i have no mouth - keeps crashing

Post by sblaise84 »

I'm playing I have no mouth and I must scream on my tmobile g1. I'm playing as ted at the castle. Whenever I talk to the maid in the kitchen scummvm crashes.

What do you mean by "crashes"? Does it show any error message? Does it work in the desktop version of ScummVM?

I've committed a fix for this. The script system for the SAGA engine (which I Have no Mouth uses) has been rewritten in a better way, which will allow us to add subsequent games more easily. However, there was a nasty bug which seems to occur in special situations after this rewrite. I've fixed the bug, but I don't know if it'll make it to version 0.13.0 or not.

There hasn't been any testing on SAGA games for version 0.13.0, so I didn't know about this bug until you mentioned it...
(this change was made about 48 days ago, btw... :( )

In response to the first person who replied; the game simply ends. As soon as I talk to the maid the game screen disappears and goes back to my phones home screen.

I also have a problem when I talk 2 ellen in the bedroom. When I tell her 2 go back 2 sleep to end the conversation AM, and a demon that I think should have an animation (but only seems to be a voice) yell at me and then the game freezes up. I can still see the conversation box but can't click on anything or get out of the screen.

To the developer; I have the android version of scummvm. Does this mean I can't play I have no mouth? If the fix was implemented 45 days ago then its not in my version or its still messed up. Please help I really wanna play this on my phone!

I also have a prob with sam n max. When the game tries 2 add fishworld to the map the game freezes on the map screen.

O lol just realized both posters were the dev. Sorry lol I'm posting off my phone didn't see the name. But yea like I said the game goes back to my home screen when I talk 2 the maid, and the screen freezes up when I finish talking 2 ellen.

Also, same problem with sam n max. When I look at the fish magnet the game freeezes on the map screen and I usually have 2 restart my phone to uncrash scummvm.

And in response 2 ur question, I don't have the desktop version only the android version on my phone. I know I could play these on my pc (and there might be engines that run ihnm pefectly) but I actually want them on my phone for when I'm bored someplace or traveling. This crashing/freezing issue sucks :(

I think he meant that the change that broke things was made 48 days ago.

I just finished IHNM completely. I experienced no crashes with the SAGA script fixes.

Tested on 0.13.0 r38584 on the Wii.

Bad version? Try copying the files from the disc to the game folder again.
I haven't seen this up anywhere as an e-download.
Try getting it's md5 sum and check it.

I fixed that problem in a version of ScummVM that is *newer* than the one you got, therefore that error is to be expected. So, grab version 0.13.0 when it's released for Android

Sam and Max has a different engine, so it won't apply.

Use another version (eg. PC) of ScummVM to get past the point you are now. Savegames should be compatible for all platforms, so you can at least continue your current game.
