I found it I found it

I was following the tracks which curve off in wrong direction. Facing the warehouse 16 door, turn left. Go across street toward wagon. Walk past wagon to wall. Look right and there is a set of stairs. Go down stairs and walk straight. The door is on right side of walkway. Mine was running pitch black in this area so I turned up the Gamma on my Nvidia card which helped but this area was still pitch black. Look at floor until you see the label.

Yay!!!

I exited the game (again) and went back in and now I have third person again. But now I have another question! How do you combine the syringe and the pipe? I have 15mm and 16mm sizes- just not sure how to make the blowpipe!

Hi, I'm thinking of getting this game. I've enjoyed R2R and Serpent of Isis. I like challenging games. Do you think this one would be good? Any others?

Thanks in advance.
Sorry to **** in BUT try the file game Syberia 1 & 2 if you like these kind of games this one as you can see comes in 2 parts I got them and enjoyed it so much.Its a great game to play plus Dracula rigin is another one that I have and then there's The Egyptian Prophecy that also is a good one.Sherlock Holmes I have a feeling that I made a miss take with this one it just doesn't stand up to the others that I have.But thats me.

if you like a good challenging game then try Dracula rigin - it will keep you wanting to go on and on til the end.

I'm so dissapointed in this game. It is so hard to move around I actually get motion sick. I wasted my money. I will not use my chips to purchase anymore games that I cannot review first.

Hey, Thanks for the comments. I think I'm going to pass on Sherlock and try Dracula instead.

I never saw a "create new dicussion" button, so I'll reply here.

The walkthrough say that "automaticaaly be back to Baker Street" after talking to Stenwick. Holmes will not repond to Stenick's question, so nothing happens. Is there another way to get there?

I've written out a working Stenwick sequence in the walkthrough thread. What did you miss?

It's in the in-game hints.
It's on the stack of sacks outside Harper's house, across the way from the Nepalese house.

I can't save. There is no option once I start the adventure to save my game. How can I do this? Do I need to reload the game? What's wrong

I purchased this game as stated it was a good game to play. Boy was i oh so wrong. I have had to restart the game so many times that i am about to uninstall it. At different sections of the game after restarting each time, the speech bubbles start turning grey and unreadable and then using either the esc key or even going into the inventory it is all grey and unreadable. I even went out and purchased a new graphics card and it is still doing it. Does anyone else have this same problem ?? Cheers

pjmadden, there's no autosave. Press Esc for the system options menu.
aces13, I think you need to get technical assistance. Click on the green envelope for BFG technical support.

I'm in whse. 12. I've hooked the rope or cable to the large door, and I've pushed the big 'tub' down to the platform, where the other end of the rope or cable is. But I can't figure out how to hook the rope/cable to the big tub, so I can push the tub back and subsequently raise the large door. Plz help. Thanks. Also, how can I find the walkthrough for SH:The Awakened? Thanks. I found the walkthrough by searching for it. But I'm still having trouble with the image on the wall, after lifting the large doors and going down into the tunnel. I clicked on the pedastal, but can't get the image that's highlighted to match the third image on bar table, Actually, I'm confused by 'bar table'. There are images on the wall, (none on far left of wall), and then the smaller highlighted section of the WALL at the bottom right of the screen. These symbols change and are just the opposite of what's drawn on the larger wall. ??? Please help. I'm stuck. Thanks for any assist.
