Indy Jones Fate Atlantis Sun Disk?

**XDelusion** · 12-02-2011, 02:01 PM

Alright, so I'm playing through Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis under MorphOS (talkie version).

I am at an old Nazi dig site and am stranded on an Island. Sophia was just kidnapped by the Nazi's etc. etc. etc.

I have a basket, fishing net, but need the balloon.

Anyhow, when I try to use the Sundisc on the door at the dig site, no matter what I align it to, it does not work.

I hate to cheat, but I went to Gamefaqs and had a look at this guide, but....

It don't freakin' work! :/

Any ideas?

Where exactly are you? screenshot?

Maybe you need to use more than a sunstone?

It's been a very long time since I played this (the DOS version no less) but are you pressing down on the thing in the centre of the disk once its aligned? from memory I kinda got confused at that part because it wasn't immediately apparent that you had to press down on it once its aligned.

You should have a book in your inventory and it should have a quote about sunstones and the colony, I think it changes on every playthrough, what does your say?

As you can probably tell from my avatar I'm a bit of a lucasarts fanboy

While I can't remember the exact solution donutking is right that you need to press the spindle in the middle. Its not a simple case of just aligning the disks. Also depending on which playstyle you go for I am sure that puzzle changes. So an faq might not be the best solution. Read any books and clues again. Also post screenies of clues if possible.

Pushed the button. Here's the pics.

Are you playing the Wits path ? Sophia did not come with you if you played the Wits path. How can she be kidnapped?

As far as I remember you needed the ballon if you played the Wits path.

After pressing the spindle do you hear a "click" sound. If you do, open the door. (if that's the place I remember)... After you take what's inside, don't forget your SunStone.

Also you may need to close the lid of that crate you see there for the balloon

Fists.

Are you in Thera? (you went there after Girit)

I'm not at home right now. Off the top of my head I can tell you this.

I raced around the desert, found the Nazi Dig site, left there, flew to an island which I am now deserted on. I am apparently collecting pieces for a flying balloon, and there is another Nazi dig sight where in I am trying to figure out the Sundisc puzzle.

Heh

You are in Crete. (but I don't remember a balloon)

As far as I remember you need both the Sunstone and another stone to open that door.

you did some kind of surveying using some kind of instrument to find an X and you found the moonstone there. (it was about some bull statue's head and its horns)

Are you sure you are not thinking of the desert? The part where you get a map with an X on it to find the Nazi dig site that had the Sun Disc?

That's where I was before where I'm at now.

I'll look around the island and see if there is some place I could be digging.

no.. you found a surveying equipment when you crossed a bridge and went to the leftmost side of the screen. You used that equipment on a bulls head, and placed it somewhere. After that you aligned it to the horns of the bull. The two lines gave you an x and you dug that X using something.
