I fear I am permanently stuck in a small area between The Gate of the Ancients and The Pits.
See attached picture of where I am in the game. Reading some walkthroughs, it seems the wall I am looking at is NOT supposed to be here. It is possible I did not press some button before going into this area and now am forever stuck here because of it. My older saves are in this area, too, so, loading an older save is not possible.
I can go down a level into The Pits into the area where the Wolf Key, Poison Resistance Ring, and Magickal Shield are located, but my only way up leads me to this dead end area.
Is there a way out? I checked every wall for possible push-throughable walls, checked every wall for buttons, and used Afri's Orb to see any possible ways through that I had missed. Is there a button I missed?
If nothing else is possible, and I am truly stuck here forever, is there a way to edit savegame files to place me in a different level? Maybe a way to have my character start somewhere else? a noclip cheat? I searched the 5 pages or so here and no one else has had this issue of a wall being here. Again, all walkthroughs say to just walk right through where I am now as if there was not a wall there.

You missed the button that moves that wall. Check the attached pic for the location of the button.
In the area of the Pits that you can get to from where you are there are two buttons, one restores full vitality the other apparently doesn't do anything. Just for the hell of it, try that aparently useless one and than get back up to see if the wall is still there.
I don't know about cheats but i think you can edit Stonekeep's saves with something called Universal Game Editor and a Stonekeep UGE module
You can get UGE from here but i have no idea how it works. There's a UGE module for Stonekeep [url=http://www.cheathappens.com/show_download.asp?ID=1057]here.
Edit: I don't know how much you explored, but if you already have Safrinni's Orb maybe you can use it to get out of that area, as it allows you to rise up through pits, and i think there's a pit (down in The Pits) to the far right you could use to get back up to the Gates in a different area that the one you're stuck in.

It does nothing. I tried messing around with both the buttons... no joy.

YESSSSS! I had never heard of this before, but it worked like a charm! Thank You!! The GOG forums are the BEST! All I had to do was modify my starting coordinates and I started on the other side of the wall! Awesome! Weeeeee!

Nope... I didn't have Safrinni's Orb yet. My newest orb was Helion's Orb, gathered from the dead Ice Queen's body.
thanks again for the reply! Couldn't have been more helpful!!

Hey I'm in the exact same spot that you were stuck in. I got both of those UGE files and read how to use it but I just can't figure out where to type my coordinates? Could you maybe take a screenshot of your screen while that screen is up with the cooridinates you used? I know it's been five years since this thread but this is the only thing I can find on this and I have no other saves and I really don't want to have to start my whole game over. Please help!
