The Report
General Issues
Main Menu
While no longer game breaking, the main menu are still broken and becomes unusable if your not careful where you put your mouse cursor. The best way to test this is to move your mouse over the buttons a few times, the more you do it, the more broken it gets. The games menu works well without the issues the main menu has.
The help button in the puzzle game will crash the game if you click any of the text that pops up.
| WARNING: BUILDBOT: Uncaught Lingo error: No match found for cast member! Builtin 'member' did not return value
|
Color Palette Issues
This is new to this version (or at the vary least, this is the first time I noticed this) The color palette is off, its looks washed out compared to running the game a VM or on x86Box
Incorrect Cursor icons
ScummVM is not loading the correct cursor icons and causing issues. The hit boxes in the "Dot to Dot" game for example are programmed for the cursor shown in the image below, these incorrect icons makes these already bad hit boxes even worse.
The photos below shows the game running in x86Box with the correct cursor icons
In the maze "hide and seek" game, the cursor is supposed to turn into a magnifying glass when place over a spot that can be searched but in ScummVM, the cursor either become invisible or turn into the hand icon. the maze also give this cursor related error.
| WARNING: Cursor::readFromCast: Needs array of 2!

Hall of Fame
Works but has some UNK stub errors
Bible-Time Theater
Works well, videos play without graphical issues.
Mini-Games
Matching Game:
It works well but the audio that plays when you finish the board is missing. ScummVM is not playing internal cast member 21 (the named of the cast is "cherring")
Maze:
It works well
Bible Memory:
Works with some errors, the second seems to be related to a graphical issue where a box (with text in it) leaves two noticeable pieces of itself on screen. While a minor issue in this game, there is a good chance that whatever is causing this effecting another game more severely
| WARNING: Frame::readMainChannelsD5(): STUB: unk2: 0x00 0x01!
|
| WARNING: b_puppetTransition: Transition already queued!
|
Dot to Dot:
The first "Dot to Dot" seems always work but the second one (after he says "that was fun, lets play again") will always have broken graphics (aka, the line that connects each dot together is missing)
Puzzles:
Works with a minor graphical issue on the puzzle selection menu, there is a thin white line that shouldn't be there.
Word Games:
Works
This should be the finale Report, I don't think there is anything more I can add
