This article needs some changes.

DDP may never be supported, it uses the first v2 AGI engine AGI v2.01 which we dont support. 2.01 is more like agi V1 than V2.

It exists as a booter disk rather than 'files', so giving a list of recommended files etc is only valid for the broken 'rip' of the Atari ST version using an incorrect dos interpreter. Stu 20:31, 6 May 2007 (CEST)

It Does Work

ScummVM 1.2.0svn detected this as "agi-fanmade" and it appears to be at least partially playable. The sound is off-pitch, though. --Quietust 02:40, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, but which version of DDP are you using? Stu's message above pretty much explains the current situation. -Clone2727 02:55, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
Amiga, actual version number unknown. The only thing that actually appears to be broken is the vegetable grocer's minigame (when they toss you a watermelon, it gets stuck in the air) - everything else works correctly. As a side note, the Wikipedia article for this game indicates that ScummVM does support it, so this page itself is outdated. --Quietust 03:39, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
Looks like setting the sound driver to "IBM PCjr or "PC Speaker" fixes the audio being off-pitch. --Quietust 03:10, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
Just a couple questions: 1) I understand about not supporting the cobbled together PC booter version, but if it works for other system(s) in unmodified form, why would it still be unsupported? 2) If it is unsupported, shouldn't it be removed from the engines page? The engine page and this talk page are where my confusion about the support status stemmed from. MetaFox 11:13, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
1) There are other problems with it, iirc. 2) It should not have been added to the Engines page, that was a mistake that none of us caught in the recent change of the page. -Clone2727 13:58, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
Ahm sowwy, I could have added a comment when I removed it from the Wikipedia page, it was actually sev himself who added it by fault. --Lightkey 20:00, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
