T2 FM: Reflections in Red (11/14/25)

This mission made me update to 1.28 and it went smooth, whew, no problems in the mission whatsoever. Obviously this mission is contender for the mission of the year, amazing work. Wait, why don't we have yearly FM awards? :confused:

Can't get any doors to open, or make a sound.
Tried fresh install T2, then T2Fix 1.28, and then update to NewDark 1.28.
Still no joy; what am I missing?

Thanks.

You don't need T2Fix 1.28 and then Newdark 1.28. T2Fix 1.28 already gives you the required version of Newdark. It's likely that doing this unnecessary step caused your issue. I'd suggest doing a fresh install + T2Fix 1.28 again.

Question: There's a note complaining about the "unholy effigies of foul Trickster magick" that Beatrice is leaving on the trees. What does this refer to? My guess: the birdhouses?

Some trees have little twig effigies dangling from their branches.

Awesome, a new skacky mission. :)

I just took a quick look at the start of the mission. I wonder why the framerate is taking a hit in some places (sometimes I only get 50 to 55 FPS). Neither the GPU nor the CPU seem to be overly busy. About 30 to 40% GPU utilisation, and 10 to 20% CPU. Weird.

I am seeing the same issue, at the start - on my system (9800X3D/4080@3440*1440) I am seeing FPS drop below 30.. Is there any tweaked I can do to the config files to try and improve this..?

I am having trouble finding the way out with the beast tracking my every footstep. I am at the central doors no idea what to do.

edit: Luckily the beast stuck running in a wall and managed to find the wine cellar key. Escaped and got the explosives. How do I get in back in the wine cellar with all the doors sealed?

where did you find the wine cellar key and the cell key to Agnes as both of these keys still have eluded me

had to take the laboratory key first, from the large room the beast killed the intruders in the scripted scene.
Didn't find Agnes key. Playing on easy. Not sure if it's related

thanks that is the issue, I for some reason cannot find the room where they were killed, I am truly an old taffer :rolleyes:

dkessler: To get back inside with the doors sealed, I had to bash down a door with my sword. Not sure if there is any other method.

As for the room you're looking for, I think it's the east wing, all the way to the end of the hall (past two bedrooms that have access to the attic where you saw the killings).

I must say I'm pretty impressed by whichever of those thugs got onto the roof, blocked all the doors, then got off the roof, making it completely and totally inaccessible! I'd love to find a way back there. I'm curious whether we're following the wine deliveries to our next mission...
