Remember: This is a MINI plot and with NO WAR portion.
Let's repeat. MINI PLOT and NO WAR.
One more time. MINI PLOT and NO WAR.

======== Links of interest =========
Last Thread: http://www.pinkpt.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=25328
Altador: http://www.neopets.com/altador/index.phtml?
Star Mapper (thanks DarkFire): http://www.boomspeed.com/zaniam/theSky.html & instructions.

(Note: Make sure you click CONTINUE (if applicable) when you have completed each part!)
========= The Beginning ============
1. Click the big castle in the center of the map, The Hall of Heroes
2. In the very back-right corner, you'll see a familiar character. Click him!
3. Hey! It's our old friend again. Looks like he has a new job-- Janitor. Click that button that's next to him.
---> Hm, nothing happened.
4. Oh well, Now click the Altadorian Archives, then go into the doorway on the right.
5. Click the book that is under one of the table legs and balancing it.
---> Hm, we're going to have to replace it...
6. Now go to the QUARRY. And find a rock that'll be suitable. Stumped? Here.
---> Aha! A good replacement for that book...
7. Go back to the Altadorian Archives and click that same book again.
---> We can access the book now! (Located near the top-right part of the scene)
8. You can read the prologue from that book now.
---> Advance a page by clicking the top-right of the book, go back by clicking the top-left.
*** Page 1~3 Acquired! *** (out of 53 pages)
9. Go back to the Janitor in The Hall of Heroes and talk to him.
---> Hmm. We're going to need something to help oil some gears...
10. Click each statue until you find a bottle of oil & a rag.
---> Note: Location is different for each person. Perhaps you should write where you found it, just in case. (Although evidence indicates that it is NOT relevant)
11. Once you've found it, go back to the Janitor and click the button again.
---> The ceiling opens up! Let there be LIGHT!
* On the left side of The Hall of Heroes, there is now a staircase leading up to a dome-shaped room. Looks like a telescope is missing.
* If you click each statue in The Hall of Heroes, on the very top pixels /section of the picture of the statue, you can click and look up, and get some arrangement of gems. There is a helpful compilation of the pictures by soymimi here

======= We see the light =======
1. So it looks like the Astronomy club is finally advertising. Go to the Altador Archives and click the pamphlet that shows a telescope. Or click here!
---> You've recieved a telescope!
2. Go back to the Hall of Heroes and go up the staircase on the left side. Click the telescope holder.
---> It fits! You've found the cinderella! ... Actually I guess you found the slipper... oh whatever.
3. Now for the work. Get to it! Start mapping. By the way, Everyone's star formation is different from another. We can help with details, but you're going to have to interpret on your own from now on!
---> Excellent star mapper courtesy of DarkFire here. Follow the instructions on her post.
---> If you want to map your coordinates yourself in Excel, AngelFoxBlue wrote some pretty clear instructions on doing that here.

===== Constellations: Found! ======
1. THE SLEEPER
--> a. Go to The TOMB (bottom-left corner of the main Altador Map)
On the door of the tomb, the black dots are clickable. Try clicking it.
It lights up
--> b. Go to the Wise Lenny in The Altadorian Archives.
--> c. Go to the observatory and look in your telescope. (At this time use Darkfire's mapper. Any time before this you'll get a different set of stars!)
--> d. Find the exact formation found in part a (the orientation is as seen on the tomb doors-- it is NOT rotated in any way) and you will have found your first constellation! (Important note: You MUST connect the lines rather than just using "Add Star". If you don't, the correct stars can be rejected!)
--> e. After you have found it, go back to the Lenny at the Altadorian Archives.
*** Page 4~7 Acquired! ***
--> f. Go to the Hall of Heros and click on the DARK FAERIE (the one towards the bottom) and look up. The jewels are illuminated! (And the janitor complains of the light)
--> g. Check in with the Astronomy Club and see what they have to say about your discovery.

2. THE DREAMER
--> a. The top right cloud in Altador is clickable. Do it.
--> b. Near the top part of picture, click on the gaps inbetween the clouds. THis will reveal your new constellation to find.
--> c. Talk to the Lenny again to see what he has to say now
--> d. Go back to the Observatory and look through your telescope.
===> NOTE: Your star map is the SAME as before.
===> NOTE: You must connect the "top part" using the *connect stars* option, but to get the lone star you MUST use the *add star* option.
--> e. Once you have obtained your constellation and submitted, the jewels above The Dreamer (left side) will be illuminated.
--> f. Go back to the Lenny, astronomy club, Janitor to get new messages.
*** Page 8~11 Acquired! ***

========================================
Any additions/corrections should be posted here.

*sigh*

I've already found 8 constellations, of which 7 aren't even mine...

It ain't that hard people!

Just know what you are looking for.

Look for patterns, for example: you need 2 stars on the exact same level, and exactly between them, a 3rd star which is just a few milimeters lower.

Can't miss.

SNak Edit: (1) Don't post pictures that stretch the forums. (2) What have I said about complaining about helping people.

I noticed that the starfield has been expanded slightly. The crosshairs now go to 400 on each axis - does that mean that with each constellation you find, the larger the sky will be when you have to find another one? that might rule out finding at least one constellation in advance.


Oh, everyone thinks I'm crazy, just 'cause I try to warn people about the face-sucking aliens headed for Earth. Yeah, laugh now, have your face sucked off later. When the aliens come, I'll be the only one left with a face, and I'll be using that face to laugh at all of you, even though I'll be sad.

There's a lot of people here who have maps of their whole sky. Can someone please explain how to do it? I might be able to find my constellations easier if I had that.

It's a pity that they haven't released more constellations - its' a little annoying finding one, then sitting around waiting for the next update. On the other hand I think it does give those of us who are a little behind to catch up.

If you read the first post, there is a link to a star mapper. Read the first post. And you should be able to get it. There are instructions too.

[edit] EEk I forgot: I couldn't determine if you needed the white or the blue star on the end. Besides that, it's definatly the constellation you are looking for. [/edit]

@octochan: Before I even found sleeper, I could already see my dreamer (had a pic)

@ admin: 1. srry didn't know, on my resolution everything was looking fine.

Gnight everybody.

I just realised that my stars ARE different. With this set, I have 54 more stars. Yes, most of these were outside the "box" and my Dreamer constellation is in my Seeker set, but this might mean that the star map will get larger and larger... Hmm...

I figured it was going to be The Dreamer, mainly because the code someone posted had The Sleeper assigned as overlay1 and The Dreamer assigned as overlay2. Since it's holding true to form thus far, it can be determined what the probable remainder of the constellation order might be. Well, let's see if it continues. The next constellation should be The First to Rise followed by The Farmer.
