ScummVM is great, but only build to run old adventure games. If you want to play anything else, you'll still need Dosbox or VDMS.

You're right Aaberg. But there is no reason not to use ScummVm for Lucas Arts and Revolution Adventures. A very big plus for newbies is the easy to use interface. DosBox should have one too. At least you should visually set fullscreen and change the cd images on the fly.

That is why you use VDMS instead. This is very easy to use: Rigthclick on the .exe and press "run with VDMS". I know it works with sound with the Indiana Jones games, and I would think it works with the most other adventures as well. VDMS also works with other games than adventure games. k:

But I still have Dosbox, because some few games doesn't work with VDMS, and some REALLY old games runs too fast in VDMS. Dosbox can slow this down.

So i still think that ScummVM is superfluous.

But if you have downloadet ScummVM, then use it, it's a great program. I just don't think it's necesarry.

Thanks so much to everyone who posted for their helpful advice. I went with the DOSbox and figured out how to make it fullscreen. Now I'm happily playing my Indy game! Thanks again

BEST GAME EVER!!!!

For somebody who doesn't do thumb-twitch shoot-em-up games, this was pure bliss! Sooo happy somebody found it and brought it back to life .
Thank you!!

Try one of these:
ctrl + c
alt + q
alt + x

I think at least two should work, but I don't really remember anymore.
Just remember to save first or else you'll lose the whole game!
