:D I have just mailed my new fm Ashcourt to the cheap missions site, so I hope it will be hosted soon.
This was to be part 3 of the coalport series, but as part2 still has a few issues my testers suggested that it might be a good idea to release it as a stand alone mission.
It takes place underground and because of this I was able to take certain liberties wih DromEd and had no problem with lag.
There is one outside area, which might give one or two graphic cards possibly the slightest lag, but I ran it at 35fps so it should be fine.
Some of the switches are WELL hidden so no death threats please (I'm running out of hiding places).
Have fun because thats what its all about:thumb:
My thanks go to my testers: sluggs, The_Pixie, ffox ,Nightwalker and Dink Smallwood. None of this is possible with out them.

Oh how exciting is this? I'm trying to save my other recently downloaded game until after May 31st when I finish my oral vista and my final exam at uni...I can't wait! Many happy hours of uninterrupted game playing with NO guilt attached...an extra bonus!

forgive my ignorance but what was the other part to this series besides "Coalport" ?
ffox on 6/5/2006 at 19:29
Not was but will be. It will probably be called "Portisco Head". Just started beta.

[SPOILER]I have broken the boards beneath the elevator and swam through the under water tunnels and come up in a sort of well but cannot get out [/SPOILER] what am I missing?

@Steelman
[spoiler]Tried the lockpicks at the door right to the well?[/spoiler]

Steelman, if you mean you can't get out of the well, you need to back up a little bit before climbing out

Excellent mission, well balanced and beautiful attention to detail e.g. the dripping bottle in one of the guards' room. There are no excessivle hard riddles (except maybe one - see below) and hints are well placed and reasonably interpretable (again, except maybe one - see below).
Just one minor point: The hint scroll for the theater vault is probably not quite as obvious for non-British. I could still solve it with the help of good old Mr. Google.
