Description
Police Quest II: The Vengance (PC98/Japanese) ScummVM: 1.3.1 with SJIS.FNT created by create_sjisfnt
Listing of items does not work. It affects both following cases: 1. Looking at places containing items shows an empty list. 2. Looking at inventory shows an empty list.
Steps to reproduce: 1. Immediately after starting PQ2, enter commands "open compartment" and "look compartment" - an empty list of items is displayed. 2. after taking items - for example "take keys", typing "inventory" - produces an empty list, not showing inventory content.

Is it only a visual problem? I.e., does the game otherwise behave as if you have the items?
Could you also test with a daily build of ScummVM? It is possible that this is the same bug as #3368821, which we fixed last month.

The problem persists also with latest SVN 1.4.0git1759-g8935c7c (Aug 23 2011 04:09:19).

Could you try the following?
Start PQ2, enter the command "open compartment"
Press Ctrl-Shift-D to enter our debugger Enter the command "logkernel Format on" Enter the command "logkernel StrCat on" (Note that these commands are case sensitive) Enter the command "go" to leave the debugger again
Back in the game, enter "look in compartment", and then enter the debugger again with Ctrl-Shift-D. You should see a few lines that look like
kFormat: 000b:00c2 (' car registration'), 995, 0, 0001:1c5a ('car registration') = 000b:00c2 kStrCat: 000b:00fe ('In the glove compartment you see: car registration'), 000b:00c2 (' car registration') = 000b:00fe kStrCat: 000b:00fe ('In the glove compartment you see: car registration,'), 0009:01ab (',') = 000b:00fe kFormat: 000b:00c2 (' your LPD business card'), 995, 0, 0001:1c98 ('your LPD business card') = 000b:00c2 kStrCat: 000b:00fe ('In the glove compartment you see: car registration, your LPD business card'), 000b:00c2 (' your LPD business card') = 000b:00fe kStrCat: 000b:00fe ('In the glove compartment you see: car registration, your LPD business card.'), 0009:01ad ('.') = 000b:00fe
Could you report what you get? (The first few lines may have scrolled off-screen, but please copy those too)

Hello, the debug output follows. If you need me to check anything further, I'd be happy to help.

Please disregard my previous comment, after posting I noticed the paste was partial. Please look at the following:
kFormat: 0012:0000 ('l'), 996, 0, 108 = 0012:0000 kStrCat: 000b:0140 ('In the glove compartment you see:%JâOâìü[âuâ{âbâNâXé╔éáéΘéαé╠é═üAcar registration%JÄ╘é╠ôoÿ^Å╪'), 0001:20e0 ('car registration%JÄ╘é╠ôoÿ^Å╪') = 000b:0140 kStrCat: 000b:0140 ('In the glove compartment you see:%JâOâìü[âuâ{âbâNâXé╔éáéΘéαé╠é═üAcar registration%JÄ╘é╠ôoÿ^Å╪, %JüA'), 0009:0217 (', %JüA') = 000b:0140 kStrCat: 000b:0140 ('In the glove compartment you see:%JâOâìü[âuâ{âbâNâXé╔éáéΘéαé╠é═üAcar registration%JÄ╘é╠ôoÿ^Å╪, %JüAyour LPD business card%JâèâbâgâôîxÄ@ÅÉé╠û╝Äh'), 0001:215a ('your LPD business card%JâèâbâgâôîxÄ@ÅÉé╠û╝Äh') = 000b:0140 kStrCat: 000b:0140 ('In the glove compartment you see:%JâOâìü[âuâ{âbâNâXé╔éáéΘéαé╠é═üAcar registration%JÄ╘é╠ôoÿ^Å╪, %JüAyour LPD business card%JâèâbâgâôîxÄ@ÅÉé╠û╝Äh.%JüB'), 0009:021e ('.%JüB') = 000b:0140

Something clearly seems to be going wrong with the multi-language strings. We may be calling getSciLanguageString()/strSplit() at the wrong time for the string manipulations done here to work. This needs to be investigated further.

I understand. If there's any further information I can provide, please let me know.
