T2 FM: Ominous Bequest (8/12/2003 - Gold version 5/15/2008)

Jake, [SPOILER]You're probably looking at the wrong reliefs: Go to the corridor that directly leads to the room with the sloped pillar. Look at the reliefs of dead people lying around; one of them is laid out the other way. Rope arrow up there and you'll see the loose brick with a pushable button behind it.[/SPOILER]

After the spectacular success of Ominous Bequest, I fear a lot of designers will feel shy with the release of their missions. I mean it's hard to get that level of breathtaking views, compositions of great-looking textures and architecture. Pfff!! Plus the story, the atmosphere...

Nah, it should serve as an inspiration to others. With time, effort, and help from the community, even a first-time mission author can pull off a masterpiece. And even if you don't manage to reach that level, we still love to play your missions.

OK - I finished this at last and am looking forward to doing it all over again on next level. I though it was stunning and maybe contrary to other people I loved the puzzles even though I'm crap at them. With something like this - who needs Resident Evil?

Thank you Eshaktaar

Heya- got the sword an talisman, but wut next? I've been in the riddlers tomb, but all i saw was a fire and a water arrow. I also shot the water and fire arrows at the pictures on the way down the vator to the church, but nothing happened.

OMG...this is the craziest, hardest shiznit I've ever dealt with!!

So, so good....THANK YOU for this!

OK, I read pages 1 thru 14 of TTLG forum on this FM, I'm so dizzy with hints.
I think I'm still in the beginning...No a single guard is breathing in the mansion. I've been to two attics I think...

I just have no idea where to go or what to do.
I have not been in the blocked room yet, can't find the way in.

ALso I have not been to the sewars, the vault, the church, the burricks...nada. I seem to have quite a few keys.

Please, someone for the love of my SANITY point in the right direction.
What are the next 5 or so things I need to do.

I'll pay someone hansomly for a complete walkthrough with loot list...I could play this one over and over, and over and over, and over and over again.

Lockpick -

It sounds like you missed an unlocked door - very easy to do in a mansion with auto-close doors.

[SPOILER]Go to the central garden with the fountain. Look for a pair of double doors between the two doors that lead to spiral staircases (I think) This should lead you to the church, tombs, vault, yadda yadda. It is unlocked and doesn't require any special keys.

I'm a little confused though. I didn't think you could get to the attics before you got to the inner vault. Perhaps I'm mistaken as to where you need to go next. Have you got the gemstones already? [/SPOILER]

Jake -

Quote:

[SPOILER]Remember the riddle at the top of the tomb?

Something about watering a flame?

See any flames?

Or maybe a torch?

Use the water arrow on the central wall torch.

Then look for a teardrop to flame ;) [/SPOILER]

Thanks kfort.

[SPOILER]I went up to the attic via the ceiling pannel at the top of the main stairs, the ladder dropped down and I went up...I then went out the attic window to the roof and went to another attic. I see the piece of furniture blocking the hatch to some room, but I can't move the piece of furniture. So, I should go the the center doors to get to the church, etc? Sounds like a plan...[/SPOILER]

kfort on 1/10/2003 at 14:26

[SPOILER]Yup, those are the attics alright. Weird. How'd you get in? I needed the pole thingie in the inner vault, but from your post, it sounds like you haven't been there yet.:confused: Ah, well. I guess it doesn't matter - just seems a little strange to me.

Good luck with the rest of the mission - it is great![/SPOILER]

OK, I made it through the church, killed the priest and I think killed some wizard.

Now.[SPOILER]I went down to the crypt but I'm not sure what to do. I explored the family tomb and the other way with the huge drop in the cylander middle. What's my plan of action here? Thanks![/SPOILER]
