I rescued the 1st princess and found the blade tip but after two hours of searching, could not find troll central. Please, just a hint, northern, southern, eastern, weastern, in forest, cliffs, just please give a hint. Also, do you need to complete certain missions for acess to be gained.

There is a lady in Berglum who says, "Look out if you explore the west coast. Trolls have been seen around there." That might be worth exploring.
You can get into 'Troll Sentril' at any time, but certain characters will only appear at the appropriate moments in the game.
BTW, did you get your saving problems solved?

Yes, I did get the problems to go away. I was saving them into the wrong place, so they would not show up when I loaded the game.
hey bud look at the jimmy thead and think about it and you will find troll sentral it took a little while before I got it
------------------
Still no luck. Is it connected to Troll's Lair in any way? I have searched most of the coast on the west. Thank you for your help.

Yes.

I found Troll Sentril, and had a chat with Ratznest, He said to raise a ransom of 250,000 gp and deposit them on the marble block. I have all of that gold and more. Somehow, it would not let me put the gold on the slab.
------------------ Never mind this post, I saved and came back and it worked. Caution: LabRat may go off at any time so please wear your helmet.

If you walk right up to the slab, you should get a choice of whether or not to place the gold there. If you don't have the gold in your pocket (please don't ask me how you get that much gold in your pocket) it should say, "You don't have enough gold to meet Ratznest's demands......" The slab has no way of knowing what gold you might have in the Bank of Garendall (Banker's Guild) so if you want to pay the ransom, you have to go there with the funds showing in your cash on hand. Since you have talked to Ratznest, approaching the slab will bring up some dialogue box with or without the gold.

Sounds like someone has been dealing the 'shrooms.

Do the elite guards regenerate? Also, I talked with Jimmy about opening the storage room, Then relocated in to the room. I defeated the guards, got a couple of potions, and certain Diabolus parts. Then I relocated out. Jimmy keeps saying, " I will de-activeate the trap door for a few minutes you go in the room. I have taken everything out of the room! Jimmy still pretends that I still need to get in. Also, The Hag of Hartsford keeps saying, let me see what you have of the sword, and then nothing happens. And in my scroll, it says, find the parts to the sword Diabolus and record in your journal the parts you have. ? ------------------ Caution: LabRat may go off at any time so please wear your helmet.

Which ones? The ones guarding the entrance hall to Ratznest and the marble slab, or the ones guarding Ratznest's closet?
Edit to your edit: Jimmy doesn't know you jumped over the trap door. He thinks you haven't been there yet. Probably the Hag thinks the same thing. You're going to have to leave by the drop route to set things right.

I went in the conventional way, killed the guards, and fell through the trap door to get out. Then Jimmy still said, de-activate ect. What am I doing wrong? Also, the bits of Diabolus seem to be nowhere. I have the Hilt, and the tip but the other pieces are not forthcoming. The Hag of Hartford said she put some in places she thought people would find them. I searched a good bit but saw no clues or anything.

Hi LabRat, I am going to look at the code and see why or how you managed to jump off the track here. Since you don't have an email evident, I'll post back here as soon as I have an answer for you. It's not what you are doing wrong, it's what might not have gotten set correctly when you relocated in rather than walked in. I'll find a solution for you. ~RD
Edit: One thing I will need to know - are you using the latest version of DiD? That's version 1.1 (as opposed to v 1.0.1)? (url="http://"http://www.evula.org/rduck/damselsV1.1.sit")damselsV1.1(/url)
I am using V1.1.
Originally posted by LabRat: **I am using V1.1. **
Hi LabRat. First, about Jimmy. By relocating into the closet and back out again you did not change a global variable and he doesn't know you went there. Don't fret about it. There is no harm done. I do question why you would want to relocate there if the trap door had been turned off, but players sometimes do strange things to the game we plan out so carefully.
About the Hag. Congratulations! Out of 31 possible combinations of 5 sword parts, you managed to pick the one that did not have a link to the dialogue from the Hag. I admit that a bug existed after all the testing. If you had not picked up the sword tip or had found any other part the game would have proceeded normally.
I have corrected the problem in (url="http://"http://www.evula.org/rduck/damselsV1.1.1.sit")damselsV1.1.1(/url) which I am affectionately calling "The LabRat Version." I have no plans to upload this to the Add-ons page at this time because it is a minor fix and will not be needed by most players, but it will remain on my site for a while. (The downloading is faster from my site anyway.) There is no need to do anything other than replace your plugin with this one and then revisit the Hag.
I'm sorry you had this problem, but thanks for finding a bug. ~RD
Thank you very much. Now I may keep working on the quests. Also, the pommel stone was supposedly hurled from "south of the river portals, over the trees. I searched in and below the troll encampment near the river portals, but with no luck. Any hints? Thank you again for fixing that annoying bug. Merci Beaucoup

You are welcome.
I sounds to me like this was thrown into some pretty dense forest. I think you will have to look for a way to penetrate the undergrowth in some thick trees. How far could the old gal have thrown it?
I keep falling through a trap door in Troll Sentril. Am I doing something wrong? I have not met Ratznest and have no idea of where to find him. Any clues?

Hi nutcake. Welcome to the boards. My guess is that you have rescued one princess. If this is true, I refer you to the Readme which says, "When the quest is first given to find Troll Central, I suggest you walk there from the nearest tunnel entrance (Plains of Endless Wind) or you might miss an important part of the story." If the big gate was down by the arch which is labled "Troll Sentril" then Ratznest is not in residence. You can pick up the storyline by walking out of the Troll Lair. If you teleport in or out, you will miss meeting someone who needs to talk to you. ~RD
I have rescued 2 princesses and I did walk from Endlesswind entrance and someone did talk to me. The big gate was locked last time I checked, but I may need to try that again as I have rescued a princess since then.
