I went to the 3 scrolls in order then got the clue location for the white one but when i went to the location, the particular white symbol isnt there..and i am in the correct room and i've checked everything..especially since there's not much to check

In which room are you? Cause it's possible that there's other rooms with the same name, or that some scroll racks appear to be in another room, but they're actually still in your room... Cause if you've gotten the clue to the right location, then it really should be there...

EDIT: darn, too slow

Oh, we are on the same thread that I left last night? hmmm guess we are going to have to slug this one out by ourselves.

I am still trying to get jellied. Now though, if I am correct, I need to get the third crystal to proceed, but I do not need to use the colored lights?

But we DO need to insert the crystal in the model?

Yes, you do need the third crystal to preceed, but you do not need to see the lights, so you don't have to insert it into the model either, when you've gotten the third crystal, you can just start by going through the repository for finding white scrolls!

Riddle trap? First, is this something new that has been added to the tomb?

Nope, this trap has been there since the very beginning. It's the trap where your pet sees all kinds of symbols on a wall and decides to stay there a while to try to decypher them.

Thanks!! and Yippeeee!! Because I just found that one....didn't WANT that one but at least I know where it is...lol

Do I have any confirmation that the order of the symbols you need to get for the fourth crystal is in reverse starting from the bottom (like the previous scroll hunt)? Otherwise I waster time last night v_v

I'm afraid Sacrilege is right, the last crystal can be obtained by going over your blanks in regular table order... But look at it from the bright side: if you've already written down coordinates of some scrolls for the last symbol, then you won't need to search for them anymore when you get there again

The color order for the scrolls is all random, at first people thought the first one was always catalog order, but it's not. You have to try all color combinations for each symbol. Someone at the beginning found a clever way of doing this faster though:
Y - B - R - Y - B - Y - R - B - Y
If you go in that order you use every color combination and are bound to get the white scroll message somewhere in there.

I don't think this is entirely correct. Each sequence appears only once (at least in mine) and so you know that if your first sequence was (say) R B Y then that sequence won't appear again in the other 3 so you don't need to try it. (Note: This is how it was for me - it may be useful if others could confirm it).

To get the 4th crystal clue I went in order L to R, Top to Bottom. Probably won't do you any good but my color orders were:

BYR
RBY
BRY
YRB
