#3230 PAJAMA SAM 2: Background gfx glitch in intro
ScummVM 0.11.0svn (Jun 7 2007 07:49:05)
Features compiled in: Vorbis FLAC MP3 zLib MPEG2
A little graphics glitch in the intro.
When Sam reaches to the little seat to pick up a puzzle
piece he halts for a moment and the background stripe
which marks the cushion shadow is drawn over Sam's feet.
This happens only when the TV "flickers" (gets brighter)
Picture attached.

Take a lok at Sam's feet, see the "line" on it?

Unchanged, the problem still occurs under ScummVM 0.11.0svn.
I'm probably stating the obvious here, but there are two overlapping actors: Sam and the glow from the TV. The glitch seems to happen on frames where only the light actor is redrawn. If I force ScummVM to always draw actors the problem goes away, but I'm guessing that's not the correct solution.
I assume the reason Sam isn't redrawn is that at this particular point of the intro, he's not moving. Only the light from the TV is.
Fixed in ScummVM GiT, use the next daily snapshot of ScummVM GiT.
The problems was due to actors with shadows always needing to be redrawn.
