I'm back from vacation. Yaaay.
And now I can get to business. First of all the problems you are having actually playing the game (not including bugs). I sent KoMaG a walkthrough but obviously he didn't get it or he would be able to help you along with a complete loot list. I took a long time in writing it so that none would have problems during the game. Now I'm wondering how to make it available to everyone. I'll see if homestead works.
But for now it seems you wish to know some secrets. I guess no one has found the secret password and I doubt anyone will (look near the firestone area if you still want it). So here are the secrets that will make you nearly invincible.
<BLOCKQUOTE><FONT size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, sans-serif">Spoiler:</font><DIV STYLE="background-color:#000080"><FONT color="#000080"> To get the blackjack upgrade go to the room by the front gate of the mansion near Baneson's room. You will see a large stone cross above you. Look at the torch on the wall. to the left of it is an invisible ladder. Simple jump towards the wall until you land on it and climb up. At the top the blackjack upgrade awaits you. I'll let you figure out what it does.
To get inside the foofie HQ go to the hall connected to the town square, leading to the town hall. Behind the last arch is a switch. Hit it and crawl inside the grassy tunnel connected to the town square.
For some seriously cool items (quotes scroll, super healer, star of speed) go inside the church right behind the town hall. All you have to do is put out the torches with your water arrows. Then go to the pedestal and under it a secret passageway will be opened.
Look behind one of the podiums in the church and you will see a switch. Hit the switch and a dark minion will appear in the hallway of the church.
Go to the courtyard with the many statues, found right after the caves. Look behind the tree near the cross-window and hit the switch there. Now go inside the room with the cross-window and you will find an interesting guard.</FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE>
As for the problem with entering the water room I'm not sure what is causing it, but entering that room is not necessary to complete the mission. It could just be that somehow or another the water has the firestim property. Or it just might be a major bug.
Belboz- thanks for looking into that for me...but after redoing all the room brushes and having it crash I'm not really looking foward to fixing them up again. It would take quite a lot of fixing I think and I'm not feeling up to it.
NCP- How did you get on the roof of the town hall? I didn't intend it to be possible.
And when it comes to beating Monroe NCP has the right idea. Sneak along the wall. I never needed to create a diversion even since he should die with one hit of the fire sword, but if it helps then go right on after it.
Without the firesword it is impossible to kill him. You journey for it starts when you pull the big lever right after the invisible walkway surrounded by electricity. There are quite a few specific notes telling you what to do in order to get it. It was very clearly outlined in the walkthrough, which I will work on distributing after I finish this post.

By the way KoMaG. Thanks for the pictures and for placing it on your site. If you want you could try making the low quality breifing only available to others. Even if I didn't give it to you seperately. Just simply take it out of the mission zip that contains the low quality briefing. Its right under the movies file. Anyhow its you decision, I just want everyone to see it because it's so cool.
Now the loot list and walkthrough is available in one zip right here: (

If that doesn't work try here: (

Once again the walkthrough is very specific and explains a lot that you might not understand. (I also added a little humor for your reading pleasure).

Sharga, thanks for all those secrets! I'm going to go back and check 'em out while I still have the mission installed. <BLOCKQUOTE><FONT size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, sans-serif">Spoiler:</font><DIV STYLE="background-color:#000080"><FONT color="#000080">I found Foofie HQ, and it was a blast! Thanks for giving me a burrow and even throwing in a 'shroom-toss pavilion! :D
How did I get on the roof? Well, I was able to scramble up onto the wall in one of the corners and from there I was able to move about, knock out a couple of upper-story guards and jump onto the town hall roof, among other things.</FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE>
I really enjoyed Mansion of Chaos. It was a big and diverse level, full of entertaining stuff. I enjoyed the humorous touches. I played through it twice on Expert. The first time through, I only had one crash. The second time through, I had none. Good news for me, but alas, some other people are having a lot of problems. :(

This is good to hear. As a matter of fact I don't think anyone that has loaded the new version has had enough problems to make them stop playing.
I better go back and remove those old links then. Hopefully those who played it and had problems will be willing to give it a second chance. :)

Sharga, that's a great mission with many surprises! But now after 3hours of playing I stuck.<BLOCKQUOTE><FONT size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, sans-serif">Spoiler:</font><DIV STYLE="background-color:#000080"><FONT color="#000080">I have the fire sword,I was in the room with the unusual object and I touched it, but where is the damned opened door? Not in my game ! Have I forgotten anything? </FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE> :confused:

OK, when you touched the teleporter it should bring you back to the blue room with the big lever. Now walk out of the blue room and in the corner of the next room (not the purple room but the other one) you will see a passage with a starry texture. A door should be open there for you to crawl through. It opens up when you pulled the big lever to teleport you the first time. If you hit the big lever more than once then it might have closed the door again.

Okay, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be laughed at for this, but, how do I get in?
I tried following the hole in the wall but it leads to a dead end with bars infront of it. I've tried hitting it with my sword and blackjack, nothing happens. I've tried to shoot a fire arrow at it, nothing happens. I've tried to enter the main entrace but its all barred up. I've tried looking for switches that would open the bars but I can't find any. I've tried looking for something to shoot rope arrows into but I didn't find anything and I don't have a single rope arrow in my inventory either.
So, can anyone tell me how to get in?
Thanks!

[SPOILER]
"Mayor House Key" is on the corpse after the jump in the water under the main entrance. In this house an another key " Cemetery Key " and it's necessary to jump into the hole quite at the bottom on the left.
