also, i know this pinches more into the gameplay-side, but i wish if we got more mutations that have double-edge effects, or like how's Don like to say "you will get what you wish, but the monkey's paw curls"

i wish all mutations were like that, but if we even get only some of them that have something similar, i can see them being more related to strains

Nothing?

[acoustic osprey]

ye

so either the Link System.683920 is useful to know sort of thing that can open/affect something out of the loading screen
or they haven't made it with the UI checks yet

or loading screen was not explained correctly, i suppose

what counts as a loading screen?

oh well

The Trike and INTUDER video are more then suffice for lore
just a bummer we can't figure this other thing out

[hexed forge]

Si

hopefully you find something while i sleep, yay!

good night

[bright musk]

we all love our favorite stego Salt (012)

[umbral sequoia]

Interested to see how the Allo injection video will go.

[ornate comet]

So what species haven’t appeared in a trial cam video yet

Including Allo like you said there’s Maia and hypsi off the top of my head

Idk if the cera and carno trail cam is still canon so carno is a maybe

[torn monolith]

you guys have amazing theories, i so love reading them all

[torn monolith]

looks like scratches, snowfall or/and bacteria/cells, but that is just the random static effect tho

[torn monolith]

are we...hypos? unsateable hunger

[slate zenith]

I love the new video they put out

[torn monolith]

cera was just in the trike/rex one

[fast forge]

allo was in the dibble vid last year

[snow jasper]

Whoops forgot about that

[ornate comet]

Ik I was talking about carno

[torn monolith]

yeah i was just being dyslexic and reading wrong

[long onyx]

#isle-phase-three body camping lore

[river marsh]

There were some allos creeping after the diablos after Atlas(?) (Might remember the wrong trike) knocked down one in a dominance display in the top left corner as both herds separated. Im assuming that one died due to being weakened after.

[nimble fractal]

Guys

I think I found lore

[umbral sequoia]

Huh, I missed that. I'll have to go back and check it out.

[fast forge]

The vid had

• Guarding drinkers
• Mixpacking
• Body camping

Lots of player behavior becoming canon

[merry zodiac]

https://tenor.com/view/what-monkey-shook-shocked-surprised-gif-8153885586429536809

[ornate comet]

Honestly it’s cool

[long onyx]

the lore is probably gonna boil down to "wow these dinosaurs sure act alot like humans"

[ornate comet]

Makes sense in lore as well

[fast forge]

It does seem like they are looking for recognizable human behavior in the dinosaurs

[ornate comet]

Mixpacking evolves to carnivores and herbivores working and living together, AE says this will ruin the ecosystem so they try to limit it with (something)

[old stone]

But its presented in a way unlike what players do. Atlas only guards the babies while they're drinking after one gets snagged by a deino (and its only atlas that does it), Salt only hangs around Atlas when Atlas is in the north part of the island, and we have no indication they work together to fight or anything, and Duke was protecting his last family member from predators. Each of these things are things that actual animals have been known to do, and are quite clearly different from actual player behavior

I think AE is just keeping track of any sort of deviation from known behavior, and not specifically looking for behavior that is "human"

As an example, when Atlas attacks the dibble. the note afterwards says that it was the first recorded time that Atlas had defended Duke from something without killing it, and that the dibble was largely unharmed. Thus, the behavior was logged because they don't know why Atlas did not kill the dibble and probably want to see if they can recreate the behavior

[river marsh]

Its rather normal for herbivores to tail others if alone. Theyre herd animals typically, so it makes sense theyd want more eyes.

Impala will pay attention to the alarm calls of birds, and zebras the impalas. Its why sometimes you get more deceptive interactions to compete for food: spook someone away and take the spoils.

As for the dibble: my guess is Atlas saw it as a funny young not-trike, and thus not a threat. So instead he made a point to stand over him which he probably would have done to another trike of similar size if they got over eager fighting Duke. That, to me, was a body language display to both help Duke and show him how to handle encounters like that, and not much else beyond that. Blood attracts predators too, so killing the dibble was not really beneficial.

[old stone]

Yeah, which is why I find it unlikely that AE would see it and jump to "those trikes are acting like humans"

[old stone]

Also, duke is the baby, atlas is the big prime elder.

[fast forge]

Well they aren't saying "those are humans" because they don't have enough info to say

Best they can do as scientists is say it is "anomalous behavior"

And yes, some of these behaviors are exhibited by wild animals.

But the point is not that these are remarkable behaviors that have never been seen before in the animal kingdom, it's that it's never before been observed in these animals

I do agree that the guarding and mixpacking behavior isn't the same as what we see actual players do (or at least to the same degree)

But like

We know Salt is based on an actual player, and has that player's funny behavior

"Mixpacking" as a real animal behavior is extremely rare - we are much more likely to see consistent ecological associations based on the traits of component species (i.e. giraffes have good sight, wildebeest have good sense of smell, together they are stronger), rather than the ad hoc random grouping that we see in game

Yes, there are cute gifs where a badger follows a coyote around like they are friends

But relative to the rest of the coyote population, this is extremely rare behavior

The fact that mixpacking in the isle is much more common than mixpacking in real animals suggests that it's a novel behavior

[old stone]

Yeah this is my takeaway too. I just think it is a bit of a leap in logic to say that AE is specifically trying to find human behavior in the animals

[river marsh]

Woop swapping that lol

[fast forge]

I wasn't saying it was a definite thing, it was just an idea that I think has some evidential support

[river marsh]

Honestly that would be cool if some herbivores had longer scent ranges to find food or water easier during droughts and gallis or other small critters followed them because of that to keep an eye out for danger and were thus tolerated

[old stone]

And, I don't think that player behavior is canon, we've yet to see any form of "mixpacking " in the trail cam videos aside from salt occasionally hanging out with a specific group of trikes, and I believe the note refers to salt as being atypical for this. So, probably something along the lines of salt and atlas have some sort of history that causes them to want to hang around each other in their encounters

[fast forge]

Well one of the slides referred to mixpacking as "M-Pack" iirc

[old stone]

Yes, but that does not mean that it is player levels of mixpacking

Like 8 different species of carnivores hanging out together and hunting with each other

[river marsh]

Also i noticed that the huge herd of trikes was only together when the babies were very small. Then as the young got older they split up more and more (implying food drain). Its interesting that Atlas and Duke had such tight bonds in particular by the end. Maybe the males normally/currently group separately from the females in isle canon until nesting season?

