SummVM and ResidualVM in Recalbox 7

[jorgemagana]

Hello, is there a change in ScummVM and ResidualVM emulators?
Since new Recalbox 7 installation I can not run Grim Fandango, is the only game with .residualvm extension. Rest of games with ScummVM extension work without problems.

Grim Fandango worked perfectly in 6.1.1
I have a Pi 4.

I can confirm this problem

What is the problem exactly: game directly returns to the menu ? problem in game ? ...

For me (RPI3B+ with Recalbox 7), it runs.
But the controller mapping doesn't worked anymore. It is due to a change in the ResidualVM code.

I'm investigating ...

@lmerckx said in SummVM and ResidualVM in Recalbox 7:

game directly returns to the menu

in pi4 game directly returns to the menu

I think there are major graphical differences between RPI1-2-3 and RPI4.
And ResidualVM uses a lot of OpenGL(ES) features (unlike ScummVM).
Perhaps it is the cause of the problem.

But unfortunately, I have no RPI4. So, I can't help further.
Sorry.

@suzsuzuki The problem with ResidualVM on PI4 has been identified and will be solved in next version.

@lmerckx Thanks! will Grim Fandango be using the new merge (2.2.0) between scummvm and residualvm?

@jorgemagana I also have a pi 4 and all scummvm games runs skipping frames unless you move the pointer over the screen.

Did you make a fresh install of 7.0.1 or updated from 7?

[jorgemagana]

@qeb fresh install

[lmerckx]

@jorgemagana The merge between ScummVM and ResidualVM has been done after 2.2 and is still unstable.
So no, ScummVM and ResidualVM are still separate.

When a stable version is available, it will be integrated in Recalbox.

@qeb The lag of ScummVM on PI4 will be solved in next release of Recalbox too (7.0.2, I guess).

@lmerckx thanks.

@lmerckx great news! I hope it will be released soon
