''Background:'' | |||
ScummVM currently does not support games using Sierra's SCI engine, used for many games from the Space Quest, King's Quest and other series. See [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sierra_Entertainment#SCI here] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sierra%27s_Creative_Interpreter] for more information on SCI. ScummVM does however support AGI, the predecessor of SCI. There have been many requests for us to add support for these games to us. However, there is already a project dedicated to support these games: [http://freesci.linuxgames.com FreeSCI]. | |||
Jordi V, member of both the ScummVM and FreeSCI teams, started to work on a patch which turns FreeSCI into a ScummVM engine. His work can be found [http://darcs.jvprat.com/ here]. It would be nice to improve this backend. Another FreeSCI team member even put up [http://wiki.yak.net/894 some bounties] on some specific tasks. | |||
''The Task:'' | |||
Improve the FreeSCI engine. That is, improve its integration into ScummVM, enhance the FreeSCI code itself, etc. | |||
TODO -- add more content here | |||
