OMG, [spoiler] breaking the stainglass window!!! Just like the note says *please don't break the windows* Like a dope I immediately think 'okay, hum dee hum' *whap* [/spoiler]... I totally fell into that trap. I should have taken the warning more literally. Instead, I probably woke up half my apartment when I got a nasty surprize. :eek:

It's so amazing this next generation of FMs...they keep getting more and more creative. Bravo, Chiefdreams!

This is definately one of the more athletic FMs...it kept me running. :sweat: Garret needs to get into better shape.

Well, I played for about 1/2 hour tonight and think its an awesome mission so far. Lots of custom stuff, good storyline, lots of routes to choose from, some spooky stuff...

I won't give away any spoilers but I am going to go break that window now :) (I'm right there).

Good Job Chief :D

This is a really great mission - but we need some help (we're playing in expert)!

1. How can we open the golden door down in the crypt?
2. We can't find either the mask nor the horn?!
3. What shall we do with the green meteorit?

:confused:

Is this mission related in any way to the classic horror film "The Abominable Dr. Phibes"? It is one of my favorite old movies.
- eep!

I love these old films.

I took from these films;

The Abominable Dr Phibes,
Die Monster Die,
The Young Sherlock Holms,
Son of Frankenstien

1. How can we open the golden door down in the crypt?
[SPOILER]There is a special key in a secet area inside the castle. See below for details.[/SPOILER] [SPOILER]Look in a fireplace.[/SPOILER]
2. We can't find either the mask nor the horn?!
[SPOILER]Mask - related to above. Horn - read all the books and scrolls. Look for gate.[/SPOILER]
3. What shall we do with the green meteorit?
[SPOILER]Nothing. It is eye candy.:)[/SPOILER]

It's more than just eye candy. Have you tried to pick it up and look real close at it?
Of course if you read the good Doctor's writings you might not want to. :D

Thanks to all of you for the responses. I'm glad to finally release a Thief FM.
For those of you that haven't yet it can be a scary thing. But rewarding too.
There are still more fun things to discover at the castle. I hope you all enjoy it.
I'm 80% done with part two.

I've hit a wall and need help:

I have the rosary key, the portal gate key, and the Armory key.
yet I can't find the doors to use them on. I feel like i've been everywhere.

[SPOILER]I've been in the lab (and i know there's a door with bloody hand marks [Nice Tex by the way] but can't figure out how to open it.[/SPOILER]

[SPOILER]I got into the Franken room, there's a chest that is locked and I read a note about Benny's stuff in there, but the drunk doesn't have a key on him.[/SPOILER]

[SPOILER]I've seen the wife, nothing to do?[/SPOILER]

[SPOILER]I read above about the crypt, can't find it.[/SPOILER]

I've read everything I could find but don't have a clue where to go/what to do.

I like the dragon teeth and haunt windows :) nice touches, especially the windows.

the fish tank is funny too, reminds me of the South Park with Kenny's killer fish LOL.

Chiefdreams on 2/4/2003 at 17:40

[SPOILER]all chests are pickable[/SPOILER]

[SPOILER]Bloody hands is just texture no door[/SPOILER]

[SPOILER]the wife/corpse is explained later[/SPOILER]

[SPOILER]armory is the sewer type door. the key has to be used twice. I'll fix in next release[/SPOILER]

[SPOILER]rosary is key for golden mask. crypt in graveyard[/SPOILER]
