[Catalyst455931]

Awesome Tutorial Worked Like a Charm

[mspeter97]

I have multiple ScummVM ds rom and I'm running on the WoodR4 shell and it won't boot!

HELP!

[jeyko666]

I love you.

[MrTvshowclips]

wow would this work with grim fandango?

[Sheepy007]

@MrTvshowclips no

[edallinxtrm]

Do you know where i could get the CD version of monkey island? ebay AND amazon only have floppy disk version and my OLD, OLD, OLD win95 machine doesn't have USB ports.

[edallinxtrm]

Do you know where i could get the CD version of monkey island? ebay AND amazon only have floppy disk version and my OLD, OLD, OLD win95 machine doesn't have USB ports. Oh and i dont mean the special edition one, that won't work.

[daro1258]

How much does battery last using ScummVM?

[schlumbl84]

Thaks a lot! Your video inspired me to by my own R4 system and I followed your video step by step. It is real easy to run old piont & clicks on that thing and it's a lot of fun. So thank you for your great instructions.

[sirprintalot]

Does Broken Sword 1 + 2 work on the DS ScummVM?

[kidstompbugs]

' i like to think its magic ' - - - you are amazing hahha!

[kidstompbugs]

'i like to think it's magic'  - you are amazing haha

[EmulationExpert2009]

omfg! u rock

[RoyalNoodle]

Nice tutorial! One question about the video though. What is the name of the music you used at 5:35 ?

[WooBox]

It's the loading screen from Monkey Island 1.

[PunkRocker666Metal]

I wanna get Freddie Fish on it for my little brother (we both grew up on those classics) which one should i use for it ? (It´s made by Humongous entertainment`

[seitan]

Very good explanation!!!! Thanks a lot!!!

[GabriellaCVL]

Queste si chiamano spiegazioni!

(You have made a wonderful work! Thank you from Italy)

[simbaRahh]

amazing thanx dude works great getting stuck in nows

[applepiewithtoast]

Followed all the steps but in my Scumm folder on my DS all I have is N.OWN and it doesn't anything...

[stingersplash]

why arent the files just out there to download? surely they must be somewhere. i want to play monkey island, day of the tentacle and sam and max, but if i have to buy the cd then why bother to play on ds instead of pc?

[lukediddle]

...I'd like to see you take a desktop computer on a long train journey :P

[princeguypavlov]

Hey thanks dude! You helped me! Monkey island is now working perfectly on my acekard2! Thanks!

[Thewemoth]

ive solved the problem ;)

Ty nice tut :D

[UnisexPenguin]

This is fantastic, I hope I can get this to work :D Thanks!

[WooBox]

Let me know how you get on.

[Thewemoth]

Can you upload the monkey island folders on the web and then send me the link, i need the folders :(

I have lost my MI cd ;(

[WooBox]

Sorry, you'll have to get the CD from eBay or something - I no longer have mine.

[jeroen207]

Ms dos games?

[WooBox]

No idea, sorry.

[retroman51]

@jeroen207 Yes. That is the magic of SCUMMVM. You can run scumm games from any system, PC, MS-DOS, Mac, PSX, 3DO, list goes on and on and on.........

[RockAgainstAss69]

Just ordered everything I need for this, cant freakin wait. You sir are a genius!

[WooBox]

Excellent, glad you're well underway. Let me know how you get on.

[eatdeadbaby]

Great video. Even though I use CycloDS it's still helpful. I also like to think it works via magic.

[schlumbl84]

You are such a good man! THANKS A LOT for the video! It's really easy to follow and explains everything. BUT: 7 ZIP is also a very good progam - and for free. But it's still a nice video. I'll try it as soon as I get my cards ;)

[Kevitivity]

A free, open source alternative to BitZipper is 7z (Windows, Linux, Mac).

