No bug, MQ's Maze of Madness works as intended.
Ok, guess I'm plainly stupid AND proving it. Still confused though, close to Madness...

I was in the Maze, took the 2 items, went back and got stuck in the alternate hall. Here I did the lever thingy you taught me and here I am, save and sound in the Maze again. But how am I able to go back the way I got in? What is the Noisy Control? Am I here all alone? Something is happening here and I don't know what it is!

Thanks for the list of secrets!! :) Would it be possible to include a list with the golden treasures? They are exclusive to the Master Quest, right?

Another question:
SpoilerShow
on level 5, with the room with the pit room puzzle, I get a colored gem interface.. There are five gems to click, each representing one of the pressure plates (I presume). The fifth *usually* seems to reset the pits to their open state..

I've mapped out the five different plates and their effects on the pits.. Ive been at it for 30 minutes of clicking but I just can't seem to open them.. Am I doing something wrong? Is there an easier way to solve this puzzle? I'm just not very good at these kinds of puzzles.. :)

In case you ment that none of the treasures is in any of the 120 secrets you are right. In theory one could say MQ has 120 + 7 secrets.

Did you read the wall text? It tells which task needs to be done.

The seven golden treasures were in the original game as well, just in different locations. I'm still working on the secrets list, then I'll the treasures and a couple other things.

And as far as I know, it's not possible to get all the trap doors shut at the same time, sorry

Again, thanks for the fast replies! :)

Yes, I meant the golden treasures.. I am on level 5 and have found 2 so far.. I barely played the original game, the mod got me interested in trying it again..

So, I don't need to close all the trapdoors anyway? Good to know.. I'll move on! :)

Guess I´m stuck fo good...
SpoilerShow
Ok, reached the 13rd level, but I cheated with the console at some points - providing me keys ;) - Anyway, I "ressurected" the cube and entered the portal. Back to the tomb of designers on level 11. Now I´m trapped trying to open the doors, inf front and behind me. Found the three hidden buttons on the west and east side, but the doors won't open. Besides, I don't have the weapon of power yet.

Also, I´d like to know what's up with the 15 levels...it has only 13, after all? Or after defeating the cube there is something more? :mrgreen:
