We have been using SourceForge.net for many years. It was the very first home for our project, and it served us very well. However, we had to move on, and we were looking for a new home. Last year Florian Schicker, CEO of [easyname GmbH](http://easyname.com) approached us with the thrilling proposal to donate a server and host it in their Data Centre. And what makes it so special is that they are doing it "because they are veeeery big fans of the good old scumm games"! Go, look at [company teampage in that fancy scumm-feeling](http://www.easyname.com/en/company/team)! A really generous proposal and completely unexpected.

Thus, we are moving. First we moved our main website and downloads, and you probably already noticed the speed boost thanks to the new service. Also, we said goodbye to the advertisements during downloads, as they were provided by SourceForge.net. The only ads that will be associated with this project from now on are the ones we want to do by ourselves (and that, of course, includes easyname.com, look at their nice logo in the right pane). Eventually, we will move more services to the new server, and perhaps even extend it with something new.

So please join us in our joy of a new home!

	20160201.title	ScummVM Release 1.8.0 Testing is Starting
	20160201.content	After a very long break, we are finally starting preparations for our next release, ScummVM 1.8.0. The last one year and a half have been very busy, and we added 10 (ten, zehn, dieci, dix, diez, десять) new games: * Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender * Sfinx * Zork Nemesis: The Forbidden Lands * Zork: Grand Inquisitor * The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Serrated Scalpel * The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Rose Tattoo * Beavis and Butthead in Virtual Stupidity * Amazon: Guardians of Eden * Broken Sword 2.5: The Return of the Templars * Labyrinth of Time Also, we had a major rewrite of the AGI engine, so all AGI games should work better, but could also have new, unexpected bugs. Thus, we need your help with testing out these games, including AGI-based ones. For your convenience, we gathered together what requires testing on [our wiki](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.8.0). There are also a few other old classics on that list that could use another run through. You need to grab a [daily build](/downloads/#daily) of ScummVM and you may start helping right away! If you happen to find any bugs, please report them on our [bug tracker](http://bugs.scummvm.org/). After completing one of the games, please let us know on [the forums](http://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?t=14006) so we can mark your progress on the [wiki](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.8.0) and other players can concentrate on untested games. Please be sure to follow our guidelines for release testing, which can be found [here](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing). Also some of these games require [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots), which you can make along your gameplay. Happy adventuring (in a test mode)!
	20160301.title	Welcome to the new Summer of Code
	20160301.content	![GSoC 2016 Logo](/data/news/GSoC2016Logo.png) Yesterday, Google announced the list of accepted mentoring organizations and we have the great pleasure to be one of those. In previous years, we have primarily focused on adventure games. However, after discussing with our sister project ResidualVM, we are happy to announce that, this year, we will also be accepting RPG tasks. ScummVM and ResidualVM are now waiting for motivated students, willing to work during this summer on reviving adventure and role-playing games. Be part of it! Make History and join our best GSoC so far! Take a look at [our ideas page](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Summer_of_Code/GSoC_Ideas_2016) or bring your own idea, then contact us: we are waiting for you on IRC impatiently! One place: Freenode. Two channels: #scummvm and #residualvm
	20160304.title	ScummVM 1.8.0 "Lost with Sherlock" is finally there!
