ATTN All Programmers - Help improve Daphne (Dragon's Lair, Space Ace)

It looks like that would just add the -fastboot option to the command line, which I've tried manually and doesn't work.
Daphne simply ignores the "-fastboot" option for all but the original DL/SA roms. There's something somewhere else in the code that actually changes the rom's bootup process, I think.
I can read the source code with Visual 2010, but I have no idea how to compile - that's way beyond me.

Hmm... It might be best to add an instance of the new game everywhere possible then.
Check Line 187 of io/cmdline.cpp, and game/game.cpp and game/game.h as well as frontend/DaphneLoaderInfo.ini. I would duplicate every instance you can find of the game and change the name. Directions are in the source for compile. I can do this if you want, and could compile for unix and possibly test it. However, I have no easy way of compiling for winblows unless I pirate microsoft visual studio. I'll see what I can do when I have some free time.

You do not need to pirate, just google VS 2010 express. Its a free version, for stand alone projects it should work without problems.

Nice. I wasn't aware that there was a free version. :cheers:

That's the version I've been using to look at the source code.
But I understand almost nothing about source code, so.... :)
