George, this is a game forum for goodness sake. If what you're doing isn't a personal soapbox, you don't want me to use the terms that truly define it. Stop it!!! Enough already!!!! I am a Christian, but I believe everyone must decide for themselves what is true and real. No one has the right to impost their beliefs on others, and especially I have no right to expect them to believe as I do, nor do you.

George - let it go. This is not the right place. Most pro-lifers are the first to stand in line to demand an execution of a criminal - talk about double standards. Neither you, nor the government has the right to determine what a woman can or can't do with her own body. I again state that I am anti-abortion plus I don't believe it should be used as a convenience, but I remain pro-choice. This is a decision only a woman can make based on her own beliefs. I do not believe it is right for a 13-year old who was raped by her stepfather to be forced to bear his child. Nor do I believe that any conception that occurred due to rape should not be allowed to be terminated (this is the choice of the woman) A woman who could die if she continues with a pregnancy, must be allowed to choose to terminate it (again - her choice, and only her choice). Please let it go. The other thread you initiated on this subject has already been locked. - Enough already!!!!

George, as a male, you have no right to determine what a woman can or can't do with her own body. I am personally anti-abortion, but I will forever be pro-choice. This is a decision a woman needs to make on her own, without interference from anyone (especially government). Teach your daughters your beliefs - that is your right and your duty as a parent, but that isn't the role of government and you have no right to impose your religious beliefs on others. Freedom of religion also means freedom FROM religion.

And BTW - the evil one is Satan, not Satin - you obviously have a lot to learn!

the answer is simple - democrats belive in people and their right to be who and what they are (as God made them). Republicans believe the more money you have the better and only the rich deserve rights. So, it's simple - vote Democrat, especially if you are a woman.

How old is your computer? Many of the games require more video RAM than older systems have, although I was able to download and play this game with a 5-year old system that only had 64 mb of video RAM. Once I got my new computer, I stopped having problems like this.

Seems like ActiveMark may be more trouble than GH originally anticipated.

Nice to see you got it fixed......for now

I know, technology will eventually catch up with me and I'll be in the same boat again - half the games won't run. But for now, I'm enjoying playing a lot of games my old system couldn't handle. I have run into one that wouldn't run properly - so the world is better, but not perfect

Part 2:
Open the file the image is in, choose the image (single left click), right click, then chose "set as desktop background" from the menu. You now have the picture you wanted as your desktop background. (instructions are for Windows, but I'm sure Macs have something similar.)
Copyright laws probably do apply, but as long as you are using it only for personal use at home, I doubt you could get into any trouble. Just make sure it doesn't appear anywhere else (like Face Book, MySpace, any commercial site or presentation, etc.)

Add the battery pack to the lamp in your inventory and then click on the lamp - it will glow purple. Open the note. It has the cave code on it. Move your curser over the back wall to see the images (you can't see them until the lamp is turned on). Match the pictures on the cave wall to the ones in the note. Click on the pictures in the same order they appear on the note. Make sure the image lights up and changes color (on my computer they went from dull purple to bright magenta). Don't move to the next image if the one you clicked on doesn't light up. Click it again if it doesn't light up the first time you click. Once you have them all lit up in the right order the gate will open.

Did you print the missing page and put all of the article in the tube?

Have you collected all the other objects? The cat will move from the desk to the curtains after you've collected everything else, including printing the missing page. After the cat moves, you will be able to give it the mouse, but you have to be sure you've opened the door of the cat carrier first.

This is great news. I'm one of the members who asked you to think about doing this and I think it's a great benefit.

I don't know why, but GH has always charged for premium/special edition games. Several posts have been made asking them to let us use more than one Fun Ticket to get them, but they haven't done it. They have at least lowered the price to Fun Ticket members (down to $13.99 from $19.99), which is something fairly new. The last Mortimer game I bought I paid the full price.

Use the hairpin AND the paper clip. They must be used in the correct order (don't remember which one goes first - there are 2 scenes that needs these, but they require them in a different order - it won't take it if you put the wrong one in first). If it won't take the hairpin, put in the paper clip first - then the hairpin, or do the opposite if needed. Once you have both the paper clip and the hairpin in the lock, click on them (I think 3 clicks) until the door opens.

Let me start by saying I'm a big Mortimer fand and I enjoyed the game very much, but I have to be honest and say I was somewhat disappointed. It didn't seem to be as intense as the previous games, which took me several sessions to solve. I finished this one in only about 3 hours.

I missed the flags at first too. And I misinterpreted the "domestic" part - as an American, I was trying to put it with the American parts. Dumb me - the scene is in France, so the "domestic" part is French, not American. I'm admitting this in case someone else makes the same mistake and gets stuck.

1st row: American parts
2nd row: French parts
3rd row: Japanese parts
4th row: German parts

I suggest you contact GH technical support and see if they can help you.

I played the game, but honestly don't remember how I did that. I'd suggest going to www.gamezebo.com, Search on "Empress of the Deep" and open their walk-thru. They have walkthroughs for almost all the games if you're ever stuck.

kodiak wrote: So it says "IN ADDITION" FunPass Members can play unlimited without having to buy the game, at this time? And how do we go about doing that, getting around the 60 minute limit?

Again, how do we get around the trial minutes limit?

You have to click on the "FunPass" tab when the game boots up and then log-in. Please make sure you aren't confusing the "Fun Ticket" with the "Fun Pass". The "Fun Ticket" gives you the 2 "free" games each month and is eqivalent to what we got from RA. The "Fun Pass" is a GH thing and is different. I'm also one of the former RA customers who isn't as happy with GameHouse as I was with RA and the "Fun Ticket"/"Fun Pass" issue confused me at first. I agree that it's not right that "Premium" editions aren't available with a "Fun Ticket" like the other games are.

The glasses will charge automatically once you get past a certain point. It's been a while since I played that scene, so I don't remember exactly when it happens.

I have had numerous problems with games just closing themselves and disappearing quickly with no warning. Sometimes without saving my progress. GameHouse support suggested that I had another program interfering with the games. I suspect that's true - probably Norton Antivirus or Utilities. The games need to be designed so they aren't seen as intruders. I'd really like to see answers to the help questions I email or post in the forums. When I emailed GameHouse for help I was told the employees don'thave that kind of knowledge about the games so they couldn't help me. Can't you contact the designer or someone who would be able to help? Support needs to be able to help, even with simple things like being stuck and unable to progress in a game. Anyone who reads this and can answer a question about Magic Encyclopedia #1 please go to that forum to help me. So far I have zero responses to my question.

I think I have all the items at the Scythian burial mound except the last piece of broken tile. In the tomb, there is a coffin. When I hover beside the "body" in the coffin there is the outline of an archer's bow and the message "A warrior needs a bow". The only object I have left is a carpet. I've looked at on-line walkthroughs and cheats and all say that the carpet is to be put on the coffin. I can't put the carpet on the coffin; it won't take it. It appears to want a bow not a blanket. What am I doing wrong?

Is anyone else having problems with a sluggish, barely responsive cursor during the mini-games? Any idea why this is happening. BTW-I have a wireless logitech mouse, if that makes any difference.
