Quote from HMW on July 31, 2012, 2:42 pmThose hint buttons are a great idea indeed.
I'm re-playing "The 7th Guest" now, which is entirely based on mind bending puzzles, but has a similar ant-frustration feature, in the form of a hint book that helps you out if you're stuck. A real Godsend for some puzzles. ([spoiler]Shy gypsy, slyly, spryly...[/spoiler])
An interesting feature of that hint book, is that the first time you use it, it gives a very vague hint. The second time, a more specific one and the third time it shows the solution. Perhaps you can do something like that in your map? If players press any given hint button multiple times, they get progressively more helpful hints. (And heavier taunting of course.
)

Quote from DaMaGepy on July 31, 2012, 8:04 pmLol I already planned something similar. Not from the same button, becazuse if it disappears fast, ppl maywant to read it again. But a double ?? next to the normal one, that shows more specific hints. or maybe a timer, if you press it twice fast (while the text is still there) you get a better hint. Its like double-clicking
And yes, more penalty

As for graphics this is best outdoor part I`ve seen so far. Puzzles are on easy side but fit very well with total package. The only thing is that I would get rid of hints. Many thanks for mapping. 5/5 from me and waiting for more

Quote from DaMaGepy on August 4, 2012, 3:31 pmhints, hints... they dont ruin anything if you dont press them, and if you stuck or dont know what to do, then its faster than to check a walkthru video or completely quit the map or noclip. Or ppl feel urge to press them?

Quote from RectorRocks on August 5, 2012, 10:46 amI wanted to make a blindrun video of this map for you but unfortunately, I didn't as I didn't complete the map. I'm stuck at the buttons underneath the wooden steps as I'm missing one cube. I've found 5 cubes outdoors and 1 cube taken from the test chamber. Where can I find this remaining cube?

The entrance to the second testcave? Nope. Couldn't find it. Where is it? xP
