Uru: Ages Beyond Myst Hints
How do I restore power to some of the devices in this age?
1 of 18: Start by leaving the building where you first entered this age, and explore the walkways out in the open air.
2 of 18: One of the stations that you can reach out here is this age's "power station."
3 of 18: Specifically, as you are heading from the entrance, stop at the first station to your left. You will see three levers around the outside of the station, a periscope on one half of the inside, and a yellow button on the other half.
4 of 18: Notice the D'ni number that is on the yellow button.
6 of 18: That means you need to press it three times. Once you do this, an antenna will raise from the center of this platform. (Pressing it again will lower the antenna, so if you somehow accidentally press too many times, just keep pressing again until the antenna raises itself again.)
7 of 18: Try looking through the periscope once you've raised the antenna and see what you can see there.
8 of 18: Notice the left and right buttons on either side of the viewfinder's window, and the up and down buttons clustered together on the bottom.
9 of 18: Clicking on any of these buttons will make the antenna move -- and keep moving -- in the direction that you click on.
10 of 18: Click several times on the same button to make the antenna move faster, or click on the opposite button to slow it down or stop it. (For example, click once on the left button to start the antenna moving to the left, click again to speed it up, and then click on the right button once to slow it back down and again to stop it completely.)
11 of 18: You may also notice this age's sun rotates very quickly, and you may see it pass through your viewfinder. (You may have to move the periscope up a bit first, depending on where it was before you read these hints.)
12 of 18: Maybe you need to aim the antenna at something specific.
13 of 18: And since you can keep the antenna rotating, that doesn't have to be a stationary target.
14 of 18: Try getting the antenna to follow the sun as it moves.
15 of 18: Once you've lined up the antenna correctly and can hear the sound of machinery, you're nearly there. All you need to do is distribute the power to the devices around this age.
16 of 18: Each of the three levers around the outside of the platform distribute the power.
17 of 18: Push the lever away from you to distribute the power.
18 of 18: One of the three levers will be stuck, but you don't need to worry about that one. Just pull the two that you can, and everything that needs power will get it.
