Prince Of Persia The Forgotten Sands The Observatory Bug Fix
Observatory bug
To fix the in Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands , players typically need to limit the game's frame rate to 60 FPS , as running the game at higher refresh rates often prevents the puzzle lever from appearing. This softlock occurs because the game's physics and scripted events are tied to the frame rate, causing a "missing texture" or pedestal when the frame rate is uncapped. Core Solutions for the Observatory Bug
- Try lowering the Resolution and Texture Quality temporarily.
- Disable V-Sync (or enable it if it was off) to see if it forces a refresh of the game logic.

Your only options:
- Face the large central pillar where the rings are supposed to rotate.
- Look for a small ornamental ledge on the left side of the pillar, about one jump above ground level. It normally isn’t meant to be grabbed until the rings move.
- Perform a double jump from the nearby broken gear to grab this ledge.
- From that ledge, perform a wall run in a diagonal direction. You want to “glitch” your character slightly through the collision mesh of the central pillar.
- If done correctly, you will pop out on the other side of the pillar, bypassing the need for the rings.
- Once on the other side, follow the intended path up the walls. The game will eventually realize you are at the next checkpoint and trigger the next cutscene with Razia.
