Cheater!!! @_@
« on: February 08, 2009, 11:32:22 am »
Due to the way Sword of Moonlight handles bitmaps, anyone can easily view all the pictures used throughout the game by looking in the DATA/PICTURE folder.

While the some hints, dreams and ending pictures are given relatively ambiguous names, it still might take away from the Trismegistus experience, if the intention is not to be spoiled.

Is this considered cheating?  Not really.  You wouldn't be given the knowledge to beat this game by peering into this folder, but it does have some legitimate spoiler elements to it as far as several puzzles in the game.

For those of you interested in snooping around your installed Trismegistus game too see how things are put together, mind your eyeballs around the DATA/PICTURE folder -- if you don't want the possibility of anything revealed.

If you want to be spoiled, or missed that 3 second dream and want to see it again, by all means head to the DATA/PICTURE folder.  After all, its your game!  #_#

Woohoo!

Lol, just kidding.

Using the item that causes the dream sequence is much more fun than cheating=)

Well, use your alchemists knowledge on it, and it will reveal it is in fact for a gate door and not a chest.

If you haven't found a use for it yet, I will assume you haven't quite made it to the area with the fire crystal yet.

How many solves are you at?

I haven't played in a while but the turning statue has to do with getting the nearby staff. Go in the room where the Staff is located, if you take it, the room fills with lava and you can't get out.

Now remember the pedestal the staff is on, leave it there and go turn the statue once. Go back and look at the staff now.

That should point you in the right path without giving too much away.

Well moving forward, once u flip prespective the fire staff riddle becomes even harder. four crystles lock you out, two are easy enough but the two on the right i can't find my path to their counterparts. is there a hidden switch or plum sheild somewhere i'm missing?
Changing subjects on the mainland there by the fire crystle stand there is a magic seal on the ground all the others like this one my upheavle spell works on. whats up with that one?
