Thanks for the tip. I can't do this more than 5 minutes at a time. I find myself getting really agitated. I think I may have to put this game aside for a while. Lucas' mental health goes down so quickly while trying to do this task. Gee, he should be in my shoes.

Hang in there Terri - it can really be aggravating. This game gives you a workout. You're right though - if Lucas misses a bunch, his mood goes down, and then there's no way he can complete the task. At that point, it's better to start from the beginning of the sequence again. I know you'll do it.

Hi Nickie. Thanks for the words of encouragement but I think I've had all the fun I can stand with this game.

Take care,
Terri

Terri I know it can be very frustrating. When I played IP I had to tell myself just relax and pretend this is just practice when I started a difficult sequence. Sometimes it worked by just relaxing and not trying too hard. Good luck!

Sure, I understand that Terri - it's supposed to be a game, and if it's not fun, why do it. Just in case you're interested, on the other Indigo thread there is a link to saved games, if you want to use them and jump over the difficult parts. Whatever you decide, have fun with something, ok?

It's me again! Just wanted to say that I have noticed that the control doesn't work the same each time. One time you can hold it down longer than you should and it's fine, next time you fall. Anyway, is there a way to save my last game so I can uninstall the game from my computer? Sometimes when you uninstall it does ask if you want to remove your saved games, sometimes not.

A gamepad doesn't seem to be the answer for me with this game either.
Thanks!

On the other thread for Indigo, L4L mentions how to create a saved game. It's much different than usual and I won't even pretend I understand it, but I'm sure if you ask her, she will help you. That thread is on the same page as this one.

Hi Nickie. Trust me when I say this. I would not be able to do the save without some real problems. It would be detrimental to my computer.
I did make the climb last night, twice. I then ran out of time and then fell. Had some problems getting back up the pipe, so I proceeded to change my mouse for some reason and that was a very big mistake! I could not get it to work right after that.
Perhaps I'll try again tonight.

Just a comment, Terri824,
Indigo was one of the first games I played. I posted and posted-cause the controls were driving my blood pressure to the roof but after awhile- I got the hang of it-- my hardest part was going thru the basement- into the files- the breathing isssue--- WOW--- But I must say it is now one of my favorites- so far-BS3 close behind-next time I play it- it will be one I replay- I am going to try it with my gamepad control- I have heard it is easier that way. Enjoy

Hi Winfrey. I think it's a great game but I have a personality flaw, well many, but if I can't do something I have a tendency to get extremely upset!
I am wondering if you might know what the default setting is for the mouse. I accidentally changed my settings.
I also noticed that sometimes the little red ball is not there to follow the big white ball. This has happened everytime I've had to climb a fence. Any clues on this one?

I just reloaded Indigo- if you go into options- keyboard and mouse and the bottom it has a tab that says set default- if you click on that tab it will take you to a screen and one option is to reset to default. if you click on this your controls will reset.- Don't remember what I did on the fence other than retrying- it is there- just real sensitive-

I tried the default button earlier before my last post. It resets the controls to default but not the mouse. It seems to me that they were all about 4 spaces away from the right end when I changed things at the beginning.
Right now I am back to putting it down. I get up on the ledge but am now having problems with "simon" control. At the rate I'm going, I figure I will get fed up and hit "uninstall" before I take the time to calm down.

Terri,
Mouse default is 4 from right- you are correct.
Invert Camera-off
Par- Center
Do you have this set as easy. and resolution at 680?

Hi Winfrey. I haven't gone back to the game and checked the settings. I'm sure that I have the resolution set higher, Par sounds right, Invert camera, not sure. I am ever so positive that it is set to "Easy" though. I will check on the rest and fix it if needed. Thanks so much for the information!

Hi. I still haven't gone back to the game. It seems to be more like a chore. It had gotten to the point that 5 minutes was my limit when I was challenged. I would like to see how it ends but apparently not enough to get back to the game. Thanks to all that tried to help me with this one!
There's really a great group of people here at GB. Always willing to help you!
