If you want to configure bitrate and quality settings manually, check the advanced options checkbox, and you can change this at the next page.Īfter this, the tool will run. Next page asks audio for audio format to use, in most cases you can leave this at the default setting. Instead it affects the default audio settings to be optimized for the platform selected, as support for some are very poor on certain platform (and will make ScummVM run very slow). Note that this does not make the output files incompatible with other platforms. This is the platform that you are running ScummVM on, not the platform you are running the tools on. Next, you will be asked for target platform. Since ScummVM usually expects a specific filename for compressed archives, you should not change the default after extraction completes. Extraction tools usually generate a large amount of output files, while compression tools generate a single archive. Now select the output directory, note that the directory must exist. In this case, the correct tool (compress_queen) was automatically detected. In most cases, the tool to be used will be automatically detected, if there are multiple options, you must manually select the correct tool to be used, this is usually obvious from the name of the tool, if you are unsure, check the list of tools below. For example you can run compress_scumm_san on all the SAN file of a game. By selecting Run on all files with the same extension you can automatically run the tool on all the files with the same extension and present in the same directory as the selected input file. Sometime a tool is applied on a single file, but the game may contain many such file. For games that ship on multiple disks, select the first disk on this page, you will be asked for the second disk on the next page.

For some games this is obvious as there only is a single data file.

You can look in the list below for the expected extension or filename, if you don't know it already. Next select the input file, depending on the tool you are using, this file to be selected differs greatly. If you are compressing Touche data files, you need to select advanced mode and then compress_touche, as the tools do not support selecting the touche directory automatically. Most common usage is to compress files, to do that, simply click Next as compression is the default activity.

The recommended way to use the tools are using the tool GUI, run the program tool program.
