No, it's not the journal.

You should have found a safe and a crumpled paper in the Lord's room. Look carefully for two switches.

One more hint: You have to trigger the first switch before you can find the second.

no no, I got the empty safe and the crumpled note; you said something about the offices downstairs so I went to look and couldn't find anything new. I must be missing something obvious, here; maybe I'm concentrating on ghosting (which I don't normally do) instead of putting clues together

edit: bah! I must have grabbed the key from the sleeping guard and gotten caught, then reloaded and not grabbed it again. now the clue about the offices makes sense

LOL, I had almost finished on Normal, all objectives accomplished, but on my way back the fricking servant in the kitchen was standing on the.....well where the sink is, looking in my direction, so I couldn't finish the mission because the ghosting objective was busted.:mad:
Of course this just enforces my opinion abouts forced ghosting objectives....:nono:

I finished on Expert with 2615 loot. For an hour or so I had only 2515 (2500 needed). That is a pretty small margin. Then I saw the clue here about the potted plant, so that gave me an extra 100. I had actually removed all but one of the potted plants, and the one I missed was obviously the one I missed.:) I guess I'll give up the loot hunt at this point.

I thought it was strange for a major item, the cash box, to appear out of thin air. I found a slight clue about that in the readme, but I don't recall any other indication.

Thanks to the author for a nice little mission. :thumb: Really enjoyed it. I did encounter a few minor bugs but all in all it was quite good. Simple but very thiefy.

The guard that patrols outside the dining room went around in circles at the end of the hall. I stopped counting after fifteen times. Was that intentional or a bug? Either way it made ghosting that part interesting. :laff:

A guard and a woman are blocking the passage and I can't get by without being spotted - is there another way?

Never mind - I went to an earlier saved and they went their separate ways.

Tannar on 5/12/2008 at 18:58

Are they stuck or are they just standing there? Normally, when you start to enter that hallway a conversation starts between them and then they will move on. You may not have gone through the doorway far enough to trigger the conversation.

Not bad small mansion mission. Like idea with switch in hiding, "secret in secret".

I seem to have discovered some sort of bug (on Expert).

I have the Objectives to steal the ring and the loot Objective ticked.

I put the wife's scroll - the one left beside the lock box once you have found the safe - into the recess in the Lord's room that contains the first switch. I get the Objective Complete onscreen message and chime, but the objective to ensure the Lord does not suspect you of the theft remains unchecked in the Objectives screen. I therefore cannot finish the game.

I just dropped it on the desk (I think it was a desk. Just out in the open.) and the objective checked off.
