What a nice holiday gift...:cool:
It sure is - an awesome achievement revealing what this revamped old engine might be capable of (with or without future optimizations). IMO, streching the limits is rather welcome than objectionable, even with obvious risks and side effects. Quoting Michael Faraday it's not failing, it's inventing new techniques that may not always work...
Replaying the new version
(on Expert, with 7115/7990 loot and 12/13 secrets) I still have a few unresolved questions:
1) How to disable the gas trap in the merchant's house?
2) How to open the room just under the loft, next to the groom's (with someone singing inside)?
3) There is a "corner house" mentioned in the lootlist which I cannot even identify, not to mention enter
4) There is a frobbable cabinet in the basement of Clean & Cosy - ?Thanks for any suggestion, and a very Happy New Year to you all!:thumb::joke:

Fortuni, thank you, that allowed me to finally finish this mission.
One question though regarding the merchant's house. The lootlist mentions an attic and groom's room. Where is that and how to enter?

Thanks a bunch, with your help I've made "a giant leap" forward....
Gas trap: got it, but that was really naughty!
Corner house: hell, I've been on that roof at least a hundred times before, but did not lean close enough... BTW, short frobbing distances also make picking up some loot very difficult.
Found most of the new loot in the E part of the zombie house - and to my surprise I've been promoted to "devastator" (-> having collected ALL valuables) at only 7570 / 7990... Do you plan to update the lootlist? Apparently there must be changes elsewhere, as
I have 7740 / 7990, with the current list exhausted.

Hey, fortuni, you too often use the word 'evil' in relation to my person, I would not say that I like it.

Check the
fireplace in the merchant's bedroom (past the gas trap) carefully.

Just a heads up: in Keeper difficulty, if you get into Adaline's house, it will put the guard in front in attack mode even if you snuck in without him seeing you. I found out the hard way, after I went back to the streets thinking I'd be able to stroll around in peace like nothing happened :(

Ok, I'm in the merchant's room, I'm sure there's something behind the fireplace, but I can't find a switch anywhere...
EDIT: Never mind, found it
