-We're in the process of reverse engineering modern SCI games (SCI32 games, from the generation of Gabriel Knight 1, Quest for Glory 4, Space Quest 6, etc.). For testing and debugging purposes, having access to good tools to study data files, resources, scripts, and run-time behaviour can be very useful. A number of such tools already exist, including some of our own tools, tools from FreeSCI which need porting to ScummVM, and a few external tools. You may identify gaps in the currently available tools, and in discussion with our SCI development team, propose ways of improving or integrating these tools, with the goal of making it easier to develop support in ScummVM for SCI32 games.
