=== How do I use a boot param? ===
=== How do I use a boot param? ===


That's quite simple: pick a game from the list, and a boot param for it. Then, specify it on the command line like this:  
Pick a game from the list below, and choose a boot param for it. Then, specify it on the command line like this:  
./scummvm -d0 -b BOOTPARAM TARGET
<code>./scummvm -d0 -b BOOTPARAM TARGET</code>


To be a bit more specific: Let's say you want to get into the hut of the cannibals in Monkey Island 1. Well, the table below tells us that this is boot param 5555. So, enter this on the command line:  
Or on MacOS like this:
./scummvm -d0 -b 5555 monkey


(By the way, this would also work with monkey, monkeyvga etc.).  
<code>open /Applications/scummvm.app --args -d0 -b BOOTPARAM TARGET</code>
 
The ''TARGET'' in the above command should typically be the ScummVM '''ID''' value of the game you are targeting. This means that you should have already added this game successfully in ScummVM and looked up its specific '''ID''' (eg. via the ''Edit Game'' dialogue for the specific game entry).
 
Please use the ''--list-targets'' [[User_Manual/Appendix:_Command_line_options|command line option]] first to list available configured and valid targets to use with the boot parameter command.

<code>./scummvm -d0 -b 5555 monkey</code>

Some of the boot params listed in the following table only work in the CD/Mac version of Monkey Island (and not in 'monkey-ega' and 'monkey-vga'). Those are marked with an asterisk (*) symbol.


Some of the boot params listed in the following table only work in the CD/Mac version of Monkey Island (and not in 'monkeyega' and 'monkeyvga'). Those are marked with an asteriks (*) symbol (except for the cases we overlooked ;-).
In addition to the boot params listed below, you can use values greater than 900 to be teleported to specific rooms. To be precise, if you give the number x, then you get sent to room (x-700).


In addition to the boot params listed below, you can use values greater than 900 to be teleported to specific rooms. To be precise, if you give the number x, then you get sent to room (x-700).
Furthermore, in the CD/Mac versions of Monkey (target 'monkey' or 'monkey-mac', not 'monkey-vga' or 'monkey-ega'), you can specify a boot param between 3000 and 3777 (including both numbers). These will spawn you in the lookout with various flags and objects:
