The first installment in the [[Broken Sword series]],  '''Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars''', also known as '''Circle of Blood''' in the United States, used a variant of [[Revolution]]'s Virtual Theatre engine. The game follows an American tourist named George Stobbard and a French photographer named Nicole Collard, as they investigate a murder in which George is a suspect, and discover a conspiracy involving the ancient order of the Knights Templar, the group of men selected by the Papacy to fight in the Crusades.

== Internal links ==
== Installation ==
* [[Datafiles#Broken_Sword_1:_The_Shadow_of_the_Templars|Datafiles]] required by ScummVM
=== Versions ===
Broken Sword was released in several different versions.
* Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars aka Circle of Blood (original version). This version is supported by ScummVM.
* Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars - The Director's Cut.


The Director's Cut 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.
=== Required data files ===
For more information on how ScummVM uses game data files, see the [https://docs.scummvm.org/en/latest/use_scummvm/game_files.html user documentation].
Other than the speech.clu files that need to be renamed, the files that appear with the same name on both CDs should be identical and you can use one from either CD. The ''2M29.WAV'' file from the Windows release is an exception as the file from the first CD uses a higher sample rate and should thus be higher quality, which is why we recommend using the one from the first CD.
'''''Macintosh Demo and Windows Demo'''''
* CLUSTERS folder
* MUSIC folder
* SPEECH folder
'''''Macintosh'''''
* *.clm
* swordres.rif
* MUSIC folder
* SMACKSHI folder
* SPEECH folder
* Rename speech.clu on CD1 to speech1.clu
* Rename speech.clu on CD2 to speech2.clu
'''''Windows'''''
* *.clu
* swordres.rif
* MUSIC folder (Except 2M29.WAV in CD2)
* SMACKSHI folder
* SPEECH folder
* Rename speech.clu on CD1 to speech1.clu
* Rename speech.clu on CD2 to speech2.clu
'''''PlayStation'''''
* *.clu
* swordres.rif
* speech.tab
* speech.lis
* speech.inf
* speech.dat
* tunes.tab
* tunes.dat
* train.plx
* STREAMS folder ([[HOWTO-PlayStation Videos|how to extract]])
=== Cutscenes ===
Copy the .SMK files from the "SMACKS" or "SMACKSHI" directories on the CDs to the same directory as the other game data files. Broken Sword also has a "SMACKSLO" directory with the same cutscenes, but these are of lower quality.
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 ''raw'' sectors off the disc (all 2352 bytes per sector).  For more information, see the wiki [[HOWTO-PlayStation Videos]] page. 
Some re-releases of the games, as well as the PlayStation version, do not have Smacker videos. Revolution Software has kindly allowed us to provide re-encoded cutscenes, available on our [https://www.scummvm.org/games/#addons-sword1 Games download page]. For subtitle support, choose the cutscene pack with the appropriate subtitle add-on.
These cutscenes are provided in DXA format with FLAC audio. The quality is equal to the original games due to the use of lossless compression. Viewing these cutscenes requires a version of ScummVM compiled with both FLAC and zlib support.
For systems that are too slow to handle the decoding of FLAC audio, the audio for these cutscenes is also provided separately as OGG Vorbis audio. Viewing these cutscenes with OGG Vorbis audio requires a version of ScummVM compiled with both libVorbis and zlib support.
===Game languages===
The following language choices are available when using command-line arguments or the "Language" option in the game-specific settings. For more information, see the [https://docs.scummvm.org/en/latest/settings/game.html user documentation]
* en  - English (default)
* de  - German
* fr  - French
* it  - Italian
* es  - Spanish
* pt  - Portuguese
* cz  - Czech
