Started this and I'm already stuck, I need help! I have NO idea what I am supposed to do.
And if you're wondering, yes, I am having fun being immature :)

Find where you are stuck, watch what I did...then don't be stuck anymore. At one point I also point to a great walkthrough for the game as well...so watch more.

You need to move the bookshelf away from the side.

[saibot216]

Yeah, Before my let's play recording I tried that and I have no idea how to do it though. It's not like other adventure games where there are use, examine, etc buttons.

[DarthHelmet86]

You didn't watch my video at all did you. Sigh, the answer is right there. Walk into the bookcase from the side and bingo it will move.

[saibot216]

I was talking about prior to my recording, so I didn't even know you had a Let's Play of it.

[DarthHelmet86]

What? My post is right there, you asked about what to do, told Paco that you had tried something with the bookcase but had no idea what to do. Gave no mention of if you had later worked it out, watched my videos and worked it out or were still stuck.

So have you in fact worked it out...now. If so was it just you working it out, was it because you watched my videos and saw how to do it or did you just learn about how to do it from my post?

DAMN YOU! Now i am thinking to map this wonderful Game. :palm:

[DarthHelmet86]

Please do Paco I would love that, the world in this game is so well done and includes so many mazes that a good map would be wonderful.

In that Case can you help me out?

- I need a Logo of the Game which i can put on Maps.
- Can you also provide me with the Font of the Game?

Which is the best?

[DarthHelmet86]

What kind of logo are you looking for, I mean I could just screenshot the games intro logo and there you go. I suck at photoshopping things so I couldn't make it have transparent at all.

As for the font, I have no damn clue where to find out what one the game uses nor where to find it after that.

Also the best to me is Magnified and marked.

Leave the editing to me so just get me a pic with which i can work.

-.- figures. then i have to capture it in dosbox and edit. *sigh* That will take some time.

got it.

Did you know?

- You can also toggle ON/OFF Magnify with "M".
- You dont need to type "bye" just right-click it away.
- You can also run fast up/down the Stairs if you hold the Button on Mouse/Keyboard.

i'm sure this will also be useful for saibot too.

[DarthHelmet86]

This is the games title screen logo,

[Paco]

since you ran away from me again so i post it here:

Best thing ever!

I said before that I tried pushing the bookcase before I recorded my set, but now after having recorded my set and you guys telling me what I had to do I now know what to do and will have to record another set, but I had recently received the treasure known as Azrael's Tear so I was slow on this.

Did you know?

Neato! Thanks!

Hi,
I will play again this nice game VOD because the first time I failed.
But now I am in Barcelona District (Lion-hearth) and I will wait till Paco the Great finished the maps of this game.
Pls, do not hurry or feel pressed. Work as You like, your work is very valuable, believe me.
Especially for RPG.

God Bless You!

yoga aka the brave:3:

[Paco]

Thanks for waiting.

Here is the Maps (http://www.vgmaps.com/Atlas/PC/index.htm#VeilOfDarkness).

Critics? Comments? etc?

[Mighty Midget]

That... is massively impressive.

Just one question.

On the village map, am I blind? The "F" stairs, I can't seem to find more than 1. Where is the other "F"?

EDIT: Found it. Thanks Darth. Now where are my glasses?

[DarthHelmet86]

There are 2 F stairs, one is just behind the bar room, and the other is just below the room with the multi pattern quilt.

[saibot216]

I hope people enjoyed my last set, but I got two roommates now and I'm pretty self conscious, so I need to figure out when they're both out of the room for whatever reason and then record another set then.

[twillight]

I soo much hate the genre where you had to guess out EXACTLY THAT ONE KEYWORD. No wonder the genre no longer exists today, it sucked.

The controlls are awkward, you never know what you may sell and what not but you HAVE TO time to time sell things, the randomly-appearing-object-hunting is tedious...

Too bad, as this game looked too interresting.

guess? Nah, most People give you Hints.

awkward? how so? You can play with Mouse and Keyboard. You dont need to sell anything at all, since there is more then enough Coins to find.

Random? Nope, every item have a set Location.

Well, for me the "clues" about the necessity of light/pipe was not at all obvious.

The locations of the appearing objects might be fix, but the popping-into-existence of objexts are random.
I mean how else would you define the appearence f the violinist in the bar, so far from the door you'd never see him when you don't know he is there (from a walkthrough)?

Also I've found it hard to pass doors or roomes crowded with furnitures, nt to mention pickable items are not obvious at all.

This kind of game gets no recomendation from me.

[DarthHelmet86]

Working out who to ask for the pipe and where to get the match is called a puzzle they aren't meant to be easy. And it took me all of two seconds to notice that someone kept on using a pipe over and over. The harder ones are later on in the game but all the clues are there in the game.

Also you couldn't find the musician cause he was too far in the room...that just means you failed to fully explore the room. And he isn't exactly hidden, he is just at the back of the room.

And what are you on about, the popping into existence of items is random? What items pop into existence? As Paco said every item has a certain spawn point and it will be there.

Having trouble moving around things, never ran into the problem the game controls rather well for an Isometric veiw point game.

This game is drool worthy in the content it gives you and is pretty damn fun game play wise. The only thing I could ask from it more is if it had more combat and if combat actually made you better at fighting since at the moment the game is much easier to play if you avoid monsters.

And exactly what was the hint that you need light at all? Appart from sheer nothingness of course.

Not to mention dosbox's window is a little bit small, so no, I did not imediatelly saw someone is piping.

Second: I did explore that room. 5 minutes before. I reject fully exploring hugh maps again and again every second!

The violonist WAS an object poping into existence at random. Who said item? Not me, that's for sure.

Face it: this game sucks in some aspect, so I don't want a part of it, nor do I suggest this to others because of that.

[Paco]

That is what Magnify is for. Its turnable in the Game Menu or just click "M" on the Keyboard to make Items bigger on Ground.

[DarthHelmet86]

Well the hint for needing a light was...well oil doesn't just burn by itself now does it. That is like asking where the hint was that you needed to find a paddle to use a rowing boat.

And if you mean the Violinist after he dies? That is a triggered event, he is alive and well in the bar for the beginning of the game, then you walk into the bar, talk to the 3 people who keep you updated about where next to go in the game and they say he left and they heard noises and screaming from his room. Not to mention the bar is not a huge map...it is tiny.

As for dosbox, full screen it. Not exactly that hard of an idea really is it. If you don't know the command for that it is alt+enter, enjoy games in fullscreen.

No, I mean the vioolinist WHEN HE STARTS LIVING. He is at the start NOT in the bar, he appears only after the chick from your starting room goes down to the first floor. But at that time you ALREADY visited the damn bar, and from the doorway you can reach ALL OTHER persona, whom you already met.

Face it: this game sucks for all I care.
