Just to be clear on my earlier report - it was user error and not anything to do with this excellent FM.
I was going somewhere I was not intended to be going. :laff:
Thanks for the help Eshaktaar!
I look forward to mission 2.

Wow, just finished! Everything was totally amazing!
This has the be the best dual-pack of the last few years :D
Eshaktaar, you have done an excellent job! :thumb:

chalice: I get the idea of what to do, however when I use the levers and obviously dont get the correct sequence, I can then move them up and down and nothing happens at all anymore. noone turns around.
a small hint please. thank you

dkessler: I don't think that is supposed to happen. Can you load an earlier save and try again?
The Elusive One: I can give you a hint. Have you played Temple of the Tides?
Eshaktaar on 1/6/2008 at 20:24
dkessler: Eep, that sounds indeed like a bug. Do you remember if you did something special, i.e. frob the same lever in quick succession? If you have a previous save where the switches still work, pull the first three levers from right to left, starting with the one that's to your right when you enter. After the third lever the field should vanish.
The Elusive One: Did you find a scroll called "An Odd Occurence"? There's a clue in there.

hmmm...the last one I have is before I inactivate the alarm. I do not save too often, which is more realistic game play for me.
This one of the typical Esh sequence puzzles which are normally straight forward, but here
the levers do not move the statues after you use two of them.

The statues should always move. Each lever controls a different set of statues, and you need them all to face away for the field to disappear.

While I do expect the statues to all move,
what I have encountered at least is that I can trigger "any" two of the four levers and then the statues do not move at all anymore. The levers still move up and down. As I said the idea is straigtforward.And maybe it is also only something with my install/system etc, but fact is I think that I will not get to taste that moonshine unless I can progress.:erg:

That's weird. At the moment I cannot say what could cause this, but I can send you an email with a link to a save game that puts you immediately after the puzzle.

Excellent mission, Eshaktaar - OB was brilliant, this is on the same level.
I'm stuck, and I can't figure out if this is due to a bug or not.
I deactivated the red security beam (both on the roof and in the exhibit) and removed the blue rays. Seems I may have done it in a wacky order, though - I flicked the roof switch, then the blue ray switch, last the exhibit switch. But my precious prize is completely non-frobbable/non-interchangable. Should it be?
I also had problems with the flower card. I figured out that the book code should be on it, but right clicking didn't display anything. I must have looked real silly dropping the card, magnifying my vision and squinting, trying to pick up a name from a heavily pixelated card...:sweat: I ended up reloading and breaking into the museum directors house just to see if the code would be there now - which it was.
So... tell me won't have to restart this...
