20111003.title	Prepare ship for ludicrous testing speed!
20111003.content	Fasten your seatbelts because another ScummVM release is just around the corner! However, we need your help first in testing out a few games before we can release. In addition to the two new games for this release, Lands of Lore: The Throne of Chaos and Ringworld: Revenge of the Patriarch, we have a few other games that need testing. Please take a look at [our wiki page](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.4.0) to see which games need a playthrough. As with all release testing, you'll need a [daily build](/downloads/#daily) to get started. If you happen to find any bugs, please report them on the [bug tracker](http://bugs.scummvm.org/). Once you complete one of the games, please let us know on [the forums](http://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?t=10901) so we can throw the results up on the [wiki page](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.4.0). Further information can be found in the [release testing guidelines](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing). And Strangerke would like to remind you to grab a couple of screenshots of Lands of Lore: The Throne of Chaos and Ringworld: Revenge of the Patriarch for us and submit them according to our [guidelines](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots).
20111106.title	GSoC 2011 — Results
20111106.content	![GSoC 2011 Logo](/data/news/20110318.jpg) This year, two students were accepted for ScummVM: * Jussi Pitkanen (Tiqpit) * [Engin Manap](http://enginmanap.blogspot.com/) (Enginmanap). Tiqpit worked on improving the AGI Engine. Sadly, he decided to quit before the end of his tasks, but his code was of such good quality that it is now merged into master, so ScummVM benefits from his work. Enginmanap worked on objectifying the CruisE engine. He did a great job, and his work is currently being polished before a final merge into master. We were also represented at the mentor summit by sev and Strangerke. We are really grateful to Google for all of their support, and are already working on GSoC 2012 tasks.
20111111.title	ScummVM 1.4.0 "10th Anniversary" Released!	¡ScummVM 1.4.0 «Décimo aniversario» publicado!
20111111.content	It has been over 10 years. We are here thanks to the work of 131 developers. 49,124 commits were made just to the ScummVM tree and those turned into a massive 1,085,714 lines of code (excluding comments) and of course over 7.6 million downloads from the main site alone. I would say those were a great ten years. The outcome is ScummVM 1.4.0 which we are releasing today, 11/11/11 11:11:11.11. More games are supported: Lands of Lore: The Throne of Chaos(based on the same engine as Kyrandia), the kids' game Blue's Birthday Adventure, and the science fiction game Ringworld: Revenge of the Patriarch. On top of that, practically all supported Sierra SCI games now have their Amiga versions working. Our musically inclined users will notice PC speaker support in Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge and Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, CMS support in Loom, The Secret of Monkey Island and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, fixed MIDI in the DOS versions of the Elvira series, and even sound in Winnie the Pooh in the Hundred Acre Wood! As always, there are many more new features; you can find the full list in [our release notes](https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/scummvm/1.4.0/ReleaseNotes) and the release itself on our [downloads page](/downloads/). Enjoy!

20111121.content	The developers of ScummVM are pleased to announce that as of today, the classic game Beneath A Steel Sky has full support for [James Woodcock's Music Enhancement Project](http://www.jameswoodcock.co.uk/?page_id=54) within the latest daily build. The project started way back in January 2006 as [James Woodcock](http://www.jameswoodcock.co.uk/) committed himself to use the original MIDI files from various Point and Click Adventure titles, creating enhanced versions using modern MIDI equipment. He has already released the [Simon the Sorcerer](http://www.jameswoodcock.co.uk/?p=956), [Discworld](http://www.jameswoodcock.co.uk/?p=1958) and [Inherit the Earth](http://www.jameswoodcock.co.uk/?p=1935) versions and can now add [Beneath A Steel Sky](http://www.jameswoodcock.co.uk/?p=7695) to his completion list: "I have tried very hard to remain faithful to the originals in respect to the excellent composers creations..." says James Woodcock, creator of the ScummVM Music Enhancement Project. He continues "...There has been a lot of support and interest from Beneath A Steel Sky fans, who have been monitoring its progress very carefully and it is with great pleasure I can finally play Beneath A Steel Sky using new versions of the original soundtrack with many thanks to the developers of ScummVM for all their hard work in making this feature possible". James uses the Yamaha Tyros4 keyboard hooked up to his computer via USB and after going through various tweaking, recording and editing, a finalised music track is born. You can download the enhanced soundtrack from James' [Beneath A Steel Sky](http://www.jameswoodcock.co.uk/?p=7695) page, where instructions are also included.

20120401.title	Cedricifying ScummVM
20120401.content	Happy April Fools' Day! Thanks to DrMcCoy, LordHoto, and Strangerke for their help. Cedric is one of the most famous characters in Sierra history. However, he has divided the fanbase into those who find him slightly irksome and those that adore him. We have therefore come up with a modification for ScummVM that optionally removes Cedric from King's Quest V. In addition to being able to remove Cedric from King's Quest V, we have also worked on a mode for all other ScummVM games to insert Cedric into them. Cedric integrates directly into those games and can interact with the game as well as the player. A set of screenshots of this mode (and of King's Quest V) can be found at the end of this news post. Some of the other developers have also chimed in with their opinion on the subject. ScummVM PR officer Strangerke said, "ScummVM has always been about improving the quality of these games and now we finally have the opportunity to bring one of Sierra's most beloved characters to all the other games we support." "It really adds to these Coktel Vision games," stated ScummVM Gob developer DrMcCoy, "they're actually playable now." "I can't imagine playing these games any other way now; there's no going back," added clone2727.

