ScummVM (01-06-2009) (Wiz misc)

ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the games, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed!

Some of the adventures ScummVM supports include Adventure Soft’s Simon the Sorcerer 1 and 2; Revolution’s Beneath A Steel Sky, Broken Sword 1 and Broken Sword 2; Flight of the Amazon Queen; Wyrmkeep’s Inherit the Earth; Coktel Vision’s Gobliiins; Westwood Studios’ The Legend of Kyrandia and games based on LucasArts’ SCUMM (Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion) system such as Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, Sam and Max and more. You can find a thorough list with details on which games are supported and how well on the compatibility page. ScummVM is continually improving, so check back often.

Release notes:

After finally finding a few hours to clean up code I have had laying around on my hard disk for months I have made up a public alpha release of ScummVM for the Wiz.

You can find all the info on my site including download links, setup info and known issues.

This really is an early alpha so don’t expect very much at this stage.

That said, for most old games it is already running quite well (comparable to the GP2X anyway).

audio is in

– it will pick up notaz mmuhack kernel module if its present (not needed, but included in the zip)
– most menus are usable (a few are still scrolling too fast to use
– floppy access indicators are back and working

The Homebrew Browser allows you to download the latest homebrew applications and games all through your Wii. You don’t need to take your SD card out. You don’t even need a computer! You can also delete homebrew you no longer want.

No more dead links, no more extracting files, no more finding out that the homebrew application doesn’t include an icon.png and meta.xml in the zip file!

Changes:

* Added an updated applications pop-up which can be disabled in the setting. When applications are updated, you will be notified of the date, application and version when starting HBB.
* Added number of Wiimotes supported by applications by showing the number in the Wiimote icon
* Can revert to using IP address if HBB can’t find codemii.com domain
* Added a download icon to indicate which application is being downloaded when you are browsing whilst downloading
* Added setting to disable Wiimote power off as some users experienced their Wii’s turning off automatically
* Fixed bug where download/delete buttons would show when rating an application
* Fixed an issue when deleting applications wouldn’t delete some folders
* Fixed squares that occasionally showed after name, description, etc which would cause creating/deleting directories to fail
* Fixed download queue issue when removing applications from the queue
* Fixed code dumps that occurred when scrolling the lists
