#5701 TOOLS: compress_sci skips last resource?
The location is
scummvm-tools/engines/sci/compress_sci.cpp
CompressSci::execute()
The do-while loop counting the number of resources in the file
resourceCount is incremented after the end-of-file check
On the last resource, the loop is exited without incrementing resourceCount.
This appears to me to mean the last resource is skipped, and not added to the compressed file.
Unfortunately I can't test this as I only have one game with files this code recognizes (KQ6) and I already deleted the original RESOURCE.AUD and RESOURCE.SFX files after compressing them and confirming they appeared to work.
Actually I could test this by looking at the number of entries for RESOURCE.AUD or RESOURCE.SFX in the RESOURCE.MAP and comparing it to the translation table at the beginning of each file, but I don't know the format of that MAP so maybe tomorrow.
You're absolutely right. Thanks; well spotted!
(The text in my copy of KQ6 that's skipped by this is: "Alexander watches helplessly as the guards descend upon him.")
