I didn't have to shuffle Van Helsing around to any particular position, I don't think that should be causing the problem. I'll send that save across to you now, check your e-mail in a few minutes. :wave12:

What an ending! Thanks for the saved game, Rushes! I was surprised at the guest Duchess Orlowski had and that she knew this person. Odd! Anyway, Merry Christmas to all as you all have saved me from many a trial and tribulation!

:Christmas: maxcat!

I love this game! Glad you enjoyed it too.

You're welcome, maxcat. :christmas: to you too.

hi all

now i am on this game. the game is great. i have had no problem working the game. i am at dracula castle in the stable and i just cant find the pulley. i would appreciate any help. i am going to keep trying.

I found the pulley but now i am trying to put it all together and it is not working.i get the rope on the pulley on ceiling but i cant get the trap to attach on the rope.

They are on the sealing one on the right other on the left of the room

Thanks Ameno.



See the picture and where the hotspot is located on the rope - that is where it should be.

Hi Taxlady,

There are two pulleys, both in the foreground of your screen, but one is on the far left, the other on the far right. They are very dark and difficult to spot, so you might need to hunt around with your cursor. Make sure the rope is attached to both.

thanks for your help it worked fine. now i am in the great hall. i am trying to put the numbers in the sword and he keeps telling me he need more info. i think i did everything i am supposed to.

Taxlady,

Be sure that you exhausted all conversation with the coachman.
Also have clicked on the name and number on the top of the coffins and clicked on the tags of the portrait in the hall.

hi all

i finally finished this game and i really loved it. i want to thank you and evryone who helped.

Great that you finished and enjoyed the game. :thumbsup12: It's one of my favourites too.

hi i'm stuck in the same place as maxcat was so if u could send the saved game it would be great - i see a hand near the door and have done all the correct things but he goes in and doesnt place the bowl on the floor. thanks and a HNY to u all

lorre,

Did you check the white painting-tapestry below the tapestry of the knights and get Helsing to note what it is about: Genesis - Fiat lux?

Saved game sent.

Hey GBrs, (and Rushes) Just finished D.O.(with lots o' help) I was able to figure out a lot using my own gray matter, I like it when that happens, I hate it when I finish a good game,(game addict withdrawl?) now what do I do with myself? Gotta go hunt up a new game, have fun, good game...Roxx

Hi Roxx, glad you had fun with the game. There are plenty of new games around at the moment to choose from, you won't have withdrawal for long.

Is there a reset button for the pyramid puzzle?

If this is the pyramid shadows or the pyramids on the sand - I don't remember any reset.
I just take the pyramids off and replace them with different ones.

?How can I change the pyramids? My game does not seem to allow this.

Have you already placed the pyramids in the sand basin? What happens if you click on any of them?

If you're using XP and want to send me a save at the puzzle I'll check it out for you.

WHEN I try to get a pyramid from the items he says I need light...I then can't get one.

jorja,

Are you still selecting the correct pyramids from all the pyramids in your inventory?

If so, you need to read-click the middle pillar at left of chamber. Use the lit lantern on the pillar.

That might be the light you need.

/waves Hello

So I'm a newbie to the forum and I'm having trouble getting past the part where I need make the trap for the Coachman. I did everything I needed to do according to the WT. After baiting the trap with the rat I still have an option to click on the trap and I don't know what to do? I've picked everything up that I needed to and now I am stuck.

TIA

Arcanarose,

Let's review how to do the trap.
You have 2 ropes. Use one rope on the pulley on the ceiling at left side.
Attach the leghold trap on that hanging rope.
Then use the other rope on the leghold trap.
You then attach that rope attached to the trap on the other pulley at right side of the ceiling.

Get the rat and then click it on the trap.
After this and everything is done correctly - a cutscene will happen.
