Trying to compile and run ScummVM

[TazDevil76]

I got it running on my iPAQ. But without any sound...but that's not to important. Anyway I get a first chance exception as soon as ScummVM starts - but then the engine runs without any problems...weird...

Now I'm going to search the place in the code where graphics are loaded to adjust gamma/brightness directly after they have been loaded. This seems more effiecient to me than manipulating them each time they are drawn.

yeah sure. But the biggest fun was tracking down all EVC bugs

I just tried something...I added this function to palette.cpp:

byte ScummEngine::adjustBrightness(byte data, float factor)
{
int newValue = data*factor;
return newValue > 255 ? 255 : (byte)newValue;
}

And then I changed the else-part of ScummEnginge::updatePalette():

...
} else {
*p++ = adjustBrightness(data[0], 1.5f);
*p++ = adjustBrightness(data[1], 1.5f);
*p++ = adjustBrightness(data[2], 1.5f);
*p++ = 0;
}
...

The factor 1.5 gives very good results on my 3870 - I can play DOTT without guessing where to click. I think this feature should really be included and able to be adjusted in the options menu.
I would do it myself for "my own" PocketScummVM version but I'm still havin loads of problems when running my compiled version: no sound, tons of exceptions and linker errors...still hoping for a ZIP of a eVC4 workspace and all needed files.

Regards,
