Heh. I don't see why you people use fancy programs to map your temples. I did mine by hand.

Here Here! Score one for the old style of gamer! . . or somthing like that.
Mapping by hand is a dying art in the world of gamers, keep it going by contributing your time and paper today. All it takes is a few hours and a sense of adventure.

(well really it took me 6 hours to map mine, but I started midway through and I was... well, see, it all started with a bottle of Popov)

You find a strange, broken piece of stone on the floor.
It seems to be dirty; what could it be for?

The item disintegrates on Donny's workbench, leaving a pile of useless sludge!

You have received:

Return to the temple, you should be able to get another Dirty Stone Fragment which you can try fix again :)

Anyways, I've got my three pieces, I've caught up. I'm heading to bed now. Good night everyone, good luck!

Well, as we're back on to map-making styles again, I'll share mine. I used a legal pad and simply wrote down the door combos rather than try to draw or color. I did end up going back with markers and putting colored dots to make it a little easier to find the new doors, my riddle doors i'd marked with a star as i found them.

Okay, for this explanation, a "room" is a set of five doors, one screen. A "row" is a set of rooms connected by arrows. I gave each row a number, and each room a letter. So my first room in the first row would be 1a, and so forthI entered my temple, hit the left arrow until i reached one end, and started there.

Here's an example:

1a.
green pent. lat
open--1e
open--14b
red pent. ra
open--9a
1b.
open--9e
red oval kha
red rect. ra
green pent. set
blue pent kha

and so forth (i didn't actually use the symbol names to start, but you don't want to see my nicknames for them and/or my badly drawn symbols)

Once I got the first row down on paper, I went back to 1a and started taking empty doorways one at a time. If the room I entered wasn't one I'd visited yet (usually just had to scan for the first door in each group I'd marked down) then I started another row, went to the far left of it, called it "a", etc.

I kept track of which room I came in, so I could try to get back to where I started (1a in this case) sometimes it worked, sometimes I ended deeper into the tomb. After a while I had enough mapped that I could start using certain passages to get back to whatever row i needed to check doorways in.

And I finally got my first piece!!! Yay!!!

I may be a cold-blooded jelly donut, but my timing is impeccable.

Heehee, I did my map with paper and pen (much paper and pen) and I did it with drawing arrows! It's been dead quick for me to find each door though the map is completely illegible to anyone but me, heh :lol:

Same here. I showed my map to one of my friends and she couldn't understand how I knew where anything was. :P

(Of course, I know how to read it.)
