Comment:

 We should be cautious about closing crash reports as invalid within a few
 days when the component field hasn't even been set. I just stumbled on
 this randomly and other SCI devs likely haven't seen it yet. Someone just
 reported a crash bug and we've given them permission to go away and
 overwrite their broken save, our only clue to diagnosing this error,
 without any investigation.

 Silver1983, can you attach the save game file(s) that failed to load? That
 way we can try to figure out what's wrong them. I'm assuming you're on
 Windows since you mentioned GOG, you can find those files at:

 {{{

 %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\ScummVM\Saved games
 }}}


 You listed two versions of ScummVM, I'm assuming because GOG came with
 2.0.0 and you then downloaded a newer version to try. Do you know which
 one created the saved game(s) that won't load? I'm assuming both versions
 error when attempting to load the files.

 We've fixed a number of GK2 bugs since 2.0.0 but that error message
 doesn't ring a bell.

 I'm re-opening this in hopes of getting Silver1983's attention. If the
 broken save files are gone or there's no response then it can be closed
 again.