Seemed very elephant coded

[fast forge]

It's hard to say what is normal behavior with basically a sample size of 1

[river marsh]

True and an anomalous one at that

[old stone]

There is 2 separate units, there's atlas's family unit, which seemed to be him, his mate, and their children, and then the herd unit that family was apart of, which looked like it contained 2 or 3 family units at the beginning

[fast forge]

The creators of the video were calling it mixpacking, I'll call it mixpacking

[old stone]

After they're in highlands, there's an implication that a rex (Baron) attacked the herd unit and snagged a baby, and then after the herd unit dispersed into their separate family units

[river marsh]

True. Ik those split up. Did it clarify what happened to the mother? I know one of the kids got used as rex bait which is an oof- yeah

[fast forge]

If you want to draw a distinction between what we see in the video and what we see in game, feel free. But so far I see no evidence to make that distinction

[old stone]

I'm not saying it isn't mixpacking, I'm saying we've seen no indication that the full extent of player behavior is present in the lore

[river marsh]

Terrifying way to go out 😂

[fast forge]

I didn't say the full extent of player behavior was present in the lore

I wasn't making that argument, that all behavior in game is represented in the lore

[old stone]

I assume she got eaten by something, I also suspect that trike social groups are pretty tight in the lore, so when atlas died duke stayed around because that was the last member of his particular family unit that was left. Until he hears the stego broadcasts, one of which I suspect is specifically salt broadcasting, and he goes to find Salt since its a familiar creature

[river marsh]

Yeah i think that was Salt too ngl

Funny little reverse at the end

[old stone]

I see, I was just saying that I feel that there is a distinction between player mixpacking and lore mixpacking, because lore mixpacking so far is one stego hanging out with a specific trike, while player mixpacking can be up to a massive group of herbivores and carnivores working together to kill everything around them

[river marsh]

I crave a documentary in this style ngl

[old stone]

I really want to try and make an isle documentary series at some point in the future, but I've been having some minor issues with obs

[fast forge]

Mixpacking in lore is more than just that one stego because they literally refer to a pre-existing term when they see that behavior. They recognize it as mixpacking, and label it as such. So to say that the mixpacking in lore is only this one instance is erroneous - we don't know what form the mixpacking took, but it's clear that AE scientists had seen mixpacking before

[old stone]

I was wonder the impression that the M-PAK designation was made after Salt was observed hanging out with Atlas

[fast forge]

If it was a new concept with Salt, why wouldn't they create a similar anomalous behavior report? Instead it's a footnote

[old stone]

Also, I did not say that there is no other form of mixpacking in the lore but rather that this is the only form of lore mixpacking we have seen so far. whether it was the first or not, we don't know

[fast forge]

I'm not even sure about your point then

You're saying this isn't human behavior because it is different from in-game mixpacking, but we don't know what kind of mixpacking AE scientists have seen

[old stone]

Maybe they did, its just not part of the overall report that we see in this particular file recovery. My take is that the file recoveries are AE scientists managing to get access to the security logs on the island and making reports on the behavior we see in them. When they saw salt hanging out with atlas, it could have been the first form of mixpacking they saw, and thus made a different report under the m-pak desingation, which is referenced in a foot note. Or it could be the same thing but all mixpacking reports are on that same file and they just added the salt stuff, we don't know

[fast forge]

Indeed, but that doesn't seem like evidence enough to say that lore mixpacking is different from game mixpacking

The simplest explanation is that they are named the same thing, so they are the same thing

[old stone]

We only have the one lore example of mixpacking so far to go off of the kind of behavior that AE has seen regarding it. And, I don't think its human behavior because the dinos in the lore videos act very differently from how most players act in game, With the apparent exception of salt who I guess is based off of something a specific player would do, but I feel thats more the exception not the norm

Like in the diablo trail cam video, when the raptors managed to pin a dibble. In game players would have rushed in to help the pinned dibble immediately, but the dibbles in the video hang back in their defensive circle

[fast forge]

Okay, yes, we only have one example in lore, but we have the real thing in real life

If one of Shakespear's works talked about ducks, but the description wasn't quite right, we wouldn't assume it's a new type of duck. We'd assume it's the same that we see in the real world

[fast forge]

Yes, they don't behave exactly like humans. I discussed this yesterday

I'd imagine it's more animalistic. You don't think about entombing itself but... you are old, and this looks like a nice place to lay down... you feel sleepy, but funny too. So peaceful...

[old stone]

I'm not referring to that, I'm referring to the fact the the lore video animals act very different;y from how players act in game. Thus it is safe to assume that the full extent of mixpacking we may or may not see in the lore will probably be very very different in presentation from what we see in game, and will more so be a rare sight between specific individuals

[fast forge]

I'm saying we have one data point, but allusions to more, so we can't say for sure

[old stone]

Fair enough

But for me personally, I can't really see them canonizing the 20 strong doomstacks of rexes and trikes coordinating together for the purpose of murdering everything

[river marsh]

Tbh right now we seem to just be getting context. Everything seems functional and "normal" right now. These videos could very easilly take place in the past and collectively build toward a much darker story

[old stone]

True, but I am under the impression that these videos do take place after AE seemingly vacated the island and left the structures abandoned

[river marsh]

Could be that too. Im assuming theyre still active in my post above but we dont exactly have evidence of either yet lol

[old stone]

I imagine they're actively monitoring, but aren't there

At least not on the surface

[fast forge]

We saw a Gen 2 swap out the trail cam in the dibble video. I don't think there's evidence to say they've abandoned the isle by the time of the videos being recorded

If anything I'd say that the studies that they are engaged in suggest that they are still active on the island

[waxen rover]

I am curious about how they kept the dibble down for that long while they were doing the scene, because it wasn't a sleep pose

[acoustic osprey]

the videos are done in the game engine

so likely just kept the animation on loop

[waxen rover]

got it

[acoustic osprey]

[hexed forge]

yeah none of it is actually ingame with players

[acoustic osprey]

besides me

[hexed forge]

oh

[acoustic osprey]

yeah, having irl actors is more painful then just animated actors

with or without paying them
if you have the ability to not use actual actors without losing much or any quality, it just makes the production more convenient

[snow jasper]

gosh, if only video games were as smooth as they are in these lore videos

one technological impossibility maybe

I would imagine the player itself is the biggest factor, you could never prevent a player from doing absolute random movements that look dumb

The humble Maiasuchus twerking

i was thinking more about delay, rubberbanding and server issues

That would be lovely

[acoustic osprey]

controllers and billions of money put into the smoothest IK system and some sort of hybrid-procedural animation movement system

[snow jasper]

a player's free will is beyond a technological hurdle hehe

I doubt this planet contains the resources and hardware for such a possibility

its a pretty dream however

Miss this cute lil guy

What was the story behind the hypos anyway lol

Are they still in game files?

