The Chronicles of Weedrow 2
============================================================

Weedrow and pals (and The Bloblet) are enjoying a relaxing holiday break in a beautiful lakeside resort. Things go wrong when Takk goes missing and Weedrow finds a note on the door of her room:

"To whom it may concern.

You and your travelling companions are cordially invited to a diner party in your honor. It will be held tonight at Grimwood Manor.

PS. If you wish to save your friend you would do well to show up"

With no other option available to them, Weedrow and company decide to check out the dinner party...

Installation and play notes
===========================================================

Extract the archive to your Unreal folder, click yes when asked to merge the System/Maps/Sounds folders.

When done succesfully the file structure should look as follows:

...\Unreal\Maps\CoW2-01-Intro.unr
...\Unreal\Maps\CoW2-02-DS.unr
...\Unreal\Maps\CoW2-03-OTT.unr
...\Unreal\Maps\CoW2-04-ITU.unr
...\Unreal\Maps\CoW2-05-Credits.unr
...\Unreal\Maps\CoW2-06-Flyby.unr

The starting map is CoW2-01-Intro

The inventory can be navigated/used with the standard Unreal buttons for that. Other new functions are covered in-game.

Please note The Chronicles of Weedrow 2 requires the newest unofficial 227 patch (currently version i) to function. If you do not have version 227 installed yet, make sure to go to http://www.oldunreal.com/oldunrealpatches.html and download patch 227 prior to playing this campaign.

Also note that one puzzle relies on sound, so players with hearing issues may want to check the puzzle solutions below when they find some candles.

============================================================
Known issues:
============================================================

* The Bloblet is on a short fuse; don't step/fall on the Bloblet's head as he might attack.

* When you are with the Cow in a library later on the first playable map it's recommended to make a backup save; from that point map 1 has a current undiagnosed save issue that results in saves past that point randomly breaking the map. If you appear back at the start after loading a save then the bug has happened and you'll need to load your backup. As long as you do the latter part in one go you should have no problems, and the later maps work fine. Note that there is an in-game warning message for this.

* Map 2 crashes with saving/loading have also been seen, but so far they have only happened with one computer so it may be related to that installation and not a map issue.

* After the victory music starts when you solve the pipe puzzle it's best to not press any buttons as it can break it.

* At the game in the second playable map don't mash fire too fast as it can completely break the game and make nothing happen when you finish it.

* When starting the boat in level 3 it's possible to jump off while activating it, this will break the stuff following it so is not recommended.

The starting map is CoW2-01-Intro

If nothing is happening at the start then you need to find more things to examine and talk to the other characters until you have exausted their dialogue. After you have done enough, something will happen when you go to the entrance of the dining room area. There are later parts where you need to exhaust interactions to progress too.
