I've run this adventure for a group after 3.5 conversion, they were very high level super-powered freaks of adventuring nature.
They completed it successfully, however they did die multiple times, and their main Fighter became a Yuan-Ti Abomination (slight modification I made to the dungeon).
One comment that came up unanimously was that the sigil thing was a pain in the arse. Get sigil X to see doorway Y, but you have to backtrack via level Z to get to that point.
Most players don't backtrack all the time.
I did have them thinking there was a dracolich in the dungeon (room witht he skeleton hanging there) just by describing the room first then the Dragon - its a long standing joke but ever notice how most prewritten room descriptions describe everything in detail, but leave the fact that there is a fricken huge big dragon in the centre of it. My players have stated categorically that they will look at the pretties AFTER they make sure there is no giant creature in the middle of the room.
