Summary: ScummVM crashes during gameplay

Initial Comment:
ScummVM crashes in the Cretaceous period. Sequence to reproduce:
- From the included Savegames.zip, load the savegame "20loannhit"
- Examine Lo'Ann three times; on the third attempt, you will find a pendant on her body
- Use Pendant on Lo'Ann to send Lo'Ann forward in time
- Click your way through the dialog that ensues between the Hero and the AI in the Pendant.
- The hero automatically exits the frame at the bottom of the screen
- ScummVM crashes -- presumably due to a failure in loading the next stage.

Game version: MS-DOS
Game language: English
Game media: Floppy
I cannot rule out corrupt media, although I would expect an error message rather than a crash in this eventuality.


I am running ScummVM 0.11.0 (built Jan 13 2008 20:35:46); I've not yet attempted to reproduce the bug using an SVN build.

The host operating system is Mac OS X 10.5.2, running on an intel iMac.

The compatibility section for Future Wars claims the port is only 80% complete; however, it does say the game should be completable.  The only errors mentioned are "graphics glitches" which, incidentally, I have not seen. The game played perfectly fine up to the point described here.
