![Translation status](https://translations.scummvm.org/widgets/scummvm/-/287x66-white.png)

Until now, translating the ScummVM software was not straightforward. Contributors had to get the translations template file to their computer, update the translation using a dedicated application, and then propose the updated translation to the ScummVM team using a [Pull Request](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-pull-request/) or [our bug tracker](https://bugs.scummvm.org/). The ScummVM team itself also had some manual tasks to perform, such as updating the translation templates from the source code when needed or rebuilding the binary translation file after receiving a translator's contribution.

All this belongs to the past. Now, thanks to our new [translations website](https://translations.scummvm.org/), powered by [Weblate](https://weblate.org/), updating the translations is easier and more comfortable than ever before. Translation templates are updated automatically when needed, and so is the binary translation data file. Translators now just have to translate. That's it. The website also helps translators by performing automated quality checks and suggesting (machine) translations.

Finally, the new site also adds a community aspect to translations, enabling users to vote for suggested translations and even make their own suggestions. Anybody can view the translations, but you will need to log in to make suggestions, comment, and vote. You can log in using your GitHub or Facebook account, or by creating an account on the website. You will still need to contact us if you want to contribute further (for example to start a new translation or help on an existing one), as we will need to grant you access to the Translators group. Unlike regular users, translators can accept or reject suggestions and modify translations directly. Contact us by visiting the #scummvm IRC channel on irc.freenode.net or by sending an email to [translation@scummvm.org](mailto:translation@scummvm.org) if you are interested in becoming an official translator. Otherwise, head over to [https://translations.scummvm.org/](https://translations.scummvm.org/) now, and help us make ScummVM accessible to everyone.

	20160502.title	It is Time to Test ScummVM 1.8.1 Release
	20160502.content	Since the 1.8.0 release we've been very busy with fixing small and big bugs in the newly supported engines, and now we are almost ready to present you the result in a form of the ScummVM 1.8.1. Please, help us to test a few games, especially those which were not touched for a long time, or those which have significant changes in their engine. We prepared a short list on [our wiki](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.8.1). Also from now on we encourage you to test any game which we support and report any bugs or your success on the forum so we can keep track of current state of affairs in the ScummVM Land. For testing the pre-release you need to download a [daily build](/downloads/#daily) of ScummVM. If you spot some glitches or bugs, please report them on our [bug tracker](http://bugs.scummvm.org/). If everything went smoothly, please report your success on [the forums](http://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?t=14077), and we will instantly reflect it on the [wiki](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.8.1) (yes, you can be famous for your testing efforts!) You can find a guide on how to test a new release [here](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing).

