There's nothing in the attached log except for ScummVM startup.. did you attach the right file? :)

comment:2 by bliznik, 12 months ago

Did you want me to attach a different file? If so, which one?

It's easy to reproduce by installing the latest development build, loading Ultima 6, and then start a new game. After you finish creating your character (by answering the gypsy questions), the game will crash.

Would be nice to get fixed before 2.8.0 release

Thanks for the report! It looks like I broke roof loading/drawing in commit c4970c95dc48fdf38891cec3740ccf98dfd090f9 "Fix crash in GUI on surface blit".

PR with fix is here: ​https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/pull/5441

If this is indeed the cause of your crash, a possible workaround is disabling roofs in scummvm.ini.
The key for both [ultima6] and [ultima6_enh] is 

ultima6/roof_mode=no
