KYRA1: Overlapping menu text in spanish version

Reported by: jvprat Owned by: vinterstum
Priority: normal Component: Engine: Kyra
Version: Keywords:
Cc: Game: Kyrandia 1

Description

This bug has been present in the svn snapshots since the call for testing for kyrandia appeared (didn't test it with older snapshots), but I had no time to report it before.

I use the Spanish floopy version of the game.

If I skip the intro, I can see the down part of Brandon's house (I don't know if I should see it or the menu), but it crashes immediately with this assertion:

scummvm-20060523_stripped: engines/kyra/gui.cpp:423: void Kyra::KyraEngine::setGUILabels(): Assertion `offset + 27 < _guiStringsSize' failed.

If I don't skip the intro, I can begin playing, but if I click the "Options" button, I get the same assert.

Apart from that and some graphic glitches (with items and actors), I can play quite well, thanks for your work!

Maybe you could specify which graphics glitches you mean? We don't know of any...

I guess the kyra.dat file is broken for spanish version. Assigned to vinterstum, he does all that stuff.

Are you able to compile ScummVM from sources yourself? I know what the problem is, but I need your help to fix it :) (since I don't have the spanish version myself)

Basically, edit scummvm/engines/kyra/gui.cpp, go to line 488, which looks like this:

/* for (int i = 0; i < _guiStringsSize; i++) debug("GUI string %i: %s", i, _guiStrings[i]);

for (int i = 0; i < _configStringsSize; i++) debug("Config string %i: %s", i, _configStrings[i]); */

Remove the /* and */ lines. Then run ScummVM again and start Kyra, and copy'n' paste the output that appears.

Thanks :).

I attach the output in the attached file. There are a lot of characters I can't read, so I redirected it to a file. Which encoding does it use? :S

By the way, I'll now fill a few bugs about the graphic glitches I said before.

Thanks for your effort and support! :)

Great, thanks :)

The problem actually wasn't what I thought it was, but it should be fixed now anyway.

The problem was indeed in kyra.dat, so you'll need to download a fixed version.

It still breaks here. I've recompiled it from svn, I've updated kyra.dat (md5: c541c43f7b956c7b9a64e5acec656fb0) and I've removed and readded the game in the main menu, but it still breaks with the same sympthoms. Should I do something more?

Thanks!

comment:10 by vinterstum, 18 years ago

Aha, looks like there were some additional issues with it :).

They should be fixed now. However, the only way I had of testing stuff was tricking scummvm into thinking my english floppy version was the spanish one, so please report back :). Specifically, is there a lot of text overlap in the configuration menu?

Yay! I can now skip the intro and access the menus! Thanks :D

There are a few overlapings. I've thought of using dosbox to see the original placing. In the attached screenshots you can see the difference between scummvm (left) and dosbox (right).

Thanks for your work!

However word wrap is completely unrelated bug.

jvplat if you would submit it separately, that would be really nice, from the other hand, vinterstum, you may reopen this report and change the description.

Done :)

The text alignment should work better now.