Or is that illegal to ask (don don’t ban)

[strange shell]

Hypers
Mutated dinos
They're not in evrima yet
You can ask but you must follow your question with "Praise the Replicator!" and perform a sacrifice

[languid escarp]

Praise be

❌😵🪦 ded

They were in spiro but alas they are no longer a concept I assume

[sonic rampart]

They were never in Spiro and are still planned

[languid escarp]

Or legacy idk what the descriptions are

Still planned ok cool

They were in the one w center lake

Oh yeah that’s gateway k bye

No v3 ah ok bye fr

[merry zodiac]

Their models are probably in works, when don last showed a hypo in ue5 he said “oh this isnt the updated model btw”

He also said he wont announce it, hypos will just start showing up randomly in the servers

[languid escarp]

That will be rad

[civic pollen]

[gaunt dawn]

https://youtu.be/ErNe_m9KW68?si=ySiypNP2cpMpaEF6 21:29

Is that the updated model?

[ornate comet]

The updated model isn’t in game as of yet. Or even fully modeled at all for all we know

[fast forge]

Endgame content most likely

We are just now seeing the closing of the core game loop, so strains are probably a few years away

[languid escarp]

man I imagine they were soo pumped while making those models and just had to put them in game for the exhilaration of it, haha that stream is so accurate for how they introduced them into servers way back then. You’d just hear an insanely monstrous sounding roar off in the distance and be like wtaf was that… and they’d be going on massive killing sprees lmao

[torn monolith]

i even have screenshot of the rex, it was insane back then for sure and knowing they wanted to make more was hype

[novel cedar]

I think if I remember correctly they've got 3 strains in total Hypo, Neuro, and Tisso

[torn monolith]

Something like that

[strange shell]

There's also the mysterious O strain, also nicknamed Oreo strain

No

He wont show it until it is done

He even adressed it there

In the last second that that is the old model

Nothing will be mentioned about them, shown about them, how you get them or anything of sorts. As Don said, “There will be a day when the sound goes off in one of the tests, and people who have been playing since the beggining will know” We can only dread their arrival, as when they come it will be the end of anything that heard that roar.

Hypo rex might already be done, but we won’t know until Don decides it is time.

[torn monolith]

that is the most worrisome and scary way of putting it lol

i know what to expect if i start all of sudden hearing big scary sounds

[merry zodiac]

Imagine being a pair of prime rexes, without a worry in the world, you hear a strange rex roar and in the horizon a silhouette appears. It seems like you have a challanger for the hunting ground, nothing out of the ordinary. Theres two of you and one of him so you start walking towards them, but as you get closer it gets bigger and bigger and bigger, until you see an 18 ton abomination ahead of you. You realize, you are doomed.

[torn monolith]

horror game indeed

[acoustic osprey]

I really want to make and recreate the slides from the file recovery video.
My only problem is that unlike the INTRUDER video or AUGUSTUS or the Dibble TCAM video, I'm not too sure if I should keep the AE software media player section outlines still (like basically all the other ones I have done) — even the Dibble TCAM is a bit 50/50, whether i should update them to not have the box
or if I should just have it where it's only what we see... just unglitched so it's not far too right than it should be. Like in the video itself.

My other little issue is the audio visualization section of INTRUDER, because it has the text that keeps scrolling down, and also the earthquake/weather/human-influence tick-box/checkbox thing.
I'm not too sure if I should JUST keep what I have with the TXT file, or if I should make a really long PNG as well that is the normal left-to-right width but just extremely long — scroll-length long.
Of course, it just won't be in line with the resolution/aspect ratio as everything else
Thus won't keep the same style of the box that every other picture and every other slide has.
But it should be fine anyways

I'm going to try it out over the next few days and do my best with it.

honestly i think it is fine if i keep the AE Software Media Player box

it ain't really important, besides just having a proper 'higher res' recreation on hand to show peoples

if I had to guess this looks like atop the cliff looking over delta

or its part of the sheer cliffs from the map size decrease

[fast forge]

yes, the southernmost section of that cliff line

It was just open and flat with somewhat straight lines
The fog obscures a bit

[fast forge]

I understand what you mean, having done some map editing in unity in the past

[torn monolith]

tbh i like how much ambiance the fog is giving

[fast forge]

It's just a slip of the tool or happenstance, and then you're like "hmmm but maybe..."

tbh Minecraft too, when I rarely play that lol

[languid escarp]

Me too man that fog is looking sooo nice

[acoustic osprey]

🙏 thank you

[spiral wasp]

The fog is amazing, it's so creepy the way it spills over everything like a fog machine. Plus the new fog for Troodon venom. My little Troodon mind is going crazy lol I can't wait till ht is all completed. I'm gonna murder so many carnos

[spiral wasp]

Anyways, did anyone ever check this? I tried it on evrima but nothing, as I assumed

[acoustic osprey]

have not been able to recently

but i might after my lesson, if i remember

[nimble fractal]

Let me guess, top left part of the map?

Ah, deltas

I wandered around the top left to right sides of the map, that was quite... unpleasant experience. Went there to check if some hidden locations were added

[fast forge]

Nah, just cliffs, paths, and that one pond near the highlands sanc up there

[pseudo fable]

Ye. If you aren't doing a console background and loading a file, you don't need it to be there.

However, there's also no reason your file couldn't just suddenly fullscreen anyway so.

Has Anyone Found anything in the Corrupted sections of The New Video?

[acoustic osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-alec-guinness-obi-wan-kenobi-serious-think-gif-5199304

i'll take that into consideration
||i think i'll do a few versions and see which ever looks nicer, hmm||

[pseudo fable]

Just remember that if it's a video through another screen with low quality you have to double down on the audio/video quality being that much worse.

[acoustic osprey]

ah true!

can't forget the crt corruption!

we're also yet to be able to find the thing in the loading screen as well
i think we went all insane that day trying to find it

Got us putting numbers into every screen and panel lol

[crystal cairn]

oh about this. I noticed something yesterday, let me update and check it out. basically though, I was idling on the main menu and noticed the beeps that play on the character select screen also play at random on the main menu time to time

now, if we were able to make the beeps make the exact sound we want I would say we should try to copy that string of sounds that plays. but pretty sure the manual beeps are random correct

[acoustic osprey]

yeah, they seem random

some could be translated to morse
but most are very sporadic

[crystal cairn]

what does Don mean by "you have the monkey's paw"?

did you strike a deal with him back in the Darkclaw days that you are saving for a rainy day?

[acoustic osprey]

(all at the same time)!!!

[unborn knot]

Yall still on the beeps?

[crystal cairn]

yeah that is nonsensical

[acoustic osprey]

just sounds like a weird glerpping of boops

although
putting them together is hard

i need to actually look at the normal 'line' and see if they repeat or if the beeps/boops are RNG

[pseudo fable]

https://tenor.com/dIeNnH2Jzsp.gif

[acoustic osprey]

if they're RNG, they cannot be put together (imo)
if they're in order, then maybe.... something....

