Help w/ Fate of Atlantis...

Post by FeralKat »

I've been replaying my dad's old copy of Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, and I've gotten as far as the submarine. Except, when it comes to steering the sub, the game tells me the rudder's locked--even though I've found all the levers and unlocked the steering wheel. Is this some kind of glitch? :shock: I can't progress without steering the sub!!

It's been a long time since I played this scene, so I don't really remember. But I've played through the scene now, using boot params to get there, and the only time I got any message about the rudder being locked while steering the submarine was when piloting it backwards.

I think that, too, is a consequence of piloting the submarine backwards. (To change direction, you need to stop the engines first.)
