Myst III: Exile Hints
What is the exact sequence for the posts?
1 of 8: 1) Start with the yellow post near the dome.
2 of 8: 2) Aim the beam at a nearby blue post. That post is 120 degrees to the right, as you follow the beam's path.
3 of 8: 3) Then aim the beam to its left, to a green post on the other side of the island.
4 of 8: 4) From there, aim the beam at a nearby red post, to the beam's right.
5 of 8: 5) Aim the beam at a yellow post fairly close by (not the one back where you started), to the beam's right.
6 of 8: 6) Aim the beam at the nearby purple post, to the beam's right.
7 of 8: 7) Aim the beam at the red post that was back where you first arrived on the island, to the beam's right.
8 of 8: 8) Finally, aim the beam at the device in front of the door you're trying to unlock.
