Scara's Broken Fireplace

Post by ggrotz »

I recently pulled TNM out for another run, and ran across a bug that I keep forgetting about to mention before. I can't find mention of it in search, either. Basically, you unlock the lever, leave it unlocked, but sometimes on subsequent trips to Scara's office the fireplace won't open upon frobbing that lever. So, no reward for you.

While I'm sure there's no plans to address it (this is with the 1.04+ patch), is there a way into that fireplace so at least there can be a kludge fix to it?

No. DX doesn't allow you to pick up things when doing noclip (specifically "ghost"). If you unghost back there, you die since the space is too small.

Have you tried using opensesame on both the "door" and the "knob"? Try multiple times also, dx is a bit weird.
