I can't seem to get monkey island 1 to work, what files do I need?
I have

Disk01.lec
Disk02.lec
Disk03.lec
Disk04.lec

I've tried renaming them to

Monkey.000
Monkey.001
Monkey.002
Monkey.003

and it tries to load but I get the message

Looking for monkey
Trying to start game 'Monkey Island 1'

and then it reboots :(
 
Those are the files you need:

000.LFL
901.LFL
902.LFL
903.LFL
DISK01.LEC
DISK02.LEC
DISK03.LEC
DISK04.LEC
 
When I try to save the game it says

Failed to save game state to file:
gp:/GPMM/MI/monkeyvga.s01

I understand that the reason is the long filename, so I tried changing the game id from monkeyvga to just monkey, but then the game doesn't load :(
How do I save my game?
 
Neomorpheus,

In the currently released gpScumm there is a bug (the Game ID is not truncated to 8 chars correctly).
You can fix this with a hex editor or drop me a PM and I’ll e-mail you a fixed FXE. It also applies to a few other games (MonkeyEGA etc.).

This is fixed in newer (not released) builds of gpScummVM. Unfortunately I have currently broken loads of other stuff ;) so it will be a while before I get around to releasing a wide beta.
