AGI: SQ1: Backround sound effects do not properly play until another sound effect plays after save game load

Reported by: bmunger Owned by:
Priority: normal Component: Engine: AGI
Version: Keywords:
Cc: Game: Space Quest 1

Description

ScummVM 2.1.0git271-gedef1d5 (Jan 17 2018 19:31:35)
Features compiled in: Vorbis FLAC MP3 ALSA SEQ sndio TiMidity RGB zLib MPEG2 FluidSynth Theora AAC FreeType2 JPEG PNG

When loading a save game, for example, the Sand Skimmer stage, the skimmer's sound does not play. However, once hitting a rock and playing the sound, the background sound returns. This is also noticeable during other areas with background effects. They play during the course of the game without an issue until loading a save game.

I wasn't able to replicate this on my arch linux system. Sound effects seem to play just fine after loading.

This might be about the SCI version and not the AGI version. There's no screenshot or save game, so we're just going off the value the OP entered in our dropdown list. Maybe they got the engine right, maybe they didn't; I've seen this mixup before.

I can't reproduce this in either version in the skimmer scene. In the SCI version, the star generator room has background sounds that do go away when loading a save game. That's original game behavior, although I don't think it's intentional. There is a ticket for that: #14768. It sounds like what the OP is describing.

It's been six years and we have nothing to go on. If it's AGI then it's a worksforme/outdated, if it's SCI then it's duplicate, though the skimmer scene works there too.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
