You just gave it away entirely. I slaved for a good amount of time before I found it! I used logic! Kids these days, and their 'hints' Back when I was a young boy in nineteen-dickety-three, I had to logic my way to school fifteen miles in freezing rain each day, uphill both ways. And usually I didn't have anything on except a few layers of cellophane. After one week Socrates was on the ground crying becuase he just couldn't do it!

Logic? You was lucky. We didn't even had modus ponens; we had to get the whole way there with modus tollens, and on holidays they gave us an axiom.

I completed Dragon Ball Z on the Gameboy, which is a sort of complicated card game, which was also in complete Japanese. Sigh... those were the days...deduction from 25% trial and error and 75% logic. Also the way I found it quickly...

Why waste logic on that old screenshot? If you look carefully (and logically) enough, you might find something more exciting.

Here's my idea:


Zoom out to about 25%, if you look at it hard, you might notice that it seems like some of the tiles seem to be higher than the others. It might remind you of something you see in the Dreamplane.

Just to be clear, when I said you should look carefully, I wasn't talking about the screenshot you've already seen.

I don't think he meant a "new" one. I think he meant the mockup (read: self-made) that's been here on the forum for some time (and you've probably seen it before as well, hopefully).

Going back into goodie tags.

[goodies]List of screenshots I know about:

1. 75% one.
2. Guess the Screenshot thread one.
3. Scintillating Mass of Colors (Maybe?)
4. The bar riddle one. [/goodies]

Oh, you don't need much logic and or careful looking to find that one. Plus, it's probably not that exciting anymore either.

DUH! I'm an idiot! The sister gate picture! I like it alot, it means that Erik has created new styles! :)

[goodies] I haven't figured much out. My best guess is a palette swapper for citizen characters? You can have one of each color or something like that? [/goodies]

Oh. Oh my.

It's the Sanctum style! Clearly, mrimer here wasn't lying about custom style support.

Oh yeah, and the graphics look really awesome too. Hmm, so Beethro isn't just going to the city here.

It's not, but it's similar. This is an official 3.0 style.

No need for tags for discussion that's not specific to the bar riddle.

Yeah, the force arrows and the walls look really Sanctum-y, but those pit edges are new. And how about the smoke? Really contributes to the overall mood in that picture. ;)

I'm thinking smoke/fog is going to be some sort of room option.

Yeah, I think everyone's talking about the 75 picture. I might be completely wrong though.

I would be highly surprised if it weren't. At least two screenshots confirm the presence of some sort of shading that can hover over the room, regardless of the floor texture or anything else there. What's more, each said picture shows it in a different color.

You can identify arrows, fog, and pits in the 75% picture? Your eyes must be better than mine. Or maybe worse.

Oops :blush, I guess everyone can see that I haven't looked at the 75 picture in much too long...

I'm curious now though, what picture is being talked about?

The *new* one that eytanz was talking about.

It's located around near where the others were.

Found it. Clever trickers.

Ironically, I found it by accident looking for it somewhere else. Funny how rogue a can get you places.

EDIT: I just noticed how I was acting like everything made sense to me.

So, is there any hints to be found about where this screenshot is, like the 75% picture? Or is it just "hidden?"
