A way to save so to speak

Post by TyrannosaurusMatt »

Ok, there is a way to save wherever you get to in TC_Isle. All you need is something to write with (a pen/pencil), some paper or something and to use two clever little cheats.
To use cheats you must press Ctrl + SHIFT + F11
A little line should appear in the bottom left of your screen.
Type loc and press ENTER
This will display Anne's location in co-ordinates and the direction she is facing
Now whenever you get somewhere important, write down the location onto the paper so if you die you can get back there. Also if you write down locations of weapons or interesting stuff.
Next time you want to return to that location, do the Ctrl+Shift+F11 thing and type this time tele including the co-ordinates for example 130.6, 90.0, 120.6
This is what I do and it works. :mrgreen: Hope it helps.

Are any other cheats still enabled? I know dinos and woo aren't working, so I was wondering what others work.

SPOILERS





To get into the lighthouse, you have to shoot the door with a gun. That'll break the lock, and the door will open.

Out of the venture? Go to the engine room, take the wrench, look up, throw and hit the grate on the ceiling, that will fall. Pick up the wrench again, move to the back and towards the left, and swing at the wheel thing (can't remember the name :D ). That'll fall off, the water level will rise, then you make your way back to the grate, and jump in. Navigate the ventilation shaft, drop down into the cargo hold. Walk over to the machine, push the fuse back in, remove the jammed pipe, and press the button. The doors will open, and you'll be on the deck.

That's it, in a nutshell.

I tried to hack up those compys on the beach with the chainsaw. They just laughed... :cry:

I actually got one of the compy's with the chainsaw, at which point I felt extreme guilt considering it's the only dinosaur I've killed with one. Poor little bugger... barely even posed a threat. Jimmy was even kinda cute.... yeah I named him!! Shuttup! What do you know, anyway...





I'm done now :D

@ Dan: I charged the spitter with the chainsaw, it laughed too, and then ate me. :lol:

@ Matt: Check Rebel's geocities page for the unofficial walkthrough.

I never got anywhere with the chainsaw either.

About getting into the ventilation shaft on the ceiling of the engine room. You don't really have to raise the water level. You can jump up into it. I'm not sure why that works. I tried it not expecting it to work and was amazed when it did.
