I had just killed the woman in red with a big sword :angel: and I was wondering how to open the portal to get the loot [SPOILER]when I read that she was supposed to have the trigger on her belt or something. Good thing that GORT had another way of opening that portal, because the trigger must have gone up in smoke too [/SPOILER] :ebil:
GORT on 30/9/2004 at 18:11
Nah! The trigger didn't go up in smoke at all.
Do this...
[SPOILER]After you got rid of Christine III (Woman in red dress), search the statues to find a switch. This will open the right door of the catacomb interance. Go in there. Kill the ghost and you'll get that switch. :cheeky: While you are there, take Christine III's sword. :ebil: [/SPOILER]

trying to finish this one before i leave for kentucky thursday.
ok I have the code for the controls but can someone point me out the control room?
and also
[SPOILER]going into the library, if move from a certain spot in the doorframe, the alarm goes off, but as soon as i go back to that spot it stops[/SPOILER]
how do i pass this?
also:
[SPOILER]at the camera you turn by to get the code, if you turn right instead of left, youll come across a mechanist and a bugbeast in a room with three frobbable coat hooks, there is a pedestal outside this room, what am i supposed to do here?[/SPOILER]

Hey ShadowWolf, waz up!
The Control Room: [SPOILER]The double doors at the top of the staircase in the main enterance area. You will need a "blue" key that's located in the back room off the library.[/SPOILER]
Speaking of the library: [SPOILER]You can't stop the alarm, (as far as I know).[/SPOILER]
Bugbeast room: [SPOILER]Kill the bugbeast, (try to conserve at least two fire arrows though), don't waste them on the bugbeast, if you don't already know why, you will later. Inside the closet there is a secret, you get it by frobbing the third hook from the left (the other two are traps). Now go jump on the pedestel (this is another secret), as it's sinking run as fast as you can back to the camera and you will find a door has opened, you will have to jump up on the table, crouch, and get into the chamber before the door closes. If necessary, you can use the secret from the coat hook to assist.[/SPOILER]
Hope this get's you through. :)

Yep. [SPOILER]When you get into the large hall, behind the front door. DON'T OPEN IT!!! ...go up the starirs and unlock the double grey door in front of you. Beware, they're is a sleepy enemy in there. You don't want to alarm all guards, so take him out quitly, if possible. [/SPOILER]

Just go on and do your thing. [SPOILER]No other guards will get alarmed[/SPOILER]

[SPOILER]pick up a body somewhere and put it on the pedestal. It's a bit difficult, but when you climb the pedestal and let go of the body, it should do the trick. Walk quickly into the hallway again and check the walls, especially the one with the flowerpot table.[/SPOILER]
Have fun, Gloria Creep :angel:

Gloria, thanks for your help! :thumb: :cool:
All I've left to is find out how to escape
and
[SPOILER]I'm in the room with the "In memory of Christine III" picture . when i go into an adjacent room and frob a floating purse, the doors i came in from are now unfrobbable[/SPOILER]
is that supposed to happen?
GORT on 5/10/2004 at 05:06
Hey, GORT here. Hmmm, somethings wrong if there is a floating purse. :weird: An AI should be holding it. If those doors won't open, then I got one suggestion. Have an AI follow you towards that door. Usually, that is not suppose to happen at all. :tsktsk:
BTW: That picture of Christine III is a big clue. :cheeky: Look at it real good and you'll see.
ShadowWolf421 on 5/10/2004 at 05:14
Maybe the AI zapped himself right out of his boots with his sword and left his purse behind :laff: :laff:
ok im in the ghost library and I've a couple of questions:
[SPOILER]playing on hard, where is the holy water?[/SPOILER]
[SPOILER]I frobbed a book under the ledge where a female ghost is patrolling, what and where does this open?[/SPOILER]
and BTW, thank you too Oneof4 :thumb:
GORT on 5/10/2004 at 05:20
For the the books:
[SPOILER]Go for the hardest one to frob. (You'll have to be right under it and jump.)[/SPOILER]
For Holy Water:
[SPOILER]I'm unclear about expert, but on all of the other difficulies its on the second floor of the hidden library.[/SPOILER]

Hey GORT, I too had the "floating purse" in that room off of the meeting room. I remember in the dining hall there was an AI in the room directly to the left as you entered, but yeah the purse was suspended in mid-air, strange huh?
