    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.

    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. 

  2. OOps, didn't need to hide all of that. 

    Also, there's a locked door in the gambling den. Anyone know where the key is? I knocked everybody out in there.

    Oh, and the assassin, where is she again? Can't find any text on that in my inventory, but I know I read it or heard it somewhere in the game.

    One more thing, Lilly. Where do I bring her? The guy on the balcony at the Lion's inn is gone. Would that be

    apartment?

    What's the fire arrow for?

  3. I read somewhere that I'm supposed to go under the

    Spoiler

    pumphouse to get to the buried chapel

    . I was just there & I got all the way down in the cistern too, but found the secret under the

    Spoiler

    basement, in the cavern. That looks like a place a chapel

    could be buried, but no luck there.

    Thought I'd report a little bug down in that

    cavern with the 2 spiders. In the pool where the dead guy lay,

    when walking on the bottom of the pool, thinking I'd walk up the edge, but no. I go through the slope and into space. There's even stars there. Thought I was closer to finding that

    Can I get a spoil on where in the pumphouse area I go to get to the

    ?

    You'll need to follow an invisible path - look closely at the ceiling for guidance.

    That sounds like the key Marlow's carrying on his belt (unless this was removed in an update). I don't believe it's necessary, anyway: you need to find a way into the secret paths behind the walls. The easiest way is by going to the spiral staircase next to hostage room and pulling on the slightly loose oil lamp. This will also lead behind the turbine.

     

    Thankyou for that. I feel like such an idiot. I didn't even see the oil lamp up there...hehe

    I gotta ask though. In the vent tunnel, across from the generator there's a room with a hovering solid black box that is not frobable. What is that there for?

    Out front of the manor there are 2 guards. 1 arrow proof face & the other not. The one without got shot in the face just now & he dies, but then the screen flashes black & the game crashes. Didn't even have time to save...

    Gonna reboot & try again, gotta clear the streets for Lilly & I :). There's no roof walks with her on my back lol

    This mission was a handfull. Took me over 4 hours to finnish it with 5k in loot and all the objectives done, but I loved most of it. Verry reminiscent of Deadly Shadows open city, but made arguably better in most aspects. I loved traversing the rooftops, the sights were gorgeous and I am suprised the site didn't feature better screenshots.

    I did encounter one bug. In the area where the mask is there is a small floating ile with the tent and goldsack. Once returning I clipped trough stone and was unable to jump.

     

    That happened to me to. Didn't find no

    Spoiler

    gold sack

    either. The last stone when leaving the campsite. I jumped onto it and instead of being able to jump off, the rock passed through me (since it's moving) & finally I fell into space. Luckily I save all the time, so didn't lose too much, but then I backed up all the way before entering the twilight zone because I can't figure out how to get to the altar after the fire chamber ?? Do you remember? And how do I get back to the city?

  6. So, I backed up to an earlier save. Right before entering the other dimension in the bizarre library. I couldn't wait, I really Love this FM. It's so BIG :)  I'll go back to that again later.

    Anyway, in Marlow's Manor, in the basement. I need help locating a key that goes to the door (above the room where the painter's wife is being held hostage), I'm guessing that's where the

    Spoiler

    secret passage is that leads into the blocked off room. Read about a key on the wall

    in the basement somewhere, but I can't find it.

    In the Machine Room, after turning off the turbine I noticed a frobable vent behind it. I can't get to it since the turbine is in the way, but how do I get into that wall from another way?

    I've done a lot more exploring, gotten a little lost, picked up some shiny objects, and found some bugs:

    on my second attempt at the temple/firetrap in tiny world, the water went vertical: (attached)painterswife_2020-07-08_20.41.38.jpg

    when picking up the mask from the statue in the tiny world, I got a BOOP noise; I've heard it when unsuccessfully trying to KO AI as well.

    the thieves in their hideout are unusually heavy, like trying to drag large crates.

    I'm missing prompts for some very obvious bonus things, or seeing ways of entry for others:

      Hide contents

    I found an assassin; someone must have a note about fearing or hiring her, but where?

    there was a note of frustration about the clock tower being off-time, but how do I get into it?

     

    Oh wait, the water isn't supposed to do that? Mine is the same, but I got passed it & passed the fire chamber, but what do I do in the altar room, to get across to the altar?

  8. Wow, I never finished this one last year. Couldn't find my way around this huge map. I like what you've done with the in-game map in the update. I remember the old one, couldn't see anything. Good Job!!

    I need a spoiler.

    Spoiler

    I was in the bizarre library with the case that sends you to another dimension with orbiting rocks & a blue fireball temple.

    So after that I RUN thru the fire chamber (took some serious damage) and into the altar room, I see the 2 unlit torches & I'm thinking fire arrows, but what if you only have 1 ?? How do I cross that gap?

    Most likely it is the following bug in TDM 2.09:

    It did not cause problems with old FM database, because it did not expose checksums.
    With the switch to new database, this is a big problem now.

    Most likely, the update was reverted, i.e. the downloaded file was deleted automatically.
    I'm afraid trying again won't help: it will display the same warning and delete the downloaded FM again.

    You can do one of the following:

    1. Download pk4 file directly and put it into fms directory.
    2. Wait for hotfix release to fix this problem. We are going to release it in the nearest days.

