SCUMM/Bugs

In the following you will find a number of bugs which actually already occur when using the original interpreter / .EXE. That is, those errors are bugs in the games themselves, not in ScummVM. Still, we sometimes are able to implement workarounds, meaning ScummVM at times works better than the original ;).

Note that neither of these lists is complete.

In Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, in the wits path, after rescuing Trottier from the Nazis in Monte Carlo, Trottier tells Indy the name of the two streets at the intersection of which he threw the stone disk out of the window during the car chase. In one instance, when the intersection is between "Boulevard des Guerres des Etoiles and Rue Aubergine," the spoken text is wrong the first time Trottier tells it. He says he threw the disk at the intersection between "Avenue Victor Hugo and Rue Aubergine". The subtitles are correct as is the spoken text when Trottier tells it the second time (after Indy asked him to repeat). [Bug #2553324]
