Woah. I suppose a replay is in order :)
Did you manage to ghost the thieves beneath the butcher's? Also, how did you descend into water without second-alerting everybody around?
Oh, and, did you manage to bless the Builder's Rattle without alerting the apebeasts? :)

I didn't actually start my ghost run yet. I did a blackjack run and tried to note the areas that would be difficult for ghost. I forgot about the blessing of the hammer. I guess using the fire arrow there might be difficult yes. I just did the spider in the sewer real quick since you mentioned it in your comment.

Finally I am able to play this FM! However, I'm stuck: I've found the hammer library key, but for the life of me, I can't figure out what to do with it! There's nothing to frob in the church library. :(
EDIT: And of course, not even a minute later, I find it. Well, that space for the key did NOT stand out at all. :P Of course, now I've got St. Merek's Hammer and no idea what to do with that. Ugh.

Hello there, and glad to hear you are able to play now! Would you mind sharing what you did, to help some of the other players who have had issues?
Use
Merek's hammer down in the crypts. Go to the graveyard to find a way down into there.

I downloaded TafferPatcher v. 2.0.17, ran it and made sure to select "Patch 1.24" in the startup menu. Actually, the rest can be found here: (

Short version: I finally have NewDark!
P.S. Thanks for the tip. :)

Great, thanks for posting that, and for playing!

I have returned to announce that I have stolen ALL THE CAKES. All of them. :cheeky:
But I do have a few questions. In the hammerite crypt, there are two locked chests on high shelves that I can't reach with my lockpicks and none of my keys open. What's to be done?
Also, in the sewers (with the spider) that leads to the garden shop there's another part with an opening in the ceiling I can't reach. The garden shop can be reached simply by climbing up on the crate that is already there, but the section connected to it has no such crate. How am I to get up through the hole?
Finally, I believe I am to kill some kind of monster down by the shore. Is the monster that invisible zombie thing with all the flies wandering around the room just off the canal?

Say good-bye to the present layout of your waistline, then.:ebil:

I think someone mentioned he/she was able to reach the chests from below at a certain spot. No idea whether that works. I, on the other hand, jumped at the shelves as if I wanted to smash Garrett's teeth, then mantled up onto the shelves and chests and picked them from up there. If that does not work, check whether
NewMantle is enabled in your
cam_ext.cfg file.

I do not remember that place, but my notes do not mention climbing up at this other hole. However, a faint memory suggests that this may be a hole which you can pass through only from above.

"by the shore" description, and indeed, it
can be killed. Saving your game before trying is a wise thing, though.:p

Lady Taffer & beauchlein - you both have me giggling this morning, you are funny!
LT: Yes, the only way to pick open the Hammerite chests is to mantle on top of them first. Also, yes - if you are playing on expert in particular, you want to kill the invisible bug ghost. Finally, I think the spot you are talking about in the sewers beauchlein is correct about - it's the basement of the inn, which you can rope arrow back up to, but have to go to the garden shop first to get ropes of course.
I thought about making the cakes not-frobbable, but then what's the fun in that? Garrett deserves a little excess sometimes ;-)

Plus he parkours all over the place, and the muscle training rope arrow climbing is, wew!
