Is it just me or does anybody else have had this Problem:

On the "The river and the islands" Map on Gipath where you have to use the "mechanism" to lower the bridges I've got a strange problem:

1 - The big bridge in the north can not be crossed. I've already used the "mechanism" to lower it - but I simply cannot cross the bridge. All I get is a red "X marks the spot" and a "I cannot go to there" phrase from Zak.

2 - The bridge in the north-west side is working fine. After lowering, it can be crossed. But only to get stuck on one of the small isles: There is a boardwalk which can't be crossed. Same situation as 1: A red "X marks the spot" and a "I cannot go to there" phrase from Zak.

So effectively I can not advance in game any further. I got stuck.

The second screenshot is from another savestate. But same problems on both. Any solutions for this ?

€dit:

I suppose there could be a faulty map file inside the recent GOG installer version. I can not remember having this problem back in 2003. I'd like to try to replace the GOG map files with the map files from CD 1.06 Version to see if this will solve the Problem.

But I don't have the CD anymore ... :(

I figured out what the problem was ! As I supposed, there were damaged (bugged) map files. I had the chance to obtain a copy of the retail disc from ... sources ... xD

Replaced the map folder which came with the GOG installer with the map folder from the (patched 1.06) retail disc. In the end this procedure solved my problem.

Now I'd like to verify these results. Therefore I need your help. Please post the MD5 or SHA1 from all of your files inside the map folder.

That's an interesting bug! I vaguely remember I had a scripting issue in the Necropolis with a retail 1.06 when I needed to poison that... crab roach thing, and had to restart... either the mission or the game, I can't quite remember.

However, I don't quite understand what you want to do. You have both the GoG and the retail versions, so you can calculate the checksums of both of them on your own. The checksums of what version of the game do you need?

Also, albeit unlikely, could this possibly be some kind of interference with your proposed way to translate the game into German? E.g., perhaps the "lever" object that lowers the bridge has a different internal name in the German version, so it "broke" the game script?
