Description
Version: 1.6.0 Issue: I open my save file, and the following message comes up:
Console is ready
Debugger started, type 'exit' to return to the game.
Type 'help' to see a little list of commands and variables.
ERROR: Invalid arithmetic operation (params: 0005:0636 and 0000:0000) from method

The reason I'm using ones downloaded from the internet is because the one I bought (stored on a disk after I put it there from a floppy) wasn't working with DOSbox. Thinking my files were corrupt, I downloaded some from the web. I just checked though, and they're exactly the same. Is that ok?

We do not provide support for anyone obtaining games in this way. See: http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Copyright_FAQ
Apart from the legal issues, it is highly likely that this version has modified or corrupted datafiles.
You can buy a copy of KQ4 inexpensively from many sources including GOG: http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Where_to_get_the_games#Sierra_Games
