RIVEN: Credits don't scroll all the way to black

[BlueThree86]

Riven closes/crashes to desktop at almost the very end of the credits.

I don't have a save file, but I searched for a recent Let's Play and you can see it happening to this guy.

This is something that wasn't present in the original version. After a a minute or so of music over a black screen it simply went back to the main menu.

Which game version is that and which ScummVM version did you try? Also, which platform?

It does not crash, it simply stops showing the credits once the last credits image has been shown. Once the credits are done the game ends.

To make the behavior match the original the final image needs to scroll entirely into black for a bit.

The original goes back to the main menu (or some form of it) after the credits.

1.2_svm_update3_(22594)

That's what the installer says. It includes version 2.1.0git of ScummVM.

Thanks for your report.

The credit rolling longer was added in git:3313155. The new behavior will be available in the next build.

Let us know if there are any regressions.

The game returning to the menu is less straightforward so it won't be a priority to get that in. The player can always just launch scummvm again to play riven.
