im amused :)
a piece of advice- anytime you play a mission that has something "locked" such as that gate, always try your lockpicks on that object. thats like saying "why doesnt this locked door open?" when in fact you've not tried your tools on it!:joke:

Actually, I've been guilty of the same thing myself, amievil. :o Sometimes, you just don't get the right distance away from the object and you assume that you can't pick it when you can. There's a couple of green safe doors in Timoteus that have fooled a lot of people for the same reason. :)

Well, I have a confession to make. :tsktsk: I haven't been back to this mission yet to use the lockpicks, but I don't think I ever tried them. I frobbed the gate, and since it has a guard patrolling so close, what I did was to look for a lockbox to pick. I assumed (for some dumb reason) that this particular gate would have had to have a lockbox to pick it open. Since I couldn't find a lockbox, I assumed I couldn't pick it ...:eww:
Oh well, back to the drawing board.:erg: :laff:

Fret not, BadArm, I also looked around for a bit for a switch or button to open those gates. After a while, I tried the lockpicks. Crouch off to the side when you pick the lock so the guard doesn't see you.

I did. I've now completed part 1 and am onto part 2, I just came out of the sewers so there's no problems yet.
But Nightwalker was right about what she said. I can't remember how often the lockpicks, and sometimes even a key, hasn't worked because I was standing too far away from the door.
Taff On :cool:

Hi. I'm new here and I discovered the FMs very recently. Since I haven't been able to find anywhere online walkthrough for this mission I've attempted to make one myself in a very amateur try. Tried to ghost it, but I couldn't also find all loot.
