Game: Eye of the Beholder 1
Problem: There is no "silver key" in the beginning of the Level 2, but it has to be there according to the official Clue Book:
"Locations and Events:
1 . There is a ladder on the west wall
leading up to level 1, location 19, as well".
How to reproduce: create a random party, start a game & finish Level 1, then go to Level 2 & find yourself before 3 closed doors.

    "1 . There is a ladder on the west wall
    leading up to level 1, location 19, as well
    as a silver key lying on the ground."

    Unfortunately we can't reproduce these bugs, neither with Windows nor Linux. There aren't any mouse pointers showing up in the inventory and the key in Level 2 is right where it is supposed to be.

    Maybe this is a problem with the game data. What game version do you have? Where did you get it?

    I have no such issue with my game version. I get a silver key on the ground when starting that level.

    The OP has mentioned on IRC that he has obtained this game via an illegal download:
    http://logs.scummvm.org/log.php?log=scummvm.log.10Jan2015&format=html

    This looks to be an issue with that specific pirated version. We do not support pirated versions, so I suggest we close this bug report as "Won't fix".

    Since this is one of the spots where the game copy protection kicks in, perhaps this version is somehow cracked, and this messes up the location of the silver key?
