Hi , Just started this game and hit a bump in the road,- in the city Askian,in the tower just finished with the developing of the picture , looked at photo ok now left the tower entered the gate but i don't see Wallace the Chief Engineer any place.i think that i have the ticket and pass but what gives ? do i have to talk to him? deleterman.

Yes, you need to have that conversation with Wallace. Did you talk to the guard at the gate about everything? It has been a while, but the mayor always was just there for me when I entered the city. He is right inside the gate near the posters - do you think you might have passed him up? Hope someone comes along that can help you more! It's a great game!

Thanks, kiraalt.

If you talked completely with the guard, did the developing completely and checked all the picture, Wallace should be at the right screen from the gate.

Thank you for your insight i will try to go back and do as you said and see what goes. just went back and redid everything but no luck !!i did this before and had no problem.i know that i missed something.any thought on this?i don't think that i have a key but have the ticket and pass.

If you have ticket and pass - then you already talked to Wallace. He's the one that gives them to you.

The key is given by the guard for you to fix the photo machine.

I think your saves are mixed. You might be replaying and are missing steps.

Thanks ,i think i'm back on track ,i have the tickets,pass & the key for the refuge lab.now what is my next stop? I'm just out side the gate next to Ocine. deleterman.

Enter and check out the town.
Also enter the communication building.

got it, boy that was easy-huh? ok this is the deal-just talked Gustav and got the oil and old skin.now how do i get to the altimorail from here ? can't find the rotuna... deleterma.

You are at the rotunda.
Go to the right side of the market.
See a door. Enter that door and be at the altimonorail.

Ah Ha, should have known.ok got to the academy - climbed the stairs but can't get in door closed.any thought on this?

Have you finished the actions at the Pharmacy?
Did Armanda go to the University already? She will leave the University door open.

Yes i think so-she left and i got the hanagra of syl and went back and gave them to adam.and got the fly map.thats when i went to the market to talk to gustav.i think she said that she was going to the university.is there more ? thanks.

When you talked to Gustav, did he ask you to fix his balloon?
Also try to look at the balloon and the set up or controls in close up mode.

yes he did.thats when i got the the grease and old skin,and he said that i need to go to the university to get some helium and fix the leak on the main tube..does that help? i just know that i'm missing something. this should be easier than this. this is the second time around and i didn't have this much trouble the first time. but i'm much older now-that could be some of my problems , huh ? thanks for your help.

Are you sure the door is locked? Maybe try again and see.
I don't think it's age.

No not locked , closed!!??? I'm glad its not old age geting to me .lol.

Did you talk to everyone and do everything in the communications center? Just asking because I had the same problem once and forgot about something there.

I think so ,there was only 2 in there at that time ,was i suppose to get something there ? let me know .do i need a key to get in to the academy??

No need for a key. Just click to enter the building and be in the building.

I sent you a saved game before and after where you are now. See if that can get you to move on.

thank you very much-when i clicked on the door it said "closed"so i just don't understand.

The saved game before might get you an open door after you talk with Gustav and give the medicine to Adam.
The other one is inside the lab already. So see which one you want to use.

thanks , but now i can't fine my save game folder for this game !!! deleterman.

Is this the Viva Media one or did you download?

Open your Viva Media, Journey, Save folders.

it was there all the time , duh !!! thanks to you i'm on my way ;-)

Great!