	20160304.content	No, we do not want to make it a new rule to release ScummVM slower and slower! It has been many months since the last official release... but in that time, tons of work has been done, resulting in one of our biggest ScummVM releases to date! ScummVM 1.8 adds support for ten new games using eight brand new game engines: * Amazon: Guardians of Eden * Beavis and Butthead in Virtual Stupidity * Broken Sword 2.5: The Return of the Templars * Labyrinth of Time * Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender * Sfinx * The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Rose Tattoo * The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Serrated Scalpel * Zork: Grand Inquisitor * Zork Nemesis: The Forbidden Lands In addition to new game support, we've updated the MT-32 emulator to the latest upstream version of munt, and switched AdLib to Miles Audio for those games which originally supported it. This means games in ScummVM sound better than ever! We've also overhauled the graphics subsystem in AGI, basically replacing it. As a result game compatibility with old Sierra titles is high as never before, and even includes platform-specific system dialogs, palette and font for Apple IIgs, Atari ST and Amiga versions of the games. Game speed for Apple IIgs is handled properly now. And it's even possible to switch to the looks of another platform. New ports include GCW-Zero (yes, sev finally got one from the Kickstarter) and Raspberry Pi. Also, along the way we have moved to a new server and added translation capabilities to our main website. If you'd like to help with translation, [here](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/HOWTO-Translate_ScummVM_Web_Site) is the link with the guide. This list is far from complete. The more comprehensive version of it can be found in [the release notes](https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/scummvm/1.8.0/ReleaseNotes) and the binaries for your platforms are available from our [downloads page](/downloads/). The porters are still building their packages, so please be patient if you do not see the up to date download for your platform yet. Don't get lost in the Labyrinth, and in the worst case call Mr. Holmes! (And we promise to release more often!)
	20160327.title	Explore the Myst library
	20160327.content	You stumble upon an old handwritten book. It describes an island world named Myst. When you touch one of its last pages, you are transported to the island. As you explore Myst you learn about its inhabitants Atrus, Catherine and their sons Sirrus and Achenar. You quickly discover each son is trapped in a book. Will you solve the puzzles of the Myst ages and free them? The ScummVM Team is proud to announce that Myst and Myst: Masterpiece Edition are now playable in ScummVM using the [latest daily builds](/downloads/#daily), and are ready for testing. Reports of bugs and unknown versions are appreciated. They should go to our [bug tracker](http://bugs.scummvm.org/), and must follow our [bug submission guidelines](/faq/#question.report-bugs). You can help us fill our [screenshot gallery](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) with captures from your playthrough. In addition to the main game, the making-of video and the [demo version](https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/demos/mohawk/myst-win-demo-en.zip) are supported.
	20160401.title	The ScummVM team welcomes John Carmack
	20160401.content	We are pleased to announce that John Carmack (yes, the John Carmack) will be joining the ScummVM and ResidualVM teams. We first met John at GDC 2016 and hit it off immediately. We had been feeling for a while now that we have to move beyond simply recreating old games and actively improving them, while staying true to their original spirit. We talked to John about our plan after a few tequilas and he was immediately on board. John's experience will be invaluable in helping us achieve our goal. Here is [screenshot](/data/news/20160401.jpg) of John's early work with Monkey Island - notice the improved combat system and the subtle tweaks to Captain Smirk's sprite, you'll see why we are so excited. So please join us in welcoming John! UPDATE: No, not really. This was a joke.
	20160425.title	The students are known for GSoC 2016!
	20160425.content	![GSoC 2016 Banner](/data/news/GSoC2016Logo.png) On Friday Google announced the accepted projects for this year's Summer of Code. We are pleased to say that ScummVM will be mentoring four lucky students who will have to spend their summer in a dark room in front of their screen. We expect this will be an interesting Journey, passing through shadowy gates to visit scary dungeons under dark clouds. All while the mentors will be hunting three-headed monkeys on a tropical island, enjoying the sun, the beach and the grog. * Borja Lorente Escobar (a.k.a. blorente) will be working on porting the *MacVenture engine* to ScummVM. * Bendegúz Nagy (a.k.a. WinterGrascph) will work on adding support for *Dungeon Master* * Dmitriy Iskrich (a.k.a. Iskrich) will be working on a *Macromedia Director* engine, with focus on *The Journeyman Project* * Ткачёв Александр (a.k.a. Tkachov) will be adding cloud storage integration to ScummVM to allow sharing saves and game data between devices. 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).