[crystal cairn]

the ones on the main menu are NOT rng I think

I need to sit and listen for a bit because they don't play all the time

let me finish my genshin dailies

[acoustic osprey]

definitely need to make a long recording of it mmm

[unborn knot]

Is it the evrima mneu that has clues or the HT?

[acoustic osprey]

don't think it is Evrima

[unborn knot]

Shhh lets let the boss answer

[acoustic osprey]

lol

[languid escarp]

Hang on u mean the BEEPS are SENTIENT

[acoustic osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/jim-carrey-alive-gif-11205409

[spiral wasp]

isn't there a way to convert sound into a picture? I know lore is sometimes hidden that way in other games

[acoustic osprey]

spectrograms

[spiral wasp]

yes that lol

couldn't remember the name

[acoustic osprey]

not true pictures
but transforming the frequencies into a vertical projection

[unborn knot]

Could the beeps be tap code or semephore code?

[crystal cairn]

also you avoided my question, don't think I didn't notice.

[acoustic osprey]

i used spectrograms (although not like how you described) to see if we could uncover more of the morse code human track

the track that would always play in U4 when you go to the radio tower

(it was mostly just to make sure we were getting the right morse code out of it)

[unborn knot]

The radio tower plays the same code as the menu in HT?

[languid escarp]

Omggg I forgot about that noise at that tower

[acoustic osprey]

no

there was a music track that has morse in it
always played at the radio tower

don't think that track plays anymore, i believe

human areas don't have activated music tracks now

[unborn knot]

ok...

[acoustic osprey]

yeah

[unborn knot]

My head hurts im taking a break ✌️

[acoustic osprey]

no worries

[spiral wasp]

did you try this with the beeps all put together?

[acoustic osprey]

i should!

[spiral wasp]

or each individual set of them

[acoustic osprey]

some of the beeps are actually repeated but in different pitches
which is unlike standard morse, but doesn't mean it can't be morse per se

[crystal cairn]

yeah all the beep boops that you can play in the character select also play in my right side headphone off the main menu on occasion

those beep boops had to be specifically manually added as single things to the character menu

they must serve some meaning

[spiral wasp]

yeah I've been sitting here listening to them. I don't remember if they were present on evrima or not, I never paid attention

[crystal cairn]

I am pretty sure they were

but now we have that same string of beeps, broken into sections and added as single sounds. why?

[acoustic osprey]

oh interesting, i don't know why i have not noticed

[crystal cairn]

are you hearing them now?

[spiral wasp]

they're pretty quiet at times

[crystal cairn]

also, for what it's worth. despite the waterfall sounds I don't think they play on the skin creator menu. they were SPECIFICALLY added to character select

[acoustic osprey]

(I hope i have not been playing the isle in mono)

[crystal cairn]

yeah I think all are playing in my right ear

[acoustic osprey]

they actually play in the skin creator!

[crystal cairn]

there's some other sounds in the left but not our particular trackable beep boops

[crystal cairn]

oh okay waterfall WOOOOSH I can't tell

[spiral wasp]

I've heard a couple in the left ear

[acoustic osprey]

oh yeah, it is painful to hear
but i had a bug where they (the waterfall sounds) stopped playing and i could hear the boops on skin creator

[spiral wasp]

but mostly right

[spiral wasp]

if you turn off 3D background the waterfall sounds stop

[acoustic osprey]

oh true

[acoustic osprey]

it seems, for me, that only the main menu plays in right (some in mono/center)

and the character select being all mono

is this inverse for you?

[crystal cairn]

same for me

[acoustic osprey]

oh i think i misread

i thought you meant character select

yay

[crystal cairn]

what does it mean!

Actually really funny but oddly informative video on SALT

kinda touches the point of

Why/How is SALT still alive by the time DUKE is an adult

i presume just 'not choosing' to succumb to eternal sleep
or that trikes grow faster in-lore

nothing crazy
but something interesting to think about

[fast forge]

It just hasn't entombed

[acoustic osprey]

can it be observed as an elder in the final frames

or does it still look like an adult

[languid escarp]

💀 xDD I canootttt w the nfl theme

[acoustic osprey]

lol

[tranquil flume]

What the hell did i just watch?? 🤣

[acoustic osprey]

the isle lore!!!

[spiral wasp]

Maybe this is a bit far fetched, but maybe salt licks are one of the things that will help with de-aging? Or was that only a specific plant(s)?

Not sure why salt would help with that though.

[tawdry lily]

It could be a replicated version. Or it learned how to de-age.

Or simply it has a really bad growth rate, because it keeps licking salt rock and draining nutrients.

[acoustic osprey]

I can imagine that lol

[snow jasper]

YAY

[merry zodiac]

I guess Salt didnt get enough diet to achieve prime with all that salt eating

[merry zodiac]

Oh, you already pointed this out damn

[acoustic osprey]

Lol

[hexed forge]

I’m 90% sure canonically speaking dinosaurs don’t decide when to “entomb” (If it even happens with every specimen)

I believe it’s more of a natural age process until they die of old age like it was planned for elders awhile ago. Rather than what we got in the game right now where you decide when it’s time for you to go. (Much better for gameplay)

Side note, it’s probably because SALT has a horrible growth rate due to its salt licking tendencies

Or Intruder and the trike video just dont have that much of a time gap

Seeing as how a part of Intruder is corrupted into the trike video..

[merry zodiac]

They meet Salt at water access where he originally resided, possibly he joined the herd to stay safe from Intruder who was in the area at that time period (Possibly following the Trike herds migratory patterns) . He was already at least big sub by then, possibly aready mated as we see a female stego with 2 offspring one with a pink hue. He only stayed with them in the northern areas, why did he travel all the way to delta (possibly even swamp) if he doesn’t generally leave his territory

[hexed forge]

SALT was in the delta?

Also I’m certain the video would’ve mentioned those young stegos being SALTs offspring

So ima just rule that out

Plus SALT shows up on the opposite sides of the lake in the two videos.

Running in the same direction tho, west.

