Description (last modified by )
tested in ScummVM version 2.5.1
In SQ3 version 1.018, Script::cue was changed to check that scripts have a client.
Unfortunately, "announce" script in 702, the ScummSoft office region, doesn't have a client, so the 702.txt lines 7 and 8 are never displayed.

Thanks for reporting!
Also, this script patch doesn't fix saved games where you've a already entered the office. Those saves are already tainted and the messages probably won't ever appear, at least not for a few years. So don't use those to test or you'll have a long wait! =)

Great catch! I agree with your findings, this is an unintentional regression from upgrading to a newer version of the Script class. This affects all subsequent versions, so the localized ones too.
The announcement messages only randomly happen twice per game, at most, which explains why their disappearance didn't get noticed. I don't see why we shouldn't fix this and restore the corporate ambiance. I'll do it after the SQ3 thing I'm working on now.
