Which cave? Are you in the small cave or have you found the big one?

Spoiler

- if you are still in the small cave you need to find the pickhammer to break down the wall. It is in the same small building as the lighthouse keeper.
- if you are in the big cave (you have got through the small cave), go back and talk to the tanarr'i again.

How exactly are you supposed to use the hammer?

more...

I go in the "little cave at the end of the stream down the road from the broken ship. I see a ? mark, I click on it and it says "locked". Am I doing something wrong?

Uh. That should definately not say locked; it should give a description of the rockface.

If you look carefully you should be able to figure out the outline of a door. Click on that; just having the pickhammer in your possession should be enough - you don't need to equip it.

It is telling me 'locked'. I do see the description area and can click on it. I click above that on the door and get "locked" message. I have the hidden key discussed above in my possession.

Can you attach a savegame please? I'm not worried about what you have installed as all I want to do is to check a couple of variables.

I never got the "locked" during testing. However it was difficault to hit at times, but I allways managed to get through.

Hmm. No-one's carrying the tool and the globals haven't been set. I assume you meant to attach another savegame and not this one?

Hmm.. Okay here it is. Jahiera has the hammer. In this game I actually was able to open the door... It just wasn't where I thought it was. I was clicking on the north wall and it was telling me "locked" and made the locked sound. I clicked all over the place finally on the west side and in a small area it did open. No way to tell I was in the wrong place this whole time since there is no outline or anything and there is a question mark in the north area saying "there a strong sense of magic (etc).."

Ah yes - the big cursor-waving excercise! I think there's a few of them in the original game too. There are two areas that bring up the info cursor - you found one and the other is under the small door.

At least you seem to have gotten past this problem.

Yes but it is pretty disconcernting finding the "locked" part of the area and thinking something is wrong like the pickhammer isn't working.
