Alright, thanks for the help earlier Fidcal. I'm still pretty stuck though...
I got into the interrogation room but can't seem to find anything to do there. I see a dead body, but it's apparently not Sam. Am I missing something?

Look up..

Then for the next bit if you get stuck. read sam's note carefully

Thanks for the help, finally finished it!
This is definitely the best Dark Mod mission yet. Not only that though, it succeeded in making me just about as excited for new DM missions as I am for new T2 missions, and that's really saying something.:thumb:

OMFG! Great mission. Not done yet. Finally got to the pump room and figured out how to lower the heart. My God, that was a very tense area!

Have no idea where Sam,s body is though, and still have to find the powder.

Also couldn't get into the garden. The door only opens a little bit. Is there some way in there?

This is my first TDM mission and kind of wish I hadn't played it first. I have a feeling I've been spoiled.

mgeorge: The powder is already in the lantern above the Heart cabinet. Use the slow match to light it.

To get into the garden you need to move the junk out of the way.

To learn how to manipulate objects see...

Stuck again.

I've dragged Sam's corpse from the pit to the other locked and barred room. Where is the key?

canetoad [Spoiler] the key is near the door, easily found if there was some light[/spoiler]

Re; the Garden. I know how to manipulate objects, and have moved everything out of the way, but the door only opens about 1/4 of the way.

Not a big deal though.

I'm going to redo the mission after I finish because after looking at some of the key mappings, I realized I haven't utilized some of options available to me. I didn't even know there was a lantern I could use, (duh!), and had totally forgotten about flash bombs, mines, etc. haha. I've been just plodding around like a bumbling boob happy to be taffing again! I should have played more of the training mission.

Has anyone else had an issue with the slow match? I pick it from inventory, use the "drop" key which is supposed to put it in my hand, but nothing happens. I've tried remapping it but same thing.

I'll try a fire arrow and see if that works, but would like to figure this out. Every other key mapping seems to be working.

Thanks

mgeorge: The only situation I can think of is if you are obstructed from dropping. I'm not even sure of that. Try making sure you are not too close to anything at the centre of your view screen. Also try dropping a readable. Most of them, probably all, can be dropped. They need to be in the inventory not being read when you drop them to the carry position.

What keys have you tried? I don't think any of the shift keys work on their own. And are you using the settings menu or doomconfig.cfg manually? If you mistype eg, apostrophe then that's about the only other thing I can think of that would stop a key working.
