About:
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
REminiscence is a re-implementation of the engine used in the game Flashback
|
|
made by Delphine Software and released in 1992. More informations about the
|
|
game can be found at [1], [2] and [3].
|
|
|
|
|
|
Data Files:
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
You will need the original files of the PC (DOS or CD), Amiga or Macintosh
|
|
release. Support for Amiga and Macintosh is still experimental.
|
|
|
|
For the Macintosh release, the resource fork must dumped as a file named
|
|
'FLASHBACK.BIN' (MacBinary) or 'FLASHBACK.RSRC' (AppleDouble).
|
|
|
|
To hear music during polygonal cutscenes with the PC version, you need to copy
|
|
the music/ directory of the Amiga version or use the .mod fileset from
|
|
unexotica [4].
|
|
|
|
For speech with in-game dialogues, you need to copy the 'VOICE.VCE' file from
|
|
the SegaCD version to the DATA directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Running:
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
By default, the engine tries to load the game data files from the 'DATA'
|
|
directory, as the original game executable did. The savestates are saved in the
|
|
current directory.
|
|
|
|
These paths can be changed using command line switches :
|
|
|
|
Usage: rs [OPTIONS]...
|
|
--datapath=PATH Path to data files (default 'DATA')
|
|
--savepath=PATH Path to save files (default '.')
|
|
--levelnum=NUM Level to start from (default '0')
|
|
--fullscreen Fullscreen display
|
|
--widescreen=MODE 16:9 display
|
|
--scaler=NAME@X Graphics scaler (default 'scale@3')
|
|
--language=LANG Language (fr,en,de,sp,it,jp)
|
|
|
|
The scaler option specifies the algorithm used to smoothen the image in
|
|
addition to a scaling factor. External scalers are also supported, the suffix
|
|
shall be used as the name. Eg. If you have scaler_xbrz.dll, you can pass
|
|
'--scaler xbrz@2' to use that algorithm with a doubled window size (512x448).
|
|
|
|
The widescreen option accepts two modes :
|
|
'adjacent' : left and right rooms bitmaps will be drawn (default)
|
|
'mirror' : the current room bitmap will be drawn mirrored
|
|