	20160525.title	ScummVM 1.8.1 "Where Is Your Android?" maintenance release is out
	20160525.content	It has been a couple of months since ScummVM 1.8.0, which means it’s time for a new point release! ScummVM 1.8.1 is now available with fixes for important bugs and support for even more platforms. One of the most important "features" of this release is a major upgrade to the Android port. This upgrade also adds support for the OUYA console. We are currently working on bringing this new release straight to Google Play, but for the impatient among you, feel free to go ahead and [install the APKs manually](/downloads). The Android port now comes in two flavours, our "classic" OpenGL-based one, and a new variant based on SDL. The SDL port has better compatibility with some Android devices and also works better with some engines. Please give it a try and tell us on [our forums](http://forums.scummvm.org/viewforum.php?f=17) or via the [bug tracker](http://bugs.scummvm.org/) about your experience. We will also be adding Nintendo 3DS support! As of release time, the new binaries have not yet been built by our new porter, but they should be available soon. Keep your eyes peeled! 64-bit Mac binaries now include experimental automatic update checking using [Sparkle](https://sparkle-project.org/). Auto-updating is selected as an opt-in during your first start up, and by default checks weekly for new releases. When version 1.9.0 is released, users of 1.8.1 will be presented with a nice dialog for updating. If you'd like to see a similar feature for Windows or other platforms, let us know! All the details on how the update process works can be found [here](https://sparkle-project.org/). No ScummVM release would be complete without game engine updates! ScummVM 1.8.1 includes fixes for Drascula, Legend of Kyrandia, Labyrinth of Time, localized versions of I Have No Mouth, Broken Sword 2.5 and improvements to the Windows, OS X and GCW0 ports. The full list of changes included in this release can be found in [the release notes](https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/scummvm/1.8.1/ReleaseNotes) and the binaries are provided on our [downloads page](/downloads/). Get ready, grab your beloved Android device, install ScummVM on it, and play!
	20160606.title	Help Gnap to Repair His U.F.O.!
	20160606.content	While traveling through space in his spaceship, Gnap ran out of gas and crashed in the middle of a redneck farm. He's now lost on planet Earth and needs your help to fix his U.F.O. so he can continue his journey! The ScummVM Team is proud to announce that U.F.O.s aka GNAP: Der Schurke aus dem All is now playable in ScummVM using the [latest daily builds](/downloads/#daily), and is ready for testing. Please report any bugs as well as unknown versions you find in our [bug tracker](http://bugs.scummvm.org/), following our [bug submission guidelines](/faq/#question.report-bugs). As usual, we'll also love to see the [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) of your playthrough!
	20160816.title	ScummVM project has moved to new Issue Tracker
	20160816.content	Thanks to the hard work of wjp, we have moved away from SF.net to our own tracker at [https://bugs.scummvm.org](https://bugs.scummvm.org). This new service should be faster and more reliable than the old SF.net bug tracker. All information has been migrated from the old bug tracker, including patches (though these days we encourage people to submit patches using a [GitHub Pull Request](https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/pulls) instead). For authentication, the new bug tracker uses GitHub accounts via OAuth2, which should make signing up safer and easier. We transferred all accounts from SF.net, but did not set up any e-mail addresses. Thus, after you log in for the first time, please make sure you specify your e-mail address in the preferences, otherwise we will not be able to get in contact with you.
	20160913.title	ScummVM Release 1.9.0 Testing Has Begun
	20160913.content	Time flies quickly, and now it is time to start the release cycle for ScummVM 1.9.0. Two new game engines became production quality, and we would like to ask you to test the following games: * Myst * Myst: Masterpiece Edition * U.F.O.s Also, our SCI engine team has been busy improving the ScummVM experience with Sierra games, particularly with fixing the original script bugs. Thus, we would like to ask you to test several of those games as well. The complete list of the games that require testing for this release can be found on [our wiki](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.9.0). Please use a [daily build](/downloads/#daily) of ScummVM for testing. In case you encounter any bugs, there is a place for them to be reported at our [bug tracker](https://bugs.scummvm.org/). Please, also track your progress on [the forum thread](http://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?t=14161) and we can cross it out on the [wiki](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.9.0). Please make sure to follow our guidelines for release testing which can be found [here](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing). Also we're still lacking some [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots), so please don't forget to snap some during your gameplay.
	20160915.title	Adventure History in the Mystery House
	20160915.content	"You are in the front yard of a large, abandoned Victorian house." You can now experience adventure game history, and play Sierra's early Hi-Res Adventure #1: Mystery House in ScummVM. Dare you leap back to 1980 and take the steps up to the porch? Grab the game and a [daily build](/downloads/#daily), and join our testing by stepping back in time. We're proud to announce that we now also have support for several other games using the same ADL system — which feature advanced technologies such as color graphics! Perhaps you'd rather save the planet (Hi-Res Adventure #0: Mission Asteroid), or save the princess ( Hi-Res Adventure #2: The Wizard and the Princess)? We're working on the rest of the Hi-Res Adventure games, but in the meantime, we're releasing support for the Apple II versions of these three games for testing, and look forward to seeing any bug reports for problems you might find. We'd like to include these in our next release, so be sure to read through our [testing guidelines](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing), and don't forget to take some [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots). Mystery House was released into the public domain by Sierra On-Line in 1987, to celebrate their 7th anniversary. You can [download it](https://www.scummvm.org/games/#mysthous) for free. For more details about the other games and where you might be able to buy a copy, take a peek at [our wiki pages](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/ADL). If you happen to have original floppies for any of the Hi-Res Adventure games (for any platform), we want to hear from you. In particular, if you have an Apple II version of Hi-Res Adventure #3: Cranston Manor, please get in touch. Many of these games are rare, and we cannot add support for all the different releases without your help!
	20161017.title	ScummVM 1.9.0 "Myst-ery U.F.O.s release" is out
	20161017.content	Our one month testing period is over. Thanks to a lot of help from you, our fellow users and testers, we are now ready to ship our next release. As always, we have been busy adding more games and enhancing old ones. Now, after many years in production, we are proud to announce support for Myst and Myst: Masterpiece Edition. Besides that, we now support U.F.O.s and the early Sierra Hi-Res adventures, namely Hi-Res Adventure #0: Mission Asteroid, Hi-Res Adventure #1: Mystery House and Hi-Res Adventure #2: The Wizard and the Princess, for a total of six newly supported games. With this release we are switching to SDL 2, so please, [report any bugs](https://bugs.scummvm.org) you encounter. Last time we introduced Sparkle-based updates for Mac, and now we're trying to launch it also for Windows. Hopefully, you will see it in action once we release our next version. Once again, we would like to mention that auto-updating is selected as an opt-in during your first start up. By default, if you enable it, it will check weekly for new releases. Screenshots of this in action can be seen at [the WinSparkle website](https://winsparkle.org). Notable bugfixes and enhancements include Hercules rendering and font for the AGI games, numerous bugfixes to SCI games, enhanced Sherlock games experience, and AmiUpdate on the Amiga port. The full list of changes included in this release can be found in [the release notes](https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/scummvm/1.9.0/ReleaseNotes) and the binaries are provided on our [downloads page](/downloads/). Wait no more, and start playing Myst or U.F.O.s right now!