So I think it’s likely that there’s at least some sort of jump in time between the intruder video and trike. Just not big of a time jump for it to not be mashed up together with the trike video

[acoustic osprey]

at the very end

[hexed forge]

hm

[acoustic osprey]

to note though
INTRUDER vid notes SALT goes to various zones

in regards to 'leaving area' or not

[fast forge]

It didn't even mention that Duke was Atlas' offspring

The young stegos could have been Salt's kids

I think they just leave out unimportant details

[acoustic osprey]

noting SALTS close proximity with the other stegs in the INTRUDER vid

its definitely not impossible that they're offspring or related or some sort of herd

[acoustic osprey]

this as well

[merry zodiac]

For Intruder video the important part was Salt’s anomalous behaviour of moving away

[acoustic osprey]

not to undermine, but i doubt Don really cared about offspring details or herd details for SALT anyways

[hexed forge]

yay

[acoustic osprey]

yea
well specifically the stimulus causing atypical defensive behaviors
basically proper panic SALT

i wouldn't say purely anomalous, if anything
if that makes sense

[merry zodiac]

Yea, who cares if he has kids if his panic is what is interesting

[acoustic osprey]

but when SALT injection lore video

[merry zodiac]

I mean anomalous by not an everyday occurance, the vid said this was what prompted the investigazion

[merry zodiac]

Maybe in the new patch video

[hexed forge]

Would be something along the lines of SALT’s Skin turning to pink the more salt it licks

[merry zodiac]

Maybe when palettes will be unlocked with achievements

[acoustic osprey]

(would be cool to release in tandem in a specialised update, in a hopeful state in the future)

[hexed forge]

We are expecting wayy too many videos we already got two

[acoustic osprey]

like if we could get more themed updates once Evrima is main branch
would be cool

[merry zodiac]

Yea 2 lore ones

Pain hungers isnt a lore vid for instance

Its for avarage joe isle player

[acoustic osprey]

but its less cool if not lore video

[acoustic osprey]

Don admits making the lore vids are more enjoyable, let the people have the cooler content!!

[merry zodiac]

But both is important in my opinion hand in hand

[acoustic osprey]

(ultimately, i always prefer if the artists makes what they want over adhering to certain hordes of voices)

[merry zodiac]

Yes

[acoustic osprey]

i do agree, trailers are nice generally

but preferable once Evrima is proper out, in my opinion, as main branch

they get the real view numbers / ad numbers

[merry zodiac]

https://tenor.com/view/winterz-soon-gif-19096204

I wonder what the plan is, making all dinos, finishing the map, getting to strains, addig humans, what will be the point Don decides it is time (or all of the above)

[pine rose]

we already know evrima being the main branch should be the plan once this HT is live. kissen reconfirmed it recently

[dire mauve]

i mean the cheaters are a real issue

[merry zodiac]

Good to know didnt see that

[ornate comet]

Get ready for a horde of new players making horrible general feedback posts lol

[lethal moat]

Oh really?

[strong slate]

Yes kissen said once allo and rex come to live their plan is to make it the main branch

like some sort of reference or even a reincarnated sort of Archimedean character

i have nothing really else to say
he is less mythology and more just real life smart fella

[formal mural]

hmm

[acoustic osprey]

quite so

[void mist]

What will happen if strains are added? Like could you die of old age as a strain

[hexed forge]

Who knows
It's far down the line

Hm

When the old guy of the show is right about the company being evil but no one believes him

[muted reef]

I wonder when the rest of the UI is gonna get touched up cause it's still hella unfinished

[lethal moat]

I wonder what part of neuros with intelligence and electricity necessitates their appearance

[acoustic osprey]

tiny bits from the sound of dblog

replay filters (hopefully being unionised)

and hopefully a boot up

[merry zodiac]

Imagine being next to neuros and you cant open your ui and don’t see your food/stam/water

[muted reef]

i'm not sure but I feel like the earth we're on in gateway is literally in a E type galaxy. Theres no center lines or anything.

[acoustic osprey]

yeah

skybox isn't theirs
so it might not be the best to go off sadly

[muted reef]

I wouldn't mind a cooler looking skybox

[acoustic osprey]

we had one in recode 🙁

spero specifically

https://tenor.com/view/those-went-bye-bye-steve-harrington-joe-keery-stranger-things-theyre-gone-gif-25960326

[fast forge]

It's fun to compare

[acoustic osprey]

quite so

i think the file digits are certainly weird
couldn't get the Dibble one but it is good to compare against each other now that we have two to go off

i am curious, i believe they might have changed how they're doing the Dino version numbers as well
Or the Dibble and AUGUSTUS videos were a lot 'earlier' in-lore

i would not be surprised if Don redid it a bit to be more inline, when he was doing the timeline doc

Saying that, i would love to redo every video we've gotten with proper lore (in the long future) to have everything seemingly in unison

To the best of our ability to do so

it would be pretty useless. But having things being a bit more inline, for things made pre-the timeline book is always nice

[fast forge]

After "ARCHIVE (7)" there is a series of digits, what I assume are some kind of designation within Archive 7
It's interesting to note that those digits are higher for the trike video than the dibble video, which suggests a later entry

Add in the fact that the triceratops version number is much higher, yeah I think we can conjecture that the dibble video is older

OL-TM
OL-GH

[fast forge]

Wonder what those mean

[fast forge]

The "9921" staying the same, despite the alphanumerics surrounding it having changed

Also the "AE 16371" in the bottom left is conserved

<@&933486433342222376>

ty

[fallen estuary]

They grow up so fast

[acoustic osprey]

oh true yes

because it is part of the file number, thus needing important summarised categorisations to detail the file name

I could honestly imagine a "9921" being indexed for post-injection evaluations

don't know the best term for word for it
but i think indexed makes the most sense in this case

[fast forge]

this tracks

[acoustic osprey]

mmm

OL could be some sort of broad section of Archive 7
but, those digits and stuff are all a bit weird

i wonder if there is an irl system that is alike
I suppose it comes down to the company or the drives itself (for storage)

[acoustic osprey]

do they have an example as well?

[fast forge]

https://lib.hoover.mcdaniel.edu/archives/research/citing

[acoustic osprey]

seems to be more like an actual citation style of MLA then proper archival reference

but this #isle-lore-theories message
specifically B1418861.00

kinda reminds me of the reference with this "MS/2009.4"
and that be the 'collection number'

i don't believe AE would be going for proper archival preservation though with their naming schemes, in my opinion
At least not stuff being made for the deliberate idea of archival - as if going to a school and being paid to sort everything out in an archival method

Likely just standard library-esque storage

but even then
bit 50/50 to say
Because i have no idea what truly happens with archival systems
But i do know that my old high school had to hire someone and was put into a collection
Which i believe to be less practical for something like this (AE)

but no know

[languid escarp]

Yo it’s so much more in depth than I realized

[acoustic osprey]

potentially

[pseudo fable]

also i might be pulling the monkeys paw too much
but are you potentially able to check our DMs

i swear these were named
but wow memory lane

[acoustic osprey]

||I think the most important thing is if you enjoy it, that being if the artist enjoys his work, then that can be the best feeling in the world. The most satisfaction out of it.||

of course, i suppose its a pretty bad philosophy most of the time for money

but Isle doesn't really need to care about that when its main goal is the game first, unlike other games like Fnaf that aim for storytelling and ARG-esque 'lore'

i really do appreciate, though, that we have what we have in Isle (even if its the last thing to be worried about on the production line)

