About 2 hours in to this mod, been pretty interesting ride so far. I have... 5 skulls. On floor 5 currently, with two keys. Only the Life stone though. I feel like I'm going to be doing a lot of backtracking very shortly. Only 6 secrets found so far, but I did find the Alien idol at least. Cool mod, sir.

Help on Level 8 Dreamland:

I Have explored everywhere I can think of. I have put both gems in the eyes. I have a heavy decorated key. The gate at gem eyes is not opening. All I can do now is leave and return back to other plane. Hint says it should be linear now. I have the Red and Blue Gem. I am missing green. Where is it?

you have to put 3 gems into the head... but I guess the result is optional. Anyway, there is a 3rd path with a Warden holding a gem. Have you managed to close two diagonal pits not far from the plane portal?
Also, there is a ladder down to level 9 very close to the portal, have you found it?

I think I figured it out. I was not fast enough to close those 2 pits where you had to strafe and lick them at the same time.

I just completed your MOD. It was an awesome experience. Thanks for creating it. I really like the non linear exploration and the story itself. I laughed at the final dialog with myself. It is impressive all the new assets and functions that were used in this MOD. Thank you again!!

I have a few suggestions:
As a completionist I want to get everything. It would be great if you created a list of secrets (even if it just says how many are in each level) I ended with 27/34.
For the English version find someone who can edit/help with the writing (Just a refinement issue)
Offer a way to play through the game with a character from a previous playthrough and scale the enemies accordingly as well as the hired party members.

Hope I get to experience another one of your MODs in the future. Thanks

Hi there,
Wonderful mod, I was dead in the level 5 by these damn spiders, one party member remaining, was hard, I reloaded my savegame this afternoon, find the entry in the level 3, I suppose the reliquary, that all peoples are talking, is the room with a round stone table and three altar? it's on the way to the stairs of the level 4.
I have place a golden dragon and a golden cup, howww surprise, the "torchs"? lights on!
I have returned near the pit to the level5, then jump again, but while jumping in the pit I have launch a item on the plate on the right, there was an explosion, then I fall in the pit.
This time I didn't get killed by the spiders, dont understand why, I suppose I was tired yesterday when I have trying! :)
I found the death pit keys, found three keys, found the teleport and the troll behind the southern wall, then the spirit pendant, then I return back with the stairs. And return where the explosion appears, to the barikule tomb.
Now I'm stuck in front of the barikule tomb, with the buttons and rune symbols. Please have you any hints to resolves these one?
I m carrying 3 skulls (julius, konrad and bron) and 4 stones, life, earth, death and balance, are these items useful?

hey, try the following:

you have to click buttons in a certain sequence. You can figure it out from one of your dreams, where pits open behind you as you go through the labyrinth with runes on the walls...

the skulls will be useful later, but I think you need more of them... probably you missed the part of the 1st level (with the library)

stones can be used to teleport between portals, try it :)

kill the figure, take the backyard key, go back to the 1st level and open the door out - end of the game :)
