AdmiralBarrett: Micartu's posted patch is the solution you are looking for. I have played this game for a while, I have the Masterpiece Collection version and I am aware of the game's rather sordid history because of its game-breaking bugs. The Ilvis bug was introduced in the CD version with 1.2. The Masterpiece Collection's 1.2A version patches this out. Essentially, GOG used the wrong patch in its compilation when it released the product. As obscure as the game is, except to D&D fans who remember and love Ravenloft, I doubt that GOG was aware of this. Version 1.2A doesn't eliminate ALL of the bugs. The Jeweler's bug is still there and the Living Wall enemy is bugged beyond belief. However, most of the problems are cleaned up. GOG Support need to update its product with the 1.2A version to avoid folks getting understandably upset when they get to the Ilvis dungeon and the game crashes.
jsy82: Thanks for the reply. I have it sorted out. I wasn't aware that the master collection had a 1.2A version. I didn't know anyone that owned the collection back in the day so I didn't know about this until now. Most people I knew that had these game had the original copies (CD or otherwise). I just wish I could update my GOG review of Strahd's Possession because it was written mostly out of frustration. I still think, however, that people purchasing this game should be aware of this problem.
jsy82: I am having a problem with a missing file (D:\cine13.anm). I can't seem progress in an area in the game because of it. I tried reinstalling the game but this issue persists. I also have a problem with an area in Barovia. One of the homes (the ghost jeweler house) can't run the proper fmv. I plays the company logo and gets stuck on a black screen. This is very frustrating. Any help would be appreciated and I hope this will be fixed by gog in the future (if possible).
Fixed.
