I've completed all other objectives, but I can't find the plans for the art museum...?

Top floor, Public Records room
Bigger hint
Look around for a drawer that highlights.

Walk in the door nearest the lift (east end of the room) and walk straight ahead to the file cabinets. The lower left one is the one you want.

Those cabinets were pretty dark, until you crouch and get right up on it. I must have walked past that area to look for the plans a dozen times. It fools you a bit.

Yeah, that was the problem for me, too. I didn't realize there were cabinets - I thought they were just decorations. :o
Anyway, this was a nice little mission, although I don't think I would have been able to finish it on Expert without some help with the loot. I think I got to around 1300-something before I had to resort to hints.

Very nice mission Yandros, thank you! :thumb: Finished with 1610 and 3 secrets found. Ghosted successfully; the guards were fairly challenging at times. Being able to turn lights off occassionally made it possible to ghost, not sure I would have done it otherwise. Nice work.

Actually, turning off the lights can help ghosting in a way some players might not realize... besides the obvious, it also slows down the AI patrol and gives you an extra few seconds when you're somewhere else, trying frantically to pick a lock and get into an office. Especially on Will's floor (with all the offices), I tend to shut off the lights in every room I'm in so it slows him down later when he returns to those rooms.

thank you, Yandros! the basement gate made me search around again, which was an unexpected difficulty for so early in the level.
is it not possible to achieve the higher difficulties' objectives on normal? I always give a few bonus points to missions that give them as optional or bonus objectives if done in-game
Tannar on 29/12/2008 at 05:05
Actually Yandros, that is exactly what I meant! :laff: There were a couple of pretty tense lockpicking sessions that wouldn't have succeeded if the guard wasn't busy turning on lights!
