How do I find the credits room? I've done all the other objectives. I just wanna see it before I finish this one.:p

I am stuck :sweat: I have completed all the objectives except for the loot and Finding the tomb ( I am playing on normal). I have been in every building and even the well, but can't seem to find one besides the little one behind the barn where I found the "key to ???".
Can someone please help me so I can finish.

Finished this one last night. Wow, great job on the forrest cottage atmosphere! Nice technical features, too. Overall a very good mission.
Some things that keep it from being a really great mission:
1. Oversized plants that you can't walk through were annoying.
2. Frob distance was too short sometimes. There were a few object that I could see, but couldn't get close enough to frob. I was constantly worried about getting stuck trying to get close enough to pick something up.
3. The atmosphere was somewhat tainted by the translation. Jericho, if you read this, I REALLY appreciate your translation work, but next time, I urge you to enlist the help of a native English speaker to help you with your translations before release. The best translations come from people that are native in the target language. I speak from experience since my wife has been a professional English->German translator for 8 years. I'm quite sure there are a LOT of people on this forum that would be happy to help. You also said that you had not played the mission, so maybe the lack of context was a contributor.

Timon, thanks for a great mssion :)!
Brian, about the "tainted translation", um, do we REALLY know that Garrett and his folks in Garrettland speak English as their native language ...? :sly:

No, and it doesn't matter. This mission is fairly complex with all of the objectives, and the books and scrolls are very important. All I'm saying is that this mission would have been a lot better with a better translation, and my guess is that the original version in the author's native language is a lot better due to subtleties in the texts.
Again, I do sincerely appreciate the translator's efforts, for without them, I would not have been able to play the mission at all.

I thought I would go back and see if I could find all the loot. Two game-hours later, I have found another 30 in 6 coins, bringing my total to 5050, 100 short. The 30 includes three coins mentioned by ShadowWolf[SPOILER]in the window sill of the second floor of the lumberjacks' house[/SPOILER] and I found three coins that to me were pretty tough[SPOILER]in a storage shed south of the house, climb on some large crates and jump to the rafters. Work your way to the opposite end of the building on the rafters. Find a moss arrow, a water arrow, and three coins at the end.[/SPOILER] I am thinking the missing item could be a ring in the water, but I have searched pretty well. Found one such ring during original play[SPOILER]in the sewer with the seven spiders,[/SPOILER]but that is all. I found a loose flute that goes into inventory separately. Could this be a loot bug and should it be worth 100? Anyone know of any other tricky loot worth 100? I don't think I could be missing 20 coins.

I found some loot [SPOILER]next to the fire & chessboard[/SPOILER] but I can't frob it - anyone able to frob it?
I'm curious how others deal with Constance. Without water arrows/holy water, all I seem left with is a temporary bash job with the sword.
Oh well, back to building these PCs.
