; that's somewhere
 in the lower part of my TODO list :)

 I can't say whether that's the issue in your Indy3 Atari ST case, though.
 That could also be a bug in scummrp/scummtr that corrupts some resources
 or something. I've created an issue in the ScummTR project for that, but
 I'm not sure I will have time for this at the moment...

 Anyway, improving this use-case has never been a high priority in ScummVM,
 yes. It's a bit unfortunate, though, because it does make working on fan-
 translations harder (unless you want to iterate with DOSBox or DREAMM
 until you're done with your translation…).

 I'll see if how I could help, in some way. Maybe I can provide you a
 modified ScummVM that will "tolerate" a modified Indy3 Atari ST a bit
 more, that you could locally use, for as long as you're working on your
 translation -- that could be a quick'n'dirty change, then. If we want a
 cleaner approach for everybody, though, that would require more time and
 I'm not sure I'm going to have it for now…
