Thanks, Nightwalker. I just found it by slowly going over every square inch of the room. I would like to hear from anyone else who is experiencing the same glitches I am on some of these missions. Would like to know how to resolve them.

Did you install the patch? That might fix some of it, though I can't say for sure.

Where do I get the patch?
Nightwalker on 24/6/2003 at 01:09
There's a link to the patch in the FAQ thread at the top of the forum.

Actually, the problem the new version of the mission was supposed to fix was with the objectives, which, to this day, are still not working as intended (but at least you can Success now).
The plaques sometimes to be extra-sensitive in terms of how precise you need to click them. Since I didn't use a strings file for the plaques, I can't remember if there's a gaylesaver script being used or just a regular property. I'll have to open it up in dromed to tell, but can't get at it at present.

More or less complete guide:

Safe Key - found under the lectern in the first floor class lecture hall. Goes to the safe in the third floor office with ... the big green safe.
Secret Key - found in a small coinbox hidden in the side of the Probate book case in the first floor library.
Front Door Key - unlocks the front door; would be necessary if I was competent and wrote the Objectives correctly.[/SPOILER]
LOOT

re-playing all the old contest fms and I STILL can't find the taffin safe! I know it's "Big and Green" but I've looked everywhere, in every office. My friend is sitting here by me, and she usually sees stuff before I do, and even she doesn't see it. Playing the updated version, on expert. please help:sweat:

I suspect you're overlooking a staircase. There are 2 and they don't lead to the same place.
