T2 FM Secret Breaking Of A Pyramid 30/12/06

Why is everyone so anti the spiders?

This is not a great FM (it's illogical (clues or reasons for secret doors?), frustrating (those steps! :mad: :cool: ) and requires a good pair of walking boots) but I thought the spiders offered quite an unusual challenge.

It's certainly no worse than a lot of released FMs.:erg:

I'm not against spiders as such. It's just the amount of spiders in this mission. 10 or 15 spiders should be enough to create suspence not like these hoards of spiders. :nono:

I dunno; the spiders don't bug me much. I gassed most of them, and the rest I just killed with the sword. Got bit a few times; a couple of health potions fixed me up. Definitely not a ghostable mission!

But now I'm stuck: all the spiders in the entry corridors and the big, long main corridor are dead. I turned on the lights. I wandered around the sand dunes and found a golden door I can't open; at the lower end of the long corridor (the end of where I can get) is a metal door I can't hack through; at the upward end is the outside. In between the tunnel and the outside is a door in the ceiling that I can't open.

What now? If there is a key to proceed further, I sure haven't found it. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Dafydd

clearing-
did you say the key is IN the mummy? :eek:
which one would that be? right after the ankh, or upstairs in the tomb? and how do I get the key out?

Yes. You should kill (http://img171.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dump000st0.jpg) this mummy by holy water and key wake (http://img171.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dump001kp2.jpg) here. Use (http://img171.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dump002bn3.jpg) here. Then rise on upper floor where will the statue and button under her. Here is such bad English :rolleyes:

MrMunkeepants on 3/1/2007 at 11:44

thank you, clearing!
for anyone who didn't understand, you must: kill the (http://img171.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dump000st0.jpg) mummy, then (http://img171.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dump001kp2.jpg) a key will appear on the sarcophagus; use it on the (http://img171.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dump002bn3.jpg) red tiles by the steps into the mummy's sarcophagus.

I have gone up, moved the statue, and hit that button, then killed the skeletons that appear; where do I go now? I see nothing different

DaffyDD- have you gone down the ladder from (what I think of as) the Grand Hall (very tall and steep), and then down the ropes? there are rooms on the way down with a key...

The_Dude on 3/1/2007 at 12:50

[SPOILER]Hitting that button opens up the door down the ropes you mentioned earlier.[/SPOILER]

MrMunkeepants -- ladder? ropes? grand hall? All I see is a long corridor and sand dunes!

What am I missing?

Check your map... you are in the bottom most part of the map. The sand dunes are in the bottom room. You need to get back up to the entry corridor (with the hordes of spiders) and hack your way through a wall or two and climb up to the big hall.

I was having fun with this strange new mission, but when I got to a secret door the frame rate went cucko. I'll wait for an updated version if there is one.
