You're a police officer dispatched with a couple of squad-mates to find a 9-year old boy by the name of Brandon. When you enter the mansion, there is no sight of your squad-mates and the light has dimmed to a light blue as if there is no daylight inside of this building. As you explore the mansion, you find it's haunted. Moving objects, blood-thirsty monsters. After a while you begin seeing them when they aren't even there. Even the ones that are not there can actually hurt you. Your job is to find this boy, and there's no turning back. ----- How he got in there? It was the boy's birthday party.. 5 friends over. In order to 'prove' his aging to 9 years, his friends made him go inside the mansion for 10 minutes. 30 minutes passed and he hasn't returned, the friends don't want to go in. So they resort to telling the parents, the parents call the police.Credits:Map Creation: DragonRuinsScripting: DragonRuins--------------------------------------

Yup, I found two more. (these two are much hard to explain, once again I was recording when it happened, the video is here: Youtube.com ) One is where the first Brute comes out at you. If you run into the room with all the chairs, tables, and couches, of course he follows you. But if you hid in the area between the couches and chairs, he can't get to you but he can still see you. If you put a chair in front of you, he can't see you and gives up looking for you. Here's where the glitch happens: after he "gives up" looking for you he attempts to walk out the door he came in, but gets stuck and can't walk out at all. He's basically stuck in the room with you. He will continue to try to walk out, until you try to run out, and then he follows you out the door without getting stuck. ONLY then. (4:41 is where the Brute appears, at 6:05 is where he tries to walk out but gets stuck)

The other glitch I found was a chair being sucked into a wall, or "eaten by the wall" if you will. If you're carrying a chair with you into the room with a bunch of rocks (just pass the room with all the chairs, tables, and couches) and you press the chair against the wall to you intimidate right, the chair is sucked into the wall. (13:26 is where the wall "eats the chair".) I think this is a common glitch among mods because I've seen it happen in a few other mods as well.

The Brute glitch, in my opinion, needs to be fixed. (it's also obvious that he's stuck because his movements are very glitchy and choppy.) The Chair glitch, however, probably doesn't need to be fixed right away, due to the fact that it only happens if the conditions are right. (ex: holding a chair while walking into the room, and pushing the chair against the wall)

Ok.. That chair glitch literally just made my day. Thank you yet again for reporting these two for me! I'll start working on them right away. :)

Haha you're welcome! I was half-way expecting the chair to just go through the wall and appear on the opposite side. Well, that wasn't the case. The wall did in fact eat the chair. :O
