Description
=========== 

SCI Disassembler allows you to disassemble scripts from games using 
Sierra's SCI game engine.


Use
===

In order to be able to disassemble the scripts, you will need to 
extract them from their packages. The packages are called resource.000-
resource.063. To extract resources from an EGA SCI game, you can either 
use SCI Studio or SCI Decoder EGA. To extract scripts from VGA SCI games, 
you will need to use SCI Decoder VGA. These programs can be obtained from 
http://www.agisci.cjb.net.

You will need to extract all the script files (SCRIPT.000-SCRIPT.999), 
text files (TEXT.000-TEXT.999), VOCAB.000 (for EGA games), VOCAB.996, 
VOCAB.997 and VOCAB.999. SCI Studio v2.0.5 and up include a feature to 
extract them all for you.

Once you have the files, select the directory which contains them. You 
may optionally select an output directory, otherwise, the same directory 
is used for input and output.

Make sure to select the correct version for your scripts. When running 
your game, press "left SHIFT"+"right SHIFT"+"numpad -" at the same time. 
It will tell you what SCI version the game is.

When ready, press the "Start Disassembly" button.

It will output the disassembled scripts as 000.SCA-999.SCA. It also 
converts vocab files into a readable form as VOCABxxx.TXT. The text 
files are not actually used by the disassembler, but you will need 
them as a reference when reading some parts of the scripts.


Have fun!
