Man I'm totally lost in this fm as have found all voodoo signs and the mask quest won't work but only one I've done so far is the dewdrop quest.I've got up to the pagan standing next the locked box but can't find a way to get the where the train go's past
Lobster on 18/12/2005 at 07:21
OK, I don't get it
[SPOILER]I don't understand how I can get anything through that broken window. I've thrown my vine arrow up there, but nothing seems to break it further, I've shot at it with arrows, tossed flower pots at it and smashed it with my blackjack, nothing seemsto break it, By the way Slugtgs, you seem distressed by the fact that some people seemed to find some sort of mask in the wrong place, if this is true then you really do need a few people to beta test this mission. It may make it more ejnoyable[/SPOILER]

Opps! [SPOILER]One of the keepers fell in the water. [/SPOILER] :D
In the area [SPOILER]below the train I die when I get close to the drain pipe.[/SPOILER] :confused:
Lobster
[SPOILER] I was able to get the key by jumping off of the rope onto the ledge in the corner. [/SPOILER]
Lobster on 18/12/2005 at 07:47
Ahhh thanks John, it seems so obvious now!
[SPOILER]I got the key, but it won't open anything for me? Not the crate nor the room inside the enter sign (by the petted plant). I haven't found any "mask" either[/SPOILER]
Yhis mission is incredible by the way. So much fun trying to figure out what to do!
Sluggs, I like how you won't let us know anything. Don't let on unless it's a bug.
edit: I was just able to pick the room beyond the enter sign,funny that I couldn't do it before. Nothing worthwile beyond it for me though, although that spinning record was cool.

I have found 5 voodoo signs but a message came up at the last one saying only one more to go. The ones I have found so far are
[SPOILER]1 - Above umbrella, 2 - inside 2nd ladder access in tunnel 1, 3 - below overhead pipe in pagan area, 4 - at end of accesway tunnel over unfrobbale hatch, 5 - in bottom of pipe tunnel in gas area.
Where is the 6th one?[/SPOILER]
Nightwalker & Lobster
[SPOILER]I just walked into the enter sign at the beginning and it transported me into the room where the key is, and also the other one in the book.
[/SPOILER]

[SPOILER]Right at the beginning a black bad guy (Keeper?) also walked into the canal and drowned - no matter how many times I restarted.[/SPOILER]
Anyone
[SPOILER]What do you do with the spiderman mask?[/SPOILER]

From a longtime lurker around here (out of the thievy closet) just gotta say...
I'm taffin' like a maniac, taking potshots from guards, and am totally frustrated with completing my objectives... yeeesss! Awesome mission, Sluggs... thanks!
PS: Does anyone else imagine the Benny Hill chase theme when being chased by guards? Or is it just me? Hmm...
The_Dude on 18/12/2005 at 13:02
This is certainly very original and great fun but a little buggy (needed betatesting!).
I have 1000 gold but the objective has not ticked off and all the other mini quests have not appeared in the objectives screen.
However any FM with a random bunny-hopping guard gets my vote.
Edit:
I have no idea what to do with the mask or who dewdrop's killer is.
The_Dude on 18/12/2005 at 13:18
You also die if you jump on the crates.. :weird:
OK this is weird. I couldn't find the umbrella so I went into Dromed and there it was. But it's not there in Thief on expert. :weird:
So how do I get up there?

I also noticed several gfx glitches. The first was [SPOILER]when I looked for the 6th voodoo icon behind the gasoline tank. I had looked behind it several times earlier and saw nothing, but after DealaSteal said it WAS there I went back and after several attempts I saw the icon. Sometimes it was just a single horizontal line and other times the proper icon.[/SPOILER] It seems to come and go at random.
Also the fish in the main canal have pale blue strings attaching them to an invisible point in the middle of the canal. Just like they were remote controlled.
That mask and dewdrops killer has me buggered also! Lots of switches and such that are not frobbable (or maybe not frobbable yet until something else is done somewhere?) around the map.
The several clocks scattered around telling you your own local time are a tricky touch.