	20161201.title	Make your Full Pipe dreams come true
	20161201.content	The Dude... the Pipe... the Dark-Burrow-Dweller... and you. After several years of development, the ScummVM Team is pleased to announce full support for the obscure, fancy, and engaging adventure game The Full Pipe (Полная Труба in Russian). Grab your Game CD (Android and iOS versions are not supported), the [daily build](/downloads/#daily), and help us test Dude's adventures in the world of Small Fries. The game is not available in English, but doesn't have any text other than in the menus. Thus if you don't have the game already you can buy the German version published by [Daedalic Entertainment](http://www.daedalic.de/de/Game/Full_Pipe). Before you start your test run, we encourage you to read through our [testing guidelines](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing), and please take some [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) along the way. Now, go! The Dude just has fallen into the deep full pipe.
	20170306.title	Welcome to the largest Summer of Code ever
	20170306.content	![GSoC Logo](/data/news/GSoC2017Logo.png) This year, Google announced the largest Summer of Code ever, with 201 accepted organizations. We are very pleased to announce we are participating this year again, together with our sister project ResidualVM. Are you a motivated student? Do you want to participate in the largest Google Summer of Code ever? Do you want to be known as a contributor to one of the largest game preservation projects? Then ScummVM and ResidualVM are waiting for you! Have a look at [our ideas page](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Summer_of_Code/GSoC_Ideas_2017) or bring your own idea! In any case, don't hesitate to chat with us on IRC! One place: Freenode. Two channels: #scummvm and #residualvm
	20170401.title	Take off your tie and become a plumber!
	20170401.content	We are very proud to announce that Retro-Junk has been working on ScummVM support for one of the most important games of Video Game History: Plumbers Don't Wear Ties! Over the past few years, we've had a constant stream of requests asking us to investigate support for this genre-defining masterpiece. It changed the gaming industry forever, by introducing (among many other innovations) an awesome negative-filtered intro (with karting pandas), FMP as a genre game (Full Motion Pictures), and even to this day remains the only game which uses 42nd degree humour. The engine reflects the astonishing complexity of the game, with 500 lines of code - at the time of writing, it would be one of the largest engine (62nd largest to be precise) in our tree. As you can imagine, it will take us some time to review and get it merged. However, you can already grab the source code from [this pull request on GitHub](https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/pull/932), build a copy and play it (only PC version supported currently). And remember, we are always interested in new screenshots! We'd also like you to join us and give a very special thank you to two of our developers, uruk-hai and t0by. They've continued to relentlessly push for support of this game, keeping everyone motivated. This work may not have been possible without them! Before you start your test run, we encourage you to read through our [testing guidelines](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing), and please take some [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) along the way. Now, go! Grab your copy of the game and the code, and enjoy this historical moment! Update: If you thought it was an April Fool's Day joke, you have been trolled. The Pull Request on GitHub is genuine, and ScummVM will really support Plumbers Don't Wear Ties if it gets merged.
	20170401a.title	We are changing our name!
	20170401a.content	Update: we were unable to reserve the plumbervm.org domain and thus, with a heavy heart, we decided to abandon our rebranding effort and go back to our old name. Long live ScummVM! The issue of the name of ScummVM has been raised many times since we started to add engines for non-SCUMM games. Until now we decided to keep the original name. However, the addition today of an engine for Plumbers Don't Wear Ties changes everything. Due to its fame and reputation for being one of the best video game ever, it naturaly becomes the flagship of what we stand for. Thus we have finally decided to change our name. We are now PlumberVM! We used the name ScummVM for over 15 years, and this is with sadness that we say goodbye to it. It is a well known name and we do not underestimate the effort it will take to get the same recognition for our new name. Thus we are calling on your help to spread the news. In the short term this will inevitably lead to some disruption and confusion. But in the long term we are convinced that this is the right decision. With your support we will conquer the world! Starting from the sewers. With the change of name we have also decided to expand even more the scope of our project. Last year we decided to accept engines for RPG games in addition to adventure games. Now we are also accepting any games that feature a plumber. Work has already started on the little known Super Mario Bros., and we have big plans for the future. We will have a big announcement soon, so stay tuned. On a final note, it will take time for us to update all the places where our name appears. We have started today with our main website and you will notice in the next few days the change spreading to our social media accounts, wiki, forum and the pages not yet updated on our web site. We are also working on releasing PlumberVM 2.0 with the addition of two new supported games: Plumbers Don't Wear Ties and Full Pipe. This will happen as soon as the last few bugs in our engines for Plumbers Don't Wear Ties and Full Pipe have been squashed. Hopefully we won't find mutant turtles during testing. Squashing those is a real pain!

