After climbing the ladder in the beginning of this level, my Sam character gets stuck below the water pipe directly to the right. He can turn, crouch, and jump on the spot, but he can't move an inch in any direction. Only thing to do is to restart the level, climb the ladder - and get stuck again.

Any solution to this strange problem/phenomenon?

See picture below for view of where my Sam gets stuck.

Yes this is a bug in the game. Happens on real vintage PC as well:

Maybe walk the same way I did in my walkthough. Also you can quicksave the game at every point. Just save it on the ladder and then try various movements.

Yeah that's a tricky part, try moving from the left side, its possible to pass it but it might take some tries.

Many thanks for helpful tips!
I've now managed to (somehow) get past that stuck spot.
But it wasn't easy!
Phew.
And I didn't expect GOG-games to still have unsorted bugs...

I doubt they actually play the games that deep :)

While the game is patched to the latest version it seems that Ubisoft simply overlooked this one :)

Well they couldn't release all the games they do if they took the time out to fix every game themselves before releasing them.

Old Thread,but here's the solution. the best way to get past it, keep jumping and pressing w till he gets through after you get past quick save till the next checkpoint, once you are past the checkpoint make a fresh save file so you never have to play that section again
