| @severin Thanks!
@Amigaz On the A1200T here with BlizzardPPC/256Mb/Voodoo 5550 it crawls unfortunately otherwise Classic users would have been included on the install CD. _________________ Amiga Kit Amiga Store Links: www.amigakit.com | New Products | A600GS

Monkey Island 3 works quite good here but the music in the cut scenes is terribly chopped up _________________ A4000 CSMKII 50mhz A4000 CS PPC 604e@233mhz '060@50mhz A3000 '040@40mhz A1200 '030@50mhz A500+ '030@40mhz

Cheers for setting up the package AmigaKit. Tidy setup.

| Now that i have connected my CDRW and DVD to the Sii0680 ATA133 PCI-controller also, and activated the maximum UDMA mode for the DVD-ROM, installing this game from CD should go way faster! Looking forward to order this in November |

| I bought this at BB3, but I haven't tried it yet.
I was thinking about setting up seperate 5gb games partition, any thoughts. _________________ Peter Swallow. A1XEG3-800 [IBM 750FX PowerPC], running OS4.1FE, using ac97 onboard sound.

I have an 80gb hard drive with a 30Gb partition for games. I don't play too many games but since the size of game directories getting bigger I figure I'd need it.
Some stats:
ScummVM games: 4Gb WHDLoad (Through UAE): 500mb (ish) Loads of the SDL games we have from OS4Depot: 130mb Beats of Rage: 63Mb Earth 2140: 98mb Freespace: 426Mb Heretic 2: 280Mb Quake: 140Mb (Including a few extras) Quake 2: 607Mb Shogo: 402Mb Wipeout 2097: 73Mb
My total games partition is now 8.1Gb full. I've got emulators & 'eye candy' on the same partition too. I guess it really is down to the individual but that might help you a little.

| Just a thought, but maybe its worthwhile doing a classic installer as well,... there's plenty of people using variations on uae with os3.x as thier main OS which would be fast enough to run these games. Also others using Amithlon (myself included), which is for the most part faster than any A1 if used on decent hardware, so obviously thats more than fast enough as well. Even classic bppc machines have a decent go at it and csppc based machines would probably be fast enough to run any scummvm games nigh on perfectly (well as perfect as scummvm is going to get). To be honest though Im surprised people are paying for this and not just finding a cheap copy of the games on ebay or similar, its not like scummvm is hard at all to configure,... heck there's even an idiot proof gui,... but seeing as people are then why not increase the potential "market" ?? |

| Well, people like to support Amiga companies. And if I have understood right, AmigaKit sells "new copies" not 2nd hand ebay stuff. |

| All copies of the games are brand new and sealed/shrink wrapped.
I talk to many Amiga users every week and I will say that lots of Amiga users aren't experts and do not want the hassel of configuring SCUMMVM - the install CD is quite lengthy and literally does all the configuration so you can install and play.. In addition on the CD, there is Amiga specific PDF and game icons ready to go.
There are many experienced users here on AW.net who can fiddle around with SCUMMVM .cfg files - but its my belief that if the future OS4 market is to be accessible to outsiders, we need software that is accessible to all- just as it is in the Windows market.
Also making the games accessible is convenient and means you dont have to go around PC shops/ebay etc to find the software.
I have a very powerful Classic Amiga here and as I have said before - the games are too slow to be enjoyable. I take the point about Amithlon though. But I suppose if you have a PC, you will just boot the original game up in Windows anyway... _________________ Amiga Kit Amiga Store Links: www.amigakit.com | New Products | A600GS

| In hindsight I guess I was commenting from my personal situation (someone who is capable of doing the configuring himself and not working at the moment). I also wasnt aware exactly what additional effort had been put in, nor was I aware that they where new copies of the software, so I change my view from the last post to "Good Work,... keep it up" : ) |

Couldnt of said it any better myself, I bought my copies off ebay but if they were available at Amigakit at the time I would have bought from them and supported the Miggy comunity.

Excellent to see these games being released with installers.
Keep up the good work.
