How to set up ScummVM in HS ?

[Marcoqwerty]

Make sure it launches from command line outside HS first. Just create a batch file and put in:

pathtoscumm\scummvm.exe indy3-fm

If it works, then you should have no issue running it from HS.

I've forgot to write a correct NAME ID (= roms.txt name) under SCUMMVM GUI

please disregard my post. Stupid me had the text files and the games in different folders

Everything works great now. Thanks for the module DJVJ

NP, the module should work for any scummvm version. I use the SVN version which shows a 1.5.x version number.

First of all this is my first post, hello everybody and thanks for all your hard work in making this program the best front end!

I was setting up scummvm and following the scripts to run scummvm successfully. I wanted to be able to exit scummvm cleanly and also be able to save games. I used both chillinwater and djvj's scripts to help me set it up successfully. I just wanted to share my working ahk slightly modified to allow save games in scummvm.

;***********************************ScummVM***********************************

else if (systemName = "ScummVM" && executable = "ScummVM.exe")

{

hideDesktop()

Hotkey, %exitEmulatorKey%, CloseProcess

Gui +AlwaysOnTop -Caption +ToolWindow

Gui, color, 0

Gui Show, x0 y0 h%A_ScreenHeight% w%A_ScreenWidth%, HSHIDE

Run, "%emupath%%executable%" %romname%

WinWaitActive, Scummvm.exe

sleep, 2000

Gui Destroy

a::a

d:

a & d::

send, {f5}

Process, waitClose, %executable%

Process, Close, HyperLaunch.exe

return

WinActivate, HyperSpin

}

i changed the alt and x commands to my buttons of choice (in my case a & d) and instead of sending esc it sends f5 which in scummvm brings up the ingame menu that allows you to quit and save etc. When pressing esc i can cleanly exit scummvm and return to hyperspin. I may be wrong and that altering this script will cause other problems but i hope that it helps and maybe some of the more experienced users can improve on this.

Many thanks :-)

First of all, Hello and I love this excessively spinning thing you've made. I saw it on youtube and fell in love.

I've got a bunch of games setup for scummVM and all except three works without a problem. For some reason Loom, Indy 3 and 4 don't run. I got them setup exactly the same way as the other games but when I launch them from hyperspin they won't work. I do get a small window that pops up for a second and then disappears. I also tried running them with a batch file and they DID work that way, however not from hyperspin.

Use full path to roms - disabled.

Search subfolders - disabled.

I got txt set as extension in HQ.

I got a txt file in every game folder.

I got the folders and txt files named the same as in the xml.

I got the ini file together with the ahk (v1.3) in the modules folder.

I'm using ScummVM 1.4.0.0.

I'm a total beginner in every aspect of this but it seem's odd to me that they won't run when all the others do, and I've checked the spelling soo many times.

Is there something I have missed or are these three games problematic in any way?

make sure you are using the 1.5 ahk module, you need to hold down the esc key for at least 1 second and it will exit.

[gamesmame]

Is that a question or an answer to a question? Also that is your first post so welcome.

Have a look at the age of this post. You will see I starts in 2011. It is a bit old. Try searching around to answer your question in the newer posts. If you are having problems finding answers try doing a Google search for what you want and the put site:www.hyperspin-fe.com at the end of your search to limit Google to here.

Oh yeah and try not doing post necro. Kinda confusing.

Bumping an old post.

Same problem here of the esc key not working in-game.

Could you please point me to the 1.5 ahk?

I'm currently using the 1.2 ahk with hyperspin2 and latest version of scumm.

Many thanks!
