ive read the walkthrough posted only one weird thing
ive tested everything i could however in the walkthrough it mentions the hair under microscope and adding the "burnt hair"
cause the only thing poirot said was "almost done" my objectives are all completed wich is weird >< other thing that makes now sense is i put together the "regret letter" exactly how it shows up in the walkthrough and it does not show up in documents why? lol and now i cant find anyone to have new dialogue with and theres nothing else i can figure to get done since everything is crossed off. what in the blue blazes is going on? someone help me plz

Redjack if you don't have the letter in your inventory then it isn't completely correct yet. When all pieces are correct, it will show as a complete piece of paper.
Did you compare the hair from the hairbrush with the pieces of burned hair under the microscope?

Sue

thats what im saying i didnt get any burnt hair? where did i miss it ><

From the walkthrough:
Go to the fireplace and take the *burnt piece of fabric on the logs and *burnt hair on the right side.

I added a picture of the merged letter of regret on the walkthrough.

ty vm something stupid i didnt notice >< lol

if someone has a save game file at the end of act 5 when the letter of regret is made. becuase i have checked the letter over
around 15 times now. ive compared what ive put together with what mag did in the walkthrough. im beginning to get extremely irritated with this and about to say the h*** with the game
yesterday i had to completely start my game over becuase of the masterkey bug that i accidentally found early

As for the letter of regret, I'm sure you missed one or more squares.
Check the sides the sentences or the words position of each square.
Compare it to the merged or the other picture in the walkthrough.
I don't think it's a game glitch.

Please use one thread per game. If you have anyother question about this game, post on this original thread.

I still think that it's operator error and not game error about this puzzle.
Anyways, I'll look for a saved game.

ty i was content without even wanting a walkthrough on this game but i had some of the same problems others had. as to shredded paper type puzzles im rather good at them wich is why im frustrated never had a problem with em' before

if u can post a save of it that would be awesome in the meantime ill try this for the 100th time lol

It's on the way now.
Place both files in the saved games folder found in the EUTS folder.

Does anyone have a save game for the that infamous Gardener's letter puzzle? Because it is clearly a clitch in the game as I'm sure I put it together correctly but the letter won't go to under the notes and therefore I can't proceed...any help would me much appreciated.

I had a lot of probs getting this letter right .I thought I d got it right a few times but had nt and yes it was irritating

Kurt,

I have not heard that this puzzle has a glitch. It really is checking every piece to see if they are correctly placed.
Try and check the puzzle again. It should work when correctly done. Check the design of the sides, the words of the letter and the rips of the paper.
It will work for you.

GO TO THE FIREPLACE LOOK ON RIGHT SIDE SEE BRUNT HAIR.



GO ONLINE AND TYPE : EVIL UNDER THE SUN WALK THROUGH
TELL YOU WHERE GO NEXT . PASS THIS ON

Ah, dlea. We appreciate the help. We do have the walkthrough here on our GB walkthrough page.

Again, please do not use all upper case letters in your post. It means shouting in internet language.

Hi again, thanks for reply but it does work for me. I have checked that letter piece by piece, compared it to the one in the walkthrough and it just does not go under my notes. I mean, there is not that many pieces. It's 100% correct. Just does not work. I'm out of ideas here. Can't finish this [blip] game...

Kurt if the note doesn't go into your inventory then it isn't placed together correctly yet. It could be one of the edging pieces or one of the pieces where the letter is torn in the middle.

Sue

have you tried the blank squares and make sure that they are line up with the design on the paper. thats were i had problems..hope it works

Boo hoo!I'm having the same problem. I'm 100% sure the letter is correct. Even the blank edge parts. Even the fiddly middle bits. I've checked it over and over and compared it to screenshots...

Could someone please send me a saved game? I don't want to have to give up - it's a good game!

Thanks!

Hi RickityRick, to GameBoomers!

Try switching the border design at the bottom and top of the letter. This trick has worked for a few people stuck on the puzzle. Let us know if it gets you through.

OK thanks! I'll try it now.

EDIT: Just tried it every which way I can think of. I don't know what's wrong with it! I've spent waaaaay too much time staring at my computer screen trying to work out where I've gone wrong...I've checked all the borders a dozen times, and the letter reads fine...matched up all the handwriting etc....

lame!

Rickity,

Is this the letter from the trash can? If yes, if its not going into documents in inventory, its not put together correctly.

Yah it is the letter in the trash can.... but I'm totally sure it's put together properly. I've compared it against the screenshot in the walkthrough and it is exactly the same. I've even compared it down to looking at the symmetry of all the little flowers on the border (yeah, I have nothing better to do). My brother has too. I can't possibly see where I've gone wrong. It's exactly the same! Aargh!

RickityRick, do you have the patience to fiddle around with the pieces some more, or are you on the verge of giving up? I don't have a saved game, but you're welcome to e-mail me your last save and I'll get you past that spot.

Rickity,

If you'd like, you can send me your save and I'll install the game to get a look at your game.


Rushes, Just one more time and I'm gonna beat you up.

See now, Rickity, we're fighting over you.
