[QUOTE="Kingmob, post: 176301, member: 55580"] I've written a very simple C++ program so that i can launch ScummVM games. One creates a directory with files that are labeled sky.scumm, tentacle.scumm, etc. In other words, the names ScummVM needs with .scumm added. This way, My Emulator can read it in the database. Then i used the following code to start the games: [code] #include <cstdlib> #include <iostream> #include <string> #include <windows.h> #include <ShellAPI.h> using namespace std; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { std::string ext; std::string filename; filename = argv[1]; ext = ".scumm"; int _i = filename.find(ext); int _j = filename.rfind("\\"); const char *game = filename.substr(_j+1, _i-_j-1).c_str ( ); if (_i == string::npos) return EXIT_FAILURE; else { ShellExecute( NULL, "open", "D:\\Program Files\\ScummVM\\scummvm.exe", game, "D:\\Program Files\\ScummVM", SW_MAXIMIZE); } return EXIT_SUCCESS; } [/code] You can change the location of scummvm and compile it to use it yourself. I just wanted to point out a way to do it and hope there will be scummvm specific options in the plugin soon :) [/QUOTE]