The first batch of 32-bit DOS/Windows Sierra adventures are now ready to be tested in the latest [daily build](/downloads/#daily) of ScummVM: * [Gabriel Knight](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Gabriel_Knight) * [Gabriel Knight 2](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/The_Beast_Within) * [King's Quest VII](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/King%27s_Quest_VII) * [King's Questions](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/King%27s_Questions) * [Leisure Suit Larry 6 (hi-res)](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Leisure_Suit_Larry_6) * [Phantasmagoria](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Phantasmagoria) * [Police Quest 4](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Police_Quest_IV) * [Shivers](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Shivers) * [Space Quest 6](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Space_Quest_6) * [Torin's Passage](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Torin%27s_Passage) The [Datafiles page](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Datafiles#All_SCI32_.28SCI2.2F3.29_games) has been updated with instructions on how to install these games. If you don’t own some, go to our [where to get the games](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Where_to_get_the_games#Sierra_Games) page to buy them! Before you start your test run, please read the instructions on our [SCI testing page](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/SCI/Testing), and take some [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) along the way. (If you have been itching to play some of the earlier SCI games, please take this time to run through them again too, as changes to the engine may also affect some 16-bit SCI games!) Have fun!
	20170505.title	GSoC 2017 projects announced!
	20170505.content	![GSoC Logo](/data/news/GSoC2017Logo.png) Today Google announced the accepted projects for this year's Summer of Code. We are pleased to say that ScummVM will be mentoring two wizard students who will have one mission: casting the Super Sludge Nova spell. Effects include adding support for two new engines, and the cooldown period is 12 weeks: * Joseph-Eugene Winzer (a.k.a. Joefish) will be working on adding support for the *[Mission Supernova](http://outpost.simplicity.de)* game. * Simei Yin will work on porting the *[Sludge engine](https://opensludge.github.io)* to ScummVM. We extend a warm welcome to our students for what we hope will be a productive and interesting summer! You can follow their progress throughout the summer on the [ScummVM Blogs](http://planet.scummvm.org).
	20170617.title	Hi-Res Adventures
	20170617.content	Last year, we added support for three of Sierra's Hi-Res Adventure games: Mystery House (#1), Mission: Asteroid (#0) and Wizard and the Princess (#2). We're proud to announce that three more Apple II games are now playable in ScummVM and ready for testing: Ulysses and the Golden Fleece (#4), Time Zone (#5) and The Dark Crystal (#6). For Ulysses and the Golden Fleece, we currently support the Load 'N' Go budget release. For Time Zone and The Dark Crystal we support the disk images that can be found on some of the [Sierra collection CDs](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/SCI/Game_Collections). The [Datafiles wiki page](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Datafiles) has been updated with the required filenames for the disk images. If you own one of those classics, grab the latest [daily build](/downloads/#daily) and try it out! If you encounter an issue, please post a bug report following our [testing guidelines](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing). And while you're at it, please take some [screenshots!](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) You may be wondering what happened to Hi-Res Adventure #3: Cranston Manor. Unfortunately, we still have not been able to locate a copy of this game after looking for it for over a year. If you own it, we'd love to [hear from you](/contact/)!

