As some locations are different in that version, they may have accidentally made a door somewhere to relock at certsin point in the patched version or messed up something else that the trophy tracks. That mezzanine door could be the problem with a high chance. Edited March 28 by Eredaar- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brodaty_rumcajs Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Finally! Got it after 3rd attempt on 1.00 version, and this was by far my worst experience with this game - everything was sooo glitched, cutscenes not engaging, enemies and Emily going into no-clipping mode…. it is important to manual save at the end of each chapter. Now the important topic, which I did not in first 2 unsuccessful runs on 1.00 version: - game installed from cd and played in offline mode until Truth key door crash (manual save before door unlock attempt) - make sure to unlock everything in the game (especially take care about Chapter 4 first floor door bolt to grand parlor- must be opened physically after Dark Man sighting near empty room) - install patch (does not need to go back to offline after that) - load manual save and open the lock - and that’s it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should i restart beggining? I could be wrong but ive heard loading into the auto save instead of manual save after the patch could mess it up. it could be any number of things with this buggy mess of a trophy 😩 You NEED to get to truth key door on unpatched, and once you get through if you’re locked out of all stairwell doors (due to unpatched version locking you out), thennnnn you are safe to update. But if you are not there with that criteria it doesn’t seem to work Edited March 28 by RevNexus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my total playtime tells the same story - 57 hours 😔. I still believe there has to be a way to do it on 1.03, cause the first 2 achievers got it there too. They might have the disc version, but these days, we didn't know of our workaround. Damn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brodaty_rumcajs Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 For the updated game run: did someone tried to manual save before using truth key, then force game shutdown on PS main screen, start game again, load manual save and then use the key? (With 913 safe opened twice in one playthrough). Since I got trophy using 1.00 trick I can’t test it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine popped after unlocking one of the doors on the boat. Then i patched my game on 2nd form boss fight at the end of chapter 4. My guess is the update messes up locks in the game. 2 locks in chapter 4. The locked safe in clerks office and or the lock 29 on the boat. I also got the no heal unpatched. The reason you need to patch it during boss fight, game wont let you advance into chapter 5. Its a massive crash. No work around. Also a question, why dont ppl buy physical on the release instead of digital? Its also cheaper physical than digital, atleast here it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gudradan Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 (edited) 18 hours ago, Eredaar- said: I can happily confirm that this workaround does work perfectly. Thank you very much for sharing it! For those who did not get it following this method may have missed a door accidentally, probably the mezzanine door that closes after you get back from the ship, so it must be opened again. In my run I also opened every normal door aswell once in the game. Also, in chapter 3, in the egyptian part where you are using the lights in the tomb to get the contract, there are 2 doors which can only be opened if you smash the breakable blockage. I don’t know for sure but maybe those count aswell, I did them. So basically what worked for me (not sure if everything is needed): - Disc version, 1.0, no patch. - Fresh start, delete saves and profile before starting it. - Play as Emily. - Make many separate saves frequently because unpatched game is extremely glithcy, freezes, and has gamebreaking bugs, where you have to get back to previous save. - Open all regular doors, safes and unbolt all bolted doors. Don’t forget the doors in the alternate world sequences. - Open the 913 safe 2 times, once in chapter 2, once in chapter 4. - Open medicine box. - Open globe in sitting room. - Open the 2 doors that are blocked by debris by smashing the debris in chapter 3 egyptian tomb (do that before the chase scene that starts after you free the contract using the light on the statue’s head). - Chapter 4: unblock the door to ground parlor and mezzanine before doing the ship sequence. - Do the ship sequence first (that starts if you go down the stairs after using stairwell key). - After you get back from ship sequence, unbolt mezzanine door again. - Do WW1 sequence once everything else is done. That starts in the empty room, after you open the safe and use the light bulb in Ruth’s room. - After WW1 sequence and waking up, do the puzzle with the schematics. Get the Truth key and make a manual save. - Now update the game to the current version, because you cannot finish withouth it (the game freezes if you use The Truth key without updating). - Load the manual save and unlock the door with the key. TROPHY pops I just unlocked my plat, thank you. I followed your list, so I'll expand it a bit with my personal experience (there are minor differences): Removed save data, removed the game, turned internet OFF and reinstalled the game v1.00 (Disc ofc) Played as Emily on Easy mode (Modern). Aimed to open all doors (locked and unlocked, even in sequences out of Derceto) and safes (I unlocked the 913 safe twice) Unlocked the medicine box and the globe. Opened the two "doors" blocked by debris in the Egyptian Tomb (chapter 3) In chapter 4 (in order): I unlocked the mezzanine door, did the ship sequence, unlocked the mezzanine door again, unlocked the door to ground parlor, did the WW1 sequence. Saved as soon as the WW1 sequence ended, completed the map puzzle and unlocked the exit door. That's when the trophy unlocked. Extra notes: Played most of chapters 3/4 with bugs such as Magnyfier hud always on screen or completed parts of map reported as still "red". I didn't skip the ending "movie sequence" of the ship part and the egyptian tomb as doing it would crash my game. After getting this trophy I completed the game (standard ending, beating the final boss) and got the "no drink" trophy too (tried to get it before to no avail, but this time was unlocked). After completing the map puzzle and opening the exit door in chapter 4, the game didn't freeze (when I got the trophy I was still on patch 1.00), but couldn't continue with the game because all the doors near the stairwell were locked. Reloading didn't solve the issue. Installing the last patch did solve the issue and I could open a stairwell door. Hope someone may find some an useful hints. Good luck!
