Smythe's apartment. 

I'm guessing you haven't been there yet.

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

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.

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      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