	20160816.content	Thanks to the hard work of wjp, we have moved away from SF.net to our own tracker at [https://bugs.scummvm.org](https://bugs.scummvm.org). This new service should be faster and more reliable than the old SF.net bug tracker. All information has been migrated from the old bug tracker, including patches (though these days we encourage people to submit patches using a [GitHub Pull Request](https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/pulls) instead). For authentication, the new bug tracker uses GitHub accounts via OAuth2, which should make signing up safer and easier. We transferred all accounts from SF.net, but did not set up any e-mail addresses. Thus, after you log in for the first time, please make sure you specify your e-mail address in the preferences, otherwise we will not be able to get in contact with you.

	20160913.content	Time flies quickly, and now it is time to start the release cycle for ScummVM 1.9.0. Two new game engines became production quality, and we would like to ask you to test the following games: * Myst * Myst: Masterpiece Edition * U.F.O.s Also, our SCI engine team has been busy improving the ScummVM experience with Sierra games, particularly with fixing the original script bugs. Thus, we would like to ask you to test several of those games as well. The complete list of the games that require testing for this release can be found on [our wiki](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.9.0). Please use a [daily build](/downloads/#daily) of ScummVM for testing. In case you encounter any bugs, there is a place for them to be reported at our [bug tracker](https://bugs.scummvm.org/). Please, also track your progress on [the forum thread](http://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?t=14161) and we can cross it out on the [wiki](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.9.0). Please make sure to follow our guidelines for release testing which can be found [here](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing). Also we're still lacking some [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots), so please don't forget to snap some during your gameplay.
	20160913.title	ScummVM Release 1.9.0 Testing Has Begun
	20160915.content	"You are in the front yard of a large, abandoned Victorian house." You can now experience adventure game history, and play Sierra's early Hi-Res Adventure #1: Mystery House in ScummVM. Dare you leap back to 1980 and take the steps up to the porch? Grab the game and a [daily build](/downloads/#daily), and join our testing by stepping back in time. We're proud to announce that we now also have support for several other games using the same ADL system — which feature advanced technologies such as color graphics! Perhaps you'd rather save the planet (Hi-Res Adventure #0: Mission Asteroid), or save the princess ( Hi-Res Adventure #2: The Wizard and the Princess)? We're working on the rest of the Hi-Res Adventure games, but in the meantime, we're releasing support for the Apple II versions of these three games for testing, and look forward to seeing any bug reports for problems you might find. We'd like to include these in our next release, so be sure to read through our [testing guidelines](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing), and don't forget to take some [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots). Mystery House was released into the public domain by Sierra On-Line in 1987, to celebrate their 7th anniversary. You can [download it](https://www.scummvm.org/games/#mysthous) for free. For more details about the other games and where you might be able to buy a copy, take a peek at [our wiki pages](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/ADL). If you happen to have original floppies for any of the Hi-Res Adventure games (for any platform), we want to hear from you. In particular, if you have an Apple II version of Hi-Res Adventure #3: Cranston Manor, please get in touch. Many of these games are rare, and we cannot add support for all the different releases without your help!

