Ok, I've tired all methods of setting this emu up and i just cannot seem to get it to work. 
First, I tried following this guide 

Then this guide, 

Then this guide, 


I can't get any of these processes to work...at best, I am able to get the scummvm emulator to launch to the main menu...but never have been able to get it to launch to a game. My current settings at the time of this writing are the batch launcher method, but that also doesn't work. Trying the latest method with the plugin again I have the settings below...but it still doesn't work. I have enabled debug logging and i don't see anything that i recognize as an issue....

foldername: 3 Skulls of the Toltecs (CD DOS)> game data files

The 'game data files' you have are for DOSBox.

The ScummVM file is a single file.

In the particular case of 3 skulls, I have the western file as you've shown for scummvm, it varies as i look through these newly obtained zips.

Yes. For the above 2 examples, create folders in /Games/ScummVM/ and extract the files into them, respectively.

What you don't see is a .bat file.  Which if it did should tell you that's for DOSBox.

 

Not sure is ScummVM can work with zip files. But the contents are so small in size, it's just as well to unzip them.
