#15764: Unknown game variant for Sierra AGI Xmas demo
--------------------+--------------------------
Reporter:  vvdleun  |      Owner:  (none)
    Type:  defect   |     Status:  new
Priority:  normal   |  Component:  Engine: AGI
 Version:           |   Keywords:  unknown-game
    Game:           |
--------------------+--------------------------
 I found a Sierra XMas demo on an old copy of a shareware CD-ROM and
 noticed the latest version of ScummVM does not seem to support it. It
 identifies the game as a fanmade AGI game and it crashes during running.

 Running the same demo on DOSBox does not give problems.

 I've looked in the AGI detection tables source on GitHub and see several
 XMas Card variants, but apparently this particular one is not known yet.

 I thought I'd report this. I think I can legally provide the demo files if
 that would help (it looks like it was made to be distributed, but unf.
 there is no license or README of any kind, so it's hard to tell for sure).
 For now I've attached some screenshots and the output of "dir".

 Please let me know if I can be of further help if is anyone is willing to
 look into it. I've tried all usual shortcuts to try the demo to get it to
 report a version (ALT+D), but I couldn't get any to work.

 The error that the debug console outputs when running the demo and crashes
 (after the Tandy screen) is: "ERROR: unexpected end of view data for view
 10!".

 ScummVM reports this:

 The game in 'XMAS86\' seems to be an unknown game variant.

 Please report the following data to the ScummVM team at
 https://bugs.scummvm.org/ along with the name of the game you tried to add
 and its version, language, etc.:
