* There's no guarantee that you'll be able to view your image. This is because big images take a lot of memory (more than the size of the image on disk). If there isn't enough memory left to show the image, ScummVM will tell you so. Try to make the image smaller by either shrinking it or reducing the colors to 256 color palette mode. | * There's no guarantee that you'll be able to view your image.

* Notice that you can switch between games! This is much faster than quitting and having to start ScummVM all over again. Go to the global menu and choose 'Return To Launcher'. (Some games may not have the Return To Launcher option available yet.) | * Notice that you can switch between games! This is much faster than quitting and having to start ScummVM all over again.

* Plugin files are NOT interchangeable between ScummVM versions! You must copy ALL the plugin files that come with every version of ScummVM. They sit in the /plugin subdirectory. If you get a crash upon startup, try deleting all the existing plugin files in the plugin directory and copying the new ones over again. | * Plugin files are NOT interchangeable between ScummVM versions!

'''A''': Possibly. Because of the large amount of games ScummVM supports we obviously haven't played them all start-to-finish on the PSP, so it's possible there are bugs or issues that we're not aware of. When you encounter such a bug, please use the "Bug Tracker" you find linked on the ScummVM website, and mention all relevant info i.e. that you're using the PSP version, which ScummVM version it is, if the problem exists in a recent PC version, a detailed description of the problem, and if at all possible a nearby savegame. This will make it much easier for us to reproduce (and hopefully fix) the problem. | '''A''': Possibly.
