Hi Guys.
I tried to work out my problems without contacting you, but to no avail.
I am playing 'The Longest Journey' which I purchased from GOG and I have a problem getting into the Police Station.
Every time I try the game crashes, I have tried various compatibility settings but none work satisfactorily.
I have been informed that if I 'move barrier from road and get into the garbage container' it will skip that scene, if this is right can someone please tell me how to do it.
Thanks in anticipation.

This is from an old post on GameBoomers, a workaround from someone who was having the same problem that you are:

Quote:
I tried the garbage bin first but couldn't figure out how to move the barricade so I went up the stairs and talked to the cop. I had to go back to the barricade and finally moved it after reading the street sign.


Let us know if this helps.

Thanks Marian.
I appreciate your help, I couldn't speak to the cop as the game crashes as soon as I get to the top of the stairs, so I missed that bit out and went back to the street and read the signs.
Having done that I managed to get into the police station and at that point I have left the game and will carry on with it tomorrow.
Thanks again.
kingpin.

I hope you can successfully carry on with the game now. The other advice that I am reading is to make sure you have done everything you need to do in the police station before you leave the police station. luck
