I am playing on difficulty level Tips, so maybe different... Ingredients are in the Air System in one of the two buildings on the rooftop. Affirmative to your second question - the instructions next to the machine also confirms this.Hm. I don't know if they're in that building. The one with the broken machine, no? I found ingredients for the other arrows, that's it. Of course, I didn't look behind all the boxes...
I'm playing thief difficulty.

I didn't noticed the "not touch the machinery" objective and I use some wheel but FM didn't end. After 2 hours of playing I returned to the place where I turned the wheel and game ends with broken objective: What can I do to continue without replaying whole FM ?
This is clearly a bug. I can't think of anything for you to do other than (a) don't revisit that place or (b) reload a save before you turned the wheel. If you can remember exactly what wheel it was (machine number, and what location), I will try to reproduce it.

Okay I am stuck.[SPOILER]I just found the hand of Saint Fera. How do I get back out of this room? The way I came in is blocked and I can not find any switches to reopen the door. Awesome effect when you take the hand..man Lord Alan is good.[/SPOILER] Thanks for any help!
Sting
P.S. I just went back and tried it again and the door was reopened when the event ended. It was a bug I guess, that or the fact I was shocked and tried to back out of the door during it, so it could not open..lol
It's not a bug. It's supposed to scare the crap out of you. Very effective, I think.

They are the wheels in cooling part of factory. I think I turned 2 or 3 of these wheels I'm not sure which one...
I definitely should replay FM because I need visit the locked door 7733... However, replaying such an excellent FM is pleasure... maybe I'll try another way...

Most ingredients are found[SPOILER]in the green lockers in the lower air system.[/SPOILER]I think that in Thief, and I know that in Timed,[SPOILER]the fluid ingredient for the TNT ignitine arrows are hidden elsewhere.[/SPOILER]I do not remember about Tips. Post back if you need more details.
As for the fabrication of the arrows, there are[SPOILER]instructions (both arrow types are the same) and a room with a machine,[/SPOILER]which I presume you have found. The way it works is,
[SPOILER]If you have some of the ingredients, you get some of the arrows. If you put the rest of the ingredients in the machine later, you get the rest of the arrows. That is, you do not lose 6 of 12 shafts and 6 of 12 tips.[/SPOILER]

But I wanted to know where the explosive ingredient is in Thief difficulty! :erg:
Actually, I remember seeing a bottle somewhere in the plant earlier on in the level. But I'll be damned if I could remember where that is.

Great FM. Extreme architecture and machinery are WOW! Very well thought out and executed. Congratulations Lord Alan!
In several areas I have 'died'. No machinery was touched and wondering if this is a bug? Each time I reload my fast save, I die again. I have one sensor remaining to deactivate. Does this mean I have to go back to a hard save? Nutz.....
Can't find the arrow crystals; I have all the rest to make arrows. Where are these located?
Thans for the help.

What a real treat this mission is. Lord Alan, thank you very much.
I had to drag myself away from playing to post this. Two days and I've just left the fire level. Having such a good time exploring that I don't want to read the posts in this thread and spoil it.
Anyone else been for a ride on the big green pistons in Earth?

[SPOILER]The TNT ingredient is located on top of a concrete structure, in a room off the West side of the Physical and Chemical Treatment area. Take a ladder up and walk a pipe.[/SPOILER]
That is for Timed, and I am pretty sure it applies to Thief, too.

It sounds like you may have run out of time. [SPOILER] Once you get the defuse bombs objective, you only have a limited time to do it, as indicated by the bomb timer. Check the objectives screen after you die and see if there is a red X in the defuse bombs objective. Also check your bomb timer quickly on the last save, if you can. If you can't do that, you might try checking it on an earlier save. If that is the case, then you need to load an earlier save and go faster.[/SPOILER]
