Title: Duty and Beyond
Post by: piperhcombs on Thu 13/07/2006 07:16:55
I've gone through a multitude of activities on the submarine, and now I'm stuck.

Spoiler
I've gotten the form that gives me access to the excavation site from the captain. All I have to do is figure out where the *beep* the site is! Anyone know where to find it?

I can answer questions about other activities on the submarine.

I'm kinda stuck in the house.

Spoiler
I'm looking for the safe combination, but I can't find his study. I assume the place where his wife used to lie in the sun is the comfy chair outside and I assume that's his wife's grave. I also assume that the place where bird's raise their young is the bird's nest and and I can ALMOST reach it by leaning out the window. I also have a giant amount of inventory items.

Help anyone!

Hi there.

Spoiler
I'm really stuck in the village, have put the wizards sign in the ground (and hammered it in), that doesn't seem to do anything, I have the sword, I need the burnt S on the cloth (presuming it's something to do with the Goblin fire) and am missing a few items for the magic thingymajigs (off the top of my head...mind of a creature and a physical object that can change events.. the herb (which the adventurer has...need to find a way to fix the harp) I think the other objects I need will come when I've collected the amulet and forced someone over the cliff edge, but I can't be sure.

Ok I have a question,
Spoiler
I managed to get the foot and was transported back to where the grave is, problem is I didn't finish all the tasks that I know I was supposed to do in the submarine like cook the meal because I was missing the starfish and hadn't got rid of the chef yet either. So now I am back on top with none of the inventory items I got in submarine and I can't back down there, does this mean I have screwed up?

Thanks Piper

Spoiler
yes i have talked to guy who was terminated and got the letter he had. I guess I will have to go back to a saved game, I didn't want to leave the submarine I think it was when I picked up the foot from the ocean that was when I was automatically taken to above ground again and as far as I can see I can't get back again, we got there by going through the grave didn't we? I don't have a shovel anymore lol.

I think this may be a flaw in the game, but ... In the mansion there was a trophy you could pick up. Give this trophy to the apple dealer then give the apple to the unicorn. Interact with it to get one of it's hairs. The bug I think is that how would someone complete this puzzle if they never picked up the trophy in the mansion?

Btw, How do I wear the armour to get into the dragon cave?

if you dont pick up the trophy, you lose points, but it will then magically appear in your inventory when you arrive at village.  ;D

Mind of an animal? I think that's the last item I need for my recipes. Where do I get that from?

Take a look at what the sleeping guy says, maybe you could take some notes.
You need to cut down the weed by the fairy and the squirrel will drop something, pick it up and the squirrel will follow you around the forest...head to where the special flower is and he'll show you how to get there.
I don't think the red gem is, I think the shady character in the bar has clues on how to get it...give him plenty to drink.
It's not a mind of an animal exactaly...remember Mordy has telekenetic powers.....

Go to the forest and find the STICK on the floor somewhere. Go to the BLACKSMITH and USE the STICK with the FIRE. Then use the BURNING STICK with the CLOTH to burn an "s"-shape into it.

Spoiler
If you talk to the first guy in line on the third floor, he tells you he's been terminated. Now, go to the second floor and talk to the council (two crew member sitting at a table). Ask them if they know Roy and they'll say he was probably terminated because he's alleric to anything old. If you searched the sacks on the bottom floor earlier, you know that they contain old food. Now, you need to disguise this old food so it look noce and fresh and healthy. Of course, the hospital wing should have healthy food right? on the shelf above the resting patient is a plate of what looks like carrots. Use the old food on the carrots and give it to the terminated guy on the third floor. He'll have an allergic reaction and you can them take his termination form and give to the chef to "fire" him.

Took me forever to realize this was there, and yet it was so obvious.  ;)
Spoiler
if you look at the pipe connecting the tanks (underneath the tank) you see that the right end of the piper end in a grey knob. This is the "faucet", as the hotspot is labelled. just use it-Piet will close off the pipe. Now crack a tank with something and let the scientist know it's leaking. If you managed to get the termination letter than you already got rid of the terminated guy-he's out cold, so the secretary can't help him with anything.

I've no idea what I have missed in the village... I thought I already did everything possible, such as

Spoiler
finished and used all the spells, killed the dragon, visited the goblins, put the guard to sleep - still the chief doesnt' give me the hand. What on earth am I missing? Do I have to kill the guard, not just use the sleep spell? The sword isn't working there. My inventory: pizza (obviously), plunger, umbrella, meat, safe note, cards, coin, fish (I harpooned another one from the sea, don't know if I need it though), blue gem, axe, pickaxe, hammer, spellbook, mind spell (even though I already used it on the goblin), sword, bronze fist and finally, red gem.

I suppose the solution is something really simple, I just can't figure this one out.

There's one locked door on the floor with the bedroom and the bathroom in a row and there's those three deer heads on the wall. The left one kinda looks like one but I can't do anything do it.

hmm, that sounds like a bug.  :-\ thanks for letting me know, joyce! im sorry for the inconveniance.  :'( try "interacting" with the door, and pressing escape. if that doesn't work, i guess loading a previous game is the only option. im really sorry. ill fix it right away!

i just tried exactly what you said, but i can't reproduce the bug? is there anything else specific you did? when you pick up the snake you're already past the point where he says "I'm not going anywhere near that snake"? so, i guess you went back again. i tried everything, but can't seem to reproduce it.

