DIRECTOR: CASINO! (Beachware, 1995) (D4) - menu buttons not working

Description (last modified by zxtheproto)

While most of the actual casino games in this title seem to be working, the menus don't seem to be transitioning between areas properly. Notably, the ACM, Quit, and Lobby buttons don't seem to work correctly in most areas, and neither do any of the controls to change areas in the menus at the top of the game window. No messages are sent in the console after the button is clicked.

There are some exceptions to this rule in the game. Notably, the View Games button seems to work to get back to that section of the main menu, and the ACM button works on some screens only if you click it before the game shows your current balance (ie. before the "reels" at the bottom of the screen stop spinning.) The "NO" and "CANCEL" buttons on the quit screen from the lobby can also work if you mash them several times.

Version tested: ScummVM latest Branch master, Windows (32 bits), e068b1c6 (June 9, 2022)

Hi, Thank you for reporting this bug.
There has been a lot of chances in the last 2 years regarding support.
Could you test a daily build to see if the bugs have been resolved?

I've tested this with the latest master. The current status is:

  • All the buttons (ACM, Quit and Lobby) now work correctly in all areas
  • The controls to change areas in the top menu work correctly
  • The "No" and "Cancel" buttons on the quit screen work correctly
  • The Lobby button in the ACM screen does not take you out of the ACM screen, but this seems to be intentional

Thus, all of the issues above seem to be fixed. Closing as outdated

The Lobby button in the ACM screen not working is not intentional behavior, unfortunately.

You are meant to be able to use this screen to get more money for the included games if you run out (hence the “pawn” section), then return to the game. When clicking the Lobby button, an animation of the ACM card ejecting would then play, and it would return you to the lobby screen.

I can record footage of this running on original hardware, if it would be helpful.

Here’s a link to a video sample of the intended behavior:
