== Status of the Kyra engine ==
==Status==
The current Kyrandia engine in the ScummVM SVN repository can play through [[The Legend of Kyrandia|The Legend of Kyrandia]] (some graphics glitches still occur). The data file (kyra.dat) needed can be found in the SVN section "engine-data" ([https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/scummvm/engine-data/trunk/kyra.dat latest version of kyra.dat], [http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/*checkout*/scummvm/engine-data/trunk/kyra.dat?revision=22700 kyra.dat for ScummVM 0.9.1 (use right-click "Save Link As" to download)]).
=== General ===
The file kyra.dat is required in order to run the games.<br>
This is included with each ScummVM release.<br>


Also ScummVM 0.10.0 (unstable SVN sources) is capable of showing the [[The Legend of Kyrandia: Book Three: Malcolm's Revenge|Malcolm's Revenge]] main menu and playing the introduction sequence.
It can be found seperately in the ScummVM sources in the directory "dists/engine-data" ([https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/blob/master/dists/engine-data/kyra.dat kyra.dat for latest ScummVM development version] or <br>
[https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/raw/v{{StableTag}}/dists/engine-data/kyra.dat kyra.dat for the latest ScummVM release]).
 
=== The Legend of Kyrandia ===
[[The Legend of Kyrandia]] is completable since ScummVM 0.9.0.
 
=== Hand of Fate ===
[[The Legend of Kyrandia: Book Two: Hand of Fate|Hand of Fate]] is completable since 0.12.0 SVN (21 Mar 2008).
 
=== Malcolm's Revenge ===
[[The Legend of Kyrandia: Book Three: Malcolm's Revenge|Malcolm's Revenge]] is completable since 0.12.0 SVN (28 Apr 2008).
 
=== Lands of Lore ===
[[Lands of Lore]] is completable since 0.14.0 SVN (7 Jun 2009).
 
=== Eye of the Beholder ===

== TODO ==
== Tech info ==
* Complain if no game data was found in specified directory instead of assert() and producing bunch of useless warnings.
The items and map lists may include spoilers for the games, so do not look at them if you want to play the games on your own.
* make sound working properly (MIDI sound has some problems)
* Reduce kMD5FileSizeLimit from 1MB to e.g. 80 kb (this might require recomputing some MD5s, but is faster, and good enough for finger printing)


== Tech info ==
The items and the map lists include tips for the game, do not look at them if you want to play the game on your own.
