Yeah, same here. I haven't played it, so could only point you to a walkthrough. If I had to guess though, you probably missed something that you need to do to trigger the appearance.

it certainly wasn't easy and I havent played in so long I can't help with this puzzle sorry. looking at one of the other walkthroughs, there is a note that says a certain character won't turn up unless you have a certain tablet. not sure if its the character you are after but its a round the same place
Quantity has a quality all of its own

Peter, I don't know for sure, because it is so many years ago (20?) since I played Schizm. But what you described sounds very similar to a problem that I had back then. I was waiting for man to appear and give or tell me something and he just did not come. Somehow I was missing what triggered it. I went to EVERY place in the whole world but he did not show up. Guess what the solution was? I used different saves (with more or less the same game state) to get everywhere because it was quicker to just load a ave where I already was at the location I wanted to explore once again rather than walking to the location with currently loaded save.. Only when I used ONE saved game and walked in every corner of the game without saving or loading the man appeared.
So If you still have the problem, I think it is worth a try.

Oldbroad, there certainly is no shame in consorting a walkthrough fro schizm. It is one of the most difficult Myst-games I ever played and i played lot. Perter, cool that you found out why you were stuck Have fun both of you. And I heard the DVD is MUCH better than the CD version.
