What is Residual? ----------------- Residual is a ScummVM (http://www.scummvm.org/) sub-project to play LucasArts' LUA-based 3D adventures, such as Grim Fandango. Residual is an OpenGL program, and requires a 3D card with working OpenGL support. |

Residual is a LUA-powered 3D GRIME clone, designed to run the game Grim Fandango. Why 'Residual'? Because this engine covers games that the main ScummVM application will not support due to their 3D nature. Also, GRIME is a residue. Yes, we know, it's a bad word pun. Residual's core is in a fairly decent state, however it is not in full-time development and as such is progressing slowly. Also, a software renderer needs to be written as older OpenGL cards cannot blit the static depth-buffer used by Grim Fandango without causing major framerate impact. |
