AGS: Gobliiins 5: Game crashes after completing the first part

[ctoroman]

ScummVM 2.10.0git14413-gea5db0b3ea2 (Apr 20 2025 04:40:27)

Debugger started, type 'exit' to return to the game.
Type 'help' to see a little list of commands and variables.
There was an error drawing object 3. Its current sprite, 2064, is invalid.!

I found that the problem started after this commit.

The stable version 2.9.0 has the same bug

I found a solution to the problem for myself. I understand that it is not entirely correct, but this error does not occur.

Thanks for the report, how can I reproduce the issue? After giving the king's seal to the sleeping guy, the cutscene plays normally and then the newspaper is shown.
On my system then the game fails with a ShellExecute error, (which seems to be a problem with the original game as indicated by this reply from the developer):

Sayanel:
j'ai finalement réussis à faire tourner le jeu avec steam (en important le winesetup sur la bibliothèque steam, et en forçant l'utilisation de Proton-8) mais le jeu crash systématiquement à la fin du tableau 4, si quelqu'un a une solution...
Pierre Gilhodes:
Hello, malgré le message d'erreur, la première partie est finie, il faut lancer la partie 2. Le jeu est en 4 exe.

In any case the first part is finished, you can just load the second part (the four parts must be started separately, you don't need to load a save from the previous part)

When the newspaper is shown, click the mouse button.

I know that)

This is also an invalid sprite error, right? There is a good chance this is fixed once ScummVM updates to AGS 3.6.3. See: https://bugs.scummvm.org/ticket/16116

Yes. Obviously, since ScummVM hasn't been updated to AGS v3.6.3 yet. Only after they update and test it will we know.
