Well, it's not for everyone's eyes, so it's hidden. You can find it in Joinas' hideout below the "Stumbled Traveler Inn". To find it, carefully inspect the area around the statue in a niche in the hideout. You should find a switch there, although it's very hard to see. If you still don't find it, inspect the left wall of the niche in which the statue stands, and watch for either a small switch to become highlighted, or notice when an onscreen text may appear. There is what you need to use. Once you did that, look around again and notice that another niche to the left of the fireplace has opened. Jonas' diary waits in there for you.

Thanks! I thought it might be somewhere around those statues. I'll just keep searching and see if I can find it this time.

Why did I choose to play expert mode on this FM? :tsktsk:

Doesn't matter, this part is the same on all difficulty levels.

These missions are a hodgepodge of different techniques

I recently decided to replay them in search of inspiration and... I couldn't finish them :D

in the v1.7 I don't see a non-KO guard patrolling the front area. - are there any other guards removed when playing on expert? (I only started playing v1.7 so haven't yet checked other parts of the map yet for changes)

He's removed in v_1.7, there's a few other minor changes but that's the only guard removed I noticed.

PS. There are no changes in mission 2 apart from upgraded scripting which now works correctly.

I also just started v1.7 and another missing guard was a stationary archer on the parapet off the lower level guardhouse where you first enter, and I believe another stationary sword guard by the closed town gate in the square isn't there now either.

I thought it was that archer who wrote the 'Johanson' readable in the upper guardhouse saying the captain was impressed by his marksmanship so had stationed him on the wall/parapet. Also the pickax isn't where it was in v1.6 and I haven't found it elsewhere yet but expect I will.

The pickaxe location hasn't changed, if you haven't found it in the same location you may have a problem, and the stationary archer on the parapet is still there in v_1.7.

PS. What difficulty are you playing on? The pickaxe is not there on normal difficulty in either version, as it's not needed.

Dahenjo on 4/9/2024 at 03:48

I was playing on normal without realizing, restarted on expert and so far it's the same as v1.6 except for the one patrolling guard missing out front.

And thanks for the updated walkthroughs.

If I'm not mistaken, the main point of 1.7 was to add LoD.
