Myst IV: Revelation Hints
How can I match the crystals with the tuning cables?
1 of 5: The three crystals give us three different settings to try entering on the cables. In order to figure out what order the three settings should be entered in on the cables, it is important to pay close attention to details near the tuning gears at the cables -- and near the crystals themselves.
2 of 5: The tuning gears each have a symbol on them -- a circle, a pentagon, or a hexagon.
3 of 5: You'll need to find a way to relate each of those symbols to each of the three crystals. Did you notice any similar geometric shapes in the area of the crystals?
4 of 5: Each crystal is nested within a dark rock. The rock is shaped, kind of like a tube, around each crystal.
5 of 5: If you pay close attention to each tube surrounding each crystal, you'll find that they each have their own geometric shape -- either a circle, pentagon, or hexagon.