	20151206.title	Another Broken Sword by Fans for Fans
	20160119.content	We have been using SourceForge.net for many years. It was the very first home for our project, and it served us very well. However, we had to move on, and we were looking for a new home. Last year Florian Schicker, CEO of [easyname GmbH](http://easyname.com) approached us with the thrilling proposal to donate a server and host it in their Data Centre. And what makes it so special is that they are doing it "because they are veeeery big fans of the good old scumm games"! Go, look at [company teampage in that fancy scumm-feeling](http://www.easyname.com/en/company/team)! A really generous proposal and completely unexpected. Thus, we are moving. First we moved our main website and downloads, and you probably already noticed the speed boost thanks to the new service. Also, we said goodbye to the advertisements during downloads, as they were provided by SourceForge.net. The only ads that will be associated with this project from now on are the ones we want to do by ourselves (and that, of course, includes easyname.com, look at their nice logo in the right pane). Eventually, we will move more services to the new server, and perhaps even extend it with something new. So please join us in our joy of a new home!

	20160123.content	While aboard the subway, your train car is sucked into an alternate dimension, a labyrinth that spans the space-time continuum. Its creator, Daedalus, is forced to oversee its construction by the evil King Minos, who wants to use it to invade and conquer all times and places. Daedalus pleads for the player to find a way to destroy the labyrinth before Minos can complete his conquest. The ScummVM Team is proud to announce that Labyrinth of Time 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). Any [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) of your playthrough are as usual welcome. Many thanks to [The Wyrmkeep Entertainment Co.](http://www.wyrmkeep.com/) for sharing the game's original source code with us!

