Biker, please include a warning in the expert mode objectives, that you won't get any weapon at start. I'm not sure this is a good idea though,we may play a long time before finding a blackjack (if there is any) or a single water arrow. Also please make the cave vinesclimbable on both side.:cool:

Fair enough, but I could have sworn I've played some T2 mission where this is the case on expert.

The vines that you need to escape via is claimable on both sides, I canter remember about the other vine.

Bikerdude,

I have played your beautiful fm, and laughed when I got stuck in the cave and then read that poor chaps diary. Stuck in a obliete. Taffing idiot I am always getting stuck in a hole.:laff:

I did how ever finish the game and enjoyed it greatly.

Looking forward to your next efforts :thumb:

Very nice mission, with cool architecture and looks. Really worth playing.
I got just a little bit confused at 3 places:

- spent a lot of time trying to get through the little grid in the kitchen garden.
- really thought the cave would be an access to something.
- any way to open the door between the toilets and the stairs tower ? even if useless. I'm not used to leave a mission with an unlocked door ;)

Thanks Biker :thumb:

Its a contest mission, so I didn't have a lot of time to expand as much as I would have liked to. If you look at the map there is a note about that grate in the garden. That door between the toilets and stairs is locked period (designed to make the player explore)

I've completed all the initial objectives and could probably just leave, but one thing bothers me. When I get to that lift here:
(http://www.ttlg.de/others/dl-center_v2/fm-screenshots/10219/05.jpg)
There's a guy stuck in the shaft. I tried sending him the lift to take him up or down or wherever, but to no avail. And when I try to get to him the game crashes.
Is there a way around it? Or do I have to start over again? Or there's no point, since the game will keep crashing?
Also: is there a blackjack anywhere?

The lack of weapons makes sense if protagonist was captured, thrown to jail and now have to get out and regain his possessions. Otherwise that's just rude :nono:

There will be an updated version for TDM 2.0, so I suggest playing that version once TDM2.0 is out.

Enjoying the misson a lot.

Question: I found weapons and arrows in the basement, but no blackjack. Is there a blackjack anywhere on Expert level? Just a yes or no

A nudge to the solar system room please....:D
Ok..found it, what a work of art..now all I have to do is get out and if it's in that cave with the spiders...I'm screwed as there seems to be some invisible barriers in the way.

What is it your looking for..? and you can get down there there should be not invisible arrows.
