I am an English speaker and have started playing this game again after many many years.

If you use http://dungeony.rpghry.cz/fate/ it says no permission to access.
Using http://dungeony.rpghry.cz/fate/index.html however you can access it all.
The two walkthroughs Matusz has misinformation and the Uwe one is like a story.
Is there any other English ones available.
I found these maps which I like a lot but only cover up to so much

http://www.oldgames.sk/dungeon-mapper/map.php?map=143

I especially like the wilderness one but its only for the original bit.
It only covers the original
Does anyone know if there are more like this for the complete game.

from this page
http://www.germanja.de/docphp/download_de.php?fchk=1

I got this fate_loesung_asm_92.pdf

Is this like an orginal hint book or something in German.
It has complete maps in it but it is scanned and hard to read.

Are there other maps to be found.

Hello, LordNick,

first off, welcome here.

Well, this is basically a German forum, but English speakers are always welcome. Most of my experts speak at least decent English, and I can help in translation, if neccessary.

Thanx for the hit. I like the site a lot, although the information has a lot of holes in it...

All right, first off there is NO walkthrough for Fate Gates of Dawn. Forget it. What you find on Mateusz' site is a decent hint, but no more. There is no golden way through the game. You have to find your own. Maps are a good hint to where to explore (and not to miss treasures) but the game tells you how to go. NEVER do something that you do not have information about! It would not work. As for decent maps, try this:http://www.mightandmagicworld.de/phpbb/ ... 057#400057
(Go fo the download zip)
It is a pretty complete collection of ALL information about the game, including all maps. The author is German, but the program should be mostly self-explaining. If neccessary, ask in his thread. Either I or the author will be able to answer questions.
So, best of luck to you!

Greetings,
Sir Charles

Thanks a lot, the program was very useful.
I think you definetly need a set of golden rules for this game at minimum.
Originally when I first played the game which was when it first came out I got stuck at Miras Athran because I used Marina in combat. I had no certainty if that was the reason though it was my top suspiciion and I didn;t have an old save game that far back. so I gave up. I suppose I was lucky in a way, doing the rest of the game by trial and error and on grid paper would have been torture.
One of the walkthroughs says all you need is a character under a certain age or a youth potion on a older person.
I did run into an issue because I was originally using a map with Larvin without the island in it I stumbled onto the teleport switch location before I met up with Tinius and then the switch did not appear after I talked to Tidius and so the teleports were inactive. All that did was make going to the Alarian altar tedious.
I found it strange that a high intelligence character can dupe every creature in the Castle crypt without any status effects. The Agyssium I had to use grope, to finish off the tough characters when there few of them in order to save magic points, followed by dupe when it was withered,possesed or made insane.
In the Castle crypt using double hit with improve you can dupe two per character per round.
I also noticed Masterheal counteracts improve back to original stats for each character, better off using alternatives.

LordNick -- May I call you Lord for short? -- that was a good catch (Masterheal!). Sometimes I do things very quickly and then later I do not understand what exactly happened there! Thanks for posting your discovery here!

With respect,
Rangerous the Second
