So, I’m using the Mac floppy version & I’m at the part of the game where you have to use Doc’s whiskey glass on his illegible prescription (https://youtu.be/ow33gh2Otco?t=42m28s). Instead of seeing the correct thing, I get the error message:
view resource 680 not found!

It looks like the same bug as https://sourceforge.net/p/scummvm/bugs/4969/ & https://sourceforge.net/p/scummvm/bugs/5400/ but, with a different output.

    Use the whiskey glass on the prescription to see the "view resource 680 not found!" error message.

    So, here's a save file from the Mac game (while running it in SheepShaver). Not sure if this helps at all but, I figured it couldn't hurt.

    Here's a screenshot of what should happen (taken while running the game in SheepShaver)

    This part seems different from the PC version.
    Does the whiskey glass move? Or is it fixed to the top right? What does the mouse cursor look like?

    Yeah, it's different. The whiskey glas doesn't move. If you click the mouse, that's when the message pops up. I've attached a video of how the whole thing looks in-game.

      No problem. Thanks for fixing the bug :D Just compiled the source from the github 1.8 branch and it works like a charm.
