  1. I must say, this is an awesome mission!! ;) Back in 2013 I was not playing Zombie missions at all. Took years to get they're scary shit out of my head. Now I just target with water arrows to torches. Got all 4 holy water left, probably more around somewhere.

    So, I got as far as the colored torch fountains. Got the tome, thought that would say something. Is there a

    Spoiler

    color code sequence in lighting them? & what happens?

    Any hints please. Gotten so far without help...

    I need help finding the evidence room in Part 2 of VFAT. I had to quit Part 1 because I was having trouble getting

    the Tear from the picture

    . Tried everything.

    So I'm now playing Part 2, and I can't find the

      Hide contents

    Evidence Room so I can get my gear before leaving the jail

     

    Can someone please help?

    I wonder if I should do the same for now? Jump to 2. I mean I don't have a 3. Oh yeah, can download that later.

    Nope, a few more minutes later & I finished 1. I'm at my house in mission 2 right now. Dinner break ;)

    Just a curious question. It's been 6 years and a pandemic. Anyone ever put the whole campaign together into one big playable file / game?

    While the whole wiki links are a mess, the list helped a lot with different time frames of my life. I could back track (12 years or so) to see which FM's I have missed over the years. Downloading them from that list is a no go. However, if you manually search for each and every one in the forums you will find the author & ask them for a new link to their FM. It's worked so far :) A lot of the author's links are also way out of date or on places that don't exist any more. Google drive seems to be getting more popular for downloading fm's it seems. More google accounts, since way back then ;) 

  3. So guys, I need a little help too. I managed piecing these 2 fm's together somehow. Really a stroke of luck. There's a 3rd one?

    In Angel's Tear (the 1st one).

    I got the

    Spoiler

    Captain's key, Luciles key, but I can't find the room it unlocks. It's supposed to be part of the puzzle with the 3 keys right?

    The 3rd one I don't get. I followed the lord from his office, to the library & back again to his office (that was a ways). No mention or hint on where that

    Spoiler

    secret room with the key

    may be :(

    Thought he'd lead the way to some place he'd check on. In his office he only goes up to the bust, turns around & continues on his walk, muttering things about me - the thief.  If only I could knock him out...

    One more question. The tear. I've looked everywhere. Thought it would be in the

    Spoiler

    secret place

    in the observatory. If I had that

    Spoiler

    lift

    it would be down there somewhere ;)

    Has anyone been able to ghost my mission? I never could, so I'm thinking maybe it's too hard on expert.

    Glad you brought that up. I have never ghosted a mission (successfully), so I would appreciate a hint on the blackjack or pan or broomstick or whatever. Not really into the sword either, but no BJ I won't get far. Luckily, I just found the

    coal chute, 

    so I'm in the basement. 2 water arrows & torches everywhere. Where do I go to look for it? & never mind, the

    armory

    key & sum arrows really persuaded me to keep going :) 

    but now the game crashed :(  I was up on the second floor in a room with a maiden sleeping. Was sneaking up to her to knock her out & it just went straight to desktop. I'm gonna restart & try again.

  5. I did that whole series. I was just wondering, since the text also says to play 'In The North' 1st. Before Braeden. May as well write the whole series 1st then. Logically it should fit between part 1 & 2, WS 1.5 :rolleyes: I already started Braeden anyway...

    I guess you're misreading the Wiki description for Braeden Church, which says:

    This means "Braeden Church is not part of any series". It is not referring to In The North, which certainly is part of the William Steele series and is listed in the downloader along with all of the other WS missions.

    Aha...

  7. Didn't Komag have a tutorial to get you going on the right track or was that for Thief 2? I opened DR & the user guide, but I'm at a loss. I have totally forgotten how the whole thing works. :rolleyes: I know someone had a tutorial for DR. I built a room and hallway, put some torches & furniture in, made Garrett's starting point. Stuff like that. Brushes & skyboxes. But when it came to flowing water that old system crashed over & over, so I gave up (10 years ago). Water was very important to that mission idea. This time not so much. Just one olympic size pool with a greek backdrop :) Filling it should be interesting this time around. If that works I'll also put in the horse fountain, if I can ask for help in creating it. It was bronze with 4 horses & stuff. There's a pic of it at the Newburgh library in New York. Well, back in 1987. It got 'lost', the fountain itself. My butt, it either got melted down or put up somewhere else. The thing was like 6 tons alI in all. Doubt it's online. Was gonna try to find the blueprints to the mansion in some historical place. It was built 1774. It's gone now. They tore it all down & built condos. Luckily I got photo-memory, so I remember the whole lay out as if I was there yesterday. Back in 1992 I built a 'smaller' scale bird house of the main house & the 4 wings. The birds liked it :rolleyes:

  8. So, I see I never finished this due to my car accident back in 2016. Went to Sweden right after and forgot about the mission until now. Restarted the whole FM, due to an update somewhere & after 5 years I had forgotten the whole layout. Still I get stuck in the big generator/boiler room.

    I took out everyone, even the captain, so I can explore without being disturbed. I'm in the basement with a bunch of generators/boilers, but where do I find the crypt?

    I did a save before jumping down to the study & getting the

    key

    . I thought this was what started the zombies, so I backed up & thought I'd explore every aspect before letting them loose. So if I kill the

    , I avoid Zombies? I really hate Zombies!

    Any help would be greatly appreciated :) 

  9. To think I was here back in 2011 and never finished that ambitious Bamburger Castle (UK) FM. But now, I,m gonna give it another try with a smaller mansion (out of the Hudson Valley in New York) instead :) 

    Just gotta finish The Painter's Wife 1st. That FM is huge!! :D

    She's in a small apartment, IIRC in Upper St. - Marlow's 4th letter gives a hint, too. I always find it by going to the central Builder tower next to Lord Harrington's, then go north/east.

     

    The assassin,

    NE of there would be Pendly Estates

    right? I can't find any other

    apartments

    on the map in that direction.

    There's a locked door on the corner of Arch Way & Lower Street. Where's the key for that?

    Also there's a pole sign that says Tower Street & something with an A, but it's not on the map, it's in the pumphouse area, spun me around a bit until I found the Bridge Street sign on the wall lol

    Oh yeah, the gambling den. Which building was that in again?

    I'm at the pumphouse. Gonna try and find that chapel again, after I text Biker :) I need to talk to him anyway. You know if he's busy with anything?

    That's actually happened in many TDM FM's for me. Sometimes when they are sleeping and you shoot them in the face they squiggle all over like fish out of water. You gotta pick them up real quick or the game crashes. I can't seem to BJ them on the twin beds, just the big beds. Gotta climb up on the bed and lean forward. Bunk beds are the worst. 

    ** Ended up  using the fire arrow on the guard with the anti-arrow helmet on the streets. He was the last armed guard left on any of the streets. Got Lily home ok :)

    BTW, the abbot up in the healing tower. Arrows just bounce off his face. I know I'd fail the mission, but just say'n...

    That sounds like a problem with the core game. If you can get this to happen repeatedly, maybe also in other FMs, it'd definitely be worth bringing it up in its own thread in the forums.
