The Dink Network

I have lost countless hours going back to the Spirit with Skard and forth. The Spirit tells me to go along the blood river with Skard and that she'd help me find a boat. I've been roaming the destroyed world unendlessly talking to Skard whose only reply is invariably the same: "Let's go talk to the Water Spirit". If she gives me that reply once more, I swear I'll go nuts! I don't want to give up just yet, I've been a fan of Dink for years and I just love Pilgrim's Quest and all of SimonK's dmods. Can you just give me a hint or something? I'm already at level 23 and I think my Dink will die an old man before he can get under the Machine Mountain.;(

Please help??? Thank you!

Ok, no word yet. Can anyone tell me if this is a glitch, a bug or something?

What happened is that Skard is following me around... we've been back to the Spirit countless times, have followed the blood river, have gone to the "hole" in the Mountain and when I speak to Skard, she keeps telling me to see the Spirit (Water I guess), who told us that Skard could help me get a boat to go under the Machine Mountain.

So you see, I'm stuck and would very much like to finish this otherwise great D-Mod...

Thank you!

I played this one a few months back, but from what I remember you need to go back to where you originally pushed skard to the river and got the plant to heal her. the water spirit will appear on the same screen.. i think you need to be on the lower right portion of the screen. but it is the same screen that you originally see the spirit, that much i do know. good luck!

Ha, at long last: someone cares! Thanks, Dragon!

But you see, I'm not sure about this, although I'll try it once more.

First, it was the Scroll (I got from the Wizard from throwing the poison in the well) that allowed me to push Skard. We're supposed to go to the bottom of the sea for a Rose petal or something for the "stone cure" to work.

When we went back to the Water spirit, he told me that the Goblin woman would help me find a boat and to follow the blood river.

Then we went to the guards, disguised as the Frog... then to the hole in the Mountain, I spoke to Skard and she wants to go back to the Spirit, which I did, and he appeared. Same thing happened, back and forth, back and forth.

Argghhh...

But I'll try once more as you describe it... thanks for your time!

Not working, Dragon.

While the Spirit's talking to us, she still wants me to go see the Water spirit.
I swear I want to kill her!

Maybe I should write the author. Or maybe I should have posted this in the PQ - female goblin thread. Whatever. I'm utterly dejected...

Thanks for trying to help me tho.

hmmmmm... i think i still have my savegames... if so, i'll go back and play through this part again and let you know exactly what i do...

Consider yourself lucky! I ended up with Skard walking around bare naked! Eww.. Goblin women just are not my type, I perfer humans. LOL!

I guess I can't expect any help here... anyone got an idea where I can get help? I've even emailed the author, a few days ago, while he was "lurking" but not a word from him either...

igh:

Send me your saved game and I'll see what's up

I did, and thanks for your reply, Simon, that was very nice of you.

I did as you suggested:

Point A is not working (no one appears at former Skard's position);

Point B: I'm lost! Can't find it... I'll do my best though... for now, I'm just running around, bumping into everything that moves or not. I'm trying to find the "Armed camp" from where I thought I'd be able to retrace my steps to the Water spirit.

Also, I have to admit I had my Spirits wrong: I confused the Earth spirit with the Water, no wonder I was clueless!

okay, i just finished replaying this part... after dealing with the armed camp and going back to skard to tell her you need the plant from the bottom of the sea, you push her to the left. The screen that you eventually wind up on has a save machine and the water spirit appears. she gives you and skard the plant and you automatically eat it's petals. from here, you have to hijack a frog machine and go visit Cthunk and watch him get captured. after this you are able to go near machine mountain but find you are not able to get in. While you are in the frog you can go to the left hand part of machine mountain and find the opening where the river goes into the mountain and when you approach the barbed wire it says that you cant get in the way you are... which means you need a boat... after leaving this area and goin back to around where you first found skard, and getting out of the frog suit... you can talk to skard and she mentions that you need to go back to the water spirit because she may be able to help you... so from here you need to go back to the screen that you first encountered the waterspirit who gave you the plant to eat. this screen has a save machine with a small body of water to the left and a larger one to the right. If you talk to skard on this screen she will say that you need to go back to the spot where the water spirit first appeared... this means on the same screen go on the bottom of the screen to about the middle of the body of water on the right and then talk to skard... its kinda hard to get the exact spot so keep talking to skard as you walk along the bottom. The water spirit should appear, followed by her sister the wind spirit and you will get a boat and a nice dust storm around you... after that its on to the hole the river goes to in machine mountain that you spotted while you were a frog. good luck and i hope this helps

Hi Dragon: I made it, finally! I've reached Chtunik and am in the last stretch of the game. I'd like to thank you for taking the time to re-play it again in order to help me: I appreciate this very much. Hope to be of some help to you in the future too!

Regards!

I just finished the game: thanks SimonK for a great dMod, I enjoyed it a lot.

Now, on to Necromancer: is it out yet, I haven't checked!

"Now, on to Necromancer: is it out yet, I haven't checked!"

Nope.

its coming out the day after tomorrow right?

LOL @ Dragon's "the day after tomorrow"!

Sorry, didn't mean to rush anyone, it was just the message at the end of the game that got me going.

I've also tried the Tmod "Dink goes Boating" by SimonK, great to play too!

Meantime, I'll try other dMods & will listen to your suggestions for the best!

'care all!

yeah I've been waiting for Necromancer to come out too... I think it's the most anticipated DMOD at this point. we're waiting simonK.....

Really?! Hmm... maybe if we bribed him a bit, what do you think?! Just kidding. Artists are not easy to hold but when they give, it is with all their hearts!

Long live SimonK..!

Actually it's probably a toss up between Necromancer and Cloud Castle 3, both should be awesome DMODs.
