i am having trouble getting through the ogam script segment. bottom line - WHAT goes WHERE? robert.

Hi Robert --

I haven't played this one, but I took a peek at the walkthrough. Wow, it looks complex! I'm not sure how to describe it.

Are you trying to avoid looking at the walkthrough?

Check Malcolm Schmidt's walkthrough HERE for comparison with MaG's. It also has a step by step.

Becky!

Helpless "helpfulness" here.

hi rushes. i have checked out mag's, malcolm's and the uhs walkthroughs and sadly to say, i'm none the wiser! all i know is that you have to enter something to where???? after reading mag's w/t, where do i find the blue 'save your result'?

Robert,

You see this puzzle:
\


1. You have to select 3 scripts on the left that corresponds to 3 scripts on the paper at right.
What you chose will appear at the center column.
2. If you click 'Add to Message Pane, the word (translation of the 3 scripts you chose above) will appear at the bottom of the page.
3. Now you have to do the next word.
You have to select the NEXT (in order) 3 correct scripts and then click 'Add to Message Pane' to make another word or phrase.

And so on and so forth until you make the correct spell.

4. When all are translated correctly, click on the blue 'Save your result' that appears.

The walkthrough has the sequence of 3 scripts that you have to select.

hi mag. i am trying to understand your latest reply to my post: for starters, a. are the triplets as shown EXAMPLES only or are they the ACTUAL triplets i should input? b. how do i get them into the centre column? robert.

The picture above the is LAST #17 Ogam triplet of the puzzle - NO it is not an example.


Your aim is to translate the Ogam from the paper at right. There are 17 triplets you need to work on.

Each Ogam script is made up of a triplet to form a word.

1. See the first triplet below #1 from the paper.
2. Look for and CLICK the triplets in order from the graph at left of the puzzle.
3. The selected triplet will show at center boxes.
4. click 'Add to Message Pane, the word (translation of the 3 scripts you chose above) will appear at the bottom of the page.
5. Do all the triplets.
6. When all triplets are translated correctly, click on the blue 'Save your result' that appears.

The numbers are the sequence of the triplets.
The brackets enclose the triplets.
Each triplet forms a word. For example; 1 is earth, 2 is water...

hi mag. bracket 1 - how do you get 'earth' out of this? according to the translating ogam script chart, the letter 'e' has 4 full bars across - not 5 as shown. robert.

Robert,

Malcolm's wt HERE has the triplets for each word.

mag. part of my problem is i find yours, malcolm's and the UHS walkthroughs difficult to read and make sense of: SORRY. robert. p.s. i have to go at snails pace and think completely before taking any action. i like your responses but take it slowly. my question to you still stands.

The Ogam scripts overlap from one script to the next one.
I don't remember seeing e with 4 full bars.

Did you select to use the blue Ogam Translator Program? This is in the second e-mail sent by Jon.

Earth:

Find and then click in order from top to bottom (in order) - the scripts on left column.

hi mag. i give up! do you have a saved game please? thanks, robert.

It's on the way.

thank you, mag. robert.

You're welcome. Have fun.

hi mag. chapter 3 - stone building. how on earth do i take the ladder, i can't? the w/t says something about seeing the scaffolding on the house earlier. do i go back and what do i do? robert.

hi mag. i've reached save 100. the reason i checked is because i keep having to re-save the same game to reach the same point in the game. is there a finite number of saves? how can i overcome this? robert.

There might be only 100 slots for saved games.
Best to make a new folder and place COPIES of your saved games in there.
Then you can overwrite over those copied saved game numbers.

hi mag. ok, i have created a new folder with #100 save inside with a new shortcut. how do i now relate the RHIANNON game program to the new shortcut? robert.

You are just keeping that #100 save file in a safe place. You do not use a shortcut or open it. If you want to use it again - take it out and place it back in its original place.

Now play the game and you can save anew by overwriting #100.
If you want to save more - keep earlier saved game files (maybe 1-20) in that new folder.
Then play and overwrite the 1-20 saved games.
If you want to use those original 1-20; keep the overwritten files in another folder and place back the original 1-20 in its place.

mag. can 't i just delete the first 99 saved games and carry on from saving from there?

If you don't need them for replay, try deleting the first 50 only. Keep us posted.

hi mag. where can i find the boiler room with jen's parcel? robert.

Hi robert,

Go to the side of the pond and face the house.
You will see the front door and to the left is a patio area.
Go to that patio area. You will now face 2 doors.
The one on the left is the boiler room.

hi rushes. i cannot find the boiler room! the only patio i know is behind the stables where the hazel twig was found. i can't find any door at left. robert.

Robert,

Follow the step by step stated by Rushes.

Face the front door with the pond on your back.
The patio is on the left side of the house.
Go there and check the left door.

i found boiler room! thanks mag and rushes. robert.

Great! Have fun.

hi mag. please help! i was collecting the chemicals and symbolic objects when i lost all my games since i entered the living room and a ghost of rhiannon??? walked through the living room wall and became a dead body in a coffin. i was last saving the computer mouse in malcolm's office when this happened. what do i do now? robert.

Robert,

Wait for my mail to ask several questions.

Did you get my e-mail?

hi mag. yes i got your email. i've got a copy of a copy etc. i think overdid the copy bit! sorry. i knew i was coming to the end of saves BUT!!! robert.

Then delete or overwrite the saves.

Are you okay now?

hi mag. i am deleting blindly here. i don't know where to stop at my last game as i can't identify each game. do you have a saved game after all the chemicals are taken or after RHIANNON BOSWELL? robert.

Do NOT delete blindly.

Check the DATES and TIME you did that saved game file.

You still have not told me the extensions of your saved game file. It matters because my saved games do not work with other games that is released by another publishers.

hi mag. my save games go all the way up to 100, with the exception of 20-33 inclusive, which i deleted. robert.

What is the extension of your saved game files?
It is the one after the period of the file label.
Below the extension is RhiannonSavGG

Example: save000.RhiannonSavGG

mag. please see my reply prior to your post. they all have the same extensions as your post. robert.

Check your e-mail now. I sent you a saved game.

I hope that your file extension is the same as mine.

Keep us posted.

mag. your saved game didn't work. robert.

So the extensions are different from my saved game?
Is it GG or another letters at the end?

See if you can renumber it as save020 - since you deleted that one.
Then scroll the load list and load #20.

mag. i deleted after backing up all games, and got your saved game. i am back in business, thanks, robert.

Great! Enjoy the game.

mag. i am at rhiannon boswell's tomb with the cross-shaped hole. it calls for a gears icon. what item should i use here? robert.

Rhiannon Boswell: Go forward twice upon entering the cemetery. Look above the Rhiannon Boswell's tomb and place the Air orb in the cup.

hi mag. i don't have the air orb in inventory yet. reading your w/t further on, the air orb is not picked up until later in the game. robert.

I don't know where you are now in the game - so maybe it is just an active spot to use later on. Have fun.

hi mag. i finished the game. TERRIFIC! thanks to mag and rushes. robert.

Robert! Glad you enjoyed it.

Hi MaG
I'm having a problem with Rhiannon.
I'm trying to pick up the charm after
leaving the old barn, but i can't get the
down arrow to get the image of a dead body,
so I may get the charm.I must have missed a
step but i don't what.I did find all the twigs.
Thanks for any help.
Chris

I remember that the place is tricky.

Turn left before the holly tree that made the missing Rhiannon sick.

Trace your step and see if you missed the spot.

Mag
I had to go back to the house to read the e mail
about the dead body. went back to the tree and
then got the down arrow. Thanks.
Chris

Glad you found what's holding you back. Have fun!
