You need to give Fiona a pink note in order to get the gold ring; have you shown that note to her? wave

Yes, you do need the ring. If I remember correctly, though, you will also see Fiona at the beginning of Chapter Two and can get the ring from her then as well. Have you been to the notice board and read the note before you try to talk to Fiona? wave

Hi robert, have you followed the walkthrough for this puzzle? If you have, it wouldn't hurt to try following these instructions again.

Machine: Go to the machine on the left screen by the door. Save game here.
1. Use the ring on the 2 separated wires to get power to the machine.
2. Set all 4 levers to the horizontal position by flipping the left and right screws. The left screw holds in place any of the levers (seen with red light) and the right screw moves the other 3 levers.
a. From Left to right - Keep the red light on #1 lever and click on right screw to have 1 and 2 levers similar in position.
b. Click on left screw to move red light to #3 lever and then move the right screw so that 1, 2, 3 are in the same position.
c. Click on left screw to move red light to #4 lever which should now be in horizontal position (if not in horizontal position start over using the saved game) and then click on right screw to have them all in horizontal.
3. Turn the valve of the tank on the left and that will move the pressure gauge from 100 to 37.5.
4. Turn the wheel to drain the water.
5. Take the clamp off the tubing. When you exit, April will take her ring back or take the ring before exiting.

Hi robert, I don't know exactly your location in the game right now, but here are some instructions on how to get to the subway station when you are at the cafe. From the cafe, take the path branching off to the left near the Border House path, or you can also get there by going to the park and then taking the left path. Then, go down the stairs and look at the gene scanner. wave

Hi robert, if you have the datacube and a printout, have you also:

Click to reveal..
taken a look at the computer screen and fixed Warren's record by clicking on "edit?" Have you also looked at Warren's profile where it says something about his sister and his family and then clicked on the capital letters with Erica's name to get her colonization number, and then searched for her number? Have you also looked at the info on the Church of Voltec and clicked on "Jacob McAllen" and then run a search on that name?


I hope you are enjoying the game. wave

Hi robert, no problem, let's try again. Here is what MaG's walkthrough says about the archives; feel free to read it over and see what you may have missed. This should be a better explanation. smile

Quote:
Exit and go to the door at right of the pop machine. Use Minnelli's eye on retinal scanner. In the Archive room is a printer, computer and control panel. Use the computer and search for Warren Hughes. Click on 'Erika Hughes' to remember her colonization number. Click on 'delete' and then 'print' on the screen. Click on 'Main' and search (scroll down) for the col#0050123185353260 (if you search for Erika Hughes or Vanguard, there will be no info available). Print the info about Erika Drake. Click on 'main' again and search for Church of Voltec. Click on Jacob McAllen's name on the screen. Search for Jacob McAllen and after the warning, click continue and look close at the code at bottom right (make note of it). Go back to 'main' and select Log off. Take the printouts from the printer. Look at and use control panel. Enter the code seen on Jacob McAllen's search. Click on buttons 11, 16, 1 and 8. Look at the Vanguard folder automatically placed in inventory and find the Vanguard datacube.

Hi Robert,

MaG's walkthrough says:

After the long commentaries, say "I'm looking for some information, but I'm not sure which book to ask for".

In your dialogue box you should then see a line that mentions the flying people. If you can't see that line, you might need to scroll down the dialogue box. There could be too many lines to fit onscreen at one time. Minstrum Yerin should then bring you the book about the Alatians.

It's the selectable lines of dialogue that appear for you to click on, usually at the bottom of the game screen. smile

There's a LOT of dialogue in this section at the enclave. It'll take quite a while to get through it all, if you want to cover everything.

Did you talk to Brian Westhouse yet, and did he mention the "flying people"?

You need to have covered this topic in dialogue with other characters first, in order to be able to ask about it at the enclave.

Then, at the enclave, choose the line "I'm looking for some information, but I'm not sure which book to ask for...", and you should see an option to select for "the flying people".

Hi Robert,

You need to give him the delivery list from your inventory. He'll only accept it if you completed the last delivery that he gave to you and acquired a signature for it. What was the last delivery that you made? You should have clicked the list on that person to get their signature of receipt for the map. luck