20120401b.title	ScummVM .NET
20120401b.content	Happy April Fools' Day! Thanks to ST for providing a screenshot of one of his Groovie C# tools. No, we're not moving to a new website. I'm proud to announce the new ScummVM rewrite in C# for Windows Phone 7 and Xbox 360 ports. This does not include any of the previous "ScummVM-XNA" code and is all new code based on our current working tree. The Windows Phone 7 port has been the main target of our work as I'm more familiar with the touchscreen controls. It shouldn't be much more work for the Xbox 360 port since I'm going through the XNA Game Studio. Since going through each engine is very tedious work, I've only worked on the engine I'm most familiar with: Groovie. And, I think the [results speak for themselves](/data/news/20120401_6.jpg). I'll have the source code up on GitHub soon, but here's [a brief snippet](/data/news/20120401_7.png) of some working converted C# code.
20120424.title	In the Summertime
20120424.content	![GSoC 2012 Logo](/data/news/GSOC_12_logo.png) Almost six weeks ago, we announced you that ScummVM has been accepted by Google for its Google Summer of Code 2012. Since then, we received many good applications and we asked a lot of efforts to the students to clarify and enhance theirs. We'd like to thank them all for all these efforts! Yesterday, Google announced the list of accepted students and tasks per project and it's with great joy that we announce you that this year, 4 students will be working on ScummVM tasks: * Jakimushka will work on a new testing framework based on an event recorder/player * Singron will turn scalers into plugins and will add some new ones * Somaen will integrate the Wintermute Lite engine and will add some currently missing functionalities * Upthorn will work on a new save anywhere feature, per engine, particularly useful for mobile devices We'd like to welcome them warmly and to wish them the best! And of course, last but not least, we'd like to thank Google for giving us the possibility, once more, to work with talented students during summer time.

20120328.title	ScummVM Podcast Released, Hosted by James Woodcock
20120401.content	Happy April Fools' Day! Thanks to DrMcCoy, LordHoto, and Strangerke for their help. Cedric is one of the most famous characters in Sierra history. However, he has divided the fanbase into those who find him slightly irksome and those that adore him. We have therefore come up with a modification for ScummVM that optionally removes Cedric from King's Quest V. In addition to being able to remove Cedric from King's Quest V, we have also worked on a mode for all other ScummVM games to insert Cedric into them. Cedric integrates directly into those games and can interact with the game as well as the player. A set of screenshots of this mode (and of King's Quest V) can be found at the end of this news post. Some of the other developers have also chimed in with their opinion on the subject. ScummVM PR officer Strangerke said, "ScummVM has always been about improving the quality of these games and now we finally have the opportunity to bring one of Sierra's most beloved characters to all the other games we support." "It really adds to these Coktel Vision games," stated ScummVM Gob developer DrMcCoy, "they're actually playable now." "I can't imagine playing these games any other way now; there's no going back," added clone2727.

20120401.title	Cedricifying ScummVM
20120401b.content	Happy April Fools' Day! Thanks to ST for providing a screenshot of one of his Groovie C# tools. No, we're not moving to a new website. I'm proud to announce the new ScummVM rewrite in C# for Windows Phone 7 and Xbox 360 ports. This does not include any of the previous "ScummVM-XNA" code and is all new code based on our current working tree. The Windows Phone 7 port has been the main target of our work as I'm more familiar with the touchscreen controls. It shouldn't be much more work for the Xbox 360 port since I'm going through the XNA Game Studio. Since going through each engine is very tedious work, I've only worked on the engine I'm most familiar with: Groovie. And, I think the [results speak for themselves](/data/news/20120401_6.jpg). I'll have the source code up on GitHub soon, but here's [a brief snippet](/data/news/20120401_7.png) of some working converted C# code.

20120424.content	![GSoC 2012 Logo](/data/news/GSOC_12_logo.png) Almost six weeks ago, we announced you that ScummVM has been accepted by Google for its Google Summer of Code 2012. Since then, we received many good applications and we asked a lot of efforts to the students to clarify and enhance theirs. We'd like to thank them all for all these efforts! Yesterday, Google announced the list of accepted students and tasks per project and it's with great joy that we announce you that this year, 4 students will be working on ScummVM tasks: * Jakimushka will work on a new testing framework based on an event recorder/player * Singron will turn scalers into plugins and will add some new ones * Somaen will integrate the Wintermute Lite engine and will add some currently missing functionalities * Upthorn will work on a new save anywhere feature, per engine, particularly useful for mobile devices We'd like to welcome them warmly and to wish them the best! And of course, last but not least, we'd like to thank Google for giving us the possibility, once more, to work with talented students during summer time.
