King's Quest 6 Cannot Take Paper From SpiderWeb

[emuguru]

On Isle of Wonder, just to the right of the main scene, If you attempt to pull the spiderweb thread, then take the paper that is caught in the web, the game will let Alexander take the paper, and then it will freeze just after the wind blows the paper out of Prince Alexander's hand.

This is producible from the CD-ROM MS-DOS/Windows version of the game, both in the MS-DOS version, and the Microsoft Windows version. This was not an issue before, but I am not sure which version of ScummVM broke this action.

The console Window shows no errors or information, the animation of the bees in the scene continue to function, and the in game menu is still accessible, but Alexander cannot move or interact with anything.

I can even save and restore the game in this state.

I have included save states for the MS-DOS and the Windows Versions.

The Windows version saves are both just before the bug and just after the bug and are titled.

The MS-DOS version is saved after the bug only, as I did not realize the bug would happen before trying to take the paper.
