RE4 Remake Lithographic Stone Puzzle Not Working Fix

The Lithographic Stone puzzle is one of the most confusing sections in Resident Evil 4 Remake, and players need help solving it. Worst of all, many people claim that it doesn’t work for them at all. But if that’s the case, then they won’t be able to progress and complete the game. So, here’s how you can solve the bug that the lithographic puzzle door won’t open in this game.

How to fix lithographic stone puzzle not working in RE4 Remake

There are basically two reasons why this puzzle might not work for you. And they are:

• You may be solving the puzzle incorrectly: fix it by placing the pills as shown in the image above.
• The game files may be corrupted: try restarting the game or scan its files.

For most players, this is the first problem. So double or triple check if you are solving the puzzle correctly. Here are both ways to fix it.

How to solve the lithographic puzzle in Resident Evil 4 Remake

To solve the lithographic stone puzzle in this game, you need to collect all the tablets and place them in the correct position. You need to match the symbol, color and shape of each side with the stone tablet. Below is the solution to this puzzle:

• Above: an orange shield inside a square.
• Left: orange helmet inside a hexagon.
• Bottom: Dark purple armor inside a hexagon.
• Right: dark purple sword inside a square.

You can find each pill in the following locations:

• Lithographic stone tablet A: already placed in the puzzle.
• Lithographic Stone Tablet B: On the bookshelf near the puzzle door.
• Lithographic Stone Tablet C: On the table next to the bookshelf in the southern part of the room.
• Lithographic Stone Tablet D: Inside the cabinet in the lower left corner of the room. Break the glass to get it.

Collect the pills and place them in the above order and the door will open. Make sure you place them correctly, because until you place them in the correct position, the door will not open.

Stone puzzle not working, bug fix

• Restart the game: Try restarting the game to see if that helps. You will lose some progress, but solving the puzzle this time should help open the lithographic stone door.
• Check File Integrity: There is a chance that you are experiencing this issue due to corrupted files. Back up your save and scan the game files from Steam. Once this is over, the corrupted files should be replaced and your puzzle should now work.
• Contact Capcom if you are sure the door is bugged and the problem is not yours. Take a screenshot of your door with the same puzzle solution and contact Capcom. They should help you fix it, or if it’s a problem for other users as well, they should release an update to fix it.

That’s all you need to do to solve the lithographic puzzle door that doesn’t open in Resident Evil 4 Remake.
