I know this is a new mission and all, so I hope someone can help me. I've been really enjoying it, but now it's becoming frustrating. I have to say it's very good for a first attempt at a FM. It's even good for a 2nd or 3rd try. I finally got the vault open. I did need some help on that.
[SPOILER]The # 6 did occur to me, but I didn't try it because the clue said "men standing facing each other" The actual # of "Men" facing each other is 0. There are 5 men standing facing 5 women. There is also one man walking back and forth. The 5 men standing are not facing each other, but rather next to each other. And as already pointed out, the 6th man isn't just standing, he pacing, and not really facing anyone. So this # should have been 0 not 6. On the other hand, I thought using the word Lager = 5 letters, on the beer bottle instead of the obvious word beer = 4 letters was ok. However, as a beer lover I'm constrained to point out that not all beers are a lager beer. But Ok, I got the vault open.[/SPOILER]
On to the next problem:
I've found the workshop key, but I can't seem to find the workshop? I have found 2 metal doors which I cannot open. I can't pick them, nor does the key work. Is this a bug, or am I missing something? I also haven't found all the loot yet, and I think I've been every where except in these 2 rooms. An odd thing is that one door makes noise when I frob it, and the other does not. Can anyone offer some assistance here?
But as I said, this has been a very enjoyable mission.:thumb:

Ok, I looked some more and found another door.
[SPOILER]This one was in the basement and the workshop key opened it.[/SPOILER]
But I'm still short on loot. I have 2529 of the required 3200. Can anyone give me some ideas as to where it may be? I'll bet it's behind one of those 2 other doors I can't open. I was thinking...
[SPOILER]one of those doors should be the library door, and not capable of being opened, as explained in a note some where. But what about the other door, can it be opened and how?[/SPOILER]

Bad Arm, where have you found the workshop key?
And where is the hard evidence?
In the room of the servant under the safe can you find a lever. That was in the room where you have found the note.
Thanks.

These are not hints, but actual answers to your questions. Don't read it if you wanted hints.
[SPOILER]The workshop key in under the bed where Watts sleeps. Actually it's not under his bed, it's under the bed next to him. The hard evidence is to be found in the workshop.[/SPOILER]

Very well done, Thief13x!:thumb:
I enjoyed the mission and now I'm almost finished, I just have to find enough loot - stuck on about 3000 just like Melissa.

that was defenatly one mistake i made. I created all those people in the barracks facing each other dead last. That is somthing that i may have to change because its confusing, before, the only men standing facing each other was on the sparring area out back beside the bridge (6) he's right. I am very sorry about this and i might consider doing somthing about this, because your right it is confusing.
About the loot objective, one of the things i hate about some missions is where you get all your other objectives and are running around looking for 100 loot or so. I didn't want to create this mission this way and i do apoligise. There is 3432 loot in my mission but i hid some of it. Have you grabbed all the golden pots off of each stand in the main halls? if so, check the bathroom, beside the toilet is some change the fell out of somone pocket:cool: Also, there is a moneybag with some coins that have fallen out on the chair in the dining room. And if your still running low, did you check the main entrance? 2 pots of gold on the mantle and 1 ring behind the flowerpot on the stand, plus 2 rings in the lockeroom under the benches. I hope this helps and thanks for the compliments!
Timmy
p.s, i am going to be updating my map changing a few things and fixing some textures that arn't working, it should be up for download in about 24 hrs or sooner from the same location as the last.:thumb:

if any of you are stumped on anything, im going to be posting a complete walkthrough along with reveiws on my site shortly. of course it will be in a link with a warning so, you won't get flashed or anything like that:cool:
Preno on 12/3/2003 at 20:24
I got the pots from the main entrance but otherwise I think I've missed most of the loot you mentioned...
And if you're going to make a patch, fix the lockers, too. One of them is not finished, it's just a solid block instead of a locker with some space inside. (I think it's on the right side)

How do you get at this key? I can see it but can't get near enough to highlight it.
Can't seem to move it with broadheads either.
