Comment (by kparal):
D'oh, I'm sorry! There indeed was `~/.scummvm/lastexpress-blue.egg` . It
was created by ScummVM 2.9.1, and that's why ScummVM 2026.2.0 probably
considered it corrupt. I didn't realize the save files are placed into a
different non-game directory. It makes sense of course, it just wasn't
obvious to me.
After I removed the .egg file, The Last Express now starts correctly.
Thank you!
I believe this ticket can now be closed.
As a possible recommendation, you could change this error line:
{{{
ERROR: Save game file "blue.egg" is corrupt!
}}}
to include a **full** file path. That would make it easier for other
people that encounter this problem to figure out how to resolve it.
Thanks again.