	20160201.content	After a very long break, we are finally starting preparations for our next release, ScummVM 1.8.0. The last one year and a half have been very busy, and we added 10 (ten, zehn, dieci, dix, diez, десять) new games: * Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender * Sfinx * Zork Nemesis: The Forbidden Lands * Zork: Grand Inquisitor * The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Serrated Scalpel * The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Rose Tattoo * Beavis and Butthead in Virtual Stupidity * Amazon: Guardians of Eden * Broken Sword 2.5: The Return of the Templars * Labyrinth of Time Also, we had a major rewrite of the AGI engine, so all AGI games should work better, but could also have new, unexpected bugs. Thus, we need your help with testing out these games, including AGI-based ones. For your convenience, we gathered together what requires testing on [our wiki](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.8.0). There are also a few other old classics on that list that could use another run through. You need to grab a [daily build](/downloads/#daily) of ScummVM and you may start helping right away! If you happen to find any bugs, please report them on our [bug tracker](http://bugs.scummvm.org/). After completing one of the games, please let us know on [the forums](http://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?t=14006) so we can mark your progress on the [wiki](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.8.0) and other players can concentrate on untested games. Please be sure to follow our guidelines for release testing, which can be found [here](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing). Also some of these games require [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots), which you can make along your gameplay. Happy adventuring (in a test mode)!
	20160201.title	ScummVM Release 1.8.0 Testing is Starting
	20160301.content	![GSoC 2016 Logo](/data/news/GSoC2016Logo.png) Yesterday, Google announced the list of accepted mentoring organizations and we have the great pleasure to be one of those. In previous years, we have primarily focused on adventure games. However, after discussing with our sister project ResidualVM, we are happy to announce that, this year, we will also be accepting RPG tasks. ScummVM and ResidualVM are now waiting for motivated students, willing to work during this summer on reviving adventure and role-playing games. Be part of it! Make History and join our best GSoC so far! Take a look at [our ideas page](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Summer_of_Code/GSoC_Ideas_2016) or bring your own idea, then contact us: we are waiting for you on IRC impatiently! One place: Freenode. Two channels: #scummvm and #residualvm
	20160301.title	Welcome to the new Summer of Code
	20160304.content	No, we do not want to make it a new rule to release ScummVM slower and slower! It has been many months since the last official release... but in that time, tons of work has been done, resulting in one of our biggest ScummVM releases to date! ScummVM 1.8 adds support for ten new games using eight brand new game engines: * Amazon: Guardians of Eden * Beavis and Butthead in Virtual Stupidity * Broken Sword 2.5: The Return of the Templars * Labyrinth of Time * Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender * Sfinx * The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Rose Tattoo * The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Serrated Scalpel * Zork: Grand Inquisitor * Zork Nemesis: The Forbidden Lands In addition to new game support, we've updated the MT-32 emulator to the latest upstream version of munt, and switched AdLib to Miles Audio for those games which originally supported it. This means games in ScummVM sound better than ever! We've also overhauled the graphics subsystem in AGI, basically replacing it. As a result game compatibility with old Sierra titles is high as never before, and even includes platform-specific system dialogs, palette and font for Apple IIgs, Atari ST and Amiga versions of the games. Game speed for Apple IIgs is handled properly now. And it's even possible to switch to the looks of another platform. New ports include GCW-Zero (yes, sev finally got one from the Kickstarter) and Raspberry Pi. Also, along the way we have moved to a new server and added translation capabilities to our main website. If you'd like to help with translation, [here](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/HOWTO-Translate_ScummVM_Web_Site) is the link with the guide. This list is far from complete. The more comprehensive version of it can be found in [the release notes](https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/scummvm/1.8.0/ReleaseNotes) and the binaries for your platforms are available from our [downloads page](/downloads/). The porters are still building their packages, so please be patient if you do not see the up to date download for your platform yet. Don't get lost in the Labyrinth, and in the worst case call Mr. Holmes! (And we promise to release more often!)
	20160304.title	ScummVM 1.8.0 "Lost with Sherlock" is finally there!
	20160327.content	You stumble upon an old handwritten book. It describes an island world named Myst. When you touch one of its last pages, you are transported to the island. As you explore Myst you learn about its inhabitants Atrus, Catherine and their sons Sirrus and Achenar. You quickly discover each son is trapped in a book. Will you solve the puzzles of the Myst ages and free them? The ScummVM Team is proud to announce that Myst and Myst: Masterpiece Edition are now playable in ScummVM using the [latest daily builds](/downloads/#daily), and are ready for testing. Reports of bugs and unknown versions are appreciated. They should go to our [bug tracker](http://bugs.scummvm.org/), and must follow our [bug submission guidelines](/faq/#question.report-bugs). You can help us fill our [screenshot gallery](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) with captures from your playthrough. In addition to the main game, the making-of video and the [demo version](https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/demos/mohawk/myst-win-demo-en.zip) are supported.
	20160327.title	Explore the Myst library
	20160401.content	We are pleased to announce that John Carmack (yes, the John Carmack) will be joining the ScummVM and ResidualVM teams. We first met John at GDC 2016 and hit it off immediately. We had been feeling for a while now that we have to move beyond simply recreating old games and actively improving them, while staying true to their original spirit. We talked to John about our plan after a few tequilas and he was immediately on board. John's experience will be invaluable in helping us achieve our goal. Here is [screenshot](/data/news/20160401.jpg) of John's early work with Monkey Island - notice the improved combat system and the subtle tweaks to Captain Smirk's sprite, you'll see why we are so excited. So please join us in welcoming John! UPDATE: No, not really. This was a joke.

	20160425.content	![GSoC 2016 Banner](/data/news/GSoC2016Logo.png) On Friday Google announced the accepted projects for this year's Summer of Code. We are pleased to say that ScummVM will be mentoring four lucky students who will have to spend their summer in a dark room in front of their screen. We expect this will be an interesting Journey, passing through shadowy gates to visit scary dungeons under dark clouds. All while the mentors will be hunting three-headed monkeys on a tropical island, enjoying the sun, the beach and the grog. * Borja Lorente Escobar (a.k.a. blorente) will be working on porting the *MacVenture engine* to ScummVM. * Bendegúz Nagy (a.k.a. WinterGrascph) will work on adding support for *Dungeon Master* * Dmitriy Iskrich (a.k.a. Iskrich) will be working on a *Macromedia Director* engine, with focus on *The Journeyman Project* * Ткачёв Александр (a.k.a. Tkachov) will be adding cloud storage integration to ScummVM to allow sharing saves and game data between devices. 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).
