I love the views, especially looking down from the top of the water tower :) & the lay out is great, but that's why I need some help... The castle has too many places to go...again... Can someone point me in the right direction of the artifact? I've killed everybody, but ALL the doors won't stay open so it's hard to plot any courses :confused:

that is a really cool preview shot, I'm impatiently downloading now!
why does the title say "August 8th 2010" if the first posts are today (the 24th)?

The artifact is
in the lower basement, in a vault behind two metal doors and a guard post You will need
a key from the high priest's bedroom, which is on the top floor of the central tower. The HP is carrying the key to the bedroom.

another very minor update....
for some very annoying reason the door to the cell block was mission from the latest version - corrected.
:nono:

I played the earlier mission version with the
impassable tunnel. Is there any way to use my savegame from that (I had done everything except leave) with the new fixed version of the mission? I tried what I thought should work and got an error/crash. All I want to do is end the mission. Is the
cave the end?
I would have thought so, but if you cant be bother to go through it all again, Just noclip through it.
Just press (
ctrl-alt-`) the (
`) key is just the left of the number 1 key. This will bring up the doom3 console and then type
noclip . But be aware use no clip mode with caution, when in noclip mode you will be able to fly into the void, so will be able to view the whole map = very low fps.

Your Solar System is quite creative.
thanks, took me a few hours to create that..

Edudrekib, this look like a nice mission.
A very annoying bug though, I have to launch the fm 4 times (more or less) before I can have any weapons!
Even after a second install of the fm.
It's the first time it happens to me.
(2 more small things: a framerate that dropped to 4 3 2 1 0 fps when exiting the chapel through east door, and a door handle floating in the air at the entrance of the cellblock)

I've just checked the latest version and it works fine.
Ive only seen this happen once, and none of my tester mentioned it so it must be a bug.
uninstall the mission, restart TDM and then re-install.

I was about to remark on the floating door handles in the jail, but it seems those have been noticed.
I had a crash to desktop while trying to pick the prison guard's pocket, but a second try was successful.
I'm now stuck in the cave under the prison; I can't climb the side of the vines closest to the ledge, and can't make the jump because of the stalactite. any advice?
also, can I have a clearer hint on the key to the artifact? I've been all over the priests' quarters, roof, and top towers, but can't find it.
thank you, Bikerdude, this is a cool outpost!

Wow, there are weapons in this mission! I played two versions and didn't have any until I tried the above. I just thought it was some kind of ghosting mission.:erg:

On a bookcase or shelf near the door [in the priest's room] as I recall there is a jewellery or cash box. You have to lockpick it and the key to the chest is inside.
