I am a Google Summer of Code 2007 participant working on ScummVM's AGI engine. (My GSoC 2007 application abstract)
The project diary is where I put more verbose stuff about my GSoC 2007 workings.
ToDo
- Fix game saving & restoring with AGI256 and AGI256-2 games
- Fix priority screen showing (For debugging) in AGI256 and AGI256-2 mode
- Write documentation for AGI256 and AGI256-2 hacks
- Talk to Sev about the possibility of closing the AGI256 feature request
- Clean up obsolete console color code from AGI engine
- Fix bug #1737343 "GOLDRUSH: no intro after trivia"
- Also possibly look into other AGI related bugs
Thinking about adding
- Create new functionality for loading 256 color palettes (Could be aptly named AGIPAL256)
- And possibly hack it also into AGI256-2's AGI.EXE (Would this be useful?)
At the moment AGI256 and AGI256-2 games have a static 256 color palette, so I think this would be a nice addition. Thinking about a similar way as as AGIPAL, but this time using shake_screen command's values 110+ and using filenames like pal256.110 etc.
Currently working on (Last updated on 2007-06-21)
Got AGI256 and AGI256-2 support done just now, haven't decided yet what to do next.
Things done during GSoC 2007
2007-05-29:
- Took screenshots for AGI games (Almost all of the officials + a couple of fanmades)
- Made thumbs for different AGI game series
- Example: Larry's head for the Larry series, Sarien head for the Space Quest series

- WagFileParser class
- Loads and parses a *.wag file into WagProperty objects.
- WagProperty class

- Finished the current implementation of fallback detection for the AGI engine.
- This now uses WinAGI's *.wag file parsing as a part in its detection routine.
