Title: Stuck in Pirate fry 3
Post by: Mats Berglinn on Sat 01/11/2003 15:15:21
I'm trying to get turtle piss but when I try to give it the mug of coffee Fry says that the coffee needs to thicken up. How do I do that?

I apoligize, but I like to start vague on my hints...

Spoiler


You'll need to find another inventory item, try looking to the left of the turtle area

I've been trying the use the "small knife" on the "big goofy lock" without any luck.  Is that the right knife or is there something else I'm supposed to be doing??

Heh, nows theres a vague question for my vague answer...

I'll assume your asking me to further the current question...
Spoiler

You'll need the butterknife from the healers hut, after you catsh the parrot. It's next to the stove. use it on the big goofy lock to unscrew it. then you can get in

Good luck and have fun.

Hi! I can't get the snake. Everytime I tried to kill it with the stick/knife it runs back into its hole. What to do? Or should I get the turtle piss first???

I have the turtle piss...yuck! But i think it looks more like a tortoise...i still can't get the snake...maybe fry should lie down and pretend to be dead so that the snake comes out to bite him, then quickly kill it with his knife! How's that? Juuuuust kidding...

Where can I get a dynamite? Do  I need that to trap the grumpy guy in the shed?

Okay, tips for getting the snake...
Spoiler

To get the snake you'll need to use the rock from the turtle area.

For the Dynomite
Spoiler

It's in the healers, in a box.

I have been clicking all over the place, and don't know where to go.  The posts I've been reading don't seem to help with where I'm stuck so far...

Spoiler
I have the hammock, the useless stick, the small rock (which I can't use with the snake den yet), the fruit, the warning, the mint leaves, and have used the bone on the dog.  I still can't get rid of the bird.  I have read about the turtle, but don't see him anywhere.  I can't get anywhere with the man on the ladder.  I have seen the headless guards, and can't open the useless lock.  Am I missing an area in the game?

Thanks!

Use hammock with bird!  :o

I just tried that again, and when I try to "use" hammock with demonic bird, the command automatically switches to "walk to".  I even started a new game, and the same thing happens.
Any ideas?

Hmm. I've never had this problem reported to me before. One problem with this lec interface I used for this game was that if you just happen to be a pixel off it wont say anything. I've clicked on things before and had no reaction, and had to do it again because I justed missed. I'm hoping thats what your problem is.

I did have the parrot too close to a hotspot called "Badly drawn grass" and I've seen some beta-testers accidentally click that. Maybe thats whats happening. Anyway, I apoligize for any troubles my game has given you, and I hope you work it out.

karelimur re the demonic parrot
Spoiler
have you had the chat with the healer where she tells you the bird is mad because she took all the fruit from the tree by the ocean? If not, talk to her then you have the item the bird wants and then you can trap it!

I have a different type of problem! The game keeps shutting down on me with this message

An error has occured. Please contact the game author for support, as this
problem is caused by the game rather than the interpreter.
(ACI version 2.56.627)

(Global script line 615)
Error: RunInventoryInteraction: invalid inventory number

Should I just download the game again or play on through in spite of it?!

Hmm, I'll have to look into that one. A lot of other folks have played the game to completion with out that problem, so I hope you can try to play it again also, and maybe have better luck. I can assure you though that I will look into it and have a new release in a few days.

hey i get that error above too, sometimes - normally when i click on an item in my inventory... another thing, i've noticed that after you've given the bone to the dog, the game still lets you go and pick up another bone from the pile - which isn't used in the game, dunno if thats really a bug or not... anyway, very cool game!! liked the ending ;-)

Thank you Mr. Blub. I've had the bone bug reported to me before, and I intend to fix it....heh, just been busy I guess. Now this whole crazy inventory bug is yet another new ont to me. It's a weird one I may not be able to fix.

Anyway, thanks for playing the game, and double thanks for the feedback.

Title: Re:Stuck in Pirate fry 3
Post by: Squinky on Mon 10/11/2003 03:25:34

First you'll need to push the rock in front of him, Then you'll need to try and get the ladder. More tips to follow

Squinky, you said to get the dynamite from the box in the Healer's Hut. But when I try to open the box with the "Open" action, it says I can't. Am I going about things the wrong way or is it a bug?
Title: Re:Stuck in Pirate fry 3
Post by: on Fri 21/11/2003 11:55:29
Oh that's okay, I've solved it. You have to pick it up before you open it.
