Broken Sword II: The Smoking Mirror, the second installment in the Broken Sword series, also used a variant of Revolution's Virtual Theatre engine. The game first follows George Stobbard as he rescues his girlfriend Nicole Collard, who had been kidnapped. Later, George and Nicole discover another ancient conspiracy involving an upcoming eclipse and an evil Mayan god.
Installation
Broken Sword 2 was released in several different versions.
- Broken Sword 2: The Smoking Mirror (original version). This version is supported by ScummVM.
- Broken Sword 2: The Smoking Mirror - Remastered.
The Remastered version is not supported by ScummVM. However, most digital stores bundle it together with the original classic version, which runs via ScummVM. On Steam the original version is currently a free DLC, and on GOG it is included as a separate download under the "Extras" section for the Downloads available for this game.

Cutscenes
Copy the .SMK files from the "SMACKS" or "SMACKSHI" directories on the CDs to the same directory as the other game data files.
For the PlayStation versions, you can use the original videos off the disc. For each of the files ending in an "STR" extension, you should dump them as off the disc (all 2352 bytes per sector). For more information, see the wiki HOWTO-PlayStation Videos page.

Boot Params
For more information on using boot params, see the Boot Params wiki page.
Broken Sword 2 handles boot params slightly differently. The startup.inf file contains a list of script resources. For each of these, the game will run script 0 (each script resource can contain several scripts) to give it an opportunity to register any number of starting points. Each starting point is then identified by both its resource and its script number. The descriptions are also provided by the game, but are of course purely decorative.
Currently, ScummVM assumes that when a boot param is specified on the command-line, it should use script 1. As can be seen from the table below that's not always the case. However, you can still access the other start points from the in-game debug console by using the "start" and "starts" commands.
Boot params 19 and 949, with script 1, are what's used to start the demo and full game respectively.
