: The HD Remaster has reported issues where specific scripts for papers or gate entry may fail to trigger. If a gate doesn't open despite having the papers, try reloading an earlier save or checking if a secondary objective (like talking to a specific NPC) was missed.
If you are having trouble with papers not "working" at gates:
: When using the Spy to drive into a base, ensure you are using a truck if you want to smuggle other commandos in the back. Soldiers will often spot undisguised commandos in smaller vehicles like the Kubelwagen.
In , "papers" usually refer to critical mission items like Security Papers or ID Documents needed to infiltrate enemy bases without raising alarms. Finding and Using Security Papers
In missions like Night of the Wolves or Das Boot, Silent Killers , obtaining these documents is a core objective:
: On consoles, press the down directional button to view your inventory and verify you actually have the item equipped or held.
: Ensure the Spy has both the Officer's Uniform and the Security Papers in their inventory to successfully pass through guarded gates.
: Some missions require specific items to be in a single commando's inventory (e.g., the Thief holding both the Enigma machine and the papers) for cutscenes to trigger and objectives to complete. Common Issues & Solutions
