Hey Mark,

Where does the first zip file go?

If Popo has a hand in this level I would guess a model.

Good observation Kiki!

hey hey... Looks too easy of a model attached to involve Popo... right???

First Zip file is model... sorry for that! My mistake...

I haven't downloaded yet, just guessing it's an aprilsfool level

Welcome back, Lemarque, now I'm gonna download

annedanner · Post by **annedanner** » Wed Apr 01, 2009 6:46 pm

Well, shoot! What does the model look like? I don't see anything different with the level since I downloaded it.

LEMARQUIS · Post by **LEMARQUIS** » Wed Apr 01, 2009 6:54 pm

No worries... it will all make sense soon...

Well I guess you will have to solve it to find out!!!

LEMARQUIS · Post by **LEMARQUIS** » Wed Apr 01, 2009 8:43 pm

I'm very sorry... I worked til 4am on this level last night! I decided to flip the level vertically for logic reasons at the last minute but ended up making this level impossible to solve! I just reverted to my previous version.

The right version should have the UFO on the right side! Not the left!!! And should have a conveyor button under the top right reflector.

My mistake... I appologize...

Salin · Post by **Salin** » Wed Apr 01, 2009 9:37 pm

I just knew this was an aprilsfool level

No worries, mate, we'll just re-download

Got so far as the numeric clue on the 2nd island, but one coin is still missing - don't worry, I'll keep working on it, just want to make sure that I've got the correct version: how do I tell I do?

Amnon · Post by **Amnon** » Thu Apr 02, 2009 4:07 am

Now Loof picked up all the coins and exited through the second island.

He can also fill-in the question-mark,
but he has not found skull-island yet...

Thank you very much, LeMarquis!

Ok guys,

I just made a small revision to help with the clues...

Please redownload the level and the models (Lemarquis09.lv6 and MarquisM9.zip)

Thank you!

bob roest · Post by **bob roest** » Thu Apr 02, 2009 8:40 pm

That was interesting, I guess.

Hardcore stuff or April 1st?

LEMARQUIS · Post by **LEMARQUIS** » Thu Apr 02, 2009 9:34 pm

Hey Bob,

Congratulations on getting that far!

And no it's not April 1st!... The 1st part was just to lead you to clues... just a warm up for what's next!

I guess you haven't found "Skull Island" yet... please read the clues and may light be with you!

Let me know as the adventure unfold...

Good luck!

I guess we will see Skull Island in a up coming level.
I do recognize some of the symbols but that's about it.

LEMARQUIS · Post by **LEMARQUIS** » Thu Apr 02, 2009 11:43 pm

"I guess we will see Skull Island in a up coming level"

No I won't release an upcoming Level... If you solve the clues, you will find Skull Island...

Salin · Post by **Salin** » Sat Apr 04, 2009 8:31 am

Sorry mate, can't solve the clues, I'm clueless

I've seen all the signs and all the code-signs, but no

came to rescue.

I will try to play "the level" referred to, we'll see

Lol Gd Keep it up

Salin · Post by **Salin** » Sat Apr 04, 2009 1:01 pm

WOW

Oh my, we should start to flirt!!!! Louis!!!
Was that the Skull Island? I'm NOT disappointed, I can tell you that

LEMARQUIS · Post by **LEMARQUIS** » Sat Apr 04, 2009 1:20 pm

For the ones who found "Skull Island", I just added CustomVoices so that you should hear the "Pirates of the Carribeans soundtrack" when you start the level...

Make sure you rename so that it doesn't play for all levels...

Thank you,

LeMarquis

Le Marquis, if there would be a match who can make the hardest, most challenging levels, I think you'll be the winner.

I think I've figured out the whole level now, but I can't do the tricky move with the UFO. If I try to do it the right way. I'll send you a PM about it. With one extra bridge I would be able to finish.

I also think I know what the question-mark should be, but I've no idea what it means how to find Skull Island.

Salin · Post by **Salin** » Sat Apr 04, 2009 5:15 pm

LeMarque, are you sure you're not Mark or Patrick???

I love the new music, and the level itself (the secret one, that is) is probably not solvable, not in my league anyway

I mean, could it be more difficult???
The models are lovely /scary too!

And you look georgeous!!!!! When do you plan coming to Norway?

LEMARQUIS · Post by **LEMARQUIS** » Sat Apr 04, 2009 10:19 pm

Marinus,

Just PMed you!

you got the symbol puzzle right! still need to find Skull Island!

Hint: read the 3 messages...

You don't need an extra bridge...

Marinus · Post by **Marinus** » Sat Apr 04, 2009 11:29 pm

Thanks! I see I was missing one obvious possibility, but thanks to your PM I was able to solve this level using less bridges. This was a great puzzle. Thanks for the fun!

I still don't know what the other clues are, and I also don't hear voices of pirates, but I'll think about it.

LEMARQUIS · Post by **LEMARQUIS** » Sun Apr 05, 2009 2:58 pm

Marinus made me realize a possible solution I was trying to avoid in the level... I just updated it!

Just took a tile off under the top right trampoline

Thx Marinus

I'm beginning to think the 'Ultimate Challenge in Wonderland' is seeing how many times you edit this level. What are we up to 13 now?

BTW, in this latest version I can't see the symbols anymore. Is that by design or have I done something wrong?

LEMARQUIS · Post by **LEMARQUIS** » Sun Apr 05, 2009 4:10 pm

Sorry Bob,

This is the last update!!! The other updates were mistakes because I was rushing... This one is a small possibility I miss.

If you don't see the symbols, it means you have the wrong models!

Please redownload the models...

bob roest · Post by **bob roest** » Sun Apr 05, 2009 4:39 pm

Please redownload the models...

I did, twice! I can see them in the model file but they're not showing up on the board. Oh well, it's no matter, I know what they look like.

LEMARQUIS · Post by **LEMARQUIS** » Mon Apr 06, 2009 2:10 am

That's weird... If you could the symbols before, there's no reasons you shouldn't see them now! Couldn't be your graphics card!!!

I know it doesn't matter anyway since you solved it but maybe delete models, level, textures and redownload everything! If not.. no idea what happened! it works fine on my hand...

bob roest · Post by **bob roest** » Mon Apr 06, 2009 5:17 am

Forget the symbols. Both levels are solved.

I won't lie though, to get through 'Skull Island' I had to break it into parts to practise the timing moves. Especially the boulder/chomper/reflector/blue button sequence and the move with the reflector to blow the second box.

Even after I had it down it took a lot of restarts.

Thanks for the challenge!
