:p:pDoH! I didn't see something else I should've placed with the charge to give it a real bang....
Need to get the key to the chest in the bunkhouse... I believe that's where the hook pick is that I need to resuce Basso..

alright, I've gotten Basso to the boat, but I'm missing a nautical chart (the map doesn't count?) and some food. hints to location of the first?
I did figure out the secret on Black Alley, though!

It's not hidden. Have a look round the tavern.

I tried with plate and TNT gel on left as well as trigger core on right. 2 times, it kept on running longer but nothing came out and the buttons were not frobbable as well as the gold name tags were not readable... Will reboot my pc...
I had a similar problem right now:
The golden plaque near one of the locks didn't have any text assigned to it. I've opened the mission in DromEd and noticed that Brethren is using NVScript for a lot of stuff.
Thus, it's the old problem with NVScript not working from time to time (playing on Windows 7 x64).
I did a quick check with some of the other objectives in the mission and it seems like a lot of them are also triggered by some NVScripts (e.g. NVRelayTrap).
I think that the following might help some of you to complete the mission:
1. go to any combination lock and frob the golden plaque
2. if no text appears, restart your system and try again
Don't try to use any machines or story-related items if those golden plaques near the combination locks do not display any text! Remember to restart your system in such a case.
EDIT
Finished the mission! Congrats on releasing such an entertaining mission Brethren! I like it very much :thumb:

Man! Sorry to all re: all the crashes/errors , I didn't realize NVScript could potentially cause so many issues. And none of these things ever came up during beta testing (we had one minor issue, but not to the degree some of you are experiencing). darthsLair also mentioned that I'm pushing the limits a bit with object count, and that may be causing some problems too.
I hope to put out a revised edition over the weekend sometime, which might make things run smoother.

You'll make an update? Great! I'm sure that it shall be more pleasant if you remove all trouble, It was too bad to get a bug like I have. If you do another version, I'll play it.

It's not your fault. I played your mission on Wednesday and Thursday without any problems. Just today NVScript didn't seem work before the reboot :tsktsk:
If think that Haplo once put a nice test into one of his missions, telling you right away whether NVScript is currently working or not. I think he displayed some text when it was not working...you should ask Haplo for further details.

I have all objectives except two "...By boat seems to be the best way" and "Basso is still alive, but locked up. I'll have to break him out". Help!
nickie on 20/4/2012 at 17:34
Don't worry about the first one for now. For the 2nd you need to unlock the small cell near the Hammerite church. For that you need the thin/hooked lockpick - have you found that yet?