	20161017.content	Our one month testing period is over. Thanks to a lot of help from you, our fellow users and testers, we are now ready to ship our next release. As always, we have been busy adding more games and enhancing old ones. Now, after many years in production, we are proud to announce support for Myst and Myst: Masterpiece Edition. Besides that, we now support U.F.O.s and the early Sierra Hi-Res adventures, namely Hi-Res Adventure #0: Mission Asteroid, Hi-Res Adventure #1: Mystery House and Hi-Res Adventure #2: The Wizard and the Princess, for a total of six newly supported games. With this release we are switching to SDL 2, so please, [report any bugs](https://bugs.scummvm.org) you encounter. Last time we introduced Sparkle-based updates for Mac, and now we're trying to launch it also for Windows. Hopefully, you will see it in action once we release our next version. Once again, we would like to mention that auto-updating is selected as an opt-in during your first start up. By default, if you enable it, it will check weekly for new releases. Screenshots of this in action can be seen at [the WinSparkle website](https://winsparkle.org). Notable bugfixes and enhancements include Hercules rendering and font for the AGI games, numerous bugfixes to SCI games, enhanced Sherlock games experience, and AmiUpdate on the Amiga port. The full list of changes included in this release can be found in [the release notes](https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/scummvm/1.9.0/ReleaseNotes) and the binaries are provided on our [downloads page](/downloads/). Wait no more, and start playing Myst or U.F.O.s right now!

	20161127.content	![Translation status](https://translations.scummvm.org/widgets/scummvm/-/287x66-white.png) Until now, translating the ScummVM software was not straightforward. Contributors had to get the translations template file to their computer, update the translation using a dedicated application, and then propose the updated translation to the ScummVM team using a [Pull Request](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-pull-request/) or [our bug tracker](https://bugs.scummvm.org/). The ScummVM team itself also had some manual tasks to perform, such as updating the translation templates from the source code when needed or rebuilding the binary translation file after receiving a translator's contribution. All this belongs to the past. Now, thanks to our new [translations website](https://translations.scummvm.org/), powered by [Weblate](https://weblate.org/), updating the translations is easier and more comfortable than ever before. Translation templates are updated automatically when needed, and so is the binary translation data file. Translators now just have to translate. That's it. The website also helps translators by performing automated quality checks and suggesting (machine) translations. Finally, the new site also adds a community aspect to translations, enabling users to vote for suggested translations and even make their own suggestions. Anybody can view the translations, but you will need to log in to make suggestions, comment, and vote. You can log in using your GitHub or Facebook account, or by creating an account on the website. You will still need to contact us if you want to contribute further (for example to start a new translation or help on an existing one), as we will need to grant you access to the Translators group. Unlike regular users, translators can accept or reject suggestions and modify translations directly. Contact us by visiting the #scummvm IRC channel on irc.freenode.net or by sending an email to [translation@scummvm.org](mailto:translation@scummvm.org) if you are interested in becoming an official translator. Otherwise, head over to [https://translations.scummvm.org/](https://translations.scummvm.org/) now, and help us make ScummVM accessible to everyone.

