Hello,
I am having a problem with the game. I am close to the end, and according to the walkthrough, I should be able to get into Richard's apartment building and then a bunch of stuff happens. (Trying to be vague here so I don't give anything away!) But I still get the "he doesn't seem to be home at the moment" line when I ring his doorbell. I looked to see if I skipped anything in the walkthrough, but it appears I've done everything. I got the thing at the factory, and promptly surrendered it; went to the shelter and got the bill for the safe-deposit box, then went to the box at the bank and read the thing; got the thing that Carol was threatened with at the factory; etc. I have tried to go a bunch of other places, but I'm just going in circles. It really looks like I can't do anything but to go to Richard's apartment building now so the story can proceed, but it's not letting me. Any advice, help, or saved games?
thank you!
Cathy

Cathy, did the janitor see you and talked to you?
Then use the door handle to enter Richard's apartment.
Good luck.

Cathy, in your first post, you talked about a save game.
I will send the one in the bank just before going to Svensson appartment and one just before entering the apartement.
Check your email in a few minutes.

Cathy, click 3, 5, 2, 1 and 4 in that order, without repeating the numbers (3, 3-5, 3-5-2......).
See if you can open the drawer.
Chief

Give me a few minutes jazz and let me see if I have a saved game anywhere near this area of the game. My guess right now is that it's just a question of pixel hunting.
Sue
Jazz go to the area of the roof where you can see machine number 132 and click on that number [she should comment on that]. Back out of the closeup and you should see that the window immediately to the left is cracked and there is a small hotspot that you can use the hammer on.

It isn't your reflexes cmcd, this part of the game needs to be patched then whacking him is a piece of cake. Let me find the patch for you and I'll post it here. Sue Find the patch here

I am also having trouble hitting his head, have downloaded the patch, it went into the folder of the game, but do I now just ignore that part of trying to hit him? and should I now have the 'passcard'??
Keep going, the feeling great at the end.

Widget, you still have to hit him to pick up his wallet while he is down. From the wallet, take the passcard.
Good luck.

Widget, you are suppose to have 5 seconds instead of 1.2 second to hit him.
After downloading the patch, did you install it in the game folder?
Chief
Edit: good for you. Near the end of the game now.
