SCUMMVM(6) Games Manual SCUMMVM(6) NAME scummvm -- adventure and role-playing game interpreter SYNOPSIS scummvm [OPTIONS] [GAME] DESCRIPTION scummvm is an interpreter that will play numerous adventure and role-play- ing games based on a variety of game engines. GAME is a short name of game to load. This can be either a built-in gameid (as given by --list-games), or a user-configured target (as given by --list-targets). OPTIONS The meaning of most long options (that is, those options starting with a double-dash) can be inverted by prefixing them with no-. For example, --no-aspect-ratio will turn aspect ratio correction off. This is useful if you want to override a setting in the configuration file. -a | --add Add all games from current or specified (with --path=PATH) direc- tory. If --game=ID is passed, only the game with id ID is added. See also --detect. -b | --boot-param=NUM Pass number NUM to the boot script, for games supporting this fea- ture. -c | --config=CONFIG Use alternate configuration file path. -d | --debuglevel[=NUM] Enable and set debug verbosity level (default: 0). -e | --music-driver=MODE Select music driver: adlib Internal AdLib emulation. alsa Output using ALSA sequencer device. core CoreAudio sound (macOS). coremidi CoreMIDI sound (macOS). fluidsynth FluidSynth MIDI emulation. mt32 Internal MT-32 emulation. null Null output. Don't play any music. pcjr Internal PCjr emulation. pcspk Internal PC Speaker emulation. seq Use /dev/sequencer for MIDI (some Unix systems). sndio Use sndio MIDI. timidity Connect to TiMidity++ MIDI server. towns Internal FM-TOWNS YM2612 emulation (only usable in SCUMM FM-TOWNS games). Use only if you have a hardware MIDI synthesizer. windows Windows built-in MIDI sequencer (Windows). -F | --no-fullscreen Force windowed mode. -f | --fullscreen Force full-screen mode. -g | --gfx-mode=MODE Select graphics mode (opengl, surfacesdl). -h | --help Display a brief help text, and exit. -i | --initial-cfg=CONFIG Load an initial configuration file if no configuration file has been saved yet. -l | --logfile=PATH Use alternate path for log file. -m | --music-volume=NUM Set the music volume, 0-255 (default: 192). -n | --[no-]subtitles Enable subtitles (for games that have voice). -p | --path=PATH Set the path to where the game is installed. -q | --language=LANG Select game's language: ar Arabic (Modern Standard) eu Basque bg Bulgarian ca Catalan zh Chinese (Generic) cn Chinese (Simplified) tw Chinese (Traditional) hr Croatian cs Czech da Danish nl Dutch en English (Generic, default) gb English (Great Britain) us English (US) et Estonian fi Finnish be Flemish fr French fr-ca French (Canada) de German el Greek he Hebrew hu Hungarian it Italian ja Japanese ko Korean lv Latvian lt Lithuanian nb Norwegian (Bokmal) fa Persian pl Polish br Portuguese (Brazil) pt Portuguese (Portugal) ru Russian sr Serbian sk Slovak es Spanish sv Swedish tr Turkish uk Ukrainian -r | --speech-volume=NUM Set the voice volume, 0-255 (default: 192). -s | --sfx-volume=NUM Set the SFX volume, 0-255 (default: 192). -t | --list-targets Display list of user-configured game targets, and exit. -u | --dump-scripts Enable script dumping if a directory called dumps exists in the current directory. -v | --version Display ScummVM version information, and exit. -x | --save-slot[=SLOT] Set the saved game slot to load (default: 0 = autosave). -z | --list-games Display list of supported games, and exit. --[no-]alt-intro Toggle alternative intro for CD versions of Beneath a Steel Sky and Flight of the Amazon Queen (default: disabled). --[no-]aspect-ratio Toggle aspect ratio correction. --auto-detect Display a list of games from current or specified directory, and start the first one. Use --path=PATH to specify a directory. --cdrom=DRIVE Set the drive to play CD audio from; can either be a drive, path, or numeric index (default: 0 = best choice drive). --[no-]copy-protection Enable copy protection in games, when ScummVM disables it by de- fault. --[no-]dirtyrects Toggle dirty rectangles optimisation in software renderer (default: enabled). --debug-channels-only Show only the specified debug channels. --debugflags=FLAGS Enable engine specific debug flags (separated by commas). --[no-]demo-mode Toggle demo mode of Maniac Mansion or The 7th Guest (default: dis- abled). --detect Display a list of games with their ID from current or specified di- rectory without adding it to the configuration file. Use --path=PATH to specify a directory. --dump-midi Dump MIDI events to dump.mid (overwriting it), until quitting from game. --enable-gs Enable patch mappings to emulate an MT-32 on a Roland GS device for MIDI playback. --engine=ID In combination with --list-games, --list-all-games, --list-targets, or --stats, only list games for this engine. Multiple engines can be listed separated by a coma. --engine-speed=NUM Set frame per second limit (0-100) for 3D games, 0 = no limit (de- fault: 60). --[no-]exit In combination with commands that exit after running, like --add or --list-engines, toggle opening the launcher instead of exiting. --extrapath=PATH Set the extra path to additional game and ScummVM data. --[no-]filtering Force filtered/unfiltered graphics mode. Filtered graphics mode uses bilinear interpolation while unfiltered graphics mode uses nearest neighbor. --game=ID In combination with --add or --detect, only add or attempt to de- tect the game with id ID. --gui-theme=THEME Select a GUI theme, as given by --list-themes. --joystick[=NUM] Enable joystick input (default: 0 = first joystick). --iconspath=PATH Set the path to additional icons for the launcher grid view. --list-all-debugflags Display list of all engine debugflags, and exit. --list-all-engines Display list of all detection engines, and exit. --list-all-games Display list of all detected games, and exit. --list-audio-devices List all available audio devices, and exit. --list-debugflags[=ENGINE] Display list of engine specified debugflags, and exit. If the ENGINE argument is "global", or if it is not specified, list global debugflags. --list-engines Display list of supported engines, and exit. --list-saves Display a list of saved games for the target specified with --game=TARGET, or all targets if none is specified, and exit. --list-themes Display list of all usable GUI themes, and exit. --md5 Show MD5 hash of the file given by --md5-path=PATH. If --md5-length=NUM is passed, then show the MD5 hash of the first (if positive) or last (if negative) NUM bytes of the file given by PATH. If --md5-engine=ENGINE_ID is passed, fetch the MD5 length automatically, overriding --md5-length. --md5mac Like --md5, but for old Macintosh files. Show MD5 hash for both the resource fork and data fork of the file. --midi-gain=NUM Set the gain for MIDI playback, 0-1000 (default: 100). Only sup- ported by some MIDI drivers. --multi-midi Enable combination of AdLib and native MIDI. --native-mt32 Tell ScummVM that the MIDI device is an actual Roland MT-32 or com- patible device.
