Random obscure stuff
ok. I was reading through some old Bungie webpages today and came across some Myth related info that I've never heard before. They could of course just be red herrings of the sort Bungie likes to employ to drive people crazy.
Can anyone confirm any of these?
1) Has anyone ever got a secret message to display by pressing shift-control-right click in the upper right corner of the Myth II screen? (If so, what does it say? Screenprint anyone?)
2) Allegedly in the Windows version of Fear if you create a monster named 'Lauren' you get to play a 'little puzzle game that's a version of Sherlock'. Anyone ever see this?
3) Supposedly in the TotalCodex autoplay app if you click the center 'O' you get a 'secret message'.
4) Anyone ever notice any underwater rocks that spell things on Myth II maps?

Yeah I just looked through all the standard Myth2 maps (single player and multiplayer maps). But only the Drowned Kingdom/Drowned Empire maps had rocks underwater forming some sort of pattern or message.
And I tried the Shift-Ctrl-Right-Click thing, but it didn't do anything. I even tried it under 1.3 and still nothing. I don't have the Total Codex, so I can't try that one out.

Pyro, thanks for the screenshots! I am boggled that in 10 years of playing this game, I've never even HEARD of this PC-Fear Easter Egg. Thanks for confirming.
As for which maps or how many have messages or things written with rocks underwater? I don't know... the text mentioned maps (plural) but there were no specifics.
ps. baak - re: the 3 key click thing - the text said this was really hard (impossible?) to do nowadays (which would have been a few years ago) but that in 98 it was apparently easier. fwiw, I THINK that easter egg is just a message that gives instructions on how to get to the Lauren/Sherlock game.

Well, I checked all maps using Loathing. Have the projectile placement tool and then checked it with he scenery placement tool, that way the water is removed and you can see if anything is down there.vinylrake wrote:As for which maps or how many have messages or things written with rocks underwater?

Btw, that hidden game is interesting. Lots of instructions to read first, I got stuck in the first game and had to use hints a few times to get through it. Once I got the hang of it, I didn't need the hints. The shortest it has taken me to beat one of them is about 15 minutes.
