CNSD, the game! by Leandro Conte Febras ============================================================================================================================== ============================================================================================================================== Briefing: "We have recently moved to São Paulo. My daughter Sara still misses her mother. So do I ... Since she disappeared, we have not had any news ... It is hard not to know what happened to her. Here in the city, my daughter has always been very withdrawn. So I thought it were a good idea to enroll her in the acting classes at the new school. It worked very well at first, but after a few months, her behavior has become strange. She had a visibly unstable temper. The new school is quite traditional and religious, run by a Congregation of School Sisters. Acting classes take place at night time twice a week. After rehearsals, Sara comes home and goes straight to bed. I just hope one day we get our lives back to normal. Today is one of those rehearsal days... " Legal and Extras:            This work is merely fiction. Its content does not represent the reality. It is pure author's imagination.            It is a School run by Nuns, Catholic. Year of foundation: 1950s. Current construction, 1960s. Size: more than 8,000 m².            This project was idealized in the middle of 2006, when I was in the 3rd and final year of high school. All changes since then have been discarded.             Last but not least, the story would not exist without the help of friends (and also ex-students) Daniel Santoro Damato, Leonardo Francisco and Fabio Presa. Note1: Do not save DURING the Cutscenes. Engine never responds well to that. Note2: Photosensitive Seizure Warning! Photosensitive epilepsy risk. Engine: This game uses the engine available for free in the games of Thief series. I used engine 2, of the game Thief 2 - The Metal Age (year 2000). This engine has been improved over the years by the strong community of fans of the series, that counts on numerous missions and extra campaigns made by people from all over the world. Minimum requirements: Minimum requirements are relatively high, as the mission goes beyond the limits set for a game made to run 20 years ago. I will describe my configuration as the minimum I recommend. The FPS drops to 15 in 2 or 3 locations, but runs with 60 in most: Video Card: GEFORCE 9800M GTS Processor: Intel Core 2 DUO 2.26 GHz P8400 RAM: 4GB, 1066MHz DDR2 HD: 7200 rpm Resolution: 1440x900 Recommended enable NewMantle code.

But motions may not work properly. Most of the bugs below are related to this. • Note 2: The character's voice were taken from the first 3 games of the series (1-Dark Project, 2-Metal Age, 3-Deadly Shadows) merged, cut and edited freely. So there are differences in the quality of VOSounds. • Garrett at the start scene may get stuck without being able to get into the school, walking without leaving the place or immobile. Rarely, it can not self-delete, attacking the player as soon as the game starts (2% chance). • Initial scene, because it`s complexity (WatchObj Link), causes leg in slower PCs, which can hinder and bug the motions. • The 5 children in the Schoolyard may lose their ability to walk, getting immobile. (The proper thing is to walk in circles in the center of the yard and attack Garrett all together, shouting). • The appearance of Karras on the court may be delayed, causing the character not to turn toward Garrett in time. • The 5 children around the Nun in the second yard may lose their movements (5%). The correct motion is all of them be struggling without stopping, so, after a few seconds, they all kill the nun and go into search mode. After a few seconds of searching, they all flee and leave. It may happen, not so rarely (20%), that they do not perform the motions of search, becoming static after killing the nun. • In this same scene, very rarely (2%) one of the girls can get stuck by the way when escaping, not triggering the disappearance of them. Need to load an earlier "save" in this case. • The 5 children who enter the church may lose their ability to walk, standing outside, unable to find Garrett, or even walking without getting out of the place, without being able to walk through the door of the church (5% ). • The final demons may appear floating in space. Reload the game before the transformation to correct this problem. • During the Cutscenes, it is possible to jump with Garrett due to operational issues of the script. But it is advisable not to click any button (much less save the game) during the cutscenes. • Not a bug itself, VOSounds may not play if a previous one is still active/playing. This can happen in some places of the mission, where the trigs of 2 sounds are very close one to the another. But nothing that undermines the understanding of history. • While performing the ritual in the grotto, VoodooDoll and HollyPotion may disappear if they are thrown too hard toward the ground. This usually happens if we are using SpeedyPotions or Special Codes to Increase Speed. Playing normally, this is very rare. But if it does, you need to load a previous save. • Holy Potion was "stuck" in the inventory without being able to be thrown into the Grotto. Load a previous Save.
