Egyptian Museum in France??

Well, it may be that I am just stupidly unobservant,
But I simply CANNOT find the first step to solving the mission where I have to explore the Egyptian Exhibit in France in order to find out why the other security guards have been quitting.
I have literally coasted along all the walls and I cannot find a switch or hole or anything that's inspectable(?).
Where is this confounded switch??
please =]

  • All you need to do for the Egyptian mission is to go to the second floor and view the sarcophagus tombs :) i'm stuck on the chinese exhibit however!
  • move the last statue to the end of the hall. go through the second door collect the loot go back to where the statue was stand on the square, move the statue back to it's original place and you will have access.
  • And if you still have problems, this walkthrough might help:

    The exhibit for the Egyptian stuff is on the second floor. The Chinese is on the first floor.

    It sounds like you may need to look at this:

    No..the chinese is on the ground floor, the egyptian on the first and nothing on the second.. check it out.. im sure about it.


    We have a difference of definitions here. You must be from where they call the floor that you enter the building as the ground floor and the floor above that is the first floor.

    Where I am from the entrance floor can be called the ground floor *or* the first floor. The one above that is the second floor.

    And you don't have to do anything with the sarcophagus to get the quest to work. Please see the walkthrough to check it out.
  • You shouldn't be able to get in there, so yeah I think there's no way out. You'll probably have to reset your Sim.

    That's ctrl-shift-C, then type:

    resetSim Mathilda Mathews

    or whatever the Sims name is.
  • Does anyone know if there's really a hidden staircase in the other side of the first floor of the museum? There's a railing around a long, narrow blank area. I had to a cheat to get to the room it's in, so I might have missed the step that would reveal the staircase... it has a "tomb room" orb. But maybe it just goes to the same underground places (I had already completed those). I'd add a screenshot but I can't see a place to do that.
