He's probably hiding in the Guard house. (He is such a coward!). He could also be back in the bar (Bull and Finch). Or hiding in an alley behind Garrett's apartment. Or possibly in the Hammer's temple.
Those are all the places I put flee points.

Thanks, I'll look there. Hopefully, he went to one of those places and won't move around.
Great mission. I really liked the AI's turning the lights back on. Cute <IMG SRC="thumb.gif" border="0">

OK, this post has only one purpose: I hope it might help author of this really, really good FM to release in the future a new, improved version of 'Lorgan's Web".
I've encountered following problems:
A) After his monologue, Cudged falls down, unconscious. That's OK, but he often (it happened to me a few times) falls into the wall and dissapears. And he cannot be picked up...
B)I tried to throw Lorgan to the spiders. And I tried to do that from the ledder. Lorgan woke up, stood up (crying) and spiders started to attack him, but they could not touch him (although he stood on the ground). They did no harm to him...
C) This one happened to me twice: sometimes I could not steal the purse from person in the brothel. First, I had to bj him/her...
D) And this one is strange: while walking down the stairs in the tavern I suddenly... died... for no reason...(and I had no demage earlier). Well, I like to think about it as breaking my neck :) because I was running (not walking) down the stairs... ;)
Of course, these are all small (hmm...) bugs, but such a great FM should be polished, right? ;)

This is something liable to happen sometimes in any Thief mission, original or fan. It's known to die-hard taffers as Sudden Heart Attack Syndrome (SHAS). :) It's notorious for occuring on those broken stairs in Return to the Cathedral.

Hi guys,
I'm working on some bug fixes. Bukary, you've been lucky, some other people have had some ugly bugs.
Were you playing under Thief:The Dark project, TDP with TG patch, or Thief Gold. I'm finding that the bugs are different depending on what your playing it under.
Yeah, Cudget does sometimes fall into the wall and vanish, I tried to keep it from happening, but it's hard to tell where everyone will be standing when he gets up.
Some other folks have had the Lorgan not dying bug. I don't know why that happens yet, the spiders definitely CAN kill him, and do it quite well.
It seem that even neutral characters (the folks in the brothel) don't let you take their purse if they notice you. Did you try to take anything else before the purse? (hint, hint).
The sudden heart attack? I've had that happen to me for no apparent reason in lots of different FMs. It's just a Thief bug, I guess.
I hope to have a bug fixed version in a couple of more weeks. Let me know if you find any more bugs.

Very good mission, Shadowspan! :)
When I played, the mission wouldn't complete. Others had the same problem. I completed all objectives. Cudget and I walked through the gate, mission finished, and then... nothing. We just stood there looking at the wall like a couple of idiots with nothing more to do. :p

In the apartment opposite the building where you start the game there's a person sitting over strange scroll-like-open-book (it's about you bj-ing that person ;) ). This man has a blue key at his belt. What is that for??? I think I've been everywhere but I haven't found anything that could be opened with this strange key... :confused: I played this FM on expert and found 4029 of loot. Does this key give acces to the rest of the loot? :confused:

Silver Sorrow,
You're right! <IMG SRC="thumb.gif" border="0">

OO! And it was so simple... Sometimes I forget that 'Thief' is not the game but ... the reality :) Thanks, guys!
