Hi Paul,

thank you, I tried it, but it won't start. PMDLL tells me that SDL2200.DLL is missing. Do you know where I can get this file? (Prefer not ANPM). Thanks again!

Try https://rpm.netlabs.org/release/00/zip/SDL2-2_0_18-1_oc00.zip

Hi Paul

Which is the correct location of the share path? I'm getting:
Quote
WARNING: You are missing a valid 'translations.dat' file. GUI translation will n
ot be available!
WARNING: generateZipSet: Could not find 'gui-icons.dat'!
WARNING: Could not find theme 'scummremastered' falling back to builtin!
WARNING: initWithU32String: Fribidi not available, will use input strings as fal
lback.!

I had tried different locations of the /share and I can not remove this errors.

What was your PREFIX? Standard /usr/local?

I do Just Start scummvm.exe in the bin directory, I do not have ANPM installed, nor the usr etc directories.

Thanks for the DLL, Paul. It crashes while starting with libc error.  I am on the road now, will Post a screen shot once I am at home again.

Looks promising :D

 Hi Paul,

 I get the same error messages as Martin does, but if I move the contents of '/scummvm/share/scummvm' into the '/scummvm/bin' directory, all errors go away (except the fribidi one, we don't have a fribidi.dll I know of), but then I get a new one that says 'No PNG support compiled!' and it crashes with an exceptq file (attached).

 Regards,

EDIT: found a fribidi.dll on Hobbes by KO Myung-Hun, but it didn't help. Maybe needs to be used during building?

Hi

I rearranged the files in the most easy way possible. (picture attached)

I was able to run ScummVM
- WARNING: initWithU32String: Fribidi not available, will use input strings as fallback.!
- The GUI takes time to load here.
- I downloaded the game Drascula and run it. It took some time to load.  It runs with audio, music is missing from the game. Nice game intro.
- I had played Drascula a little bit in window mode and works fine clicking the screen.
- Full screen mode (Alt+Enter) works, but click and movement is slow (choppy)
- On normal exit it will crash and generate the exceptq file.

You can test these free games: https://www.scummvm.org/games/

Too bad gotcha can not capture the game screen :)

Regards
