Hi I hope you guys can help me, I have just purchased this from steam as i played it years ago I found it was the best of all 5 of these.
The trouble i am having is, George and harry have crash landed on to the edge of a cliff. Its right at the start of the game. Got George out of his seat woke harry up with his beer bottle and now i am trying to break the window open with the fire extinguisher but it wont let me toggle between the highlighters, it will only let George put the fire extinguisher down.
there are two Starr highlighters, one on the window and one on the fire extinguisher I cant get to move to the highlighter on the window.
Could it be a fault or bug in the game.
Hope you can help
Regards
Maggsie

Hi maggsie, I googled your issue and up came a bunch of things where numerous people were complaining about the very same thing.

You can find one example here.

Therefore it sounds like this might be some kind of glitch - have you tried looking through the Steam forum for the game, just in case someone else has posted ways to resolve the issue? I will take a look and see if I can find anything.

We can also move this thread over to Glitches if need be, as I am certainly not an expert on this topic.

Maybe someone else will be able to help, too.

Thanks Marian I went on the Steam community and couldn't find ant discussion, I guess I will have to contact Steam to see if they have a solution.

Let us know what happens, maggsie. If you don't hear back from them, I will move this over to Glitches to see if anyone else has some suggestions. smile

I kind of remember having this problem years ago and somebody said that I had to use the page up key to get to different aspects of the game. I don't know if that will help, but, it got me through when I was stuck.

Thank you both I have contacted Revolution but no reply stating that they had my email so i dont hold much hope with them. I think personally that Steam just palmed me off saying its revolution are at fault.
I have tried the page up key with no effect. I think also, that because there is tutorial instructions on screen it hides the highlighter. I will try and persevere and try and get George at a different angle see if that works
Thanks again I will let you know if I get any news.
Regards
Maggsie

Can you select a different screen resolution? It's possible that something is 'hidden' off the edge of the screen.
