First of all, thank you so much for this project! That was the only way I could run Gothic 2 on Windows 10, although it's Steam version. My run was done on release v1.0.911. I am very familiar with this game, and this time decided to play as Dexterity-based Paladin bowman. Unfortunately though, there were some game-breaking experiences during the gameplay. You can find them below.

Addon world:

• Ladded (in the swamp) is not interactible (already reported).
• Temple of Adanos: Rademes does not appear in the final trap room with floor spikes.
• Cannot access normally under-water cave near to Malcom: when try to swim under-water through the passage, just fall onto the lake bottom as if there was no water at all.

Khorinis:

• Secret library room in the monastery, to where the Paladin player creates the teleport rune. First, Paladin's heavy armor does not appear on the table (although I finished all previous quests). Second, the room chest does not open, with any lock-picking combination.

General:

• Pick-axes weirdly disappear on attempt to use.
• Beliar claw does not seem to work constantly.
• Acrobatics animation is weird when you press "jump" without release.
• Acrobatics animation stops when your jump continues below the level of initial jumping point.
• When you use a teleport rune, the blue glow does not disappear and follows you all the time.
• Rings are being grouped in the inventory, which means you cannot equip two same rings.

Hi, @LeksiDor and thanks for feedback!

Those issue suppose to be fixed in 1035:

• Cannot access normally under-water cave
• Beliar claw does not seem to work constantly. - AFAIK in 911 the claw do damage, but visual was absent.
• When you use a teleport rune, the blue glow does not disappear and follows you all the time.

Secret library room in the monastery:

• Not 100% sure, but armor suppose to be inserted right at chapter 5 starts. Because HERO was not initialized, game script was not aware of your guild. Should be fixed now.
