Just finished this one, and had a lot of fun. This surely is the best mission you made so far, darthslair, I liked all the little touches. Original escape from your cell, some quite original objectives - definetily worth a replay!
One thing I didn't understand though - Why could Basso just walk out the door when he got another prisoner's clothes?
darthsLair on 7/7/2010 at 22:48
Basso can :Walk out of prison because he is wearing Kary Grant III Clothes , and the former was due to be released. A bulletin was posted by the Warden to inform the Guards of his release, and basically not to interfere with his departure. Basso brought his own keys, so he already had access to all of the prison, including the Foyer Gate. Garrett just had to bring his keys to him, and the disguise, and Basso would do the rest. In Basso's Nature as a Character in The first mission in TMA, he freely walks in to the mansion to free Jennivere, once a path was cleared.
I also depicted his free release, as a different way, other than the usual..clear the path type method.
Glad you enjoyed it !Basso Objective on Hard and Expert Only:
In my rush to submit my contest entry to Jason by midnite of the dead line, I failed to change the Read me, so that folks playing on Easy are playing on a difficulty when Garrett was not yet aware of Basso's arrest and imprisonment for Murder, Hence no "Letter from Jenny" The Easy difficulty would just lead to a greater Challenge on Hard and Expert where the Story Line fits the game play. I think most Taffers here play on Hard and Expert anyway to get the full benefit, but I do apologize for anyone who has played this thinking that they were to help Basso escape on the Easy Difficulty.
The Revised editon is in Shale Bridge at this time, but wont be release until the 1st part of August. The Revised edition will have some terrain issues fixed, along with added game materials. More Voice Outs from Garrett, to help tell the unfolding story, and a couple of Conversations Between Hammerites, and One between Garrett and Basso.
2- days before I scheduled beta-testing, and had beta testers waitng on the 19th I had 2 major Computer Crashes. Leading to the death of my game building computer, and Losing hundreds of files I was to use to finish it.
I was able to borrow a puter to finish it, but it has been hectic, and a hundred hours of refinement to be able to submit it for this contest.

WOW! :thumb:
So many different ways to go, this one will get replayed countless times. Kind of short game play, but easily made it as one of my all time favorite missions. I ended up about 850 short, so guess I better get back in there. :weird:
Thank you!

Still playing, but really enjoying this one darthslair. Very inventive. I've dumped nearly everything moveable ontoBasso's bed. His cell is so crowded he can't turn around.
I'm having trouble with the Warden's medallion...hint?

Hmm, I am virtually finished but I can't find the uniform for Basso so he and I can leave. I've checked Cell 18 and can't find a uniform, so stumped.. Outright answer please, thanks! :cheeky:
Good mission BTW, I noticed the WANTED posters, haha.

better borrow something from cell 18 I must have missed something then, cause I checked there and no uniform... :confused:

Disguise:In Cell no. 18, Kary Grant III will be sitting on his Bunk. Look below the Cell window on the floor. When you go to release Basso in Cell no. 3, just highligt the bed with the Disguise showing in inventory and hit your control buton on your keyboard, and the same with Basso's Key Ring.
Read:Jenny's Letter to Garrett in Cell 11 (Garretts Cell) on his bunk to obtain the Release Basso objective. It also gives her instructions on placing the Disguise and Key Ring.
The Release Basso Objective is not in Normal Difficulty. Just Hard and Expert. It will be implemented in the Revised edition which is in Beta Testing now.:)
Thanks everyone, I am glad you are enjoying it, and getting through it okay.

Shadows, you need to trigger the disguse showing up (I had this problem too). You need to read a notice in one of the rooms near the front gate.
Darthslair, great FM just what i've been craving, thanks!
