1. you found the red_path. Now you see where it leads, to thedoor
2. you need themap
3. use some image editing software and superimpose the map over the red path and get only the coordinates that are on the path.
4. use those coordinates to find the letters in the image from thedoor page (use paint, it will show you the cursor position
THIS WAS A TRICKY LEVEL !
Like the clue says, antonin was more than a composer, look for another antonin and his invention, a keyboard. The 2 colors tells you in what direction the transition works for the next step, all in the source (QWERTY->DVORAK or DVORAK->QWERTY).
please throw me a bone here, stuck on level 54 with the vampire painting.

@dontspoil:
Damn... I forgot to send you a PM
Look for something in the Source Code that's not like the previous source codes. You should have 4 words. That's what you google
Right now, 60's what I'm dealing with (well, when I finally have some spare time from work), and it's killing me... stupid 5x5 matrix... I simply don't get it... any combintation of arranging colors doesnt give me the slightest hint >.< Help here is again appreciated...
God how I wish I could solve a riddle on my own like before >.<
Btw, dontspoil, PM me when you reach 56, 'cause that one's toughie, or if you still can't figure out 54 ^_^

What am I missing here?
When I pull the colors from the picture, I'm not seeing any words. I know what to do when I find them, I just can't seem to see them
Once you google dvorak (2 different people) and keyboard, you'll find the answer. I was staring right at it the whole time. Looks like I'll be doing a lot of that.

After staring at these arrows for 12 hours (6 of which were spent sifting through 110 pages of hints) I still get nothing remotely close to words from the boxes. I understand the idea of moving the letters follwing the directions, I think what is confusing me is:
1) As a letter is moved does it replace or shift letter(s) adjacent to it or is each move unique relative to the original grid?
2) If arrows point off the grid do I move them off or do they wrap to the other side? (I assumed the later given the clue in the source code")
3) Is each of the three grids of arrows applied indivdually to the first grid of letters or do you need to solve arrow grids from left to right subsequently applying each new set of arrows to your prior solution?

This took me a while too. I just basically ignored the other posts b/c they confused me and I went with the old number slide method. If you remember doing these, they usually consisted of about 9 numbers with 1 empty square, and you had to shift the numbers around to get them in order. This is basically the idea. 1) move the letters in the direction of the arrows. They will replace the letter already in the other square. 2) if the arrow points up and it is the first letter in a column, then the letter will move to the last position in the column. 3) each grid is a progression. Once you move all of the letters in one grid, go to the next grid and move those letters again. If anyone has a simpler explanation, go for it.
Can anyone help with number 17, the piano? I've read the other posts but they're not helping me.

I think I'm brain dead here...
That's the part I figured ou (the DVORAK vs. QWERTY)t, I can't find the words I need to convert with the keyboard switch. What do I need to do to get the red/green words I need to convert?

Belly,
There are 2 parts to lvl 15. If you figured out the first clue, then that will take you to the next clue. Big hint: there are two pictures, both the same but with different words on them. You may have to brighten your screen. I don't even try these on a regular monitor anymore. Flat screen works best. Once you get to the 2nd pic, google dvorak and qwerty converter and go from there.
Okay, lvl 18 anyone? It's the First Hall. I've followed the directions in the previous posts but nothing so far.

Hahaha... don't follow my steps - i follow the path of a fool ^_^;; Don't mind that pic, that's not what you should Google.
1.) 54 and 55 are correlated.
2.) You see the clue? Like what Draculaspiddle said (methinks), think of it as a "synonymous" sentence. Also, think books
PM me when you reach 56 - you'll probably be at a brick wall (literally)
Can I ask for help (I know, it's getting repetitive) on lvl 60? The one with the guy on the raft with that glaring light / mysterious shadow clue

wait a minute...
have you (a) passed the "55s" and stumbled upon their 3 "56" brick walls? Or (b) are stuck on the three "55"s?
Ans for (a): You should see 3 words at each wall. Google them in the order that makes sense
Ans for (b): If you're stuck at the "55s", then I suggest you look up the author in Wikipedia ^_^
Hope this helps. Now get to 61, coz i finally got through 60!!!

once you get the 3 words from the bricks, your HPL days are over (...i think). find out more about the "people" behind those 3 words. googling is needed.

hex's earlier hints were right on i think, so i don't want to add much to them ('cause that'll either make it more confusing or just give it away), but here's an example "clue" that may illustrate what hex was saying...
source code: "a story about a couple large villages" --> answer: ataleoftwocities.htm
(NOTE TO MOD: that's not an actual answerto anything, just an analogous type of Q and A)

Hey peeps
i started this a couple days ago and now im stuck on level... 22 or 23?
the one with the Rar file, i'm veiwing the picture but i have no clue wat the answer is about...
please help
ok nvm im on the next one TOWN OF DOINA, with all the numbers and the helper thingy, wat numbers do i put in to that thing exactly....

