    None of the secret door/stairs show up with search in the moathouse and temple. There was a post on this not to long ago but I can,t remember who or when and if it was resolved. Also, knock doesn't work on the big double doors in level 2. I've got 2 half-elf wizards and a rouge and nothing works. I'm not going to start a new game, it's just a minor hassle. Need some bug spray I guess.

    Hm.... the fact of secret doors not appearing is something that may proof realyl annoying later in the game. I remember this some time ago, when I wasn't able to discovered some secret door when I failed the check the first time, even after that my rogue leveled up several times.

    The big bronze doors...

    ...aren't supposed to open. It's got to do with the imprisonment of Zuggtmoy. The normal 'blue' secret doors not showing up is a bug. I don't know what the cause or effect is; this was discussed here some time ago under the heading of 'disappearing secret doors' or something similar. Try searching that topic.

    IIRC, you have to delete all your saved games and start anew in order to "uncorrupt" your game of this condition. Kalshane had big problems with it before, I think. He might remember more . . .

    Thanx. I'm just foolin around in the game now so it's no big deal. The big double-doors, not the magicalheld ones, work now. If your out in the hallway, knock didn't work. Later on, from inside the air elemental room, it worked. Now they are open all the time. Weird.

    That's pretty much all there is to it. It'd be nice if someone figured out a better fix, but for now that's all you can do.

    Thanx. I got a new game going and I deleted all the old stuff. Teleport on the console works good. Awfull lot of mouse clicking down to level 4. I have the locations of the welcome wench and level 4 stairs memorized now. What a hassle.
