Description
Cold Turkey's AGIdentify is an AGI version detector.
I took the ScummVM AGI games database in detection_tables.h and copied out all of the PC entries. I then formatted them into a much simpler CSV file (sierragi.txt). People can add new games to the file without changing the program's code!
The source code is in C# .NET 2.0 for compatibility. The class for detection can be used by any other code you have, and can return a struct instead of just printing to the console. This should be useful to those wanting to do detection from their programs.
Why?AGInfo is old, and there didn't seem to be anything else. I also wrote getVerA2 which decodes strings in AGI games looking for the version number (AGI 2 only at this time). The IDEa was "pure" in the sense that it doesn't require external data. What was unfortunate is that Sierra didn't use a standard for encoding version strings in their games, so the tool could miss something. It also couldn't find the date, since this was arbitrarily encoded into the game data, if it even existed at all.
