Description

ScummVM version: Win32 Daily SVN 2010-10-30

Bug details, including instructions on reproducing it: 1. In front of Scotia's first barrier (Upper Opinwood), equip Vaelan's Cube as a weapon 2. Attack the barrier with the character that has the cube Expected result: The Vaelan's Cube (in the character's weapon slot) changes color Actual result: The mouse cursor changes second Vaelan's Cube with the opposite color. This duplicate cube can be placed in the inventory and used later. The procedure can be repeated multiple times, because the integrity of the barrier is not affected.

Reproducibility: 10/10

Language of game: English Version of game: Floppy Platform and Compiler: Win32, unknown compiler (downloaded from ScummVM site)

I could reproduce this one. This happens in early (unpatched) DOS floppy versions only. The problem here is that you simply should not be able to equip the cube as a weapon.

The bug is fixed in this official patch: ftp://ftp.westwood.com/pub/lands1/updates/lolus123.exe

Nonetheless, I have also added a workaround since ScummVM users should not need to apply patches if it can be avoided. The cube can't be equipped in the weapn slot any more.

It would be welcome if you could play through this game version without applying the official patch. There might be more bugs like this for which I'd like to add workarounds.

No problem, I will leave the game unpatched and look out for any other glitches.
