Hey everyone,
The last post on this was back in June of 2016, so rather than resurrecting an old thread, I started a new one.
Edit: I read the sticky on ScummVM (windows based) but its very lost in translation because the file structure is somewhat different on Ras Pi
I am trying to add ScummVM to my current AM build. I have tried the following entries in the "add emulator" feature of AM and have gotten mixed results, I am guessing because of the structure of the roms, since they are folders, not individual files.
This is the entry I found:
executable /opt/retropie/emulators/scummvm/bin/scummvm
arguments -f -p [rompath][name] [name]
rom url /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/scummvm
extension .svm
Now I am a bit confused as to the arguments. I have two roms I am trying to add, full throttle & curse of monkey island (i legally own a copy of both games). The rom folders are: /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/scummvm/ft/ for full throttle (scummvm's naming system) and /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/scummvm/comi/ for curse of monkey island.
I am very confused as to how to set up the arguments based on the folder structure I just provided, need help there. The [rompath][name][name] is confusing.
In addition, the extensions of the files in these folders are either LA0, LA1, or LA2, none of them have a .svm extention (referenced in the code I posted above)...not sure if that makes a difference?
Please note both these games are working when launched from ScummVM in ES, so no issues with the roms.
I don't mind launching ScummVM to have to launch the games, I just want a ScummVM emulator option in my build.
Any help is greatly appreciated, new to all of this and this forum is a massive wealth of help and info!!!!
