okay, i've totally tried it six different times. i've also tried going back and forth each time
every time i get the same peices of letters and objects to the point that i can see molitor and the arch is basically made but there's a peice, like just the top missing from the left side...
and then no matter how many times i go back and forth and how carefully i rescan the painting, nothing absolutely nothing
it seems like because i can see molitor and all the other basic peices, mac should recognise it by now, especially since there doesn't seem to be any other pieces left.
anyway, kinda stuck and confused, are there any peices elsewhere? or is there soemthing i have to do to trigger his recognition?
or is this really a glitch?
i don't know what to do, and it's kinda driving me crazy :-[

Status : Online | Hi there, I am trying to figure out the picture given by Hulot to Gus.....I have found the following
Four Differences:
1. Nobody inside the coffin in the middle of the picture. 2. Two Orange Bowls on the right are missing. 3. One Cross Shield missing on the right. 4. Top Right person getting slain by sword is missing.
I am missing the "number of gallows on the top right side? I just can't find it...can someone be more clear where that is? I am not sure. I have looked and I know it is probably right in front of me by I just can't see it.

You're right about using dates, but not dates from any book. Have another look around on the 1st floor. You'll find some other dates there.

The kidnaping has taken place. Where do I find this picture of the Head so I can draw it and show it I'm guessing this is my next step.

Status : Online | ok people,
to those of you who can't find the key at the eaton's house behind the poster,
for me, it was in room 505..or 506... or..507..
whichever room the murder took place in.
also, has anyone encountered the bug where you can't get all the peices of the painting puzzle, is this supposed to happen/
is there another trigger other than the sketch of the head?

.....should the lockpicks be used at the hotel or Hellouin's Office.....anybody have any IDEAS here? You can use the lockpicks to get into either place. Once you do, something will change in the game to let you into the other place.

Every number belongs to one element which is associated with one symbol which can be found on a bottle. That's all you need to know.

Status : Online | oops made a typo there yeah i figured it out.. the Formula item made me do an error manipulating the vials..
Now i really dont know what to do, I gave most of the evidence to the Inspector Lebrun.. but still doesnt want to cooperate.
I'm stuck at the Candle/Painting puzzle.. Still trying to find the LAST letter of the NAME/WORD of the puzzle... damn stupid puzzle it is indeed!
` ` ` ` ` ` spoiler ` `
For those who can't seem to activate the Painting Puzzle. Go to the candle/photo of Hulot. Grab a candlestick (talk to Berenice if you haven't already with the Baphomet Head Sketch), then go back to the Photo/Candles. MOVE RIGHT, then FACE the candle/photo. THE PAINTING IS ACTUALLY THE HUGE ONE ON THE WALL!!! have fun im missing 1 piece.. theres like 5 letters? and 12+ pieces to find!
