SAGA/TODO

Status

ITE is completable
The Amiga version is not supported yet
Demo versions:
- The newer demo versions of the game are supported
- The older Windows and Mac demos are not supported yet, the game crashes when exiting the first screen
- The original DOS demo is not supported yet, as it is based on very early version of engine, so many structures are different. Most of the resources have been mapped but they're still untested. The actors and objects list needs to be moved to our code. They've been found but not processed yet

The demo has two parts, an interactive and a non-interactive one. It's playable and probably completable

The full game is working with some glitches. It needs further testing. Status:
- Chapters 1-5 (Gorrister, Ellen, Benny, Nimdok and Ted) are completable with full points
- Chapter 6 (Endgame): Needs testing

When the spiritual barometer changes, the character's portrait changes to "happy" or "sad", but the background color is updated only after moving to another screen
Chapter 1 (Gorrister): sfPlaceActor throws a "Wrong frameOffset 0x0" warning when using the knife to scare the mice away in the kitchen
Finish up the save/load dialogs:
- Buttons in confirmation dialogs don't have borders like in the original
- Input line in save game description doesn't have borders like in the original (it does, but its color is wrong)
- Some colors are wrong
- The save game scrollbar is wrong

Implement several missing functions:
- sfScriptFade is not properly implemented, probably a new event type needs to be added (kEventPalFade)
  - The nightfall animation in Benny's chapter is not handled correctly yet, due to the missing sfScriptFade function. Currently, there's a workaround that doesn't show it at all
- sf92 (used in the demo, it's null in the full version). It is called when entering the non-interactive part of the demo through the special options screen of the IHNM demo

Chapter 2 (Ellen): When trying to interact with the monitor on the right in the monitors room, Ellen enters the next room instead. The character interacts correctly with the monitor in the IHNM demo, but there the monitor has a corresponding hitzone, which does not exist in the full version

There's a slight pause (about a second or less) when a digital music track loops, when using compressed music. This pause does not exist when the music tracks are not compressed

We need to find out where following script functions are called:
- SF_cycleColors -- all implementation bits sit in palanim.cpp
- sfPlayVoice -- used in ITE CD

Actors are drawn (some pixels above status bar) at Chota's falling. - Original engine draws its too - so it is not our bug
There is a missing sound sample in the intro of some ITE versions: "The humans also knew the Secret of Life, and they used it to give us the Four Great Gifts:". The missing sound sample is played correctly with the file P2_A.iaf, found in Wyrmkeep's update 2

Make actor animation Event-driven. See FIXME in actor.cpp. Maybe it should be INTERVAL_EVENT
Inspect Font module - free memory, GameFontIds <-> FONT_ID
In many places RSC_LoadResource() is called but memory is not freed afterwards, i.e. there is a huge leak
Optimize screen output. Now we blit whole screen for each frame. Use "dirty rectangles" instead
Remove use of floating point, especially doubles.
Rewrite the IHNM intro credit part (ihnm_introproc.cpp), so that it uses LoadCutawayList, like the original. There's some commented out test code currently that gets the cutaway IDs via LoadCutawayList, but the cutaway playing mechanism for the introduction needs to be rewritten

Sometimes, incorrect music data is parsed to the MIDI parser, leading to a crash. This is occuring frequently in ITE, and rarely in IHNM. Perhaps it's related to some unhandled meta events. The crash always happens at sound/midiparser_xmidi.cpp in MidiParser_XMIDI::readVLQ2 at line 58. Refer to the bug report here
When using the original XMIDI music resources, some songs play at the wrong speed. The worst example I've heard of this is the "Elk Fanfare" during the intro. It could be the meta events we don't handle, but at least the tempo event doesn't seem to make any difference. Maybe something in the data header instead...?