	20161201.content	The Dude... the Pipe... the Dark-Burrow-Dweller... and you. After several years of development, the ScummVM Team is pleased to announce full support for the obscure, fancy, and engaging adventure game The Full Pipe (Полная Труба in Russian). Grab your Game CD (Android and iOS versions are not supported), the [daily build](/downloads/#daily), and help us test Dude's adventures in the world of Small Fries. The game is not available in English, but doesn't have any text other than in the menus. Thus if you don't have the game already you can buy the German version published by [Daedalic Entertainment](http://www.daedalic.de/de/Game/Full_Pipe). Before you start your test run, we encourage you to read through our [testing guidelines](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing), and please take some [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) along the way. Now, go! The Dude just has fallen into the deep full pipe.

	20170306.content	![GSoC Logo](/data/news/GSoC2017Logo.png) This year, Google announced the largest Summer of Code ever, with 201 accepted organizations. We are very pleased to announce we are participating this year again, together with our sister project ResidualVM. Are you a motivated student? Do you want to participate in the largest Google Summer of Code ever? Do you want to be known as a contributor to one of the largest game preservation projects? Then ScummVM and ResidualVM are waiting for you! Have a look at [our ideas page](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Summer_of_Code/GSoC_Ideas_2017) or bring your own idea! In any case, don't hesitate to chat with us on IRC! One place: Freenode. Two channels: #scummvm and #residualvm
	20170306.title	Welcome to the largest Summer of Code ever
	20170401.content	We are very proud to announce that Retro-Junk has been working on ScummVM support for one of the most important games of Video Game History: Plumbers Don't Wear Ties! Over the past few years, we've had a constant stream of requests asking us to investigate support for this genre-defining masterpiece. It changed the gaming industry forever, by introducing (among many other innovations) an awesome negative-filtered intro (with karting pandas), FMP as a genre game (Full Motion Pictures), and even to this day remains the only game which uses 42nd degree humour. The engine reflects the astonishing complexity of the game, with 500 lines of code - at the time of writing, it would be one of the largest engine (62nd largest to be precise) in our tree. As you can imagine, it will take us some time to review and get it merged. However, you can already grab the source code from [this pull request on GitHub](https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/pull/932), build a copy and play it (only PC version supported currently). And remember, we are always interested in new screenshots! We'd also like you to join us and give a very special thank you to two of our developers, uruk-hai and t0by. They've continued to relentlessly push for support of this game, keeping everyone motivated. This work may not have been possible without them! Before you start your test run, we encourage you to read through our [testing guidelines](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing), and please take some [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) along the way. Now, go! Grab your copy of the game and the code, and enjoy this historical moment! Update: If you thought it was an April Fool's Day joke, you have been trolled. The Pull Request on GitHub is genuine, and ScummVM will really support Plumbers Don't Wear Ties if it gets merged.
	20170401.title	Take off your tie and become a plumber!
	20170401a.content	Update: we were unable to reserve the plumbervm.org domain and thus, with a heavy heart, we decided to abandon our rebranding effort and go back to our old name. Long live ScummVM! The issue of the name of ScummVM has been raised many times since we started to add engines for non-SCUMM games. Until now we decided to keep the original name. However, the addition today of an engine for Plumbers Don't Wear Ties changes everything. Due to its fame and reputation for being one of the best video game ever, it naturaly becomes the flagship of what we stand for. Thus we have finally decided to change our name. We are now PlumberVM! We used the name ScummVM for over 15 years, and this is with sadness that we say goodbye to it. It is a well known name and we do not underestimate the effort it will take to get the same recognition for our new name. Thus we are calling on your help to spread the news. In the short term this will inevitably lead to some disruption and confusion. But in the long term we are convinced that this is the right decision. With your support we will conquer the world! Starting from the sewers. With the change of name we have also decided to expand even more the scope of our project. Last year we decided to accept engines for RPG games in addition to adventure games. Now we are also accepting any games that feature a plumber. Work has already started on the little known Super Mario Bros., and we have big plans for the future. We will have a big announcement soon, so stay tuned. On a final note, it will take time for us to update all the places where our name appears. We have started today with our main website and you will notice in the next few days the change spreading to our social media accounts, wiki, forum and the pages not yet updated on our web site. We are also working on releasing PlumberVM 2.0 with the addition of two new supported games: Plumbers Don't Wear Ties and Full Pipe. This will happen as soon as the last few bugs in our engines for Plumbers Don't Wear Ties and Full Pipe have been squashed. Hopefully we won't find mutant turtles during testing. Squashing those is a real pain!

