* Implement several missing script functions (check scriptfuncs.cpp below)
** sfPlayNote (Used in The Manhole)
 
*** Figure out exactly what the second parameter modifies
=== General ===
* File-specific tasks:
* Barth's blaster cannot be moved to the left of the screen
** Finish up printText() in screen.cpp
* Are ARCH, FREE and OMNI resources needed?
* Only soundblaster music is played. MIDI music playing/MT32 instrument mapping needs more work
 
* Dirty rectangle handling
=== Graphics ===
* RTZ Japanese Font (DOS/FM-Towns/PC-98)
* Some screen effects are missing
** Uses the KROM file found in the base directory for all three
* The palette changes incorrectly in some screen effects (e.g. when the screen fades down)
* Implement missing optional keyboard controls {{Tracker|id=5457}}
* Use "dirty rectangles" (e.g. in updateSprites())
* Implement RTZ loading compatibility if possible.
 
** RTZ savegames are not portable between v1.0 and v1.1+ versions, despite internal version being 623 for all.
=== Sound ===
** V1.0 savegames are 2 bytes larger (when decompressed by gunzip) compared to v1.1+ (19064 vs. 19062 bytes for English).
* Music is disabled in LGoP2 and Manhole (it's not loaded correctly)
* Finish up MIDI music playing (only Soundblaster music is played for now)
 
=== Video ===
* Letters in the intro text of RtZ are not erased properly
* The white house in the intro of RtZ has some strange artifacts when the camera moves around it
* Animations in LGoP2 are incorrectly drawn above text (they should be drawn below it). An example can be seen when talking to the Indian as Lydia and performing the kiss/screw action
* Some of the "screwing" animations in LGoP2 are shown very quickly
* Sound in videos can sometimes be a little choppy (has this been fixed already?)
* Do the sounds in RtZ have weird frequencies? (11127 or 22254)
 
== File-specific tasks ==
=== database.cpp ===
* Read/verify database header
* Verify save game header
 
=== pmvplayer.cpp ===
* Read/evaluate PMV file header
 
=== resource.cpp ===
* Implement resource destructors
 
=== screen.cpp ===
* Implement drawMenuText in drawSpriteChannels
* Implement clipRect in placeSprite(), placeAnim() and placeText()
* Finish up Screen::show()
* Finish up printText()
 
=== script.cpp ===
* Implement the following commands (if needed):
** cmd_svar
** cmd_sset
** cmd_split
** cmd_snlit
** cmd_yorn
** cmd_class
** cmd_vectorp
** cmd_restart
** cmd_catch, cmd_cdone, cmd_throw, cmd_functionp (are these debug-related?)
** cmd_varx
** cmd_setx
 
=== scriptfuncs.cpp ===
* Implement/finish up the following script functions:
** sfPollEvent
** sfPlayMusic (for LGoP2/Manhole)
** sfGetMusicBeat
** sfAddSprite (for RtZ)
** sfPlayCd, sfStopCd, sfGetCdStatus, sfGetCdTime, sfPlayCdSegment
** sfGetSoundEnergy (used to animate the mouths of characters when they're talking)
** sfGetSynthType


* Are the following script functions needed at all?
==  Bugs of the original engine ==
** sfSetTextPos
==== Not Yet Fixed ====
** sfPlayNote
* The screen effect palette changes incorrectly after a PMV video {{Tracker|id=4457}}
** sfStopNote
* Animations in LGoP2 are incorrectly drawn above text (they should be drawn below it). An example can be seen when talking to the Indian as Lydia and performing the kiss/screw action. Also, with Barth, it can be seen from the first screen if you try and shoot Barth's spaceship: Barth will say something, and the smoke from the spaceship will be incorrectly drawn above the letters
** sfPlayTele
