Sherlock Homes:The Awakened

Hi,
I am having some trouble.I am at Warehouse 12. I am supposed to climb up the plank below the hanging cauldron. I am supposed to move the cauldron so that it is under the faucet close to the floor.
I can get on the plank and I even swung the cauldron once, but I do not know how I did it. I can't imagine how to get it under the faucet.
Can someone please help?

Stand on the plank and face the cauldron - move forward and as you move forward the cauldron is also pushed.
Go down once in a while and check where the cauldron is situated.

Hi again,
I now find that I cannot get Watson on the plank. I keep trying, but I just cannot get him up there. Any ideas?

Emerald you don't want Watson on the planks, just Sherlock. Just point him towards the planks and he should walk onto them for you.

I only have Watson. I can't find Holmes anywhere. How can this be?

You are Holmes. It's a first person game. So you climb the planks.
You only see Holmes during cutscenes.

I forgot that. I have tried and tried to point at the plantks, but Holmes does not get up there. I only managed it one time and then by accident.

Can you please tell me where you are standing so as to jump up on the plank. I got the kettle or whatever to sweing back and forth, but it did not go anywhere. This is getting so frustrating. One person said to point at the plank and Holmes would jump on. I have been up and down the the length of the planks and I am getting nowhere. Is there a spot that you need to be in?
I do not know if I am doing this right. I have never done the edit thing before. Yes-I am trying to fill that pot, but I can not get Holmes on the planks. I know where I am suppose to go and what I am supposed to do, hut I need to get him on the planks so that I can get in front of the pot and walk towards it. I just cannot get him up there. I have my cursor up there, but, but since the post dees not move, I know he cannot be on the planks.

Emerald are you trying to move the big pot to fill it with water?
If that's what you are trying to accomplish, the first thing you need to do is see how close the pot is to the faucet. You can look down where Sherlocks feet should be and then walk him up onto the plank. He needs to be almost dead center on the boards and then just click to move him forward. The pot kettle will advance as long as it's in front of you.
Once you have it near the spigot get off the planks and fill the pot with water then keep moving Sherlock and the filled pot along as far as it will go to the back wall.
Please don't stack your posts. Just use the edit button to add new thoughts.

Hi, sorry but I need HELP. I've attached the rope to the bucket filled with water but how do I move the bucket to open the hatch.

Hi Wena and welcome to Gameboomers

Are you talking about moving that big kettle like thing that is full of water to open the hatch?
Have you tied the rope to the door of the hatch? Is the other end near the ramp tied to the kettle/cauldron? If you've done that, all you should need to do is cut the rope to open the hatch.
Good luck

Sue

I am confused. I was asked to use the edit feature and not to stack (?) my posts, but when I did that, I did not get answers to my post.
I still cannot get Holmes on the plank. I asked before if there was a special place to move towards in order to get on the plank. I am so very frustrated. I have moved from one end to the other. I know that I have to get him behind the pot and move towards it to get it to move. Do I try to climb up on the ends of the plank platform or point towards the middle? I have tried everything.

You can post a new one (and it is not stacking) if there are posts after you. Sue answered you after that stacked postings - so you can post a new one.

As for Holmes, If the kettle is now field with water - move the kettle to the very end of the plank. You climb this plank close to the faucet by getting on at the left side (if you're facing it) and then move forward. This pushes the kettle until the end.

Now - if you've moved the kettle to the end and need to tie the rope, then go to the end of the plank close to the door on the floor.
You should see the kettle close to this plank now.
Climb up and be close to the kettle.