[Studders01]

Ok right can you explain why the writing doesn all fit on the screen. i dont know what im click when you get options list. :o( Please help

[0Oddysee0]

If you hold the L button you can move the bottom screen around with the D pad. Simply move it up a bit.

[Studders01]

Ok I tried this on my R4 III. It wouldnt open the folder once it was on my R4 card.

Please can you advise why?

[pwner414]

does it work with mac?

[Jonz84]

Thanks a lot! Although I didn't use this walkthrough for Monkey Island, I was able to figure out how to get The Dig on my m3 DS Real flashcart.

[DuelersKing]

Its a nice vid, i really wasnt watching it because i need it, but rather because im suffering from a bout of insomnia and am utterly bored.

The only critisism i have is that youve suggested BitZipper, winrar or 7zip are both free and install right click menus to windows allowing for easy extracting.

It is much less hastle then what bit zipper seems to be.

[Caeke]

I don't have a DS but this video was very helpful with setting up Monkey Island 1 and 2 on Windows Mobile 6.

Thorough and easy to follow.

Thanks!

[WooBox]

Excellent, that's great!

[kflze]

Hey guys! I do own the Lucas Arts CD collection and I want to play it on my DS. I don't know where to get this R4DS card - can I also use the NDSTT MODULE + 2GB MICRO SD CARD instead?

Thanks in advance.

[WooBox]

No idea I'm afraid. Try it and let us know. As I explain in the video you can get the R4DS from Amazon.

[kflze]

Thanks. Unfortunately not in Europe. :-/

It's worth trying.

[kflze]

Correction:

Found one! But not on Amazon.

Thanks for the tutorial :D

[imcrazy4321]

slow down on the talking

[KaitainCPS]

Pah! Learn how to distinguish English without an American accent, I say...

[WooBox]

Just pause it or watch it again if you can't keep up.

[Nogert]

wait let me make that clearer, can I do this with a free version of MI? I don't have my discs they are long gone lost in the attic somewhere.

[WooBox]

Sorry, don't know anything about the free version. Give it a try.

[Nogert]

Just wondering is it possiblt to put monkey island on with scumm thingy, (the free version)?

[Bankai95]

i managed to put a wookie on my ds thanks you you XD

cheers mate

[sabater87]

You are the best

[dazzybabe]

Some monkeys there...

EXCELLENT guide my friend! I've just purchased my girlfriend a DS Lite for Christmas. We all know that I'll be the primary user though ;)

[sharifi14]

Very clear and easy to understand. After reading the Drunken Coders attempt to explain, this is a God send. Thank you!

[WooBox]

Thanks... I'm glad you can now shit.

[wezley112]

it is a bill tut =p

[DonnieDarkcore]

Awesome! Thanx for your "how to play"! It worked perfect! Very good dicribtion. Cheers

[EKSTRASLIK]

why?

[klevin7]

Very well put together video I must say.

[Nogert]

15 quid just to play monkey island on your ds? can we do anything else with this stuff once we've bought it?

[natebooce]

well you can play both monkey island and monkey island 2, sam and max day of the tentacle, all the original sierra point and clickers + Indiana Jones and the fat of atlantis, not to mention you oculd download homebrew onto the card and play movies and download flipbook and a ds paint style program

[REALSLIK]

Good stuff man. 5/5. One question tho, does anyone know if this would work on the Super Card Ds One? Should i get r4 or the Super card?

[Roflcon]

Your my hero

[jansenkos]

GREAT video dude !

I've done everything you show in the video, but when I click the 'happy faces' icon my DS says 'cant find NDS or GBA card in S2', do you want to boot to NDS mode ? I click yes and the screen freezes gray ?

Any ideas ?

PLEASE help !

Thanks

[jansenkos]

[KreetaSan]

does this setup work for Mac?

[LiptonAddict]

Mine just says loading forever, I have the ds phat but r4ds says that shouldn't make a difference... could you help?

[BenjaminBlatently]

I must say, you have the perfect voice for video tutorials.

