Almost done with Shrine of Anephas but...

deano · 07-19-2002, 06:40 PM

Ran into problem when I try to drag the ornamental jars to reflect the light, they only stay with me a few feet then disappear. I click on Carry and pick the up, they show in my carry icon on left then disappear???

They disappear? Carried items become transparent but they don´t disappear to my knowledge. Packrat help!!

Packrat · 07-19-2002, 06:56 PM

I've never seen or heard of this one.

I do Know....Anephas doesn't give you anything, After you bring him Back to Life. ( not even a Thank you)
So my question is... can you still leave the shrine, by the back door? If you go back to the room with the broken floor, (where you cross on the broken pillar) is the lever for the exit there?... and will it let you out???

deano · 07-19-2002, 07:29 PM

must be a glitch with my game or something...because i've carried plenty items and never had this problem

Packrat · 07-19-2002, 07:31 PM

Have you tried to leave, by the back door?

Also... have you tried resarting your puter?

I haven't had them disappear before, but I have had them fall out of my hands. Usually that's when I'm walking too close to a wall.

The most effective way I've found to carry things is to back up -- they always stay behind you, and in your hands.

If that's not it, then you may have discovered something new...

Looks like you will have to wait for the search feature before we can help you Deano. It shouldn´t be too long. You´ve tried Bungleau´s tip right?

Just to be completely sure you are dragging around the correct items - decorative obelisks? There are "jars" in Anephas'Tomb but they serve no purpose. The decorative obelisks have what appears to be a crystal at the top. You probably have the correct item, but wanted to check just to be certain that wasn't the problem.

It is quite easy to drop items when you are carrying them. It is also easy to move them around once they have dropped so they can end up in placed you do not expect to see them.

How about you grab a copy of WINSPLIT, zip up your save file and split it into 5 pieces parts and email it off to me so I can take a look.(include a batch file for putting them back together)

Is there any chance that this could be a Virus problem? If something was wrong with the game, you would have had a problem before now.

IIRC...someone had a strange new problem recently and it turned out to be a Virus.

Some items in the game dont like to move out of a certain area. I've tried carrying things long distances & they've disappeared. I've found them again by retracing my steps, usually further away then when they disappeared. Try retracing your steps.
