→Simultaneous speech and subtitles: The additional setting is labeled "BOTH" not "DUAL". Also there's no "MODE" button in this game (unlike The Dagger of Amon Ra). The user just clicks on the SPEECH/TEXT/BOTH button itself which changes its label accordingly.

The Amiga version was converted by [[Revolution|Revolution Software]] and used a variant of their Virtual Theatre engine. This version is not supported by ScummVM. The engine used is similar to the Amiga version of [[Beneath a Steel Sky]], which is also not supported by ScummVM. | The Amiga version was converted by [[Revolution|Revolution Software]] and used a variant of their Virtual Theatre engine.

==Installation== | |||
===Required data files=== | |||
For more information on how ScummVM uses game data files, see the [https://docs.scummvm.org/en/latest/use_scummvm/game_files.html user documentation]. | |||
WARNING: Unlike other games, SCI games have significant variation in the naming of required files. | |||
They also can load supplementary files by resource maps, so it is recommended to keep all files in the game data directory from the CD. | |||
Unless otherwise specified, do '''NOT''' remove any file from the directory, even if it does not appear on the following list, since this will likely cause weird bugs. | |||
Copy all files to the game directory. Some games need additional work: | |||
'''''Floppy games with RESOURCE.p01, p02, etc. and/or RESOURCE.a01, a02, etc. files''''' | |||
* Concatenate all RESOURCE.p0* files to RESOURCE.000 (e.g. <code>copy /b RESOURCE.p0* RESOURCE.000</code> on Windows, or <code>cat RESOURCE.p0* > RESOURCE.000</code> on *nix). | |||
* Concatenate all RESOURCE.a0* files to RESOURCE.AUD (e.g. <code>copy /b RESOURCE.a0* RESOURCE.AUD</code> on Windows, or <code>cat RESOURCE.a0* > RESOURCE.AUD</code> on *nix). | |||
==Simultaneous speech and subtitles== | |||
In ScummVM, it is possible to enjoy a combined mode, where both speech and text are shown at the same time. | |||
Speech and text can be toggled via a button in the options dialog (with an extra "Both" setting added in ScummVM), or via ScummVM's audio options. | |||
