I recently picked up Aquabyss and was trying to start a new game in story mode to help ease me along, and when you finish talking with Albert in Paris and he says "Excellent. Follow me." and you click End Chat, the game crashes back to workbench, however if I disable both Sound and Music it seems to continue along fine, almost like it's running out of Chip RAM otherwise.
A500 68020, ECS Denise/OCS, 2MB Chip, 128MB Fast with Kickstart 3.2
I've also noticed after a bit of playing Sandbox while I was figuring this issue out that if you're at a depth of 0 when you call the Repair and Refuel sub using SOS it'll immediately exit the animation and you have to lower your depth before being able to allow the interaction to play out.
Crash on entering uncle's office in story mode
Re: Crash on entering uncle's office in story mode
Hiya!
I have the exact same issue. I can go through all the dialog, but when we are about to see my uncle it just quits back to workbench - every time.
I have also tried to disable music and gfx without success - I have also tried both bitmap and system font.
When i start the game I have exactly 2.001.416 bytes of chipmem available so that shouldn't be an issue.
I'm running it on an A1200 with a TF1260 (with FPU) and OS 3.2.1 (and kickstart ROM 3.2).
I have not tried the sandbox mode yet.
EDIT:
I tried again today.
It quits back to the workbench if I use every available dialog options to get experience and right after I have asked about the currency and choosing end chat - this happens every time.
If I just choose to see my uncle when this option is available without using the other dialog options it works without quitting. I have tried this three times, and it has worked every time.

Re: Crash on entering uncle's office in story mode
Sorry guys for the trouble. Unfortunately, this "bug" has been introduced in one of the recent dialogue updates where dialogue scripts have been increased and older game builds can't handle it anymore (nobody reported it before so it went unnoticed). However, this has been solved in the new upcoming update. You may already download it from the FTP (not from the store at the moment) but please, make a backup of your saves because once saved in the new version you won't be able to go back. To see why you'll have to look at the large list of the changelog which will be posted tonight.

Excellent, thank you!
Re: Crash on entering uncle's office in story mode
Good that this dialogue bug is solved. I had the same last days on all of my Amigas. Looking forward to see the new version.

Edit: The new update has been removed from the FTP temporarily. There are some developers' "leftovers" enabled and must be disabled for the public version.