Went back to a saved game and this time I killed the snake and then walked past it towards the exit, turned around and then picked it up and that worked. The first time I did it I was on the right side of the snake, crusher came down, killed snake, I picked it up when I was still at the right side and then tried walking towards exit and thats when I got the message.

You need to get rid of that vulture, try throwing something at him, then interact with the skeleton...to get rid of the man you need to find something he would be interested in seeing (like the engravings in one of the rooms(can't remember which)), tell him about it and he will leave.

I dunno ... I actually got a lower score than you and received a worse ending!Ã,  Ã, :P

However, a couple of things I might point out:

Spoiler
The octopus / periscope thing isn't actually a side-quest ... you need to complete that task so the Captain will ultimately give you the permission form to retrieve the foot from the excavation site, so it's central to the game.Ã,  There was, however, a side-quest on the submarine involving a recipe for an illegal delicacy and rescuing someone from prison.Ã,  Did you solve that?

It's very tricky ... there are so many actions to take in this game, it's nearly impossible to figure out what you missed!Ã,  But that's the challenge, of course ...

when you are in the wizard's tower, go two screens left (you should now be in the forest). look for an arrow that goes south. take that path. you should now see the campfire.  ;)

If that's the case, I'm not really sure if I want to continue playing the game. It was really fun but very frustrating too since I dislike pixel-hunts so much.

Title: Re: Duty and Beyond
Post by: Mordalles on Fri 13/10/2006 23:47:09
well, hmm.

Spoiler
if you are in the last room, you should walk to the far right. a cutscene will automatically play once you reach the center of the room.

are you sure you are actually in the last room? you reach it by sliding down the rope (attached to a plunger).
it is underneath the basement. a small black room with three lights coming from the ceiling.

otherwise, i'm not sure why nothing will happen. i'll have to check the code. 
:-\
try walking accross the room a few times. he should trigger the cutscene when he walks over a certain area in the center.

let me know if you still have problems.

nope, it doesn't matter how many points you have or what items you have or have not, it will have no impact on it. the cutscene starts no matter what you did during the game. you can have 0 points and not have touched any item in the game, and the cutscene will start.
could you perhaps e-mail me your save game? mordalles@webmail.co.za.
are you playing the game in windowed mode? i really have no idea why it's not working. since, there are no conditions for the cutscene to start. it just starts.  ???

hi, alusa.  :)

i'm not sure what you mean with "a scientist just identify himself"? also not sure what "lost link" you mean? could you please explain.  ;)
Spoiler

-if you already fixed the power then you can tell the second crew member (guy in orange clothes) that the power is fixed.
to fix the power you need to put an orange wire in the panel in the room with the fans/vents. when all three fans are moving, you know the power is fixed.
- to get rid of the scientist, you need to talk to him (all options), and then go a few rooms to your right. you'll find a room with some yellow tanks. first close the tap, and then break one of the tanks with a shovel. then go back to scientist and give him the news of the broken tank.

points you are probably missing:

i always got the window thing and did remember the blue cups...but was a bit unsure of what to do with stan as a pig and whatnot. the wt should help!

just as a sidenote and kudos to Mordalles, i think the lo-res graphics are making a comeback. as hard as VGA stylizing owns, I thought the sharp combination of the scrolling widescreen with the small areas was really cool and original. Very sharply different from Mordy 2! Which I got all 3 different endings to and definitely would love to see a Mordy 3. :)

It's been a long time since I played this game, but if I remember correctly, you have to earn it by doing something for him. Don't ask me what - I don't remember.

Or have you already done what he wanted you to do? I think he gives it to you automatically when you tell or show him that you've done what he wanted, or given him what he wanted.

Title: Lights out

I'm stuck at the underwater part of the game. ???
I'm doing everything I can, but it is still very dark inside the submarine - I see nothing except the "bac to the station" hotspot.
How do I switch the light on?

Your submarine should have a spotlight in front of it.  You should not need to switch it on; it should be there automatically.

pani_nebaluy:
If you still have trouble seeing anything on your screen try adjusting the settings on your monitor to make your monitor brighter.  This is actually a pretty dark part of the game, so you may just have to look carefully while you explore.

I have read all 15 pages of posts and can't find my answer.

How do I talk to the guard at the dig site? Every time I get close he shoos me away and I can't find the hot spot to talk to him.

Ok, this isn't a hint per se.  Its just that I forgot what a character said in game and I can't get him to talk again.

In the Goblin Fortress:
Spoiler
I caught the mouse, I gave it to the chef, and he said something (he mentioned sausages, and serving it to the king), I put sausage into the stew.  But It says it needs something before serving it.  What was the chef's exact words again? He doesn't talk any more. I have a plate, sword and dungeon key in my inventory.

i don't think the chef asked you to put anything else en, apart from the sasuges.
but, you have to put something else in yourself. the prisoner in the dungeon might help you. he will give you something in return for his freedom.

stop a little bit away from the guard (keep the guard at the edge of the screen), then use talk icon on him.
