==Installation== | |||
===Required data files=== | |||
For more information on how ScummVM uses game data files, see the [https://docs.scummvm.org/en/latest/use_scummvm/game_files.html user documentation]. | |||
WARNING: Unlike other games, SCI games have significant variation in the naming of required files. | |||
They also can load supplementary files by resource maps, so it is recommended to keep all files in the game data directory from the CD. | |||
Unless otherwise specified, do '''NOT''' remove any file from the directory, even if it does not appear on the following list, since this will likely cause weird bugs. | |||
Copy all files from each disk or CD to the game directory. Some games need additional work: | |||
'''''Games with multiple CDs''''' | |||
*Directories that exist on multiple discs (e.g. ROBOT and VMD directories) must be merged together, not replaced. | |||
* Rename the RESOURCE.SFX from each CD to RESSFX.00<cdnumber>, and the RESOURCE.AUD from each CD to RESAUD.00<cdnumber>, to match the corresponding RESSCI.00<cdnumber> file that exists on each CD. | |||
*It should be safe to replace any other files from later CDs that were copied already from earlier CDs. | |||
