Description

ScummVM 0.4.1cvs Built on May 23 2003 16:51:18 When I try to go to the phone company store or to the 14th Avenue, Zak turns back and says: "This is a limited game, since the Copy Protection failed" I have all files and mp3 tracks on my harddisk. It worked fine in previous versions of ScummVM.

Is this with a newly started game, or using a savegame?

I can't reproduce this in either case.

I can confirm the problem, when trying to enter 14th Avenue with current ScummVM, but the problem doesn't occur in ScummVM 0.4.0

I started a new game. My old savegames do not work any more, so I've deleted them.

I found at least, how to work-around this bug. see attached object-codes-decompiles.

//START OC OF THE DOOR Events: 2 - 0022 3 - 0038 7 - 002D [0022] (0A) startScript(31,[135]) [0028] (07) setState(151,1) [002C] (00) stopObjectCode() [002D] (0A) startScript(32,[135]) [0033] (07) setState(151,0) [0037] (00) stopObjectCode() [0038] (A8) if (Var[151 Bit 8]) { [003D] (91) animateCostume(Var[1],250) [0041] (D8) printEgo([Text("This is a limited game, since the Copy Protection failed")]); [007C] (2E) delay(60) [0082] (18) } else { [0080] (0F) if (getState(135) == 1) { [0089] (24) loadRoomWithEgo(151,4,-1,-1) [0091] (**) } [0091] (**) } [0091] (00) stopObjectCode() END //END OC OF THE DOOR

//START OC OF THE 14TH AVENUE Events: FF - 0023 [0023] (A8) if (Var[151 Bit 8]) { [0028] (91) animateCostume(Var[1],250) [002C] (D8) printEgo([Text("This is a limited game, since the Copy Protection failed")]); [0067] (2E) delay(60) [006D] (18) } else { [006B] (24) loadRoomWithEgo(160,5,40,116) [0076] (**) } [0076] (00) stopObjectCode() END // END OC OF THE 14TH AVNUE

in both cases Var[151 Bit 8] is checked.
