Thank you for a great FM!

I've done most of the mission (including bank and optional tasks). But..

Spoiler

..it seems I'm missing something to get to Eaton manor (locked window, that I can't find a key for nor pick it) or St. Peter's Church (locked door on the left, after entering the church through balcony). Any hints how to proceed further? Thanks!

Welcome to the forum!

If memory serves, the key to the Eaton manor windows is

in the Troutbeck workshop. 

The other key is I think the crypt key, and I believe that is

Spoiler

in the Eaton manor.

If I have got that wrong, hopefully someone will put you right.

Hi @generationx

There is another way in. There is a readable in the apartment next door which provides a hint

Hi,

This might help

Spoiler

You need to get into the apartment before you can find the key to get out of it.

The door is not the only way in. 

More specifically 

Spoiler

The next door neighbour has an access to the attic that connects with Smythe's apartment

You get a hint in one of the readables. One of the tenants opposite of the security company might have what you need.

There is a readable in one of the bank offices upstairs that explains what's going on with the safes.

Version 1.1

It's been fixed in version 1.2, which is the latest version in the in-game downloader (or see direct download link in top post)

What about the savegame

To be honest I don't know. The map file itself has changed slightly. You can always try it, but I can't guarantee it will work.

I have done everything but I'd like to get the optional loot objective if possible. I'm pretty sure there's a lot of stuff in Eaton mansion since I can see a greenhouse-like room next to the study. I can even see a piece of loot (a golden statue,) but I don't know how to get there. It might be just a secret, but that piece of loot is very tantalizing. I have tried smashing the windows, looking for buttons and, on the corridor, what I assume are the doors to the place, but they are non-frobbale. A hint would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

PS: Oh, yeah, a great mission, by the way.

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?
