Ooooh goody! Can't wait to see what they have in store for the second picture :D
|
YEAH IT'S ON NOW
Any guesses as to what the next picture will reveal? |
Wooot, start in up again! Maybe we'll get something about the blind mudokons or tear extractors. That would give a shudder

Just so you know
EDIT: Looks like they updated the oddworld.com/soulstorm page. the message now reads: Photo 2 - Encrypted |
|
Dots, dashes and slashes... what could this mean?
|
I got
OTDOTDOT DMSDASH D From the morse in the top right. I think I did something wrong. |
Seems like the morse code on the new image is spelling out more morse code...this'll be fun

Which turns back into the first lot. This is going to be fun EDIT: Pigpen cypher (maybe) so far I have OEBU FEEN PPAZ Working from a phone is slow |
Woo hoo!!! Work for four hours, then in I shall dig....

I can't do anything right now because I am in class but looking at the image, there are small black spots under the social links in the bottom left corner, they look like they form more symbols for a cipher. I will check back after class!

New image everybody and there's a lot on it:
http://www.oddworld.com/soulstorm/1029contact/pada.jpg EDIT: Just taken a quick stab at the image to identify what is on it. I have marked what I have seen with red rectangles with numbers next to them. 1 - Morse code - Haven't translated much of it and I believe all the codes are part of a big code. One I quickly typed into a Morse Code translator gave me a sentence reading 'OTDOT DOT D7DASH D' Maybe we need to translate these and then translate the result? 2 - Some alphabet swapped set of characters? The sort that are mathematically based? I think remember Gunnr figuring these out on the redacted document. 3 - Arrows like the ones from the redacted document. 4 - Strange pattern, doesn't look random, looks very uniform 5 - Braille? 6 - 1029 symbol over glukkon's face. 'We will rise' http://i64.tinypic.com/2m2i4hs.jpg |

[Edit - Should have refreshed before posting. Damn, you guys work fast]
Hi! I'm quite new to the forums, but I just want to thank everyone for their work so far! I think I've deciphered the Braille on the bottom left of the new picture. If I've got it right it says: "Spread our message" Hope it helps! |

Just had an email from the Oddworld newsletter!
|
And there is a barcode in it, I guess we need to decode it as well
EDIT: Link to newsletter: http://us3.campaign-archive2.com/?u=...0&e=6a2b5665ee https://gallery.mailchimp.com/2b6dca...ce4084fc2c.png looks like the barcode reads: Ivzw gsv mfnyvih pmld gsv gifgs (I used this site: https://online-barcode-reader.inliteresearch.com/) |
Wow, you guys are forum ninjas, you managed to get some translations going before I managed to upload lol. Also, looks like I originally posted in the wrong place seeing as I'm now mysteriously here so to whoever moved my post to the appropriate thread, thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.
I'm gonna try and see what I can uncover seeing as you guys have this special set of characters and morse code underway EDIT: Figured out the braille under the social media part of the image. It says: "Spread our message" |
The barcode from the newsletter says:

Morse code translates to
DASHDOTDOTDOT DOT DASH DOTDOTDOTDOT DOT DOTDOTDOT DASH DASHDASHDASHDASH DOTDASHDOT DASHDASH Or -... . - .... . ... - --- .-. -- Or BETHESTORM |
Excellent find GreenAnhinga! I see 3 different morse code, which one are you referring to?
Ugh, I just spotted the arrows on the left side of the pic, we never managed to break that code, did we? Edit: Nice work PenguinX45654, it's easier to point out what we are looking at, could you maybe give different numbers to the different morse codes? Also could item 4 be two barcodes, one horizontally and one vertically? |
:
I hate those arrows more than I should. |
Could the cube be morse code horizontally and vertically? For example:
https://i.imgur.com/soesyrC.png Edit: Looking more closely, the dashes seem to vary in length which more or less rules out it being morse code... However with code running vertical and horizontal maybe there are just some "artifacts"... Or maybe tap code/some other form of dots/dashes code? hmmmm.... |
