Its on a little table or shelf in the cell. Its not hidden. Have you read the note with instructions how to use the holy symbol and the candle?

I have read the instructions again but no symbol on little shelf?? The only thing may have happened is that I jumped on some of these shelves and maybe it got knocked down and disappeared?? :confused:I will try to load an earlier save and try again???

I'm almost at the end, in front of the fence's housedoor but can't go in. I hear Garrett say something that I cannot understand clearly. What am I missing?

Any help would be appreciated

You have to complete all objectives befor you can go in.:cheeky:

Well, thanks pwl - but despite all my efforts I still have no objectives shown - so I do not know exactly what to do.
I have completed the "newspaper" objective (found 6 papers). What else is to do?

You have the right objectives but I had to read at least one if not more of the papers twice for it to check off :confused:

For anyone having problems with the symbol disappearing I found out why. When I first picked it up I had not read the instructions yet, and it says that it is nothing so I dropped it!! it then fell through the floor and was gone. I reloaded a save when I got the dungeon key and went straight down and in fact it did the same thing!!:confused: So read the instructions first!!

Moderators: I did not see the need for spoiler tags but if it is needed I am sorry.:sweat:

I think in my game the newspaper objective ticked off correctly. As I read the sixth paper the "ding-dong" sounded and when I checked the objectives list, a second of the little squares was checked.
I wonder what Garrett says exactly at the fence's door. It sounds like "better use (or loose?) the ... first". But I have noting in my inventory to "use".

Edit: Firehawk or someone else can you be more specific I have gone over every inch of all the cells where the puppets are. Do you have to pickup the potion first? I have tried both ways and I can not find it?? or are you talking about the area where you start the mission?

You are in the right place with the puppets. It is on the top shelf of one of the three shelved tables in one of the cells.

If you had tried to pick it up before you had read the Bless Instructions it would have been treated as a junk object and so you might have then put it down somewhere else.

Yeah, can't get this to work at all. Is there any kind of visual indication/change that shows the dagger is frobbable? When i have rung the bells the dagger looks exactly the same up from the tower and when i exit the church. To me it looks like the ringing has no effect at all.

When you ring the second bell there is a change to the emitter around the dagger that stands out over the original one. However, there is a tight time limit which begins from the moment you ring the first bell. Start with the bell at the top of the tower with the broken stairs and on the way down jump over the railings of the balcony, then run up the outer edge (the stairs can cause Garrett to get stuck unless you go along the outer edge) of the stairs to the next bell. This is the fastest way and I know it is possible, as I have done it many times on play-test, with seconds to spare (Tedious, but had to be done!)

This is a bug that I missed in play-test!
What the (my) voice says is "Gotta loose the heat first" (sound recording\editing devices are naff). Meaning that if there are any guards in the area you can't end the mission. The bug is that it includes unconscious or dead bodies! Just move any of these to about halfway down the alley way and try again.

Adsk1, Thank you very much for your efforts.

I now would like to ask you another favor: could you eventually post a list with the objectives for every mission in the campaign - so we players can learn what we have to do ? Please, please ?

Greetings
Urumo

I shall attempt to gather a list of Objectives for all with this issue this week. In the mean time have you tried the fix with the .EXE file in the GL folder that I posted earlier? Thread post 131 has worked for at least one user.
