T2 fm - HoC2: the dragon's claw (release 8/30/2010) MISSION 1

scaredmum, somewhere in your T2 folder is a file called gen.osm, and somewhere in the zipped mission folder is a file called gen.osm. The names are identical but the files aren't. What you need to do is replace the gen.osm file in your T2 folder with the gen.osm file from the mission folder.
Don't worry too much about "breaking" something. Don't worry about removing the original gen.osm file. You won't need it (at least, I haven't). but if you do, you can always reinstall T2... or you can back up the file before the swap, and leave a copy on your desktop. Just don't mess around with any of the other files; I'm pretty sure that gen.osm is the culprit.
I really hope this helps. It did for me (and I'm no computer wiz, either), and it's a very good mission, so it would be a shame for you to miss out on all the fun.

There were a couple early posts about not being able to see the sparks from the broken electric wires at the start of the mission. I tried replacing my gen.osm file as described above but have had no luck. Anyone get this issue solved or have an idea what I can do about it. I really want to play this one. Thank you.

Ok, got it. For some reason when I used my sword to cut the wires I could hear some sparks but could not see them. I was previously using my BJ although I don't know why it would make a difference. I'm all set now so onward!

on page 6 kittycat says the way to the loose bricks is down the steps right of the main gate, a sewer entrance,i cant find one, where is the way to the villa.

doug - in the metal-walled vents, head north past a small red pool, through a 'window', up a few stairs & turn right. The loose bricks will be on your left - easier spotted if you carry a lighted torch.

Further - there's more than 1 set of loose bricks.....

Hey, excellent mission.

I've managed to get behind the shop but can't open the golden lock box? Any hints on where the key for it is?

Thanks,

You need to get to the cable car, I'm pretty sure there's a readable somewhere that tells you where this key is.

inadvertently made my way into the villa via some lose brick work. I guess I should be happy but I would have liked to tie up the lose ends in part one first. anyway, really super mission!
