A thought as I beg for a simple answer. I have spent four days at the stone panel in the cave. No luck! Since there are 10 buttons on each side, and all the possibilities (Calculated as 10! 10 x 9 x 8 etc) total to 3,628,800 possibilities per side, I am too old to ever guess at this puzzle. I seem to be missing one number in each set of four and, despite Dennis Martin's clue can only guess what number goes in what order. Could someone PLEASE give the proper numbers and, if possible, state where you got them? [I fear my "Myst-brain" has atrophied since 1993.]

Thank you, Sanford, thank you. I got across the bridge and , while I haven't yet had time to work at it, there are some amazing things to see and marvelous places to explore. This game is the perfect extension of the MYST saga.

I’m glad to see that I’m at the same point as everybody else without any help but with some luck since I “solved” the stone bridge puzzle by chance (green light lit while messing with the buttons for a while, the rest was easy)! There’s a lot to explore/try/do in this new big area. I didn’t have much time to explore it, but here goes what I’ve noticed so far: You can pick up the green thing that grows in some walls and use it as a temporary torch to light your way – this allows you to see the big wheel with numbers on it placed on a dark spot.
There are 2 types of light panels found in rooms and corridors – the ones with a button and the others that have a sliding panel on the left side with a lot of buttons that, once pressed, present the familiar star propagation pattern (used in the light everything kind of puzzles).
In the room with the paintings, there are at least 6 paintings you can pick and hang on the walls - the hang places I've found are: 4 close to the room entrance, 1 behind the incomplete painting and 1 on the right side of the same wall.
In the room with the instruments, the piano seems to be missing a crank (or something similar) since there’s a hotspot on the left side.

There is also another place to hang the paintings at the end of the small corridor behind the chair you can sit on. jctl, thanks for the info. Now, what to do with all of this? Chief

I'm at the same spots and, as I still do in URU, I'm enjoying the simple wandering and the visuals of the game. However, I do have a question. At the very start of the game there's a "Clown faced" rock with movable eyes. I blew it off and kept on going to the tunnels, the rock panel, etc. Were there clues I'll need later in the giant rock? Should I go back and solve it now?

Thanks for the info Chief - it seems that I've already solved the paintings puzzle: Place the 4 "childish" looking paintings on the 4 spots close to the room entrance - if done correctly a sound will play and you cannot remove them anymore.
This gives you access to a diary with lots of pages to read probably with hints...

What a nice Canada Day find...on the paintings... Once the four paintings are locked, look to the left in the pond. A rock slid open to revel a diary. Also, look closely at the paintings. There are numbers. Look closely at the centre of where the for paintings meet. Match the numbers to positions on the sliding rocks puzzle. The codes are on the pillars seen at the beginning of the game. These are light hints.

it seems that I've already solved the big wheel with numbers puzzle: Each correct 3 digits code lights the corresponding light - activating all the lights gives you access to the big locked door close by. The fact that the digits do not repeat on each circle helped a lot to figure the solution after finding by change 3 codes! If you label the top light as being 1 and move clock wise the 8 codes are: 1: 551 2: 345 3: 462 4: 286 5: 873 6: 727 7: 134 8: 618

Can one of you please tell me the sequence of colors at the organ. Thank you. I'm sure the sequence played when I entered the key(?) on the side of the organ, but it played to fast. Chief

I am wandering slowly through the tunnels. I'm drawing a map as I go so that I can later find what I'm looking for.

I am a little bit further along but have hit the limits of my logical thinking. I have all the lights green except one on the light panel. Spoiler, don't look if you aren't this far. I assume that the button in the workroom with fountain and star map will only work once all the lights are green, I assume this. The only other panel I see is at the end of a blocked corridor. Been looking for a way around the boulders but can not. I am guessing that a screen will come down for the stars to shine but I may be way off base here. I have checked every position of the wheel in the grotto. I checked every room and every hallway in each of the 24 positions to see if something somewhere that may have changed since it sounds like stone walls moving when the wheel is turned each time. Also been in the musical lookout but except for a drawing there doesn't seem to be anything there to do. Anyway, I have been stuck here for 4 days now and can't figure out where I can proceed to. If anyone has a clue for me please just a one word hint to get me thinking differently and please put it in Spoiler tags so not to spoil it for others not yet this far. Can anyone help with a one word nudge please?

Chief Chief if nothing happened when you played the keys then you may have entered the wrong color code.. The color order is on the big wall painting that you moved the panes on to create the original picture. The white areas separate the colors so there could be the same color twice. If you still need more let me know.

GreyFuss, I only have a couple of hours this morning then I can't play until next week but I'm an inch ahead of you. There are two buttons in the brothers work room that make the star chart drop down. They are located near the star chart too. Then if you ride up the tower in the music room you can see that contained in within the music note scribbles, there is one constellation. I have assumed that this is the one we're to be interested in. In particular, the opened circle as it "looks" like the symbol on the green/red light panels. I think we're to make that pattern in the light panel. As you have seen, there's one more light to be turned on and I too can't find it's location. Also, the button next to the book case activates the lever at the bottom of the stairs. When that is turned, you can see a walk way blade turn under the water.