    Nah I'm good. I'll wait. I got 3 other TDM missions I seem to have missed. You should direct people to ttlg.de 's site. They have an extensive FM library as well. Google has a translator now. Good to know since the whole site is in German. The translator box pops up to the upper right when you enter the site. You gotta do this every page you visit, but so worth it. Tried registering there, but something is not letting me. Tried their e-mail, but it came back, so I don't know about that part. 

  10. I don't know where to put technical stuff when it comes to the in-game downloader/installer, but since it has to do with the FM's, well you guys move it if need be :)  I tried downloading the updated version of The Siege Shop, but I got a pop-up with something went wrong and I should contact the admin. Didn't catch the whole note cuz it disappeared really quick. It did not download either way.

    I got a question. When you download an updated FM, does it automatically replace the 1st version? You got to start again right or can you go where you left off? I found some double copies of games that have updates, but I just updated Snowed Inn & there's only one copy of that on the list.

  11. To stumble across this FM exactly 9 years 1 month after it was released. I don't get how I missed so many missions over the years. Just started the mission and I really don't want to read a bunch of spoilers to find the lock-picks. Got the house & basement keys. Anyone remember where they are?

    *So, I did start reading the posts. Ahh, there are no lock-picks & no Killing. That would explain why I didn't try it way back then. Didn't master the BJ in TDM for the longest, but now I'm gonna give it a shot. Why not.

  12. All this free time really got me to explore all the missions I've somehow missed. Like the Accountant 1 & 2. Got through 1 without getting stuck, but not this one lol.

     I don't know how/where to proceed. I'm in the building (1st floor) where the broken elevator is. Went back up the vent to find the 'vent note' & back to the start, but I can't find anyway out of these 2 buildings connected to each other with the vent duct. Please help. 

  13. So I ended up taking the elevator up without scroll

    . Got to the tomb. Found all the secrets & stuff in there. Desmond's hideout is topside right? Found my way out, but the forest is so thick. I don't remember which way lol

    Found a glitch here. When climbing up the rope arrow up to the tree branch I turned to fetch the arrow and land on the edge. Instead, I can get the arrow, but I'm still hanging on to an invisible rope. Can't climb up or down, but I can jump off.

    sorry, it is rare that people are playing and posting at the same time! I've completed the mission (thank you) and I think @Acolytesix is close

    pagan scrolls:

    in same caves as the stone tile puzzle

    on elevated boards in meteorite cavern? someone please confirm

    back of meteorite cavern, through underwater passage (also a secret)

    in facility cold storage

    I will wait to post secrets until someone needs help, so people can experience the joy of discovery :)

    Yeah please confirm #2 :) I really hated that whole zombie tower thing. Trying to keep my fire arrows for the "tomb". The zombies really suck at walking into mines, actually, that would be a good place to start now then. Got the tablets.

    But wait, just remembered the elevator. I gotta do the zombie tower 1st then. Please confirm scroll #2...

  15. What am I missing? Found scroll 3 & 4. Where is 1 & 2? Is it one or both of them that won't complete an objective if I take the elevator up & blow up the tunnels? If not where is, what I'm missing? I'm guessing the one will be in the

    area? Haven't been there yet.

    I'm gonna give it a rest for tonite. Will play more tomorrow :)

    it really was right there 🙄 I still have trouble with obvious stuff in Dark Mod, like the facility door switches and buttons and stuff.

    Scroll #4 is where you mentioned, Acolytesix; #1 is in the open underground; not sure where 2 & 3 are yet.

    I used the stone, but that didn't open as large a path as I thought it would. I still need to

    discover what happened to the staff & find the service elevator key

    What exactly did the fuses power? was it supposed to be the freight elevator? if so, I was able to use it before activating the generator

    You'll see the service key. It's next to a dead human.  Don't think you can miss it 😜

  17. Found the fuses. Now I'm finding Runes

    to be exact. I looked up at the zombie tower with the hovering rock & thought,

    4 bridges, 1 the way over, 3 sticking out. Ran through all the caves and caverns 1st before going up there.

    Hope you saved your water arrows ;) 

    I am actually stuck up in the zombie tower where there are the 3 images of

    runes.

    How do I mount them?

    Or what do I do here? It was scary as F to get up here!!

    I think you lost him 😉

     

    game problems: I also experienced the crash at a certain switch; I found some vent grates very hard to get past and fell down an objective-relevant ladder a few times (had to noclip both). I heard another 'audio missing' beep when opening the freight elevator door (coming up from the lower floor).

     

    progression problems: I found a

    flower rune stone and an alabaster key near the scanner;

    where do I use the key, and where do I find the matching stone?

    Literally right next to it.

    Leaning on the right side of scanner

    where you found the other one... Tricky :) 

    The key goes in the

    A scroll is in there. Guessing all 4 can be found with the same key.

    The mission includes at least five or six fire arrows and the same amount of highly explosive mines.

    I have to admit, some of them are a little bit hidden.

    For example, the first arrow can already be found in the first room where you have the two cameras guarding the vertical double door. After you have deactivated both cameras, just go back on the grating in the middle  and examine the bottom of the iron cage that blocks the way...

     

     

    Yeah, I found those when back tracking :)
