ScummVM version: ScummVM 0.7.0CVS (Oct 27 2004 00:23:28)
Game: Monkey Island 1 FM-Towns-version
Language: English
Platform: Win32

When I take a look at the map for the forest or the map
how to reach Monkey Island, no text is shown. In the
PC-version this problem doesn't exist, only on FM-Towns.

This bug makes the FM-Towns-version practically
uncompletable without a walkthrough.

You can easily reproduce this bug by using boot-param
2221. You will be on the ship. Then use commands "look
at map" (8th item in invenory) and "look at piece of
paper" (12th item).

    Please, do not play with priority settings.

    I'm sorry. I though the user who submits the bug also has to
    estimate the priority.
    But you chose 1? Isn't this rather low for a bug that makes
    a version of a (officially supported) game basically
    uncompletable?

    I set it to 1 because the game is extremely rare. Only few
    devteam members have it to test, and not too much people
    could get it as well. I have no idea when this bug will be
    addressed, but it will not happen soon, as this bug is very
    obvious but still wasn't resolved.

    Basically it will stay here as a reminder when somebody will
    manage to devote some time to it, and so priority really has
    no meaning here.

    Status is unknown but likely unchanged. As it is, we don't even have an
    independent verification of the bug.

    The bug is still there in 0.9.0 stable.
    Don't know about SVN, but since nobody wrote anything in
    here I guess it's also still in this version.

    I got this game too and I made a dump of the scripts for that scene

    The interesting ones are entry-63.dmp (the dancing lessons map) and entry-84.dmp (the cooking map) but I can submit all the relevant ones for that room. Would they be useful to debug this glitch?

    Forgot to add that I also get this glitch in the FM-TOWNS version
    The PC version works fine, though

    Not sure if this helps, but here goes:
    If I force the platform to "PC" and open the cooking map, it's still the same: no text is shown
    IF I open the dancing lessons map when the platform is set to "PC", ScummVM crashes with the error:
    "Unknown screen effect, 12!"

    The FM-TOWNS version draws text on some kind of overlay. This causes this bug and many other FM-TOWNS bugs, as we currently don't implement that feature.

    This should be fixed now.

    Pleae test again with latest SVN. Be sure to use a build with Hi-Color support (USE_RGB_COLOR). Using old savegames may lead to palette glitches. It would be appreciated if you could play through your Scumm Fm-Towns games again right from the beginning and report any bugs you find.

    I set this item to pending.
