In the English version, the video where you first get the lantern has a different audio track in the DVD version than in the CD version. The subtitles are the same in both versions however, causing a slight discrepancy.
If you have both versions, you can safely substitute the DVD version's '''pe2em061.avi''' with the one from the CD version. Note that the CD version's video uses lower resolution, 320x172 pixels instead of 640x344.

  • From CD1, copy the zassets1 directory into the game root directory
  • From CD2, copy the zassets2 directory into the game root directory
  • It's recommended to apply patch 1.2, but you may have to install the game normally for that, as the patch has its own installer

Mac CD version

  • Copy the same files as for Windows CD version
  • Additionally copy from the zgi directory of CD1 into the game root directory:

Non-bugs

In the English version, the video where you first get the lantern has a different audio track in the DVD version than in the CD version. The subtitles are the same in both versions however, causing a slight discrepancy.

If you have both versions, you can safely substitute the DVD version's pe2em061.avi with the one from the CD version. Note that the CD version's video uses lower resolution, 320x172 pixels instead of 640x344.
