Re: That game again: Beneath A Steel Sky on XP

in DOS
Interesting. I think that the modular idea is great. Of course, then you need to involve the communication between extensions, and I'm not sure of the performance ramifications (if any) of that. Doing that would involve stripping ScummVM down to its bare minimum (just the renderer) and then adding …

Update: Thread display

Whoo. Getting closer. I don't really like the buttons at, um, all.. so if you've got better talent, or suggestions for them... let me know!

Second question, what the hell can …

WinDVD... Macrovision... GeForce 3... urgh.

in Milliways
This is driving me up the wall. I can't watch any DVDs that have Macrovision encoding on them, which I believe is because it is trying to output them to TV-out (when I tell WinDVD to close I see a brief shot of the video on my computer screen, and this is the same behaviour that occurs with WinDVD …
