Alone In The Dark (floppy mac version) has a bug on Macintosh.js

[pasha06]

After collecting 5 items on cottage, the character was supposed to go down from stair but a bug prevented that. The character then go up to cottage instead due to this bug. This bug was called as stair bug. Anyone can fix this annoyance?. I cannot progress further if this bug won't f*cking be fixed.

I just managed to solve the "stair bug" on the Mac version of "Alone in the Dark". I found every time you SAVE the game, the game creates a new animation, and doesn't continue the old one.

So to solve the bug, all you need to do - is to SAVE the game while going down the stairs, and then LOAD the game, and after half of a second, SAVE the game again, and LOAD it again (practically you SAVE and LOAD frame after frame), until finally you will LOAD the game at the very end of the stairs, but now you will find the animation has stoped and the player won't go up again.

I have also added for you a SAVE FILE just after the stairs: SAVE0.zip

Enjoy!
