well after a lot of runnig around and jumping up and down I got this game to down load.now about the controls you know like going forwards and going in a door and stuff like that .where do i find out about that stuff ? just started the game so i'm in his bed room and need to get out of there.anyone have a thought about this?? deleterman.

Is there any manual or read me file included in your game or from the download?
Check the game folder and see.
It might be the same as Overseer.

Hi, deleterman!

I dug out my game manual, and here are the various controls:

Once the room has loaded, press the spacebar. To move forward or backward, move the mouse in the direction you want to move. To turn left or right, move the mouse left or right. To stop, press the spacebasr again. To tilt your view up or down, press the up or down arrow. To raise or lower your view, press the left shift or ctrl key.

I hope this helps. It may take awhile to get used to the controls, but you'll be a pro in no time!

thank you so much, now do you know if i come to a door what do i do to open it ?? and things like that. deleterman.

Hi, deleterman!

You're very welcome. When you move your cursor over something you can interact with (a door or inventory item), I believe Tex will describe the item first and then you should have the option to look at, open or get it.

Once you've visited a location by foot, it will appear on your travel map, so you won't have to worry about doors for too long.

Have fun!

All I remember is that you have to press the spacebar to stop your movement...and then ....click on the door?

thanks, for all your help. as for the cursor i don't see one . just got out and into his office hate it already..this is not like the other game at all.i had a hard time just trying to save at a place i want to. at this point i would give this game a 0...I did read how every thing works . but thats not much good. deleterman.

Thanks, Susie and Melia.

deleterman, hope you get used to the controls soon.

thank you so much for all your help..we will see huh.

Hi, deleterman!

The Tex Murphy series is one of my all-time favorites and, even though the graphics are archaic by today's standards, they're still enjoyable.

Have fun!

Hi,

Like you I'm learning controls the hard way, I found the keyboard will work like this (l-look,m-move,g-get,o-open,arrow up raises camera, arrow down lowers) use mouse to go forward, back, right, left. similar to G K III, I hope this helps so far I'm getting there.
Keep trying interesting story so far.

I also used the page up, page down, home, end, insert, delete buttons. A couple have Tex glide sideways left and right, another couple have him looking up or down, then the last two have him crouch down or stand taller so he can see stuff that's high up.

Maybe someone can help me on this one-when i try to save what do i need to do to save on the second line and not over the 1st save ??I just can't get it ...it has to be something easy huh ? send help soon.thanks..

Hi, deleterman,
Save.
Go to auxiliary panel, click save, that brings up a save set up, in the lower left, click on increment file button, that will bring up a flashing curser in the lower left fill in the blank and name, click ok and it will be saved. You will also see at the bottem where you can delete a file, so be careful learned the hard way. Then you can just load the file you want. This took me some time to figure out. So I guess we are learning together.
Hope this helps.

thank you so much !! I'M getting the hang of the controls bit by bit, slow going,but so far it's good. deleterman.
