My work has gotten much more hectic (partly thanks to a promotion a couple of months back, so I can&#8217;t really complain), but I&#8217;m trying to make more time over the next few weeks for some ScummVMing. Though I will also be moving house, so we&#8217;ll see how it goes.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, my plan is to get back into it by working on T7G Mac to begin with (sighs all round, I&#8217;m sure, but 11H will come at some stage no doubt). It&#8217;s filled with little tricksy problems, not even including getting the files off the disc in the first place. In approximate order of difficulty:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Some files need to be renamed to work<\/li>\n<li>Files are squashed into a single data archive (jvprat has written an extractor)<\/li>\n<li>Fonts are not included, as in the DOS version: native Mac system fonts were used<\/li>\n<li>Music was not MIDI, but Special Mac Fancy Format\u2122<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This last one is the real biggie, so don&#8217;t expect lovely Mac music anytime soon. I&#8217;ll probably have got distracted into 11H before I manage to get Mac music sorted.<\/p>\n<p>PS Btw, if anyone wants to follow me on Twitter, you can find me here: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/hjsb\">http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/hjsb<\/a>.
