What are the chances of a Christmas 2014 release??? Come on, I know you can do it!!

I've just started browsing AGS for the first time in a few months and i am very happy to see an update here. I myself have been away from the production of it but now that i am back i hope we see more and more updates here! Yay!

Lyaer:

Spoiler

You have to use the Honey in order to get the Varg to leave

[close]

Now I am stuck at the same part but JUST after that if anyone knows what I should do....

Spoiler

Still tied to the rock with Thrivaldi standing right there. I am a mage but can't cast any spell and don't know how to get untied.

Spoiler

One of them should turn on (it was the 3rd from the left I believe). I don't know if the game lets you do this before you're supposed to though. Did you get the Find Heime quest? Did you learn about the stone circle in the game?
Maybe it is different for the magic user, I haven't played as one yet.

Yea the 3rd one says it's warm to the touch. But then what?

Spoiler

You have to touch them in the correct order, always walking clockwise.  3 6 1 4 5 2  But don't bother until AFTER you've talked to the captain in Fortigtuna and bought mead.

Thank you very much for dumbing it down for me...I usually don't have so much trouble...I'll let you know if I'm still too dumb to figure it out! LOL

Spoiler

but how do you activate them? When I use the hand icon, it just says they are "cold"[\hide]

(Playing as sorceress)  How do I activate the circle of stones to get into Svartalfheim?  I can turn on all of the standing stones, but then... nothing.  Apparently I was supposed to talk to the librarian, but the book is checked out and I cannot find out by whom.  Neither can I solve his riddle.  (Yes, I translated it.) 

Any suggestions?

I also need help with this....I'm a mage and I'm stuck. Do I "touch" them? Cast a spell? The Librian says to "walk clockwise" but how does that activate them?

Thanks, very helpful!

LTGiants2000:
Sounds like a bug, and there seem to be a good deal more (spoilers).
Version 1.1 was already announced I believe.

Thanks Khris, someone was saying there is more to the puzzle though, after I complete it if it's still respawning then I'll know it's a glitch. Apparently fighting him does not "kill" him.

I've got a question in the spoilers below for anyone who has made some progress in the game as the Wizard class.

Spoiler

Aurvandel posted a request to kill the Haugbui in front of the gates. I went out at night, fought it and killed it. Then I came back and it was there again! I killed it 2 or 3 times and eventually it didn't come back (I wandered around the forest a bit before returning to the castle). Now there is no option to "turn in" this quest? No dialogue option with Aurvandel about me having slain the Haugbui. How do I claim my reward??

Forget the above, I posted in the Crystal Shard forum and got an answer, thx. Feel free to remove this post if possible mods.

Err well

SPOILERS

In the second town in the inn open the window and go to bed and a thief will break into your room and you will get a piece of their cloak.

I didn't get such a piece. Until I read this I was hoping for the thief to return, sleeping with open and closed windows over and over, returned once I had any money again, but no effect...

Cianty, spoilers regarding this below...

Spoiler

There is a building in town with lots of hidden switches and a letter near each switch. The building may not be accessable until later in the day or after you speak to someone in particular because I remember not being allowed in the front door until after the thief came.

Been waiting for this one SOOOO long, thank you all for all your work. It seems to have paid off in massive amounts!!! ;-D;-D;-D;-D;-D;-D

Err well

SPOILERS

In the second town in the inn open the window and go to bed and a thief will break into your room and you will get a piece of their cloak. Use this on the dog in the town and eventually it will lead you to the place. In the room you need to examine the objects and they will all give you a letter, (Dont miss the Ligh/Ceiling one   .... No idea how to reach it if you cant throw though (Can wizards levitate? )

Thanks Romulus, I actually got to this point already (Wizards have a bolt spell to shoot the ceiling) however I don't know the order of the letters. Is there a little hint you can toss my way to help me figure out this puzzle? Not sure what I'm trying to spell here. Thanks!

I'm having trouble getting into what I assume is the thieves guild. Can anyone reply with a spoiler on how to get in as a magic user (sorry, I'm writing this from my phone so I can't do the spoiler text option), thanks guys.

I think I saw something about a demo on the Facebook page. Are you going to be releasing a demo?

CaptainD,

I just checked your profil. There are two links of Captain Disaster.

The first one seems to be a commercial game and the second one says nothing.

Is Captain Disaster a commercial game of a free game to play?

He's got a few projects going at the same time but I'll let him elaborate on that 

Thanks for the info, LTGiants2000.

No problem!

@Volcan I use Camtasia, it's not free (as I was given a copy through my job) however there is a free trial available:

Also I did not record the audio with these videos, I actually added audio (mp3's) to the video when editing.

You're welcome @Diamond16.....I was actually jamming to the Speeder Showroom tune when I was working on some of the art the other day.....gives me such great "monkey island" vibes!   

The music is so well done, bravo! @Diamond16 great job on all pieces & great background art too @TheBitPriest!

Ah yes, this will be a great warm up for "Stomping Boots". Congrats Dave!
