Digging to BowerstoneNorth cont.

Alright, now I'm really starting to get pissed off and Im wondering if you guys are bulling about the whole 'digging to bowerstone north' topic. I mean, I've never seen any screenshots / recordings of it being done. Oh but all you, Fable masters have to know everything right? Well I'm not here today to argue, i'll save that for another time, but I will give you my experience, and hopefully you guys can help me.

I was trying this digging to Bowerstone North thing (obviously before I did any quests). I have some experience with digging to unreachable areas (Mastered Twinblades whole area, from Abandoned Road to his Tent). Anyways, I spent a couple of hours trying it, most of the time my game glitched out majorly and I couldnt move, so I had to reload it. I finally get to my objective (bowerstone south/bowerstone north door) and I dig through the wall (bowerstone north direction). I am in an area, with 2 of those large wooden doors. Through one, i can see the patrolling guard, the one that guards bowerstone south, and through the other large wooden door is just a small area of green grass, and beyond that is just nothing (just the bright light which i guess is the end of the map). Anyways, I start digging towards this bright light, and I finally just get totally fricked up. Well tough luck, better luck next time, right? Wrong. I get all the way back to the second wall (right near the bowerstone south/bowerstone north door) and decide to do the opposite of what I did last time - and go around through the entrance. So I dig right around the back of the guard, and what happens? The game cuts to a cutscene, where the mundane guard laughs in my god damn face and says "where you think you're going sunshine, you can't come up here". He may as well of spit in my face.

Anyways, can anyone offer some advice on what I might of done wrong, or what I can do right next time?

I'll help you out for now.

You already know where to dig so I won't bother with that, anyway dig through until you see the white "nothing" place with only grass and cliff to your left and the wall to your right. Then you dig towards the entrance of the door to the right, the entrance!

Once your in, you can walk freely, you should be able to see the annoying guard. Sneak around the opposite side of the gate and you should see the typical "display" when reaching a new area, you know the screen turns into a film kind of thing and it would say Bowerstone North on the bottom. Just sneak until you are close to the door/gate but not close to the guard or else he will tell you off. And then bowerstone north should load.

digging...

thanks Frost Drake but I did it without your help anyways.

To answer evil eon, you basically stand the opposite way in which you wish to dig, and then use the spade (hotkey it first).

cool...

thanks Mallaka...

does it make any difference "where" you dig? or is it a bit of luck where you end up?

[QUOTE=Mallaka]Oh I'm so sorry I'm done with this anyways. By the way I got past the bowerstone north, thanks for all your support (not). I'm sorry for adding stars to my swear words (im sorry kids if you had to look at it) obviously you are very upset well BOOHOO.[/QUOTE]

Consider yourself aware of the forum rules, then, and warned for subsequently ridiculing another forum member. I wouldn't suggest going for a suspension of your posting privileges by violating Buck's rules any further, but that's of course up to you, and it's very important after all to look good among your peers up here. But there are other Fable forums out there, after all; so the choice of how to act on GameBanshee in the future here is up to you.

Yes it is normal, you've just passed the loading zones and now into the scenery, because the scenery are just there for effects you can't really do anything about it.

This happened first to me when I dug into Twinblade's Camp, I arrived in the scenery and bypassed the loading zone.
