Maybe I'm the dumbest here! :)
I have talked with Thesius, got new objectives. Opened the storage and collected items. Got blackjacked a novice and stole his key in the maps room. Where to go now? I traveled scripture room, dining room, many other rooms. There were some magic room too, where I blackjacked a keeper-like man, and also stole his key. (He was looking at a bookshelf recently, and a haunt patrolled clockwise in the same room)thank you in advance!
Mh, I just have to say that I'm stuck at the same area as ticky. I tried to explore everything for two hours, but I just got two kinds of keys, a silver one and a green one. Someone said earlier that you have to found a book, but where to look for it..? Thank you!
BTW: It's a very athmospheric mission, thanks, DrK!

Thanks for the help, I found it!
Alright now did I bug out the mission or am I missing something obvious again?
I completed all objectives and placed the Book of Names on the little table in Thales's room. It triggered his conversation that the mission is done and to go look for Soul Vlain. However, the Book of Names objective did not tick off for me. And when I went back to Soul Vlain, he just stood there and did nothing.

Ticky and Pistole2k
First you have to enter the Tower. Go in the main room, the room with a huge stained glass window. on 1st floor, there is a way to the souls quarters on one side, and a grid door on the opposite side, open it with south star key.
paintings:
there are 15 of them, and to access the one above the dining room, you have to find a secret in the storage room nearby (look for a lever near the smoke wall)
The walking zombie in the elevator is a souvenir from the first mission to freak you out, nothing more :ebil:
In fact he's guarding the entrance, he just allows the souls to pass, and gets rid of any kind of intruder. He considers yourself as a soul because you have the soul Heart in your inventory (this is only related to the story of the campaign). ;)

Avallon, this bug happened only to QJW during beta, and I never managed to solve it because everything has always worked fine with me. How am I supposed to solve a bug which doesn't exist with me ? I really don't understand why it doesn't work with a few of you...
The objective didn't tick off, but did it at least open an exit in the portals ?
Do you have something special installed in your thief 2 ? a graphic pack or custom scripts, I dunno...
Avallon on 14/5/2008 at 15:10
Hey DrK, I'm afraid not :(
I don't see any of the other gates open at the portals. Did I have to trigger another conversation from Soul Vlain to open it? Am I missing out on anything big if I'm really stuck here for good?
I uninstalled the graphics's pack before starting this mission and I have the usual Gaylesaver Scripts but I assumed that would be alright.
Pistole2k on 14/5/2008 at 15:12
I already have been in the tower for more then 10 times, but I didn't find anything in there. Maybe a little more direct tip? Thank you! :)
DrK on 14/5/2008 at 15:25
Avallon, try to remove the gaylesaver scripts.
I don't remember clearly how I created it but I think I put a trigroomsomething script on the book, so when you drop the book in the blueroom of thales quarters (dromed technical terms) it opens the exit and tick off the objective. There's nothing complicated in it, and it always works with me :confused:
The conversation with thales is activated once you got both the Living breath and the Dead shadow in your inventory, so it's not related to the book.
Pistole, just look at the top floor of the tower, there is a door to soul Vlain.
Btw, by Thales quarters, I don't mean his bedroom, I mean the main room with a giant table in its middle. Try to drop the book in front of the fireplace for example.
Pistole2k on 14/5/2008 at 15:28
... Okay, i just tried my lockpicks and it opened. The last time I used them I only used the one which won't open the door because I was too quick. Thank you!
DrK on 14/5/2008 at 15:39
lol in my missions, you mustn't be quick. You must take your time, be patient and explore... ;)
I'm just thinking about something, didn't telliamed release a script pack just as gaylesaver ? I thought the script I used was already inside the original game, but it might come from one of telliamed's scripts. This means, if you don't have telliamed scripts it won't work. I don't remember I installed custom scripts though...
Pistole2k on 14/5/2008 at 15:51
I didn't mean that I rushed through your mission, I just hit the lockpick button too quick. :D
I really love the athmosphere of this mission, you are always knowing that there is a threat surrounding you... :)
