XEEN: World of Xeen CD does not show gold/exp/gems properly

[Scorpeg]

ScummVM is latest build ​https://buildbot.scummvm.org/snapshots/master/switch-master-latest.zip

Might & Magic - World of Xeen CD talkie version

Horizon OS 8.1

I believe this is Switch build bug, as on PC all shows properly.

Images displaying the defect are in attachment.

I'm using the macOS 2.1.0 release binary (built 2019/10/12) along with the CD version (cobbled together from GOG as per the readme instructions) and I am experiencing the same issue.

Just to be clear, I presume by "PC all shows properly" you mean that the same savegame shows correctly on the PC, but not on the Switch without doing anything but loading the saveagme and opening the character screen?

Note to myself: One interesting aspect of the display is that the number being shown is greater than the maximum allowable 32-bit integer. I'm wondering if perhaps the format specifier being used for displaying the gold amount is being treated as a 64-bit type for Switch, and not for PC. I'll have to double-check it to rule it out.

Actually it is not a savegame, it is a new game start without doing anything, apart opening character screen. On PC shows normally, but on Switch and it seems on MacOS - no. I suppose your guess about format being used is correct, as it really looks like it uses 64bit instead 32bit.

Okay, I think I've got this sorted out. It was indeed a mismatch on some of the format specifiers against the gold, gems, and experience.

Re-opening, because the problem is still in the Quick Reference dialog. And I should really update the strings in the create_xeen tool
