Played through this mission tonight. Loot found: 4856. Time taken:3 hours and 45 minutes. Loved every moment of it.
The fact you get a little cutscene at the end showing the outcome of your choices was awesome. :D

Yeah, Gman is a very talented person. Not only is this just the first mission in his campaign, but he also did and does a shit load of coding work on the mod itself, 1.08 would not have been released this soon had it not been for his efforts.

This mission it's really awesome. One of the best FM for TDM.
I strongly suggest this FM to anyone who want to try TDM.
The work done by Grayman it's incredible (also on the mod itself; this release, 1.08, it's a huge step forward).

This is the first mission I could play without a lurching computer. I have TDM set to 1920 x 1080 with everything cranked and its running like butter. This is a great mission so far so much to explore.
One question though
I have the shiny skull and in Grimoires crypt, but it is not ticking off the objective when I drop it in with his bones. Am I using the correct skull (one in glass box) or am I missing something?

Yeah you're missing something, look around for readables to find clues. Also, where to place the object took me a while to figure out. Hint: not in the Chapel.

Thanks for not letting me get away with using a complete spoiler. I was able to find what I needed after reading more clearly. :thumb:

To reiterate what I have written on the TDM forums, this is one of the best missions for the mod, and a "classic" among the ranks of The Heart of Lone Salvation, A Score to Settle and the NHAT campaign. It is a carefully planned visual feast, but what is more, it feels completely natural, something "real" instead of planned for a game. By that, I mean that everything had a logical function, whether it was architecture, hidden loot or plot elements. Also for this reason, there were no puzzles which felt frustrating -- just thinking about the environment cleared things up, and I was able to proceed. The organic design also manifests in how the location has its own story and how that impacts architecture and layout.
If you would like to play a complex, beautifully realised mansion mission, this is the one to try.

I've finished this mission (and only missed 180 loot), but I have a couple of questions:
Is it possible to get into the burned-out area?
Also, is it possible to access the upper area? There's a door up a flight of stairs off of the church with a note pinned to it that says the upper areas are closed, but that just seems like a tantalizing hint that the upper areas are, in fact, accessible through other means. I accessed the attic area near the library, as well as the top of the belltower, but that's all.

I don't think so - looks like a empty space with noclip

With a chair or something, it's possible to go up into the church upper stories. I don't recall if you could use the stair or not, because i never did. But when i say 'upper' i mean that it's possible to go into the beams of the church ceiling.

That was awesome Grayman, looking forward to part 2. :cool:
