I am using haXe 1.15 - so aim for at least that version. > I recall that there was another project trying to bring ScummVM to the web by > porting it to Java.

Safe to say, my project is real and more or less works as a proof of concept. Though it doesn't run BASS or GOB games. But i'm being a bit more realistic by just supporting SCUMM6. Making a SCUMM interpreter in Java wouldn't be that difficult. In fact, i'd go so far to say that it would be easier to get everything working in it (compared to haXe), as it actually has proper integer types. Failing that if someone got haXe to output Java bytecode (or at least just Java source), essentially hitting two birds with one stone. Which reminds me, i still haven't managed to get the image decode routines working properly. When i have time, i'm contemplating plonking loads of printf statements in the scummc implementation then comparing them with equivalent printout from my haXe code. Maybe then i'll get to the bottom of it. I reckon that the solution will likely be a ridiculously simple one.
