INTRODUCTION G0100 =============================================================================== Welcome to 'Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective, Vol. II' for the PC, an adventure game by ICOM Simulations released in 1992. Suggestions, comments or errors - e-mail me about it. Enjoy! =============================================================================== 02.) BASICS G0200 =============================================================================== The Map displays eight investigative tool icons. You use them to gather evidence. Holmes' Book Horse and Carriage Notebook Holmes' Files Directory Baker Street Irregulars Newspaper Scoring and Trial To use a tool, just click its icon. Remember that your goal is to gather the most information from the least number of persons or places while visiting each as few times as possible. - Horse and Carriage Click this icon to travel to the selected person or place. To close this tool, click the Stop button. - Holmes' Files Click this icon to look up Holmes' notes on the selected person or place. To close this tool, click the square Stop button in the lower left-hand corner of the file. - Baker Street Irregulars Click this icon to read a telegram containing street information about the selected person or place. To close this tool, click the square Stop button in the lower left-hand corner of the telegram. Newspaper: `````````` Selecting the correct date for the Times enables you to read more about the case if you plan on solving the case on your own. Trial: `````` When you think you've gathered enough evidence, click the Scoring and Trial icon to enter the courtroom. If you are asked to name a person or place, use your directory or notebook to choose one. When you feel you have the right choice, click on the "Confirm Answer" icon. Multiple choice questions work about the same. Choose the correct answer, then click on "Confirm Answer" icon. If you messed up you need to restart the trial from the beginning. Scoring: ```````` Pertinent Travel clues = 7 points Travel (All other clues) = 10 points Holmes Files = 1 point Baker Street Irregulars = 5 points Red Herrings (Travel) = 20 points Red Herrings (BS Irreg.) = 10 points A "Pertinent Travel Clue" is one of the essential clues that you must see to be able to solve the case and visit the judge. The number of these clues vary depending the mystery. All other video sequences which contains clues (although not essential clues) are considered "Travel." If you use "Holmes' Files" you will have a point added to your score for each time you access the files. To avoid this but help in your research, I have included all the files into the case's sub-section, aptly named "Holmes' Files". Whenever you send the Baker Street Irregulars to visit an area with a clue, five points will be added to your score. Sending Holmes/Watson to visit a dead end, or red herring, will add twenty points to your score. A red herring occurs when there are no clues to be found at a location, and Holmes/Watson are "wasting their time." A brief video clip or illustration will inform you that you have come to a dead end. Sending the Baker Street Irregulars to visit a dead end, a red herring, will add ten points to your score. The Baker Street Irregulars will send a telegram stating they could not find out any information at the person/location they were sent to if it was a red herring. Video Player: ````````````` During playback, you can use the player to give you better control over the scene. The controls are similar to that of a VCR's. Here's a brief description of the video controls. Replay - Starts playing from the beginning of the scene. Play - Starts playing from where you are in the scene. Pause - Pauses at the current frame. If you were already paused, you will start playing. Stop - Stops the video scene. Shuttle Reverse - Shuttles the scene backwards. Shuttle Forward - Shuttles the scene forwards. Scroll Bar and Thumb - The thumbs position in the scroll bar shows you where you currently are in the scene. Clicking anywhere on the scroll bar will bring up that frame and pause. If you hold the button down the thumb will follow the cursor. Sound Volume: ````````````` While playing, press CTRL + or simultaneously in order to will be able to increase or decrease the volume respectively. Technical Issues: ````````````````` If you are having trouble to get the game to run on your PC, consult the manual for a possible fix. The game runs fine under Windows XP and below, and as alternative you can run the game in DoxBox. I personally did not have sound when I tried that, but the manual might have fixes for that too. If you are tired of loading the CD and/or mounting it in DosBox each time, you can also simply copy the game's files (incl. all hidden ones) into a folder on your HD. There is no copy protection on the game, just remember the copyRIGHT of the creators... Other Releases: ``````````````` There were three volumes in the Consulting Detective series. The first two were also released on consoles, such as SegaCD and Turbo Grafx. The games are identical, yet controls and such things are obviously different. You can use this guide for any version. =============================================================================== 03.)
