If you just can't solve the timed puzzle on level 6...

I made a little script which does the timing for you. I don't really know how to prove it is not a virus of some sort but if you look at my other (admittedly) few posts you will see that nobody died... :)

I posted the tool in my blog here: http://kesimunka.blogspot.de/2012/04/le ... apped.html

Original text:
On the sixth level "Trapped" of Legend of Grimrock is a very mean puzzle in the southwestern part of the level. I just couldn't do it and after 2 hours I made a little script which did the timing for me.

Personally I don't consider this cheating but self-preservation :)

Just download the tool, start it and follow the onscreen instructions:
Here they are in short:
- Face the first switch
- Press Control + F1
- wait for the script to finish

- Solve the minipuzzle to be able to continue.

- Go back to the first switch and face it again
- Press Control + F2

- wait for the script to finish


Done! Finally! :)
Edit: Some users reported the second part to be borked. I changed the timing and it should most probably work now :)

My solution to time critical puzzles was to use cheat engine and speedhack the game to run at 25% speed.

Just a small little tip, make sure you're not over encumbered when doing this timed puzzle, it makes it ALOT harder to do if you are... found that out the hard way :lol:

I can do that if you send me a savegame. I'm on level 13 or 12 and don't want to go all the way back to lvl 5 :) Send it to " tastyspamgoeshere at googlemail.com "

Just AutoHotKey. It's free, easy to code in and easy to learn.
