![]() ![]() It's slow due to the age of the laptop, but it is playable and slower play comes with the territory. You would have to manually change the rendering to SDL type, which requires either using 2.5 to reach the Options screen or manually install the INI file with the proper settings (this is how I got it running in Puppy Linux mode), but once it runs so far so good. I found a Daily Build which does work on that antique hardware. But that's not likely, and those are the only two Unity games which have ever worked. Unless by "Unity" they mean whichever version was used for the two "Running Sheep" games. So there is almost no chance it will work on that laptop. Now for the bad news- over at Steam they say that Gingertips "Foxtail" is now going to use the.UNITY engine. This is all the more remarkable because it won't run on Operating Systems earlier than Vista according to one of the programmers. Since daily builds become official builds it won't be much longer before "Zniw Adventure" is playable even on that antique. So it seemed like a good idea to mention it. It seemed likely "Morphopolis" was a false positive and was not even going to mention it- except this does not happen with SCUMMVM 2.2, and technically it is a point-and-click game. Problem is it yields a "not a valid Win32 application" error message on the 32-Bit Sony, and breaking it down with 7Z does not help. So using a daily build of ScummVM (from ) you might be able to go further. There is a known bug that has now been fixed in the development version of ScummVM that indeed prevented from getting past the language selection screen in that game: ![]() Downloaded it, tried it- it never gets past the "Language Selection" screen So, over to Downloads here I went, and saw 2.5. Recently I tried to get the Steam game "Zniw Adventure" Try to run it and you get a white window saying "ERROR: Invalid projector tag found in v4 EXE !ĭoes this mean this weird game is actually going to eventually work on SCUMMVM along with "Zniw Adventure?" That would be even more amazing. When you click "Choose" you actually get a result! It says it's an "unknown game variant" and the matched game ID for the director engine is "athletics-win," the rest says "Project.EXE" (the name of the game's EXE file), 0, 9bcde08c17abe2c9f536b144d544b695, 3347456."Ĭlick "Add Anyway" and the ID is "athletics-win-1" and the name "International Athletics (Windows/English). There is a game called "Morphopolis" at Steam and GOG Now here's the weird part- just at random I go through other games, seeing what else SCUMMVM can do. I had to use 2.2 to make that switch for 2.5 on the Sony. The only recommendation is that like 2.2 you can manipulate the windowed size, and the configuration file (maybe include a shortcut to it in the EXE's folder?) has something to manually allow one to switch between DirectX and OpenGL. ![]() If the other download works for Windows 98- or even 95!- and can get the game running then of course the potential pool of customers for the game is GREATLY increased too. This in of itself is impressive because it's the first time I've seen something for Vista or later run at all on the thing. Downloaded it, tried it- it never gets past the "Language Selection" screen, but it did get that far on the XP Sony even. However, the most recent version of SCUMMVM was said to run it. I was told in the forums there that it can run as a standalone but needs Vista at least. Now, there are three reasons this can happen: 1) It's a 64-Bit application 2) the EXE file needs to be "extracted" by something like WinRAR, or 3) it requires a later Operating System. As it can use DirectX 9 there was a chance- with SwiftShader 2.1- the game would work, but all I got was "not a valid Win32 application." Recently I tried to get the Steam game "Zniw Adventure" running on the old 2001 Windows XP 32-Bit Sony VAIO.
