Lost Desert Plot Discussion #96 (Summary in First Post)

[paola]

There must be an order dependence in the reading of scrolls.

I have read all 36 scrolls ... and can't even see the lights.

there is a crack in the ceiling. Is there something that needs to be done to make the light shine through it?

If someone *just* placed the crystal now ... it isn't light out ... and they still saw the lights.

Something needs to be done to smash the crack open, I think.

That's what I was thinking. I tried clicking around the ceiling and where the light shines through, but I get nothing.

I've been able to keep up with everything so far. But, how do I know what floor I am on in the Repository? Right now I see a downstairs exit at r13 c19 and an upstairs entrance at r7 c19.

Edit: Never mind. I'm reading LDPD #91 and know where I am. Sorry for the extraneous post.

One problem with the Time Theory. The Temple is not the Scroll Repository. Also, my temple is blue skies and I get no effect.

Go to the lower right hand corner and it will have you go down some stairs. Keep going down and eventually you'll see it.

Except they're both in the desert. Sun up in one may indicate that the light is also shining in the other.

I guess we'll see.

Someone posted they saw lights at 5:30pm NST. The sun was not up at that point.

If you check out the source code of each card catalog (so the page where you see the actual names of books) you can see that there are width="" and height="" tags.
Save the source code, then replace these with width="20" and height="20" (find and replace in notepad will do this for you)
Now you can see the symbols corresponding to each book!

Of course maybe you need to do something in-game to get them to appear naturally.

Points up to rooms lists and thinks "supRNurs you ROCK!"

Directions (with some screenies)

Get the crystal
1- The chef is at Level 2 20, 5
2- Talk to him
3- Visit Gift shop and get Vial
4- Equip Vial to pet
5- Battle Spirit of the RuinsYou don't need to BEAT him, just swipe him with the bottle and withdraw)
6- Revisit Gift shop and get T-shirt
7 -Visit chef and get Useless Crystal


Use the crystal

1- To Enter the secret passage, go to The fifth Floor 7,19.
2- Follow the corridors to the BASEMENT level.
3- You will see a miniature city.
4- IF you have light. Click on the very top pinnacle of the largest dome.
5 - You get the 'Indiana' effect.


NOT EVERYBODY HAS LIGHT

Theory 1 (Worked for me; NOT working for everyone)

FIRST- Read scroll with the door COLOR and SYMBOL of your faerie room. NOT the faerie symbol.
Then- Your room will have light.
And- You get the 'Indiana' effect.

Theory 2

It's time based on your symbol or random.
Go to the city (without placing your crystal) and REFRESH.

Just in the model room, thinking maybe we have to tap the right brick like in Harry Potter,

I tried placing the crystal then clicking on the tops of the towers to see if there was a lever or something but no luck.
