safriend, are you actually IN the same room or can you only see him? You need to be in the same room for the objective to check off.

This mission has my vote for the scariest moment in a fan mission. [SPOILER]I was trying to pick the lock to a door on the second floor when much to my surprise the door opened and I was staring face to face with an angry orc. Up until that point, I had no idea any of the enemies in this mission weren't human. I didn't pay much attention to the guards on the wall next to the entrance.[/SPOILER]

Nightwalker,
I am in the room with the iron maiden, the torture tables w/ schackles, and the bed that goes up and down like an elevator. I see a thief on a wooden wheel upside down. To my right is a gate with the orc and green guy on the other side and to my backside is the two gates that lead to the electric room with the electric chair.
Is this the right place to find the keeper? or is he in cell?

The "Objective Complete" message should have poped up when you droped down into that room, that is the one.

One thing that is bugging me re: airborne KO's...
Is it me, or am I normally able to jump THEN strike with a weapon, (like jumping up to cut down a flag with a sword, etc...) but in this mission, I seem not to be able to do that?:confused:
Is this because of the KO objective?

I have always had to swing then jump, it wont even let me swing if I jump first.

Originally posted by Jabberwocky I have always had to swing then jump, it wont even let me swing if I jump first. Jabberwocky is correct. Go back into the game (or any fan or original mission) and try this: jump and while in the air try to blackjack. It doesn't work. Why? Who knows. It's best to get a little practice in so you know the perfect time to start swinging and quickly jump, allowing enough distance between you and the AI (because your jump will take you a few feet forward, unless you're just jumping straight up). It's easier to simply walk off a wall or whatever (Mages is a good example from Thief Gold) and then trigger your blackjack in mid-air, but you can only do this because you didn't actually jump.
It's just one of those quirks about Thief :cheeky:. I've always found it annoying too, but believe me, one gets used to it and pretty soon you'll be getting high "KO while airborne" scores on every FM :thumb:.

Great job Jabberwocky! I can't wait for the next installment (through the portal we will go?) :thumb:
I thought it was odd that I was able to Blackjack the giant orcs... never needed the acid arrows at all
And I have been everywhere and tried everything I can think of and can't find the crown! :(

Sorry, but that one is my lit....
Ow!
Hey! LEGGO,
NO NOT A POWER WEDGIE,
I'LL TELL, I'LL TELL!!!!!!!
[SPOILER]It is the Box Basher's Delight!![/SPOILER] for those who take them out 'just in case'.
Unfortunatly I set it up wrong, so the loot total is a bit buggy when you get it.
The Trolls Vs. acid was a situation of "Oh good, you made him mad.... and here come all his friends!" But they are useful if you miss a Air KO or piss em off and really want to see what is past him without reloading.
Thanks to all who gave comments and support. Hopefully my next will be up to snuff with less bugs. Even the ones only I know about.
