Thx,
will try it now

Well, nope. If there ever was a book, I probably put it away...
Just to avoid misunderstandings. It's a bedroom (1 bed) furnished completely in blue and gold. There is a little box on the table just left to the wall.
I already visited that room (as proven by the opened box :)) ). I think books cant be carried, so it must have been a scroll?
Well, near the prison I dumped two scrolls. One scroll (letter of bix or somethiong like that) does show quite clearly how they became undead. Is this the right scroll? Do I have to open it a specific page? Do I have to read it very long?
Or is it another scroll? Or is it somewhere else? Or did I just misdump the right scroll?
Well, in this case, I would have to try to re-visit every room to find my leftovers. :))
Or is the right book somewhere else?
I wish I would know how to find that out using dromed :))
Parat on 20/6/2001 at 22:56
well, acording to dromed there should be a read book next to the moneybox.
i dont know dromed well enough to figure out whether i could have carried that book away...
i guess i'll have to search for it.
Parat on 20/6/2001 at 23:16
Hey, I'm learning a lot about dromed.
Well, I'm quite sure I read this book. I just read what it says in the book file, and it did sound familiar.
Nevertheless, I probably need to reread it. So, does anyone know if there is a way to extract the whereabout of a specific item from a safe file? Well, is there a way?

Ok, Parat, you're gonna hate this.... :(
I have a sneaking feeling you're playing with Thief Gold... and unfortunately that particular goal doesn't work with TGold (I implemented it back when everyone was using TDP). So, if you read the red diary in the bedroom with the pretty lady picture, then you found the book which gives you a new objective... but that won't happen in TGold.
I need to fix this and I think I'm gonna release v1.1 of Bloodstone which fixes this.
Sorry for any probs...
Parat on 21/6/2001 at 00:19
Well, actually I am playing with TDP, but I installed the patch in order to be able to play Thief Gold missions.
Well, as I experienced the change of objectives (to kill the warden's ghost), I assume that I accomplished that mission.
I will return to the camp pretending that the game would realize me to accomplish the mission.
It's okay if it's a bug. In fact, it would have been far worse if I had misplaced that book. I normally read them and drop them just right there.
Nevertheless, thanks kfgecko, great mission.

I'm a little confused :confused: kfgecko. I have Thief Gold, and I've never had a problem with your fine level, Bloodstone Prison. I just went in to check where to find the info for Parat, found the book, read it, and the objective checked off. I don't believe I got a new objective, though.
kfgecko on 21/6/2001 at 00:36
Really? You got the "kill Warden's ghost" objective? Ah... then you can continue. You'll need to kill the Warden...who has become a "Jiggiwiddi". There is a book in Cell Block 2 that tells of a Saint who did battle with a Jiggiwiddi and managed to kill it....... (a clue... a hah!)

Yeah, the "get book" works, but you don't get a new objective. Hmmm... now that I think of it... even TGold players should be able to finish Bloodstone on Expert, it's just they won't get the new "kill Warden's ghost" objective...
Can anyone confirm?

It's been quite a while, but I played Bloodstone on Expert in TG, and I finished the game just fine, but I don't remember any "kill Warden's Ghost" objective.
I hope you fix that, kfgecko. I'd love to revisit Bloodstone with the added objective. :)
