Title: Infinity String
Post by: dronon on Tue 03/07/2007 05:09:52
I've made it to part 2 of the game, and I've done some things, but can't figure out how to proceed.
Spoiler
I've made a two-pronged key, but lack a power source to open the door it's for. I've put together a makeshift weapon. I've figured out how to make the statue's eyes glow blue.  I'm missing some kind of programmable cartridge. I can't figure out how to open the door in the room with the hole and the crate.

I'm stuck at exactly the same point.

I've managed to overcome being stuck by doing something else and getting back to the game after a while twice now, but I'm really at my wits end here.
Title: Re: Infinity String
Post by: dronon on Tue 03/07/2007 06:02:25
Aha - I've gotten past that point now.
Spoiler
In the small spaceship, there's a panel on the floor you can open.
[close]

But now I'm stuck again, probably close to the end of the game.
Spoiler
I chose to destroy the ship and returned to the jungle. I managed to get into the room with the crate and the hole, but have no idea what to do in there.

I'm stuck at the same place dronon was in the first post but I lack the following information:
Spoiler
How do you make the key? Is it made from the two metal cylinder things? If so, how do I join them together?
[close]

Also, KhrisMUC:
Spoiler
You know that battery you found on the robot? Did you put it in the cartridge machine? Did you know you can remove it from the machine?
[close]

Allen:
Spoiler
To make the alien key, the missing piece is through the iron gate on the other side of the river.
[close]

Getting over the pit is a bit of a puzzle:
Spoiler
Move one of the statue heads outside, using something in your inventory.
[close]

And if things are still out of reach:
Spoiler
Use screws on the vine, hang the vine down the grate, and then use the device you have that attracts metal to swing over.

Hmm, I put the battery in the programator, but I didn't find a cartridge yet.
I have the key with two prongs and figure I have to open the door in the ship I awoke in, but there's no power. I've removed two panels and opened another one, but the wire is too short and there's no power source.
[close]
I'd love to continue playing, so please drop me a hint.

KhrisMUC, you're actually giving the answer to the problem yourself:

Spoiler
"I put the battery in the programator [...] I have to open the door in the ship I awoke in, [...] and there's no power source." - many things in this game can be picked up again after use...

Post by: Khris on Tue 03/07/2007 09:00:50
@GG:
Argh!
Spoiler
The first time I even *did* pick the battery back up since it was useless to leave it there without the cartridge. But when I finally put together the key, I had tried so many things in between that I didn't bother and left it in the programator.
I'm gonna cry now.

The pipe with the gum will help you fish something out of a hole in the hallway floor - that item will in turn grant you access to the room where you'll find an item to get you down the hole

Huh, I expected that some puzzles would be a bit more challenging, but some of you already made it to the end :). I guess I was wrong :D .

MadEvie what do you mean your game crashed ? And how did you loose youre savegame ? A bug ?

If the monster gets you, that the game restarts- as it's the only way to die in the game..

Title: Re: Infinity String

Sektor 13: I like this game, the graphics are great and it has just the right level of complexity for my brain!  I still don't understand all the backstory but regardless it's been entertaining and fun so far.

i have exact the same problem like @MadEvie had.

i allready have the stuff. but i can't find a pipe to continue..

To get the frozen metal bar, you have to cook some water in a self-made vessel and pour it over the bar. The metal bar should help you go on.

In my inventory I have a battery, empty bullet case, gun powder, wire, and everything else from part 1.  I've attached 2 screws to the vine and put it in the lattice, but I'm not sure what to do next.  I think I need to use the magnetic function of the pulse reader but I'm not sure how to do that.  I put the battery in the floor compartment in the ship and the alien programator, but haven't gotten any further.  I pushed the lamp over the grate in the room by the guard, but I don't have a cartridge for the laptop and I can't sneak the small metal part and small key past the guard.

I'm stuck in the alien spaceship....

Spoiler
I've gotten as far as picking up the blue crystal, but I don't know how to move the robot off the big plate.  I've tried putting both the cartridges (with the battery) in the alien programator, but nothing happens.  Also, I still can't get past the door in the room with the hole and the army chest, or the door below the statue with the glowing eyes.

Maybe you have to
Spoiler
try to move the robot by using the blue cartridge on the control panel next to it. Your character will tell you you need to reprogram it first. Then go back to the guarded room and use the battery and the blue cartridge on the programmer to upload the new program. Wait until the upload is complete. Then go back to the robot... In case you find out what to do with the crystal, can you post it here, please?
[close]

I'm trying to get the "good ending" and I am stuck here:
What can you do with the blue
Spoiler
crystal? Does it open the door with the statue with the glowing eyes? If so, how? If it doesn't open it, how *do* you open it?  :(

Groogokk, thanks, I actually figured that out right before you posted.  So now I got the "bad" ending, still working on the "good" one....

Spoiler
I still don't know what to do with the blue crystal.  I noticed the slot next to the door by the statue with the glowing eyes, but don't know what to do put in it.  I still don't know how to get in the room with the hole and the army chest.

If you're talking about after you've used it and the battery's drained, then you don't need it.  You'll pick up another one later in the game, after you've teleported.

yep u 're right... i totaly forgot about the huge door etc..

a power source for the "programator"? I had the battery in there at one point, but I needed it to open the door in the spaceship and now it is flat. Should I be recharging the battery somehow or using something else instead?

I think you need to go back to the beginning area of the game(outside with the tents), and then put the necklace on when the voice tells you to.
