SoulStorm ARG - Spirit of 1029 - Photo 3

[artemisbot]

Are you freaking kidding me:

The community has already got to work unscrambling the images, and when clearer pictures of all three have been sent our way we’ll post an update.

[JayDee]

These flyers aren't lies, they're just alternative facts. Anyway great work figuring all this stuff out so quickly, the ARG always seems to hit when I'm away for a couple days.

[Shade_Meadows]

So... Question! why the zip has two versions of the second photo (Oddworld_Soulstorm_002)? and in (apparently) different qualities?
one is called "Vital" and the other is just (apparently) the HD version, no difference between them...
Weird...

Relevance? ;I

[Shade_Meadows]

also... the image names:
http://www.1029.io/repository/asset99/12362831522212/
http://www.1029.io/repository/asset99/71220283136/

WHA
TIF
YOU
TOO
OLD

"What if you too old" ? we must find the image "Are"?

EDIT: Never mind.. there is the "WET" pic...

[Xavier]

Shade, we already cracked all this, it's on the wiki

http://oddworld.wikia.com/wiki/Souls...d_transmission

[Shade_Meadows]

Oh... XD was late to the party then ;D gonna check it

[Xavier]

No worries Shade

By the way Xavier, flyer2_clean and flyer3_clean links don't work.

Sorry about that, should be good now.

[tmakz]

Glad pic 3 is up now Man the Magog cartel Think they Smart trying to warn about Spirit of 1029 ha those gluks arent Smart

[Xavier]

I'm pretty sure we still have to find one URL and that this is a clue for it:

ASSET9X / [REDACTED] / 333333333333

We still haven't found any way to use the embedded pictures:

E: Another thought with the work/comply thing. Perhaps Gluks are attempting a form of brainwashing? I mean, you spam those words enough, it'll drive anyone insane. Especially if theyre locked in a small room lol.

---
I totally agree with this hypothesis... The insane repetition of these 3 words Can tranform Muds in the perfect Slave,
'Cause in this way, they won't to escape...
If this Muds are present in-game, this Will be a very hard job: we have to Save somebody that do not want to be' free!

I think the Picture that Oddworld send to us are useful to know the origins of the Mudokon feeling (angry & sad expecially)... So now we know why Muds were Angry or Sad.
In this new game, we Can see more feeling for Muds and for Abe, this Will be a hard challenge!

I'm pretty sure we still have to find one URL and that this is a clue for it:

Do you think it maybe has something to do with the redacted words? Like we guess the words, get a code from the malachim symbols, then that's our url? I feel like that might be a bit too much of a stab in the dark tho haha

[Shade_Meadows]

I really wonder if they will show a hd version of the screaming mud...
woah

[TopHattedTime]

woah

That's gonna be pretty harrowing if they do...

I am very excited for soulstorm holy SHIT

[GlitterPanther]

So iv been working on ideas for the redacted words

KNOW or NOTICE
ESCAPE
ABE OR PLEASE

Also no one mentioned on all of the flyers was roman numerals XIXX (flyer 1) which when reversed reads 29, could be from 1029?...

Flyer 2 = 49

Flyer 3 = 39

Hey! That might be a clue to a new URL. Good work!

[Xavier]

Aren't those simply 'x' characters written above the original text to censor it?

[GlitterPanther]

I thought that until you notice the I in it
And the fact it changes length

Xixx 1 = 29 reversed
Xxxxix 49
Xxxix 39

EDIT

On another look you could be right


Then what about all the other words rhat are marked or circled like

FREE
ALL
SLAVES
99
PROFIT
TRUTH
RISI

[Vince]

Abe's Oddysee had 99 slaves. Sometimes more because the game bugged up half the time... Pretty sure I rescued 104 at the end of it, ahah.

Also, what have we still got left to solve?


Just a heads up:
We still have 'SEVENTYTHREE' and I think 'BACKBREAKING' that have yet to be used anywhere... And maybe the 57 for an image a while back.

[Xavier]

Pretty sure only SEVENTYTHREE is the only real clue. BACKBREAKING was just a happy coincidence and 57 too.

[TheManFromMudos]

I don't know if it's any help, but after removing the names of moons and planets from the first line of toollist.txt, I got '/LILII/'. Could be Roman numerals for 51 and 52, or perhaps it's for a cypher of some sort. I'll keep looking to see if the pattern repeats.

EDIT: After I went through the whole document, I got this:

/LILII/LILII/LILII/LILIILILII/LILIILILIILI/LIILILII/LILIILILII/LILIILILII/LILIILILII/LILII/LILIILILII/LILIILILII/LILIILILIILILII/LILII/LILIILILII/LILII/LILII/LILIILILIILILII/LILII/LILIILILIILILII/LILIILILIILILIILILII/LILIILILIILILII/LILII//LILII//LILII/LILII/

Because it's the same two letters every time, perhaps it's supposed to represent binary code? I could be way off on this, but it seems like there's something here...

It's actually just because you didn't remove all of the names - two of the named moons are Jupiter LI and Jupiter LII. Sorry to burst your bubble

[TopHattedTime]

I think if there was more to find, OWI/1029 would've given us a gentle push in the right direction by now.

Time to just wait for the super-cleaned up versions of the flyers - I wanna read them properly

Damn! I sifted through ten pages of text on Microsoft Word for this?! Well, thanks for letting me know, anyway.

But, there could still be a secret message. If only we could figure out what //////////////////// means...

[Xavier]

There's a clue when you take all the letters right after the "/" character... You know, as explained on the wiki

I don't think they would give us a gentle push yet, we are way in advance on their communication/marketing schedule. We were already looking at the secret pages while the official Twitter was still posting the flyers.

[Havoc]

Has nobody mentioned the image they posted on their FB page?

[Varrok]

Inb4 this becomes the next OWF meme

[EVP_Glukkon]

I wonder what that character is supposed to be?
Looks cute, like an Asian fat cat or something.
