hello,

I installed simon (the first one) yesterday and it was working perfectly, save games and save states.

Today when I started it up, it worked still until I loaded my savegames from yesterday.

When I load a saved game today it brings me to where I left off, but the controls are frozen. The animations work, the sound works and I can even hover my mouse over objects and get the descriptions. but when I try to click on a verb or on a part of the screen, simon just stays there and nothing happens. I tried this with 4 saves of different areas and gameplay times, but still nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated because I got reasonably far in this.

Thanks.

well I managed to revert to an unfrozen savegame that wasn't too far off thankfully.

I then managed to resave and continue. but this is still a weird bug.

Same here... and no solution out there... this really sucks cuz i'm recording a retro Let's Play and before every recordingsession i have to play the game all over again... this cant be true... *sigh*
It would help if you could add a bug report on ScummVM web site, with an example saved game attached.

Also are you loading and saving via the postcard, or via the quick load/save keys?
