SCUMM: MI1 - Wrong color for smoke and potion at Voodoo Lady in CD-version

[GermanTribun]

System: Windows 11
ScummVM: 2026.2.0
Game: Monkey Island 1
Version: German CD

This here is an original error that was created wehen the game was converted for CD. The scene at the Voodoo Lady was brightened up compared to the floppy version, which does result in brighter colors on the actors and the cauldron as well as different color cycling effects (at least I think those are intentional...).

However, as seen on the screenshots, it caused a color error. The smoke and the potion in the cauldron originally were three shades of green. In the CD-version, one shade of green was replaced by pure white, which looks very off.

Can that color be fixed like you fixed the color of Smirk's circar smoke?

EDIT: Strangely enough, the text color of the Voodoo Lady also is differnt. Intentional or oversight? I speculate the color changed when they changed the GUI (thus the change of her text color would be an accident).

EDIT 2: The smoke coming out of the cooking pot o nthe ship has exactly the same color problem. Most likely because it's the same object.

Thanks for highlighting this.

Usually, we use LogicDeluxe's script fixes on the Ultimate Talkie Edition as a reference. It relied on deep studies of the original game scripts, in order to keep as much original artistic intent as possible.

It looks like the Ultimate Talkie Edition edition did restore the text color from the VGA floppy release, so I guess we could do the same (we're already fixing some text color issues in the VGA CD release -- as they really were unintended script oversights).

I'm not sure the white color in the smoke is such an error, though. Doesn't look that off, to me.

But I'll look into it and, as you say, we're already providing a similar enhancement for Smirk.
