Hello Everyone!
FYI the Factory does not use custom scripts.
Warm regards

I agree. I have posted a (

Maybe this information is available at the Editor's Guild.
I am no expert in this. I just use what they tell me to. And sometimes they get delivered in FMs as if by magic. Some expert at the Circle should sort this out.

When do the Lord Alan missions take place? It's difficulty for me to tell.
I've been thinking maybe just as the Mechanists began to rise. The industrial theme certainly seems to support my assertion. The Hammerites here are unusually bloodthirsty, which makes me wonder if they eventually became Mechanists. That's assuming my theory of the time is sound.
Is my guess wrong?
Terrific mission, hope it's not the last of the series.
The series thus far has been a unique experience for me. They creep me out and keep me in suspense, a nice surprise considering the mission aren't horror-themed.
The end movie really has me scared. So the day is saved...but at what cost?

Finally catching up on this one. Good god this place is huge! Makes Thieves Guild look like a dollhouse in comparison. I've already been lost for two hours, although at least I'm starting to get an idea of what's going on after finding some offices.
Based on a few readables, and some very unsettling music in certain locations, I get the overall impression this is heading towards industrial horror. It brings to my mind an old Radio show my dad liked called "(
http://www.geocities.com/emruf6/59.html) Thing on the fourble board". As Garrett once said:"I've got a bad feeling about this..."
Guess I'll see, if I can ever find my way through this place without getting lost...
Edit:Jan 10th
Again, good lord! It took me 5 hours to get through this. Guess I was wrong about the horror bent (a bit to my dissapointment), but this mission was still fantastic. The textures were amazing, the architecture, everything. Building something of this magnitude must have been some serious labor of love.
My only complaint was some of the ladders were a serious PITA to climb back down. I must have fallen ridiculous heights to an acrophobics worst nightmare end I don't know how many times. Otherwise than that I gave this mission 9/10 on the sites I am able to score it. If the ladders that gave me trouble worked better, I'd have gone 10/10. 11/10 if the baddies had been something new
and creepy.

Old thread, but who cares with a mission as good as this one!
I looked up from the water and saw the soaring machinery above me and thought, praise the lord and pass the whiskey, somebody's finally combined Thief with Deus Ex. My idea of heaven. :thumb::thumb::thumb:
'Course, I'm already stuck, but I'll muddle along for a while on my own.

Bumping up old threads is perfectly acceptable on this particular forum.
That's about the same reaction I had the first time I saw the mission. It's truly amazing!

This one is truly mind boggling in size and scope. I still can't believe Andrea was able to cram it all in without dromed exploding. Andrea is a master without a doubt. :thumb::cheeky::D:)

Okay, now I am stuck, and I don't want to wander aimlessly for too long or the mission will be spoiled for me.
I finally found my way up to the Air level by elevator and aside from some neat weaponery, found nothing. Very disappointing. I thought once I got up there I would be able to find more routes, but apparently it's just back down the elevator again.
I have only been able to enter codes in two places so far (code 7431 & 2537). I know where a third is, but can't get up to it.
Obviously I need to find the key to the engineer's office, but I'm all out of ideas. I've completed the 90% of the factory objective, so I've been all over -- I just can't find anything.
The walkthrough I finally referred to in frustration said that on the Air level I should go through doors 3311 and at the other end there would be a ladder down to the Admin area. I don't see a ladder anywhere up there.
Any help would be welcome.
edit....oh, how typical. I've just found THAT key, after all, and am back in the running.

Just finished the map without any help in almost 4 hours. I want to say "Thank you" for one of the biggest and greatest mission ever created.
I also loved the prequels Basement and Fortress; therefore I hope there will be another FM by Lord Alan.

Lord Alan's factory is insanely good! I thought I was in a whole new game when I played it a few months ago!