MEGAHINT: always use a high contrast on your monitor or save the images and increase the alpha value with some image editing software i.e. ACDSEE/PHOTOSHOP, i use IrfanView because it's free, small and fast !
you will have to overlap the coordinates map over the red arrow image, take only the coordinates that are on the red line (4 of them) and use them on the image with the text that you get with the door clue to get the correct letters (coordinates are in pixels, use paint to see on what pixel u are with the mouse)
This one is simple, in the page the clue says Go to the next image.... If you look in the source the image is called oldoak-a.jpg. So the next image should be...
You get to this screen with lots of numbers, if you look closely there are 2 rows of pairs of 2 numbers on 5 columns. Now the clue in the picture tells you to let the past inspire you and the clue in the source
Go back to the cursed lands of the dead...
So you will have to get back to Storigoi graveyard (lvl 11) and look at the symbols from the top left of the picture. Those symbols will tell you how to form 1 number from the pair of 2 numbers. You will have to place the symbol between the 2 numbers and keep the digits that touch one of the symbol's extremities.
Only these numbers will give always the same letter !

See the name of the image. There is an "a", maybe you should replace by some other letter (...a...b...c...d...e...). To see the imaginary picture, check source code, you'll see there the end of a URL (jpg). You just need to type that on the URL to find the 2nd image. PM me if you need anything more information. ;)

u have to get 3 clues here in 3 folders, you found the 2nd one, get the rest and use them in the address bar to get the 3 parts of the sollution
Thanks. I kind of figured that, but....I don't know what the levels are. I've sorted through all the other levels already, but I'm too tired to do the trial and error method with the files. Hahaha. Hmmm....Room of Worst Fears? Room of Errors? Are those the previous "halls"?

No
Do a google search on one of the terms, and your answer should be right there. For the other, it's a common computer code. If you spend any amount of time online, you've probably seen it numerous times.
Level 41 (Lauber mansion with the cogs in the sky):
I'm just making sure my thinking is correct here:
My first letter is either an H or N. If it's H, I've got either U or A. If it's N, I've got I or J.
Correct? If not, someone put me on the right method to manipulate these.

you will have to rotate them like it says in the source and be carefull hoe yje rest spin, in the surce you know which cog you turn, how many times and which one to read. if i remember correctly you turn them clockwise. always remember the last position of the cogs as you should not reset them after each turn...screen spinning yet? :P

Ok. So I typed the 2 lines I saw at the bottom of the Room of Worst Fears and Room of Errors. It said "That is the First Part of the Solution" and "That is the Second Part of the Solution". What now? Am I supposed to write the name of the beast referred to in the page that leads to the second part of the solution?

What exactly did u type? The words written bellow the pictures?
Anyone on lvl 57?
Damn riddle, at first i thought it could be conscience or feelings, but neither of them worked.... any help would be apreciated
MEGAHINT: always use a high contrast on your monitor or save the images and increase the alpha value with some image editing software i.e. ACDSEE/PHOTOSHOP, i use IrfanView because it's free, small and fast !
you will have to overlap the coordinates map over the red arrow image, take only the coordinates that are on the red line (4 of them) and use them on the image with the text that you get with the door clue to get the correct letters (coordinates are in pixels, use paint to see on what pixel u are with the mouse)
This one is simple, in the page the clue says Go to the next image.... If you look in the source the image is called oldoak-a.jpg. So the next image should be...
You get to this screen with lots of numbers, if you look closely there are 2 rows of pairs of 2 numbers on 5 columns. Now the clue in the picture tells you to let the past inspire you and the clue in the source
Go back to the cursed lands of the dead...
So you will have to get back to Storigoi graveyard (lvl 11) and look at the symbols from the top left of the picture. Those symbols will tell you how to form 1 number from the pair of 2 numbers. You will have to place the symbol between the 2 numbers and keep the digits that touch one of the symbol's extremities.
Only these numbers will give always the same letter !
I can't seem to get this , the helper file i got doesn't do anyhting,
where is the letter supposed to show? could someone send/post me a screen shot? I read all the previous hints to this riddle, I have the pic needed , and still can't seem to make sense of it PLUS i don't know if i'm right becuase the Helper program isn't working...nothing shows up when i enter 3 numbers, and press the button. could someone give me the first 3 so i can test it . Thnaks very much :)

If you're not running Windows, it won't run. I had to switch to a different machine to get it to work. Any three numbers should give you a letter.

Level 24 confuses me. I know it has something to do with math and probably lots of multiplication since there are loads of Xs. What does it mean by everything starts with zero though? And what about the elements?
dontspoil
09-12-2006, 11:27 AM
actually is quite simple, look in the source and you will get a list of operatos corresponding to each type of card. then you just do all the operations but always use 0 as the first operand. another important thing is how cards are considered: A=1, J=11, Q=12, K=13. last part is a bit tricky, follow the hint under the image. good luck

Each line of operations should have a zero in front.
If I remember correctly, you don't multiply them.
I'm sure I'm waaay overthinking 62

