KQ6 - Freezing when picking up nightingale's letter

Reported by: SF/yfrwlf Owned by: bluegr
Priority: normal Component: Engine: SCI
Version: Keywords:
Cc: Game: King's Quest 6

Description

After picking up the letter and the speech is finished, the mouse cursor will stay a crown and the nightingale will still fly around but you'll be stuck and unable to move. Also, if you get too close to the snapdragons, you will freeze there and be unable to move as well. Probably a related bug.

I'm using Scumm 1.3.1. For KQ6, it says KQ6 version 1.000.00G, and this is the CD DOS version.

I tried this bug several times and I'd have the problem each time, but after creating a new game and doing the nightingale part ASAP, it no longer was freezing up at either of the parts mentioned in my bug report. It still happens in my old save game though. What a strange intermittent bug...

Perhaps this bug only shows up when you complete game objectives in a particular order?

Please attach saved games in the places where these lockups occur

The attached game save is where the letter is on the ground waiting to be picked up. After picking it up, you'll be unable to move.

comment:7 by bluegr, 13 years ago

This is the same problem as in bug #3413301. It has been fixed in the daily versions, and will be included in the next stable ScummVM 1.4.0 release. Please, download a daily version from: http://buildbot.scummvm.org/builds.html

GOB: Fix DOS EGA game detection following #5868 merge

This avoids Amiga version being picked over DOS EGA one.
They now have the same number of files so the user is prompted which
version it owns.
