Okays, I patched the game (1.2) and then replaced 2 files to disable CD demand. Patch seemed to work properly untill I again defeated Bach, when I jumped to the boat - I ended back to the windows. Needless to say I am pissed.

I want to explore here what are my possibilities exactly?

I heard you talking about some console (cheat console I guess). Can I "teleport" myself somehow to the next location? Any other ideas? If console is the solution tell me how to activate it?

Heeeelp

This is the famous Society of Leopold crash bug. I thought the patch fixed it? (I played the game pre-patch). The equally famous workaround endorsed by Activision themselves is, yes, to cheat past it.