09-13-2006, 07:23 AM
indeed Xs dont matter, always start your expressions with a zero, for example if hearts mean adding and your first card is a 3 of hearts you have to start with 0+3... and so on, so the color of the card mean the operator theat should be used in relation with the previous card, that's why the zero is necessary.be careful of operators precedence :P
pixiedust77
09-13-2006, 11:17 AM
Wait. So if it's a hearts card you start with 0+3 right? So then if the next card is, say, a 4 of clubs, you use multiplication. How, exactly? 3 multiplied to 0x4? The zeroes confuse me more. Or....just 3 x 4? If it was the latter then the zeroes shouldn't matter, right?
Me = confused

in order not to get confused use paranthesis, for example if you have 3 of hearts and 4 of clubs, hearts is + and clubs is x you have (0+3)x4... so 3x4 and so on, also if it would be reversed, so hearts id x and clubs is + the you would have 0*3+4... so 4 :P

Do diamonds just get dropped out from the equation? Or are they simply tacked on wherever they are... basically, are they another addition operand?
Also, is the elite something the Google should be able to help me with? Because I've gotten nowhere trying. I've done the operations in the order that the cards came at me. Wondering if order of ops counts? I'm sorry if I should put that in a spoiler... since I don't know one way or the other, I'm not spoiling anything, I don't think. I also don't know how to do spoilers...

You need to find three images.
The first image is already on the page (The Ancient Oak).
To find the second one, you have to check the name of the first image and replace the A by another letter (what letter could it be? 1,2,3...think in letters), then you just have to put the name of that second image on the URL (as an answer) but replace .htm by .jpg!
To find the third image, look on the source code for the name of another image, to see that image, put the name of that image on the URL (just like you did with the second image).
This is the only I can tell you...I only remember this...I already don't remember how to solve it, sorry :(

btw, Blackrose... regarding the map. The solution is so incredibly obvious that nobody thinks of it right away. How would you pull a map up on the screen in a riddle like this? The entire puzzle is pretty complicated, but this one is simply a matter of not overthinking it.

I got the door hint, and I went through the archives, but i don't understand what the clue means :lala: i'm just not getting it
OK, so you have 3 pictures, and you have connected two of them ? Then, apply what you found from the combination to the last picture: you'll be able to find four elements to get through the door
Guys,
I'm stuck at Lauber Mansion (that's in the early 40s, and a mess in the archives)
By turning the cogs (level #41) properly and finding the anser (?, level #42) I could enter the mansion.
Now I'm in front of a dusty, stained mirror. I can't make sense of those stains they seem to form aa 3-letter word, but I'm positive of 3 of them only, and I'm stuck here.
Thx for any hint.
BTW: I'm still interested in knowing how to go from #31 to #32...

You're still on 28, right?
look at the keyboard, how do you make the level number in the source correct? Do that (make 2 into 3) for the clue you see.

b2pop, not on the bridge, I was stuck on level 28... going to give another go at it with bellypock's info. Thanks for attempting though, always appreciated :) lvl 28, actually, is the marsh with the 7 letters up top.
EDIT: Oh, WOW was I thinking on the wrong path. I've got it now, thank you. *kicks self* <---- as was predicted by many earlier in this forum.
EDIT #2: lvl 29 is way over my head if it's got to do with complicated math. The cards weren't bad, it was just arithmetic, but if I've gotta start solving for variables, my head's going to implode.

This one was best explained, if you don't code, by a clue repeated in post 1214 (pg 122 on this thread).
I'm back with the riddle. I need a hint on level 12. I got the egg page but don't understand what to do next. :D

You'll need all the clues eventually. Get the ones you can first, and try to fill in the blanks (On numerous puzzles, you'll have enough to give you the answer without having to finish it out). What I did on this as I figured out clues was write them down, and make note of where they overlapped, I believe that when they're all down, it was pretty self evident what the answers were.
PM me what you've got so far, and I'll nudge you.

read the source file says something about use your knowledge of locked doors, yet under the pic it says that the door is not locked.
I think I am gonna stop for the day, try fresh in the morning and if still can't figure it out maybe I will be lucky to find a spoiler has been posted.
Just past it to next clue......this is crazy.

I'm in level 40 (open waters), and I just got the answer from some previous posts in this thread, but I don't get how they got it. I can't bear reading the story anymore. Would anyone mind giving me some 'englightenment', so to speak? Haha
And for the Lauber Mansion, how exactly do the wheels work? With a single turn of a wheel, all the others change, right? And do you have to turn clockwise then counter clockwise after every turn?

for Jam Wasteland, look back in this thread, it's explained at least a dozen time, seems that everyone has problem with it.
Cheers

Pixiedust, I'm not sure how you're asking for help on two levels... but I can help you with the enlightenment.
Once you have found the story (which you have), be VERY LITERAL about what the words in the pic tell you do to... the original pic from this level, of course, not the pic with the link to the story.
Hope that helps. :)

You've seen numbers like those before, right? ;)

Can you read the words in the picture? That and what's beneath are really all you need for this level.

Were you able to open it. If not, you need a tool like Winrar or something similar if you're on Linux. If you're past that
you have to navigate the folders to find the answer to the next couple of riddles. Find the answer and use that number (sometimes split up) to navigate through two levels of folders to get to a text file that should (if you have the right numbers) get you through.

Yeah I have but on what grid?? It was on level 6 or something right? Do I use the same plane? Or the one with the mirror? But if I use the mirror grid there aren't any words for most of the grid. Except the password.
