I need a little help with Gabriel Knight 3. I just started the game, but I was not sure how the game worked. Nothing seemed to be happening after I talked to all the characters, so I got a walk-through and did the required activities for Day 1, 10 am. Now my character is standing a the hotel exterior, but nothing seems to be happening. My walk-thought says: end of time block. I am not sure how to advance the game so it will go to Day 1, 12 pm.

What do I need to do? What is supposed to happen, so I will know I have advanced to new time block?

Thanks
Kori

when the time block ends, you'll see a loading screen with the "tick-tack" sound and time displayed on it.
As I remember there's a lot to do when you start. Talk to everyone, go out, talk on the telephone etc. etc.

It's been a long time since I played GK3 so I don't remember that well.
I've started with nothing and I still have most of it left

This part finishes when you hear the conversation between Stelle Stiles and Lady Howard behind a panel in the museum, not only when you talk to them. Did you do that? Like Sysryn said, it should appear a loading screen, so you will notice if you begin a new time block.

I never saw a 'loading screen ', so I guess I missed something. I will go back over my notes and try to find out what I need to do. At least now, I know to watch for the loading screen.

Thanks

I think the first thing you need to do to move the time is call the prince.

Thanks Shany
I already called the prince, so it must be something else I missed. I probably did not finish a converation with one of my characters. I will double check them.

Yes, I looked at holy grail book also. I went to the museum also. Tonight, I'm going back to the museum and talk to the characters again.

Not the first time. I went back and looked at both books this time. (I missed one on the first visit to book store.) Still stuck in first time block. Perhaps I need to go back and talk to the characters again. I have a feeling the museum lady is the key. (I am at work right now.) I will go try again tonight.

I bought this game becaue I heard it was very popular. I hope it gets better than it has been so far. The structure of the puzzels seems rigid and unforgiving. My Hint button does not seem to work in the game. As far as I know, my game is a legal copy. I bought it on Amazon.com. and it looks factory made. Perhaps I just need to get used to playing it.

IIRC the hint button works like in GK2 - once you're on the map screen it tells you which places you still need to do things in.
You don't have a map screen yet since you don't have a moped. You'll get to it eventually.

As for the museum - You need to remember that this game is in 3D, and it uses that. You must be in the right place in the museum, think of where the ladies are located, and how can that help you.

GK3 is one of my favorites games, you're just at the begining. Continue playing it and you won't get disappointed, believe me

Thank you Shany and Taio

After I clicked on both books, I went back to the museum. The woman who runs the museum and the two ladies at the museum, then had Holly Grail talk icons. I had already talked to both, and I thought I had all the talk information. When I clicked on the Holly Grail book, some new talk icons appeared for these characters.

After I went back to the hotel entrance the time splash screen appeared. Thanks for help guys. I think I have the hang of it now. If I get into any more trouble spots, I'll check in with you again.

I am using Windows XP. So far I have not had any bad problems running the game. The mouse does not always start working when I first start the game, but that's about all so far. Are there any patches I need to load?

i played the game without any patches and it worked just fine. I used the heyboard to move the camera around and when I got to the location where I wanted then I'd click somewhere and Gabe would show up there immediately.

So for example if you're going from the hotel entrance to the book store you don't have to click
your way to it (but you can), you just move the camera way over there and click on the book store
window. Gabriel will come up in a sec.
I've started with nothing and I still have most of it left