	20170428.content	Explore a haunted museum, hunt a serial killer, mop the floor, descend into madness, find your true love, find your “true love”, travel to lands below, solve the Voodoo Murders, rediscover a lost opera—or do it all! The first batch of 32-bit DOS/Windows Sierra adventures are now ready to be tested in the latest [daily build](/downloads/#daily) of ScummVM: * [Gabriel Knight](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Gabriel_Knight) * [Gabriel Knight 2](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/The_Beast_Within) * [King's Quest VII](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/King%27s_Quest_VII) * [King's Questions](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/King%27s_Questions) * [Leisure Suit Larry 6 (hi-res)](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Leisure_Suit_Larry_6) * [Phantasmagoria](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Phantasmagoria) * [Police Quest 4](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Police_Quest_IV) * [Shivers](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Shivers) * [Space Quest 6](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Space_Quest_6) * [Torin's Passage](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Torin%27s_Passage) The [Datafiles page](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Datafiles#All_SCI32_.28SCI2.2F3.29_games) has been updated with instructions on how to install these games. If you don’t own some, go to our [where to get the games](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Where_to_get_the_games#Sierra_Games) page to buy them! Before you start your test run, please read the instructions on our [SCI testing page](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/SCI/Testing), and take some [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) along the way. (If you have been itching to play some of the earlier SCI games, please take this time to run through them again too, as changes to the engine may also affect some 16-bit SCI games!) Have fun!

	20170505.content	![GSoC Logo](/data/news/GSoC2017Logo.png) Today Google announced the accepted projects for this year's Summer of Code. We are pleased to say that ScummVM will be mentoring two wizard students who will have one mission: casting the Super Sludge Nova spell. Effects include adding support for two new engines, and the cooldown period is 12 weeks: * Joseph-Eugene Winzer (a.k.a. Joefish) will be working on adding support for the *[Mission Supernova](http://outpost.simplicity.de)* game. * Simei Yin will work on porting the *[Sludge engine](https://opensludge.github.io)* to ScummVM. We extend a warm welcome to our students for what we hope will be a productive and interesting summer! You can follow their progress throughout the summer on the [ScummVM Blogs](http://planet.scummvm.org).
	20170505.title	GSoC 2017 projects announced!
	20170617.content	Last year, we added support for three of Sierra's Hi-Res Adventure games: Mystery House (#1), Mission: Asteroid (#0) and Wizard and the Princess (#2). We're proud to announce that three more Apple II games are now playable in ScummVM and ready for testing: Ulysses and the Golden Fleece (#4), Time Zone (#5) and The Dark Crystal (#6). For Ulysses and the Golden Fleece, we currently support the Load 'N' Go budget release. For Time Zone and The Dark Crystal we support the disk images that can be found on some of the [Sierra collection CDs](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/SCI/Game_Collections). The [Datafiles wiki page](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Datafiles) has been updated with the required filenames for the disk images. If you own one of those classics, grab the latest [daily build](/downloads/#daily) and try it out! If you encounter an issue, please post a bug report following our [testing guidelines](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing). And while you're at it, please take some [screenshots!](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) You may be wondering what happened to Hi-Res Adventure #3: Cranston Manor. Unfortunately, we still have not been able to locate a copy of this game after looking for it for over a year. If you own it, we'd love to [hear from you](/contact/)!