I'm gonna have to give this a try.

[animajay]

You are in every sense of the word - a LEGEND!

[vdtmanutd5145]

Holy crap! This was the guide i needed! I got Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis working flawlessly =D

[TetragrammatonCleric]

I love the background music you used. Specially the part when you were tapping you fingers. Brilliant! I still need to get on this as Monkey Island series was my favorite. Also like Grim Fandango which I didn't check if it was supported with Scummds.  Very nicely done tutorial. Thanks.

[primalconvoy]

This video took WAAAAAYYYYY TOOOOO LOOOONNNGGGG to load up! What the heck is wrong with youtube these days?

[BrensBitch]

I've had about three attempts at doing this now and I've come to realise I'm going wrong somewhere. I've downloaded all the necessary bits and used bitzipper to decompress them. But when I put the r4ds card in the ds it's just saying it's loading, I've waited 5 mins and still nothing more. Am I supposed to use the whole of the ScummVm and the kernel directories.

[MikesStudios]

Question: Monkey Island 3 Curse of Monkey island is in 2 discs what do you do about that?

[WooBox]

Hmmm, no idea, not tried - sorry!

[MikesStudios]

Why doesnt the postman deliver on sundays or bank holiday mondays =(

[MikesStudios]

Im suprised somone hasnt made these and sold them so people dont have to do all this business. But ive just ordered my parts waiting for the postman!

[WooBox]

You're right, would make life a lot easier. Let me know how you get on.

[GuitarDudeAdam]

does this work with a normal micro sd card?

[WooBox]

I'm not sure... what makes it normal? Give it a try.

WooBox

[alexmi6rider]

Wow!!!! I just got another chance to play Monkey Island 1 and 2 that too on my DS!! Thanks for everything you showed mate! :-)

[alexmi6rider]

just one last thing, i know it's been a while since this vid was posted but I go onto Amazon and a whole lot of them appear. the one i think is correct is "Nintendo DS Lite R4 Version 2 + 1GB Memory Card (Micro SD / Transflash)"; is this the right one? thanx!

[WooBox]

It certainly looks right, same box and design and everything. But some people on Amazon complain of being sold fake ones, so just check feedback for the seller.

I think so long as you go for a version 2 it will be fine.

[alexmi6rider]

cheers, nice one!

[alexmi6rider]

So you can carry these procedures out also to play games like Little Big Adventure 1, 2 and even Simon the Sorcerer 1 and 2 on the DS????!!

[WooBox]

Simon and the Sorcerer works, not sure about Little Big Adventure.

[henrydalton]

Brilliantly put together video, very helpful - you got it working perfectly for me! :)

(PS Might be worth mentioning that you have to do some extra bits and bobs to get music working on Monkey Island)

[WooBox]

I have another video which details how to add sound to Monkey Island 1.

[WooBox]

What exact point did you get to? It works, I did it, a few others did too. :)

[marthaellen]

Holy cow this is great you're the best how to guide maker that youtube has ever known, thanks for reading all that brain-melting stuff and you're sure right anyone can do this

[jimbobjimminy]

0.0 no Broken Sword?! noo thats gay!

[iPwnzorz]

This is a really great tutorial! Excellent. But you didn't do the Monkey Island 1 music! I needed that part, because my music is messed up. Hmm... maybe it's different on a Lite...

[WooBox]

If you're having problems with your sound on Monkey Island 1 (mainly lack of it) I can help you with that. I'll upload another video talking you through it.

[slacb]

It works!!! Nice one. You fight like a dairy farmer!

[obno6]

Wow great video, thanks so much.

I will be playing Broken Sword 1 and 2 for my whole holiday now! thanks again!

[iPwnzorz]

Nononononononono No.

Unfortunately, because of the DS RAM issues, Broken Sword will not run on it. Not even with the Memory Pak.

[kydencrow]

Thanks, this was really helpful!!
