DARKSEED: Game Lockup / Freezes in Several Locations

Reported by: wojnarabc Owned by: yuv422
Priority: normal Component: Engine: Darkseed
Version: Keywords:
Cc: Game: Darkseed

Description (last modified by wojnarabc)

Game occasionally freezes, allowing to move around with a mouse, open inventory bar but left click just stops working.

Spotted it in two places, first during initial meeting with Delbert inside a shop on the first day. Second, when trying to get the package with handle for hammer on third day.
Enclosing save file with a state right before the second one. It freezes right after package pickup.

Played on Windows 11, 2026.1.0 Scummvm version
CD/DOS/English version of the game

Was the freeze in the shop permanent? I'm not able to replicate the lockup in the shop.

It was permanent during initial playthrough. Couldn't get past it so i restarted the game. On the second run it didn't reappear.

Thanks, your fix solved the problem! Tested on current ScummVM version using the same save file. Finally was able to finish this game off :)
