GRIM: Issue with Toto

[aquadran]

In year two, you have to show Toto a piece of paper you find inside Lola's coat, in order to move foward the story. Problem is I can't interact with him, it let`s me interact with the phone and some other elemets, but not with Toto. How can I solve this? I'd love to keep playing it but I'm stuck :/

Is this still an issue? The original Github-issue is 10 years old, and people have completed the game quite a few times since then.

In my recent playthrough with ScummVM 2.9.0git, I reached Year 3 (so I passed this point without issue). That was before our patch for the Vault door in Year 3 (closed issue https://bugs.scummvm.org/ticket/14987).

I may be wrong but the description of the ticket hints that the user attempted to show the paper slip to Toto, while the phone is free and thus while Toto is still working on the tattoo for the sailor (?)

It's very likely that some things can be done out of order during Year 2.

I am attaching a saved game from my playthrough (the grim41.gsv file) that I saved again (to get the patch fixes for the vault door issue).

In this playthrough, the sailor has already passed out and Toto will be talking on the phone (forever). You can enter Toto's place and show him the paper slip, while he is on the phone.

This proves that, *at that time*, you can show the paper slip to him.

But, perhaps if one went to Toto earlier, while Toto was still working they would still ran into the issue as described in the original post in this ticket. I haven't tested that yet.

It is indeed possible to get the tattoo paper slip before the sailor (Naranja) is passed out.

I am attaching a save game (grim.49), where Manny has the tattoo paper, but Naranja is still awake.

However, in this case, even though it's still possible to look at and interact with Toto, if you show him the paper he says something in the lines of "Not right now, I'm busy with Naranja".

So, it seems that it's only possible to effectively show the paper to Toto, and him then browsing through his tattoo book for a matching design, *after* Naranja has passed out -- which is the case for the previous saved game I've attached.

Thus, I don't think that this bug report applies anymore.
