Jack the Ripper Hints
So how do I catch the guy?
1 of 11: You need to set the camera up somewhere with a good vantage point of the area --
2 of 11: -- but where you won't be seen.
3 of 11: Go under the train track and up the stairs.
4 of 11: Now set up the camera.
5 of 11: That's tripod, "darkroom," plate in front of the window --
6 of 11: -- and flash support and powder off to the right.
7 of 11: Now face the camera square on and look through the viewfinder.
8 of 11: Pan right till you see the veranda with the door.
9 of 11: Very soon, a man and a woman will appear. Watch!
10 of 11: As soon as the man makes a threatening gesture, click off a shot! (Just one!) (You don't have to panic about this; if you don't take the shot immediately, Jack will sort of loop till you do.)
11 of 11: Now run across the street and see what you find.
