level 9 game breaking bug.

[DuncanPerham]

im on level 9, been running about for hours like a headless chicken unable to proceed. Eventually I accept that I can not see a way forward and search for a walk through.

"18: Press the Button on the wall to open the Steel Door. On the shelf you’ll find a Book of Infinite Wisdom. When you take it the walls around this central area will raise up. Stand on the Pressure Plate, red dot shown on the map, to open the western door. Don’t forget to pick up the Sulphurous Potion from the shelf before you continue."

(The centre area of the dungeon)...alas the walls never raised up hence why i was unable to proceed any further. So now the game is unplayable as i can not proceed any further, previous save was on level 6.... :(.

Game is vanilla no mods.

This is 1 alcove / shelf. There are 2 others, making it 3 in total.
The catch here is:all 3 alcoves / shelfs have to be EMPTY before those walls can rise.

i see, i might have thrown something onto the shelf, i will go and have a look, thank you for your help.

...and sure enough I had thrown a scroll onto one of the shelves... i would never have worked that out.
