Thanks, I will add it to our testing results page.

That sounds interesting. Did you use the same savegame when trying to reproduce the glitch?

hydr0x wrote: 2) Reproducable. When loading a game while holding an item (and thus not having the standard cursor) it will still show the item (the different cursor) afterwards, even if you don't actually own that item in that savegame. It only goes away if you click on something that changes the cursor. Please note that this is purely visual, it neither gives you the item nor does it influence anything else, nor you can use the "virtual" item. It works as a standard cursor, but doesn't show it ;)

That seems to happen with Beneath as Steel Sky too, when loading via the GMM. I guess this is a more general problem.
Maybe you can file a bug report about it? (It's fine if you only mention your Kyra problem)

Pretty sure, yeah.

Don't want to create an account just for this, sorry. I'm also not 100% sure if it happened in the original game or not.

OS: German 32-Bit Windows Vista Home Premium, SP2

I'm playing through Kyrandia 2 (English CD) right now and have already had two crashes when trying to load a savegame (over the CTRL+F5 option). No kind of log for the first crash (which exited to Windows), Vista crash report for the second (which froze) is:

EDIT: just noticed a graphical bug which I can't reproduce

In that cave with the big skull where you have to "press" the tooths in the right order. After I clicked the red one its glow disappeared but left a red rectangle around the tooth. Similarly for the blue one, it left "sparks" on the tooth. As I said, can't reproduce

Well no, it doesn't even happen, when you use the KYRA menu. Just click on the options button on bottom left for that.

Is that reproducable? Also did you try it via the KYRA internal menu? Or at least do you still remember in which scenes / for which saves it happened? And in the best case are you able to provide a save for that?

On a side note, it would be nice if you could provide that KYRA1 save too.

I can't make out any useful information of that Vista report though.

Another small bug:

In the city on the screen with the fish shaped building where you find the first new page for your recipe book there are four items at the bottom. One of them is the page. I picked it up first and got "a new page for my....". I put the page in my book and then picked up the orange peel and it again said "a new page for my....".

About those saves. I cannot recall the first crash I'm afraid. The second one happened in that cave with the skull, right after the bug with the tooths. I can likely provide a savegame of that. I'm not sure about when exactly the bug in kyra1 happened so I don't have a savegame :/

I fixed that, thanks for reporting. You should probably grab a newer build (at least r42543) and then continue the game. The bug should affect all items you try to pick up.

Does that mean for kyra2, you at least still have the saves, which caused the crashes?

hydr0x · Post by **hydr0x** » Thu Jul 16, 2009 10:35 pm

I still have the saves yeah, but I only remember which one caused the second crash. I don't think it is actually related to the saves themselves though, it seemed rather random. Loading the same save again did not reproduce the crash too.

LordHoto · Post by **LordHoto** » Thu Jul 16, 2009 10:38 pm

Would be still nice to have them for further debugging. So if you have no problems with it you can just send them to my email.

Do you only want the one which I know caused problems or all my savegames (~ two dozen per game)?

I letely had a problem at Indy 4 talkie version team path. When I argue with Sophia about her climbing through the hole in the labyrinth, and I go back, climb up the chain and finally get the golden box, I finally find her in the Sternhart room. When I then talk to her, she eventually climbs on my shoulders as if t was in the other room and the game crashes. Ich had that only and I don't know whether this is reconstructable.

The one causing problems should be fine.

Yay! Just finished Discworld 1 (Talkie) with ScummVM 1.0.0svn42472 (Jul 14 2009 21:07:29)
Windows XP SP3

I had one crash in the last act when I used the dynamite on Mambo 16 while at the Dragon Sanctuary. ScummVM showed the cutscene and then exited to desktop. I couldn't replicate it the following time around. The main difference between then and finishing it now was that last night I played for several hours and forgot to save. (Had to redo all of Act 3 today) It might have been linked to a long playing session.

Just completed Discworld 2: Missing Presumed ...!? (CD/DOS/ENGLISH (US)) on the July 16th 1.0.0 SVN, on Windows XP.

Impressively, I noticed no real glitches (though I wasn't trying THAT hard to find them), good job! I might play through again in a bit looking for errors a bit more actively.

Testing Full Throttle (Version B/English) using 1.0.0svn42590 on Ubuntu 9.04 (x86).

Found a palette glitch. Steps to reproduce:

1. Follow Maureen to the Mink Farm (trucker takes you, steals your fuel hose)
2. Maureen takes off out of the barn on her bike
3. Follow her, she gets away, Cavefish blow up the bridge
4. Go to the truck, unscrew the wheels, kick it over
5. Return to mink farm
6. Go to bridge

At the bridge, the next time you get on the highway, the palette is messed up. Here's a screencast of the glitch, and a link to a save file.