[snow jasper]

that looks like the same lighting used in the early renders for troodon & compy

[acoustic osprey]

yeah
specificially compy at least

those were on Spero

[languid escarp]

But JP route = lamez

[tranquil flume]

I like it. Especially with the recent vids it almost reminds me of the backrooms. Just a place where you try and make sense of the surroundings but are left in mystery wondering what is just beyond comprehension. Honestly would love to see more game trail horror/mystery tapes

[acoustic osprey]

honestly, i enjoy each of the lore vids being a bit unique from each other

[snow jasper]

i remember stego having light shine through its plates as well with that lighting

@acoustic osprey WAKE UP

[acoustic osprey]

hi

[pine rose]

donshmi is shwoing something maybe lore related on stream

[quartz sundial]

^

[fast forge]

How do we get there

[leaden hound]

guys code red we need to get into the mainframe

[fast forge]

what did he push

[acoustic osprey]

typing in the typing

in loading screen

[crystal cairn]

okay so whats the commands to bring up a pw string?

[acoustic osprey]

@hexed forge

[acoustic osprey]

we don't know

[crystal cairn]

that's what we gotta figure out

[acoustic osprey]

he types in something
then he types in a password

[crystal cairn]

and then the pw I guess

[brittle verge]

It's ok guys, just gotta spam all keys while loading

[crystal cairn]

can we count the click clacks for each?

hopefully someone got a recording

[acoustic osprey]

not me sorry

[crystal cairn]

@lethal moat ?

[pine rose]

guys this is just like the trailcam

now we must all do random thingies to find how to do that

[acoustic osprey]

yeah Lore Hunt 2 proper

[crystal cairn]

To bring up the BIOS when your computer loads, the fastest way is to
restart and repeatedly tap common keys like DEL, F2, F10, or F12

[pine rose]

GOOD POINT

[snow jasper]

https://tenor.com/view/how-did-we-get-here-minecraft-achievement-advancement-gif-25679370

[crystal cairn]

can try that when it's loading up. as for password not sure

need to know the amount of clicks clacks

[pine rose]

ill try it

[fast forge]

Is it just booting to bios instead of the os?

[crystal cairn]

but bringing up the BIOS menu makes sense for the load screen

[quartz sundial]

im more excited about lore now than i have been in a while lol

[acoustic osprey]

BIOS from the loading screen

[fast forge]

The loading screen while joining a server, right?

[acoustic osprey]

via a password
via an unknown command

[acoustic osprey]

yeah

[quartz sundial]

do we just keyboard mash and hope the screen comes up lol

[crystal cairn]

try the string I posted above

[acoustic osprey]

pretty much it seems

[quartz sundial]

someones gonna say "try alt f4" i know it

[pine rose]

have you tried alt f4?

[quartz sundial]

is this on HT or evrima or an unreleased patch

[acoustic osprey]

lol

[crystal cairn]

HT

[pine rose]

it was on ht

[acoustic osprey]

HT because UI
also the typing felt like a bit more then 2

but still
unsure

[leaden hound]

I GOT IT IG GOT IT

TYPE APOLLO

[snow jasper]

whats happening

[leaden hound]

now we just need to figure out password

[brittle verge]

Dondi showed this on stream @snow jasper

[snow jasper]

its fake

[fading moat]

I swear I have tried it before I must have misspelled it 😭

[leaden hound]

look

[brittle verge]

Wdym it's fake

[snow jasper]

im surrounded by fakers

[fading moat]

I just did it and it worked

idk what the password is tho

[brittle verge]

Are you guys being serious rn?

[acoustic osprey]

yeah that works

[lethal moat]

apollo works

[quartz sundial]

it aint workin for me

[leaden hound]

im so sigma

[crystal cairn]

good work dingel!

[quartz sundial]

thank u dongle

[fast forge]

works for me too

[brittle verge]

It was 4 digits, right?

[leaden hound]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1217984342463090719/1426261054886907924/caption.gif

[fading moat]

is the password just apollo again?

[glacial fiber]

HALP

[acoustic osprey]

seemed like it

[quartz sundial]

"dino" surely

[crystal cairn]

.net

ISLE

[brittle verge]

Any chance it was 5 digits and activated instantly on the fifth one?

[acoustic osprey]

hmm

[leaden hound]

the method is stay on an old version of HT so you dont actually go into the server and can try again quickly

[pine rose]

mines not working 🙁

[quartz sundial]

same

[acoustic osprey]

the Qa server

[acoustic osprey]

i haven't updated (from the update 15 mins back)
maybe it was removed

[barren ruin]

lore hype this early in the morning, Christmas came early

[fading moat]

I think if you click anything wrong during loading it stops working

[quartz sundial]

it wasnt working for me on the old HT version, downloading the most recent HT patch now

[pine rose]

got it

[brittle verge]

I'm assuming you guys already tried all the named guys for replication?

[acoustic osprey]

done lore and bios

caps no caps etc

[quartz sundial]

i wonder if theres a list of known lore-related terms we could try, like character names, etc

[fading moat]

is it possible everybody has a different password

[acoustic osprey]

SALT ?

[brittle verge]

That would be downright evil

[quartz sundial]

oh nice it worked

now im in the same boat as others lol

[leaden hound]

it wont even let me type in it, crazy qte

[lethal moat]

You need to click on it

[quartz sundial]

the lore demands quick hands

[acoustic osprey]

quite so

(try qa server)

[fast forge]

Maybe use the name JC346?
From the old roadmap vid?

[acoustic osprey]

hmmm
(I can't atm but we shall try)

[lethal moat]

I tried Nova

[acoustic osprey]

5 or 4 digits basically

[quartz sundial]

not JC346

[acoustic osprey]

caution about caps for password as well

[quartz sundial]

o true

[crystal cairn]

[acoustic osprey]

oh

[brittle verge]

OMNI?

[pine rose]

it would be important to lore wouldnt it?

[acoustic osprey]

probably

[pine rose]

so

couldnt we go through things that have passwords or are significant to evrimas lore and are 4-5 letters and type it in

[brittle verge]

Probably stupid, but what if?

