Has anyone found the key the maid stole? Also in the peep hole area of the mansion has anyone found a way to open the door on the end?

:confused:

Found key. :laff:

[SPOILER]There's a small switch on the left, if you are where I think you are[/SPOILER] :)

I am getting a Darkloader error message to the effect that "17m1 is not a valid integer value" when I attempt to play this. Other missions are working OK.

Read my post above. :)

I had to extract the missm1.mis file to c:\, delete it from the zip file, rename the extracted file to miss17.mis, and then add it back to the zip file. It works fine now.

[spoiler] The end sequence seems to not be function properly...I got out of the trap but the dude in the Karass pajamas seems to want to tant me like I'm still in the trap. When I get his attention he wants to light me up with those exploding mech keys. I've tried gasing him and killing him slowly but I get no key and he does not appear to try to crush the girl or operate the console. Seems the end sequence needs some more fine tuning.[/spoiler]

[SPOILER]During his little speech, Talanvor says 'Here's the key' at this time, the key appears if you interupt him he won't give you the key, just like he says in his speech, do you want him or the girl, its very difficult to have bothThe mission is still a complete sucsess whether you get talanvor or not.The only reason to get Talanvor is for your own person satisfaction and if you can do this and get the girl fine. But no where in the objectives are you told to get Talanvor [/SPOILER] once again I am uploading (to fix the bad filename,)

Don't feel bad about the bugs, Dyald. If making fanmissions were easy, I would have posted my first by now. :sweat:

Maybe you could spoiler us exactly how the cage scene is supposed to go? Maybe I am doing (or not doing) something that keeps it from executing properly. I never got a speech or a key.

[spoiler] he does not go into any kind of speech...he just walks out of his secret room and over to the trap and starts looking mad and yelling "stand and be crushed." He's acting like a "confused" AI that can see garrett but can not get to him.

And when I said above "like I'm still in the trap." I mean ...I'm over on the other side of the room and he's still acting like i'm still inside the trap. He only turned around because I wacked him with by BJ.[/spoiler]

Thanks john9818a!! I never noticed the naming error in the zip.

[SPOILER]Here is how I planned it, You get trapped, listen to the speach, Talanvor runs away,you get out ,stop the block from falling by pushing the correct button, the girl faints, you get the key, open the lock, pick up the girl, go home. (The bad guy is actually deaf and blind)[/SPOILER] I am trying to change things to make this a little less confusing.
BTW If you were able to get that far without the use of the moss arrows, then you are truly a master thief.
