Crypt & runes
   

I can only find 5 runes, I'm missing the 'sun' one. There is also a door a level up from the where the mummy jumps you that I can't open plus my mouse highlights a "container" in a wall but nothing I do can open it. Help please?

http://arx.rpgdot.com/index.php Go here and then on the left go to maps. Need to know where you are to help. As for the runes, I don't know what one you are calling the sun one. If you want to look at the walkthrough, it has a page that lists the location of all of them. If not, find the name used in the spell book and I will be glad to post it for you.

The 'sun one' he is talking about is the rune which has a solid circle in the middle with a buch of short lines radiating out from it, in effect looking like a crudely drawn image of the sun. I can't remember where I found it down there, but I know it was not in that thing that says 'container' because I could not open it either. All the runes are in simple places, though, most inside tombs in the wall that you break with the pick.

Thanks.
I'll go through the crypt again and search everywhere. Also nice to know that the container isn't important [or at least doesn't open].
Again Thanks

You are talking about the carved stones for the crypt quest. Runes are different. There are two on each of levels four, five and six of the crypt. As Scrib said, most in tombs. The wall container is a secret exit out of the crypt. You will find an object that fits into it and it will open the wall.

Welcome to the Dot first off!

Crypt entrance is from the human city. The Arx Hosted site has a list of all maps, and if you get really stuck, an excellant walkthrough.
Go here for the city map. You will need to talk to some folks first to get into the crypts. Just go see the King and then all the other NPC's in city and you should get it.

This game doesn't have enough ingame direction to let you know what or where to go next and most of us ended up using the walkthrough. It is still a great game, and as a first effort, I would say very good.

If you have trouble, feel free to check here or post a question. Everyone is glad to help here.

crypt level 3
   

I have all ruines i've reviewed all walkthrough etc but for some reason i cannot mannage. I stand in the middle of the room facing the closed door. according to the walkthrough I'm suppose to move the rotating plate accordingly to room 2or3 so its 357 and then 468which means 3=u 5=sun 7=round and then 4=k 6=moon(with dot) 8=moon (without dot). So when you stand in the middel do I go clockwise and then randomly move the rotating plate like 357 468 or do I have to look at the symbols in fron of me on the floor and then accordinly ajus. HELPPPPP

I think you are possibly facing the wrong way when you are starting. You have the symbol sequence right. When you get up in the center of the symbols platform, face the opposite wall from the door you entered the room. Then start clockwise with the one to your far left and closest to the door you came in. That one is 3 and follow the way you said. It should spark the ghost telling you something and the next part of the puzzle.
In other words set them 3 5 7 8 6 4 in a clockwise manner.

Hope this helps.
