Sounds good Bets. I have DD. Have never played it. So count me in.

MDAMLADY, Very cool. I love the pirate connection. We can shiver their timbers together matey!!! Greg & I dress up for Halloween as pirates and even go to a local bands concerts in costume! They sing old sea chanties and their own original pirate songs. They always come over and talk to us between sets to tell us how much they appreciate us getting the audience into the mood. Anyway, I do love your new avatar. Is this something of your own? Where did you find it?
I haven't been able to play anything for the last 2 days, life keeps intruding. overtime and sleep.
The last I played I was trying to jump from the barn into the old farmhouse. I'm getting tired of failing and may have to use a code.

Lorlor

Just Googled in "Women in History" and came up with a fantastic picture of 3 pirates:

Anne Bonney, Mary Reade, and Calico Jack (fell in love); First women pirates and their Captain.

I love pirates. But swabbing the deck and sea sickness might have got the best of this pirate.

MDAMLADY, Just don't "plead your belly" next time you're up for jury duty!!!

Lorlor

"Shore" won't, just Yo! Ho! Ho! and a bottle of Rum!

How ya doing on Undying?

She's probably doing better then I am. Those skarrows are a pain in the you know what.
I'm still in the manor trying to find the hall with the suit of armor. I ended up in the upper landing. Did I screw up and end up in the wrong place or can I find that hallway from where I am at?
Bets

Did the same thing Flutist.

Got lost so many times that I think I could do a map from memory (or maybe not).

Just backtrack from where you are to the last known position. I know I got all turned around when the fight scenes took place.

The Badguys get you in a whirl and you lose track of direction.

Got rid of Aaron and grabbed the amplifter. Am now trying to fight the skarrows. Got to stop for the evening. Concert tonight and need to get something to eat, get changed and be at school by 6. Tomorrow's another day.
Bets

Made it to the garden. Touched base with the Mausoleum but went the wrong way so going to redo that.
Concert tonight - last one.
A big day tomorrow. Church in the morning then going out to lunch with friends, then Susan coming over and we are going to see my Mom at the nursing home. Then we are trying a new Chinese restaurant that has opened up not too far from us. Soooo no time for games. But it is going to be a nice day.
Hey LorLor and MDAMLADY - Happy Mothers Day to you. Have a great day.
Hugs to you both.
Bets

Thanks Flutist!! I hope both you and MDAMLADY enjoy special days today also!
I'm just after the Mausoleum myself but will have to return for a scroll I've had trouble getting to. This next island (?) is full of Howlers so watch your back. I've loaded a code for getting from the barn into the farmhouse. I just kept falling. Have fun.

Lorlor

Happy Mother's Day to you both!!!! :kiss:



Flutist, keep plugging at it, Kiddo!!

I can see I'm not the only one who hasn't had time to play lately. Never fear, I will be taking up my quest again shortly!!

Lorlor

Trying to find my way out of the Mausoleum. Getting close. Gotta give finals today, turn in grades the yippppeeeee, back to games.
Bets

Flutist
You're looking for a coffin door to shoot then to climb into; then a ladder to climb up.

I have exactly 1 day off this week (I know oh poor baby) & I'm going to try to get a few hours in playing Undying. Looks like Flutist is getting ready to pass me by. Enjoy Girl, you work too much!!

Lorlor

Now I am trying to get the scrolls in the cemetary. Where are you now LorLor?
Bets

I'm not having any luck jumping up to the top of the wall in the cemetary to get the scrolls. Can someone tell me which way to jump?
Bets

Flutist, I couldn't get up there either. The walkthough I have says to find the tombstone shaped like a step (did that) and from there jump to the next stone. Well, straight ahead was way too high, and the ones on the right seemed too far away. Plus the skeletons just kept hammering me. (I hadn't figured out Invoke yet) I gave up on that and went onto the island. Now I have flight and I thought I would go back but haven't been able to yet. I sure somewhere I'll be able to go there again or maybe even be required to go there, but I haven't found it yet.
I was on Standing Stone Island when a mysterious floating veiled woman appeared. She didn't do anything so I just looked her over and then left. Should I have elimated her? I've run into this several times in Undying. Lately most of the Howlers just come up to me and squat down doing nothing. I don't kill them since they are not aggressive. Some follow me around for a short time. (I've started talking to them Bwaa Waaaaa) Now more & more of the Tsanti (?) are doing this also. Is this a minor game glitch? I'm just wondering.
Also, I accidently pressed Caps Lock when I had the scythe activated. It moves more powerfully now and I have noticed number drain on my magic. I haven't tried this on any other weapon yet but will soon.
Absolutely LOVED the snow in Past Monastery!! I stayed there a long time just looking up & down & foward. This is how I always think snow should be!!! Loved it, Loved it, Loved it!!! I didn't not want to delete the saves for that part of the game but I knew I would need the space. I will play this game again just for the snow!!
I also climbed a vine covered wall, jumped a few roofs, fell down a too short ladder and ended up out side the main complex. (Back at the house) I wandered around the outside for quite awhile enjoying the cliffs and scenery. Then when I tried to get back in; found a short dark wall, jumped up and died! I don't know what I hit but bam! I'm having a lot of fun with this game. Thank you all so much for getting me to play it!!

Lorlor

You are in an area I have not been in yet. I am still in the cemetary. I found another walkthrough that said to find the tombstone leaning against the wall(I'm assuming it is the one close to the entrance of that little area. If you found the bullets & health pack at the left end, this is at the right end. Jump onto it, turn around, jump to the mid-size gravestone with the small cross. Turn slightly right, jump to the taller stone with a large cross. Turn about 60 degrees right and jump to the mid size marker. Then jump onto one of the arms of the large cross. Make a jump to the wall, turn left and run along the wall to pick up first Arcane Whorl.
I hope I got that right. I have tried it but so far no luck. Will try tomorrow.
Good night all.
Bets

If you have your mana set over 100 then the creatures won't seem to bug you.

It's not a glitch; it's part of the game.

On the cemetary to get the scroll, I didn't use the tombstone; I used the pillars that had fallen and flew up to get to the scroll. Like you, I found the distances to daunting.

If you have gotten all the cheat codes then flight should have been one of them. Looks like a "spread eagle" at the bottom center of the screen.

Cheat Code for all weapons and spells:
Press tab button and type ............addall
Cheat Code for flight:
Press tab button and type ............flight

Flutist
You did the cemetary scroll perfectly (I cheated!)

I printed out the cheat codes first thing. Will try your approach. Are you talking about the scroll that was in the coffin before you went outside?
Bets

It worked. I am at the Monastery
Bets

We're cooking now Flutist!
I made it into Oneiro again and am so lost. Time to get into that W/T again. Seriously, are there people out there that can do this type of in & out, up & down and round & round without a W/T??? I'm getting dizzy. The sky is such a pretty shade of pink though.

Lorlor

I think I have to find something light & funny to play after this (similar to MI) <img border="0" alt="" title="" src="graemlins/woozy.gif" />

Lorlor

Alice and Undying back to back gets a little dark and gloomy.

I keep looking for Syberia 2 at retail, but can't find them yet.
