Same thing on my pc, just that the error is:

Error: -2147259940 Illegal Glob type 7 num 101!

this seems to work fine for me (using latest cvs) - at least for MI2 and FOA.

The following error occurs during compiling:

gcc -g -Wno-multichar -DUNIX `sdl-config --cflags` -c gui.cpp gui.cpp:251: warning: converting NULL to non-pointer type gui.cpp: In method `void Gui::addLetter(char)': gui.cpp:411: warning: comparison is always true due to limited range of data type

errors or warnings? has it to do with the F5 bug?

btw.. F5 works ok using Visual C++ in windows

comment:5 by SF/jackburton, 22 years ago

Warnings. Now they aren't anymore, but F5 still crashes the same way.

comment:6 by SF/chuzwuzza, 22 years ago

I get an error almost the same

Error: 134701884 Illegal Glob type 7 num 93! Press a key to quit.

and then it crashes. This is on linux with gcc 2.95.3 with glibc 2.2.4 in Monkey Island 2. it works fine on samnmax and dott however

I found out that FOA, MI1 and MI2 are SCUMM V5 games and DOTT and S&M are SCUMM V6 games. Maybe it has to be found in this direction... The F5 key in V6 games does work, and in V5 games not.

Linux 2.4.14, gcc 2.95.2 and glibc 2.1.3

Logged In: NO

I get the following error message upon hitting F5 in Monkey Island 2, under Linux:

"Error: 134731528 Illegal Glob type 7 num 93!"

Upon changing line 593, in resource.cpp, from:

error("%d Illegal Glob type %d num %d", str, type, index);

to:

error("%s Illegal Glob type %d num %d", str, type, index);

I get a less cryptic error message:

"Error: getResourceAddress Illegal Glob type 7 num 93!"

Thanks to nnooiissee for that code change. Perhaps this will make it eaiser to debug for you developer folk. :)

Also, I'm running Linux 2.4.8, gcc 2.96.

Hope this helps.

I have no idea what's causing this. Everything works for me in both version 5 and version 6 games, with MSVC as the development environment.
