Various LucasArts games have debug passwords and key combinations built into the original executable. THESE DO NOT WORK IN SCUMMVM, only in the original dos executable.

The password should be entered as-is, and an activation combination pressed to enter full debug mode. Case matters! If the activation key is ctrl-D, then hold ctrl-shift-d.

Common Debug Keys

These keys are common to most SCUMM debug modes.

  • ctrl-g: Switch rooms
  • ctrl-f: Toggle 'Fast Mode'
  • ctrl-s: Set SCUMM variable (EGA games)
  • ctrl-e: Set SCUMM variable (VGA games)
