To reproduce the ScummVM crash, you can also select "Files" and "Restart" in the VCR menu after starting the game. When I then select "Skip to Game," ScummVM crashes.

I still wasn't able to get it to crash on "skip to game", but I did reproduce a crash on "skip to introduction" in both en and de versions.
It turned out it was reading the RST (game reset, which is basically a special save file) incorrectly in HoC. I reordered the code a bit so now it should work. Please give it another test with that change in place and let me know how it goes.

Unfortunately, I still have the problem that after a restart and then clicking on “Skip to Game” ScummVM crashed

I tried the quickest "game over" scene I could think of at the start of the game - visiting Lomax 3 times. After restarting from that it worked fine to skip to game. I wonder if this depends on the way you get to game over. Do you remember any more detail about where you were before restarting, or a save game that reproduces it?
