Error while using compress_scumm_san.exe

Post by calpchen »

I'm using ScummVM Tools 0.11.0. I get the following error when running compress_scumm_san.exe:

Code: Select all

frame: 0
Assertion failed: tag == 'FRME', file compress_scumm_san.cpp, line 752
I noticed that this popped up a few years ago in another thread, but I found no solution there.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

First, I would try to recopy the data from the disc.

What video are you trying to compress and from what game?

I discovered the reason.

That error occurs when you try to re-compress *.san files that have already been compressed.

Maybe the utility should detect such a condition and warn the user?

er... if you owned the original game you should propably already know if the files are compressed or not ... so no.

Forum Rule #0.

Go buy the game.

Uh, I do own the game. How could one not own a copy of Monkey Island 3? How did you think I figured out the problem? Don't throw accusations around like that.

Anyway, I was trying to encode into MP3 format everything that had previously been encoded in Vorbis format. I deleted the *.ogg files forgetting that the *.san files had been modified as well.
