Oh yeah, I only clean once a week, but I do have to vacumn my living room carpet since the color is wine and the dog hairs really show up and I do have students coming in.
Bets

Yes, I am in Oneiros. I'm having a bit of a tuff time with it too. Thank goodness for the code you gave me MDAMLADY. Those squidmen keep popping up everywhere. I'll be waiting for you Bets, It will be nice to see someone else running away from those *%#* squidguys also!!
JohnBoy have you decided to play again yet?

Lorlor

No I am playing FarCry. And I am having a heck of a time with it. Its a tough game. I just stole a humvee and ran 2 guys over so that I can steal a boat to escape to the next level. But some one is hiding out and throwing grenades at the vehicle and blowing me to smitherines. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="confused.gif" /> I cant find where the grenade is coming from. <img border="0" alt="" title="" src="graemlins/cry.gif" />

The Squid looking creatures are called Skarrows.

You do have a W/T, don't you?

The Green stone (Gel'ziabar stone) will knock them off the edge.

The revolver will get them, but it takes so much ammo.

I'm still fighting howlers. Had a couple crashes to the desktop.
LorLor. Do you have winzip? I tried putting the patch in and it uses winzip which I don't have and costs $29 to download. Is there any other way of unzipping this file?
Bets

Bets there is a free(winzip) evaluation you can use to download the file.

At the winzip site? May have to get off, thunderstorm moving in.
Bets

Now it is my turn to ask for help. I can't get down the stairs fast enough. My health is only 57, probably not enough. Should I jump up my health with the cheat like you told LorLor to do?
How do you activate the Ether traps?
Bets

Bets where are you in the game? What steps. There were many.

Oops, sorry. In the chapel, upstairs.
Bets

You got the key? You opened the closet? To get rid of the Phantom Monks you need to use the pistol in combination with the Ectoplasm. Jump down the stairs and run out of the chapel as fast as you can into the hallway.

Run fast, Run very fast. I got killed so many times in that chapel & the rooms connected to it.
For the ether traps, have you assigned them a key yet? Get into controls. I assigned them to L, keyed them up (so they showed in the lower left corner) and placed them as close to the ghost as possible. Then hit Enter. Luckily the same ones can be used over & over again 'cause I had to keep picking it up and repositioning it. The darn thing just would not stay still.

Lorlor

My problem is I loose track of where I am when I get attacked. Can I boost up my health points. I have only 10 save slots. Is that it?
Bets

You don't loose any save slots when you boost up the health.

You can write over any of the previous slots. I did several times.

When you get past a particular section just write over it. (ie. where you are in the game right now - Chapel - can go in you first slot; over writing whatever is there until you get to the next section.)

I didn't try to fight the ghost priests; I just ran like the wind. (Coward at heart)

I avoided a battle if I could. Saved on ammo and health until I got the cheat codes down pat.

Sometimes the battles came so quickly, I couldn't type fast enough to get the code in before I died.

Just wait till ya'll get in the catacombs!

Catacombs? Ohhh, scary! Are they anything like the cellars in the mansion? I wandered down there and sort of stumbled around. I picked up some malatov coaktails but couldn't figure how to lite them.
I've given up on getting the scroll in the cemetary. What is it for anyway? Is there anyway to go back and get it later without going back to an old save? The skeletons just kept hammering me and I jumped into the boat! I couldn't figure how to jump up to the scroll. The w/t MDAMLADY found for me gave directions but I wasn't able to get it right. It said to find the tombstone that looked like a step then jump to another from there? Jump Where? Up didn't work and the others seem too far away. Aaahhhhh!

Lorlor

There are no dead-ends (that I found).

You can go most any where you want at any time if you've been there before. (like in the Manor)

As you progress along in the game, you are able to access more places.

You need to get the scrolls, they have the spells you need in the game.

I failed to see the one in the chapel and had to go back and get it.

Lorlor,

Re-do the Old Cemetary. I spent quite a bit of time here trying to get to the top of the wall to get the scrolls; the directions aren't too clear.

Keep trying!

Today's a new day. Maybe I can open the closet in the chapel, grab everything I need and get the heck out of there before I get killed again(for the umpteenth dozen times). Maybe if I stay out of Tigs mead, I might do it.
Bets

Made it to Oneiro. Tried to kill that creature so will go look at the WT.
Bets

The Skarrows at the bottom of the stairs that keep sucking you into the ground?

Use the Green stone to make them back away and push them off the edge and run!

Or you can use the revolver on them, but they regenerate.

P.S. How do you like the "New Me"?

I do like the new you. Is it an actual pic of you?

I wish!

No it's a rendition of Anne Bonney, the first female pirate.

According to her bio, she was Irish (like me) and her first name is my middle name. So it just seemed fitting.

Female, Irish, and a Pirate

P.S. I bet she didn't look that good in real life either!

Wow!! Gonna have to get used to that.
