The MAC version anyway, crashes when I add it into the latest Scummvm version.

Update: Went back to Mac intel 10.7+ 2.1.0 & Feebles got accepted into ScummVM, list that as a thing to fix in the next release.

Still doesn't work on the latest version of Scumm. Been that way since after 2.1.0. Don't know why the compatibility section says excellent on that game. Crashes every time I click on it to play.

Nostalgia673: Rather than complaining about it here, please file this as a bug on the tracker giving full details of the datafiles, what O/S you are running etc. and you might get this actually fixed... This is listed clearly in the Forum Rules as 3a: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=17

Most of these kind of issues turn out to either be corrupted game datafiles, especially if downloaded from random websites which tend to have mildly broken copies or you may have a variant or localised version which are hard to track down for developers...

In any case, file this as a bug against the AGOS engine with sufficient detail and a developer may take a look...

There was a bug introduced between version 2.1.0 and 2.1.1 that caused a crash when adding some games to ScummVM: https://bugs.scummvm.org/ticket/11433. The bug is present in versions 2.1.1 and 2.1.2. This looks like the bug you initially reported, but this bug has already been fixed though. And it also causes a crash when adding a game to ScummVM, not when starting the game. So your last message suggest you may be seeing a different bug now.

So please try with a recent daily build and if it indeed crashes when starting the game please create a bug report with all the relevant information as suggested by digitall.

I can confirm that there is an issue adding the game with 2.1.1 and 2.1.2 stable, but not in the daily Windows snapshot or the development builds for 2.2.0git for Feeble Files (GOG version, 4CD Windows)
