Title: The official Blackwell Convergence help thread!
Post by: Trihan on Thu 23/07/2009 22:45:15
Having completed the game twice I hereby declare myself the grand authority on all things Blackwell and am more than willing to offer subtle pushes in the right direction for anyone who may happen to get stuck.

Have at it!

OK...I know I must be brain dead today, but I can't figure out what to do after talking to Frank Lyon's ghost. And to think, I'm stuck in the beginning! Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated!

Certain things that Rosa can say to Frank might give you a clue as to what you're ultimately going to have to do to solve this puzzle. And remember that you have two characters. ;)

Thank you. I'll keep plugging away. Maybe try again after I've had some coffee  ;D

Erm, just in case...

*SPOILERS*

I'm having trouble logging into Paul's Bmail acount.  It won't accept the login, which I believe should be PaulM@Bmail.com.  I even have the password, so don't understand why this is a problem.

It's just PaulM. The clue is Rosa's login name.

*Warning, SPOILERS*

Ok, so I've got rid of Frank, I've hacked Paul's account, I've talked to Claude in the bar (and now he's vanished). The day is still young, so I can't go to the opening of the gallery, and I have talked to everyone about everything that is in my notebook. Where the heck do I go now? I am well and truly stuck.  ???

Sephy: There's an email in Paul's account that will suggest something for you to search for on the computer.

There's the widow, to which I get a response about "filed for chapter 11 status" (which means nothing to me), "artists", which may be useful for later but isn't currently, or the clue about the name Paul used to call Charlie. I'd seen this already, unfortunately, and still have no clue where to look next - it doesn't put anything into my notebook, so I have no further questions, and it doesn't give me any extra locations - so unfortunately, I'm still stuck. I have a feeling I'm going to kick myself when I find out what I'm overlooking, but could you clue me in a little more?

Thanks.

Sephy.

As far as I know once you've Oogled "artists" and talked to Claude in the Minetta, the gallery opens. Have you been to the gallery prior to the opening to look at the Dark Lady painting with Joey yet?

Looks like it was just a glitch - I looked at the tag on Ilsa again, which meant I had Frank Lyon's apartment as a location, and somehow it seems that caused it to not work the way it should.

Finished the game now, though I was surprised, and a little pissed, at how short it was - after all that waiting, there's barely anything to it. Fantastic soundtrack, though!

Thanks for the help  :)

First room. Joey only says "I'll be back to the ghost and she and Joey have ended the conversation... just repeat now. What do I do. What did I miss?
Thanks.

Geewhiz: Pull back the middle curtain and then have Joey go outside to talk to the ghost. I think that's what you wanted? If not, let me know.

Deea: The brothers mention something about their internet. Can you remember a particular trait of Joey that we've used in a previous game?

I've already talked to Monique, Frank, and the bartender as many times I can. But I still don't know what to do next!
