'''Escape from Monkey Island''' was the fourth game in the [[Monkey Island|Monkey Island series]], and the second game to use the GrimE [http://www.lua.org/ LUA]-based scripting language.  The game follows Guybrush Threepwood and Elaine Marley as they return to Mêlée Island from their honeymoon.  There they discover that Elaine Marley's position of governor has been revoked, her mansion is scheduled to be demolished, and a politician named Charles L. Charles is running for the governorship.  Guybrush learns that the islands are being purchased one by one, and pirates are being forced out in favor of tacky Carribean-themed tourism.  Guybrush must find out who is threatening his way of life, piracy, and also find a way to save Elaine's mansion.

=== 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].
 
==== CD version ====
You will need to copy the data files from your Escape from Monkey Island CDs into one directory. Specifically, you'll need:
 
* All of the <code>M4B</code> files from both CDs. One of the files is easy to miss:<code>local.m4b</code> is located on CD1 in <code>Monkey4/MonkeyInstall</code>. Note: The file <code>voiceAll.m4b</code> is repeated on both CDs. Use the copy from the first CD, it contains all of the required voice data.
* The <code>Textures</code> directory, combined from both CDs. When copying, rename the <code>FullMonkeyMap.imt</code> files to <code>FullMonkeyMap1.imt</code> and<code>FullMonkeyMap2.imt</code> from CDs 1 and 2 respectively.
* The <code>Movies</code> directory from each CD.
* A copy of the Escape from Monkey Monkey Island updated EXE. You will need a patch specific to the EMI version you're using:
** [https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/extras/patches/MonkeyUpdate.exe English]
** [https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/extras/patches/MonkeyUpdate_BRZ.exe Portuguese]
** [https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/extras/patches/MonkeyUpdate_DEU.exe German]
** [https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/extras/patches/MonkeyUpdate_ESP.exe Spanish]
** [https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/extras/patches/MonkeyUpdate_FRA.exe French]
** [https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/extras/patches/MonkeyUpdate_ITA.exe Italian]
 
* "EFMI Installer" if you have the Mac version of EMI.
 
==== Demo version ====
 
* *.lab
* Movies folder
* Music folder
 
==== PS2 version ====
You will need to copy the data files from your Escape from Monkey Island DVD into one directory. Specifically, you'll need:
 
* All of the <code>M4B</code> files from the DVD.
* The <code>Videos</code>, <code>demos</code>, <code>jambalay</code>, <code>lucre</code>, <code>melee</code> and <code>monkey</code> directories.

=== Joystick/gamepad support ===
If you want to use a joystick or gamepad for navigation, the joystick support of the engine needs to be enabled using one of the following two options:
 
* start ScummVM with <code>--joystick</code> parameter. For more information, see the [https://docs.scummvm.org/en/latest/advanced_topics/command_line.html user documentation].
* add <code>joystick\_num=0</code> to the <code>[scummvm]</code> section of the configuration file. For more information, see the [https://docs.scummvm.org/en/latest/advanced_topics/configuration_file.html user documentation].
 
==Current status in ScummVM==
The ResidualVM GrimE engine is being merged into ScummVM.
 
In the latest daily builds of ResidualVM, Escape from Monkey Island was completable with glitches.
 
== Current development ==
For a list of what is known, and what needs to be done for EMI to be supported see [[GrimE/Research on EFMI|Research on EFMI]]
 
== Debug Information ==
Although the debug system from Grim Fandango was removed, ResidualVM provides some debugging support. Information on the sets and jump points is collected at [[GrimE/Escape From Monkey Island Debug Mode|Escape From Monkey Island Debug Mode]].