[acoustic osprey]

hmm

one would assume something more lore though

[brittle verge]

Probably, yeah

[crystal cairn]

"lore"

[acoustic osprey]

tried

[quartz sundial]

"pass"

[acoustic osprey]

also tried link

[quartz sundial]

this is fun tho! little project for us all to work on

[acoustic osprey]

ye

oh the lore potentials for the BIOS is actually sick though

rather then having just EXTRAS

[brittle verge]

The fact you guys actually got that it was Apollo so fast is scary

[acoustic osprey]

lol

[quartz sundial]

im assuming light already tried Tartarus

[leaden hound]

idk i just remembered hearing 6 clacks and i thought of words with 6 letters although i coudlve been off with the clacks

[acoustic osprey]

no

only doing 4 to 5 digits

[quartz sundial]

oh true

[fading moat]

I tried apollo in that screen like a week ago but I must have mistyped it Kind of upset ngl I could have been the one to find it

[lethal moat]

You gotta get it first try

[acoustic osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/we-were-this-close-krennic-orson-krennic-star-wars-rogue-one-gif-26204033

[brittle verge]

It was already known?

[fading moat]

We knew it was something in that loading screen but no not the password thing

I was just trying things

[acoustic osprey]

^

[brittle verge]

I see

[quartz sundial]

time to pore over the lore doc for 5-letter terms

[lethal moat]

Ye

[crystal cairn]

don is consulting the glossary for dinos he has named

hopefully his mic does not cut out saying said names

[acoustic osprey]

ooo

[brittle verge]

Yup

[acoustic osprey]

please catch some of them !

[brittle verge]

SALT, ATLAS

Who else Dondi

[crystal cairn]

second one possibly cut out ofc

beipi character

[fast forge]

a named beipi?

[brittle verge]

The what Beppleman?

[crystal cairn]

MIC CUT OUT "go into the ---"

[fast forge]

yeahhhh

[cyan schooner]

password is obviously spero

[acoustic osprey]

lol

[fast forge]

I tried a bunch of words that didn't work:
Apollo
Athena
Zeus
Hades
Tartarus
Soul
Psyche
9921
...I forget the rest

[acoustic osprey]

2172...

[lethal moat]

GUTS
EIPS

[fast forge]

I feel like it would be something esoteric
The greek word for body or something

(which is "soma" btw, but I didn't try it)

[acoustic osprey]

hmm

[crystal cairn]

I'll sleep on it

[lethal moat]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/16mHgkWnUBLU0FiCWvkwO4QsbPzKlrw54Va3pqNsscvE/edit?tab=t.0

[quartz sundial]

john cake lol

[acoustic osprey]

oh true yes

[acoustic osprey]

put words in the bank then cross out if not working!^^

[quartz sundial]

how do i cross out? i dont see the option next to the bold/italic/underline options

[acoustic osprey]

alt shift 5

[crystal cairn]

rumple trolling don. looks like they just made a doc for passwords tried

[acoustic osprey]

i tried to format the doc so it should be good

everything necessary on it for finding

[crystal cairn]

the password could be 3 letters if one was him hitting shift/caps before the letter

[acoustic osprey]

mm true

[quartz sundial]

didnt it show dots for each letter in the password tho?

so we should be able to count them and see how many letters it is

[acoustic osprey]

wait i didn't read
yes

[lethal moat]

Do we have video of 4 dots?

[acoustic osprey]

no sadly
only eye witness

[quartz sundial]

my only worry is what if its 5 dots but we didnt see the 5th cuz the password screen automatically unlocked on the 5th button press

[crystal cairn]

amarok may have made the terminal

[quartz sundial]

i wish we could go back and watch how many buttons it was :(

[leaden hound]

im positive its 5+ characters, just recalling from memory tho

[crystal cairn]

try SAM all caps

[leaden hound]

didnt work

[crystal cairn]

try Amarok/Anorak/Zanorak

one of amarok's pen names is "Anorak" and in case you dont know who that is

@edgy python mention

[fast forge]

that's silly

[snow jasper]

i fell asleep mid stream, i remember dondi talking about deinocheirus and then i kept dipping and put of consciousness

[crystal cairn]

"adam"

omg surely that is it

[strong slate]

Have we tried Salt yet

[acoustic osprey]

don't think so

[crystal cairn]

ALAN

not adam, sorry idk people's real names

[lethal moat]

WE ARE SO FUCKED

[crystal cairn]

trying to download the patch because this has to be it

[acoustic osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-i-want-you-to-have-this-alan-partridge-boss-smiling-friends-smiling-friends-gif-17561997789451697350

[strong slate]

so you just type in apollo whilst it loads to access the password bar or how does it work

[acoustic osprey]

yes

[lethal moat]

On the connecting screen, type apollo

[strong slate]

Gotcha

[ionic fog]

has anyone tried KCD2

as the password of course

[acoustic osprey]

why lol

https://tenor.com/view/giantmilkdud-gif-25617534

[ionic fog]

🫵 Dondi Lore, AE developed the hit game kcd

[acoustic osprey]

woah

[crystal cairn]

damn. my password guess was so creative but doesnt seem to be working

[strong slate]

I find myself stuck now in the connection screen hahah

[quartz sundial]

fools. Fools! now AE is onto us

[civic pollen]

[quartz sundial]

what are we missing lorebros 😭

[leaden hound]

the power of friendship

[acoustic osprey]

hmm

i kinda assumed it to be lore
but no

[crystal cairn]

I mean the fact you guessed apollo

could it be related to that

[acoustic osprey]

hmmmm

damn internet taking 12 years to update isle and i have to leave in a bit
yay

[leaden hound]

maybe its like AEsomething

[acoustic osprey]

AEConnect?

AELink?
AELogin?

Login?

[leaden hound]

just tried none worked

[acoustic osprey]

hmm

[quartz sundial]

surely it has to be a word we know of

[acoustic osprey]

( make sure with and without caps )

[quartz sundial]

like how the first code was apollo

[acoustic osprey]

tried Dean?

oldest known lore dino name

[leaden hound]

no work

[acoustic osprey]

hmm

[ionic fog]

isnt is a 4 letter word? AE--

[acoustic osprey]

should be a 4 letter

[ionic fog]

what are other Lore-y things that can be shortened down to 4 letters, ERNT (errant?)

[acoustic osprey]

i saw 4 but it could be 5 or a VERY QUICK 6

could be a shortened lore term, true

[quartz sundial]

don is a fast typer

[acoustic osprey]

this is so

[ionic fog]

Gemini if 6 lol

[quartz sundial]

not so

[ionic fog]

not a space nerd then :( common Apollo L

[acoustic osprey]

maybe

poultry riots

tried a bunch of greek mythos characters with 4 digits
nothing 🙁

[civic pollen]

:(

[acoustic osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/itysl-i-think-you-should-leave-i-think-you-should-leave-gif-summer-loving-tim-robinson-gif-13786736374193560850

[acoustic osprey]

^put this into the lore doc as well

i presume it is something more lore-related and not for the password

but i wonder if it saying "please enter your password ..." has any meaning?

probably not

but interesting

[civic pollen]

"My Password"

[acoustic osprey]

i tried copying the phrase into it lol

but not my password

[civic pollen]

dang xD

[acoustic osprey]

should i give the isle my credit card number !!

https://tenor.com/view/lat-cat-spinning-cat-spin-spinning-gif-9888403034370799526

[civic pollen]

surely
(this is a joke)

[acoustic osprey]

this'll likely be the case of someone finding it when i awake
but oh well

i love the idea of the terminal as a hidden lore panel

[strong slate]

I will have to go to bed I see you on the other side lore soilders

[acoustic osprey]

🫡

[civic pollen]

[analog halo]

Is there a way to stay in that screen with the Password or is it always connecting you to the server after a few seconds?

