I am a Google Summer of Code 2007 participant working on ScummVM's AGI engine.
== Google Summer of Code 2008 ==
[http://code.google.com/soc/scummvm/appinfo.html?csaid=F91A47F5BDEF4F9E (My GSoC 2007 application abstract)]


The project diary is where I put more verbose stuff about my GSoC 2007 workings.
I'll be working on the [[Cine|Cine engine]] to add support for [[Operation Stealth|Operation Stealth]].

[[AGI/TODO|AGI engine's TODO]]
During summer of 2007 I participated in the Google Summer of Code and worked on
ScummVM's AGI engine.


* Fix game saving & restoring with AGI256 and AGI256-2 games
* [http://code.google.com/soc/2007/scummvm/appinfo.html?csaid=F91A47F5BDEF4F9E My GSoC 2007 application abstract]
* Fix priority screen showing (For debugging) in AGI256 and AGI256-2 mode
* [[User:Buddha%5E/GSoC2007-ProjectDiary|Archive of my GSoC 2007 project diary]]
** Pretty much done, only ego's priority showing still missing
* Write documentation for AGI256 and AGI256-2 hacks
* Disable CGA rendering for AGI256 and AGI256-2 games


== Thinking about adding ==
== ToDo ==


* Create new functionality for loading 256 color palettes (Could be aptly named AGIPAL256)
=== Main ToDo items ===
** And possibly hack it also into AGI256-2's AGI.EXE (Would this be useful?)


At the moment AGI256 and AGI256-2 games have a static 256 color palette, so I think this would be a nice addition.
* Revamp Cine's rendering classes (FWRenderer and OSRenderer)
Thinking about a similar way as as AGIPAL, but this time using shake_screen command's values
** Palette handling could possibly be combined between FW and OS
110+ and using filenames like pal256.110 etc. Or another way would be to add a palette into the end
** Collision page should map to 9th background in OS but it currently doesn't
of an AGI256 picture resource and setting that as the current palette when loading the picture resource.
*** This is actually why the doors aren't revolving in OS's labyrinth arcade sequence
* Add support for [[Operation Stealth|Operation Stealth]] to the [[Cine|Cine engine]]
* Fix [[AGI|AGI]] related bugs
* Finish Apple IIGS sound support for the [[AGI|AGI engine]]
* Add support for loading .INI files to the AGI engine ([https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1881179&group_id=37116&atid=418823 FR #1881179])
* Add support for more than 10 savegames to the [[Cine|Cine engine]]


== Currently working on (Last updated on 2007-06-21) ==
=== Minor ToDo items ===


Got AGI256 and AGI256-2 support done just now,
* Update [http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Datafiles#AGI info on AGI datafiles] to include Apple IIGS related files etc
haven't decided yet what to do next.
* Disable CGA rendering for AGI256 and AGI256-2 games
 
* Add priority drawing for cels in AGI256 and AGI256-2 mode
== Things done during GSoC 2007 ==
* Check if saving & restoring in AGI games is broken when using the 2 argument version of adj.ego.move.to.x.y-command
 
* Add 'restart game' functionality to the Cine engine
2007-05-29:
* Add saving of script names to Operation Stealth's savegames to ease debugging
 
* Took screenshots for AGI games (Almost all of the officials + a couple of fanmades)
* Made thumbs for different AGI game series
** Example: Larry's head for the Larry series, Sarien head for the Space Quest series
 
2007-06-06:
 
* Implemented classes for loading and parsing WinAGI's *.wag files
** WagProperty class
*** Encapsulates a single property from a *.wag file (It usually has several in it).
** WagFileParser class
*** Loads and parses a *.wag file into WagProperty objects.
 
2007-06-08:
 
* Finished the current implementation of fallback detection for the AGI engine.
** This now uses WinAGI's *.wag file parsing as a part in its detection routine.
 
2007-06-21:
 
* Implemented AGI256 and AGI256-2 support into the AGI engine.
 
2007-06-25:
 
* Made a workaround for Gold Rush's intro skipping [http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1737343&group_id=37116&atid=418820 bug #1737343]
