DescriptionGameVersion: english,pal

Can someone tell me what does "Invalid size allocating string 31 size -1"
error means and is there a way to fix it?
I get this in Indiana Jones and Fate of Atlantis game, when the save game disk is checked at beginning. I think Amiga hung up during the save procedure and the virtual disk got corrupted somehow. Any ideas?

can you share your installation files somewhere?

Here you go, full installation directory, copied from the amiga:

Worth noting that it is packed on amiga using Dopus.

I would be grateful if explanation is provided, what happened and is there a way that I can fix it in the future for this and any other game that crashes this way?

an update has been posted to whdload page. The problem was an empty iq-points file that confused the game.

But deleting it isn't a very good idea too. I suggest that you wait for the new .slave file to be published.
