Well I know it's a egg but I've seen no reference to a code. Also I've tried real-world possibilities like release of your FM year or when you joined ttlg :) Don't tell me but give me a hint on how I find code.

Mmh, you're quite on the right way in fact. The combination isn't in the game itself, maybe you should try to do restart the mission as if you never played it, and pay attention to everything prior to launching it. Man, it sounds much more complicated than it really is, said like this ^^

On another matter, I am going to PM you about another project you might be interested in - if you want to roll into more building.

Also, sure! Let me just take the time to read it, somehow I'm having more difficulties understanding you over your fellows :cheeky: no need to change anything, I just need to process it!

By save fail type jump events, you mean the coffin path next to Agar's sword right? It's quite hard yes, I didn't know Thief platforming was infamous before I got it to beta-test ^^ Also, the secret is in the mansion part

Yes, I had to cheat a little. Weird giggles. I didn't know if they were laughing because I cheated or laughing at me for doing such a ridiculous task. It was a nice touch that made it worthwhile. It ranks up there. If I can figure out how to add some extra equipment using dromed I am going to start over from scratch.

It isn't necessary to use any equipment to complete the mission and all the goals, by the way. FrenchDecay has worked out the patrol routes of the AI such that, with a little bit of patience, it's possible to sneak past all of them without even putting out a torch. You should also know that you can take out the metal swordsmen with a single overhead sword strike, if you sneak up on them. Not the archers, though, unfortunately.

Strange. I took down an archer with the sword in the room right above Agar's sword.

For those in trouble with the Burnt Crown, a little hint:

The 'platforms' never go away - they just turn invisible. You can still mantle on them.

Lots and lots of fun. Can't believe this is your first mission :O Missed about 400 loot and the secret so gonna replay after a while :angel:

It might be a editing/beta-test oversight or maybe you had Agar's sword on you, it's way stronger and has fire or holy damage, but I don't remember which one

Thanks for playing! I really took my time with it :p I'd better warn you, some of the hiding spots for the loot are super douchy, there's one in particular I've completely forgotten, the beta-testers have found them though so you just have to pay attention everywhere you go! Also, about the secret, if you don't find anything at all you can search in this topic, there's a "spoiler" text where I say in which part of the FM it is, without giving it away of course :cheeky:

A loot list is also provided in the Mission Zip folder. In case anyone wants one. I now am starting over and I managed to make it through the mansion without using a single water arrow. I finally found the secret. I don't know how I missed it. I usually check fireplaces I opted out of adding more weapons to the mission. I want to take a different approach to the caves now that I have been through it once. Agar's sword was the last thing I found the last time. I am going to go after it first if I can just to see what happens.

Silly, but all objectives complete except leaving by the front door. I'm in the mansion 1st floor by what I assume is the front door, but it is shut solid. Not sure if this is the correct place or not.

Personally, I find the mansion part harder to go through unnoticed than the underground, mainly because the underground is way larger and gives more places to go, moreover AIs there can't walk around as freely as up there. Basically, all the stuff that is given to you early in the FM is meant to be used in the mansion part, I'm not a very good player though!

Are you sure you explored the entire underground? you should pay attention to every room you get to explore, especially the roof

I spent all last night playing from the very start to the very end accomplishing every task. One thing is for sure this is going to be on the top of my list as most memorable missions. Haunts made of lava fire. Steel guards from head to toe. It was amazing. FrenchDecay your a genius. I have always hated lava jump missions but I must say I really enjoyed this one. I did use New mantle in places to avoid tough jumps. The casket vaulting in obtaining the Burnt Crown was actually easier than using New mantle to cheatTo be honest I used New mantle at my first attempt I grabbed the crown and went straight up. I am laughing as I write this. The Lava quickly overtook me. It only took me three or four attempts to make it out the correct way. The second forced lava jump really seemed like it was going to take me an hour to master it so New mantle saved the day. As for the rest everything was very well done. There were so many great moments. Eofol's brothers? Brilliant.