[lethal moat]

I always get disconnected

[analog halo]

huh, I always get into the server, I have like a few seconds to put in characters.

then i have to log out and back in to do it again

Back in the days when we had another Lore Peak, Khorne (some guy from the community) also got into the Console and had a dedicated passowrd to his name

that was created

[lethal moat]

Ye, I'm thinking it's something custom

Or starting to think that

Regardless, this is the first time I've been excited for lore in months

[analog halo]

just like in the novel "The Lost world" where Arby logs into Sornas Network system

[pine rose]

what if

the password is on the deathscreen

[lethal moat]

Or the tab menu

That's a good idea

[pine rose]

ya

[granite mist]

Disconnect from internet when joining the server. You can stay on the password screen.

[analog halo]

Thanks

[acoustic osprey]

Nothing
Qa server might be longer though

I've being doing it via that

[acoustic osprey]

Best not to talk about him

[lethal moat]

The hell is Harvest Base

[acoustic osprey]

Although him and one other did do so

[acoustic osprey]

From stream?

[lethal moat]

death screen

[acoustic osprey]

Oh

[analog halo]

In JP Lore "Harvest base" is Sorna, the island where the INGEN company grew the dinos before shipping them to Nublar to show to the tourists

[acoustic osprey]

Probably an old version of Tomb maybe

In this context

[civic pollen]

long shot but would someone try 88452Cc

[acoustic osprey]

* * * * * * *

[acoustic osprey]

What's this from

[lethal moat]

Nothin

[civic pollen]

a box on a console in game

[acoustic osprey]

I see

[acoustic osprey]

I kind of think maybe it is actually some from death screen

Seeing as they rehashed it

It is really the only piece of in game 'lore'

And if they put it back in for ui overhaul
There might be some importance

[lethal moat]

I think it's something individual to each person tbh

[analog halo]

Same

[acoustic osprey]

True

[analog halo]

But the death screen is the same for everyone

no indiviual numbers

[civic pollen]

has anyone tried their steam name?

[acoustic osprey]

I tried putting my user in earlier
My username specifically

[lethal moat]

I tried my steam name and my steamID

[acoustic osprey]

Nothing
Someone also put id64 as well

Oh you did that yay

[acoustic osprey]

Would have been cool though

[quartz sundial]

this is gonna eat at me

[civic pollen]

same

[lethal moat]

I'm devoting my day tomorrow to it since I don't have anything going on

[tranquil flume]

https://tenor.com/view/raptor-alan-jp3-gif-9139616

Mmmm it wouldnt be a skin code would it?

[analog halo]

This is the Password issued to Arby in the JP Novel: VIG/&*849/

not workin, obvsly

[nimble fractal]

We are so WELL FED

[tranquil flume]

How ironic would it be if the password was EVRIMA

[quartz sundial]

https://tenor.com/view/df-he-dont-gaf-me-when-i-blue-jelly-blob-gif-4578958781231696766

surely not

i must try....

[tranquil flume]

Someone want to try?? 😂😂

[analog halo]

Nope

not workin

[quartz sundial]

ty circ

[tranquil flume]

LEGACY

[quartz sundial]

prog

[analog halo]

why would it be that ^^

[tranquil flume]

Maybe not

[quartz sundial]

maybe AE was feelin quirky 😊

[analog halo]

Nope

What about these lore documents that were riped up, do they have codes of 7 chracters in them?

these documents

released a while ago

[analog halo]

those excatly

[tranquil flume]

OLYMPUS was tried?

[lethal moat]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/16mHgkWnUBLU0FiCWvkwO4QsbPzKlrw54Va3pqNsscvE/edit?tab=t.0

Yes

[tranquil flume]

I dont see it on there unless im missing it

[quartz sundial]

hard to see without using ctrl F

lol

[tranquil flume]

Yeaaah haha

[civic pollen]

it certainly wouldn't be Gateway

[acoustic osprey]

Ye true

Maybe we should do a spreadsheet rump

Or maybe I'll reformat the doc

Have a done and undone section

[merry zodiac]

Is there no hint

[tranquil flume]

Mmm in intruder external login is (OLYMPUS) so maybe it has to do with that project??

[acoustic osprey]

No haha

[merry zodiac]

Not found or there isnt one

[tranquil flume]

Maybe olympus is the username

[acoustic osprey]

Nothing given to us

[merry zodiac]

How many characters used in the lore videos

[acoustic osprey]

Besides being 4 digits for the password

[merry zodiac]

Oh

[acoustic osprey]

Although might have been 5 or 6
If Don typed really quickly

But there feels to be some sort of input lag so I doubt it was more then 5

[tranquil flume]

It’s not a date is it?

[acoustic osprey]

Not 2172

But do try potentially

2017 was a lore year in Legacy

[merry zodiac]

2015 for isle birthday 🎉

[quartz sundial]

is any of that lore canon anymore

[tranquil flume]

What was the month/day for the isle being created?

[acoustic osprey]

Who knows...

[quartz sundial]

dec 1 2015 iirc

[acoustic osprey]

We have legacy death screen back
So... maybe...

[tranquil flume]

Try day/month too

[ionic fog]

Has anyone tried Aurora, on account of dondi showing off Aurora Borealis over gateway

[acoustic osprey]

no

but that was because he was asked to show it again

[acoustic osprey]

oh my goodness, i pulled a string, but to no avail

GWF5 is not the answer
who could've guessed, but i had to try

[ionic fog]

Do any of the human structures have sticky notes inside the drawers, like, man I keep forgetting my password I need to write it down somewhere

[acoustic osprey]

well, nothing we presume is made by the devs
but.......

if we can walk into East Docks without passing through
then we should definitely have a look around

[blissful musk]

What's this about East Docks? (I'm very new to The Isle lore, however I'd love to get involved with it :) )

[merry zodiac]

What did the morsecode give? I can’t remember

[acoustic osprey]

just SOS (and b, technically)

[pine rose]

NEW THING

LIGHTCLAW FOUND ENW THING

[pine rose]

oh

full thing

[karmic matrix]

You found the password or is it something else?

[acoustic osprey]

no password yet

[pine rose]

something else
