Cadaver - Lv4 savestate or level skip needed

Dastardly · 16 January 2019, 20:43

Does anyone have a save state for the start of level 4 of Cadaver they could share? Or is there some other way I could skip to this level? I've just played through to the end of level 3 and when it attempts to load level 4 it crashes every time.

I may have some saves, yes. But are you sure your version isn't corrupt?

Dastardly · 16 January 2019, 21:35

@jotd It could be that my version has become corrupt. It’s the Galahad cracked adf. I tried using a different crack levels disc to try and get around it, but no luck.

If you have a save state that might work then that’s great!

the level disk is not protected. Program disk is. So on cracks, disk 2 is the same as originals. So maybe the savegame you have got corrupt, that's possible.

I can provide game saves, maybe, but only as files (whdload)...

Anything that works and gets me back to where I was is great! Thanks.

Did you manage to complete level 2 and 3 without help? If so: respect. the people who designed these levels are evil geniuses.

Dastardly · 17 January 2019, 16:20

Yes. I’ve got as far as level 4 before, years ago. This has been a fresh play through trying to get back to where I left off. The puzzles can be tricky, but I find them mostly to be logical.

I won’t use help to get past anything if I get stuck. I’m too stubborn

I completed level 1, then looked the solution for all levels, several times... and that was 25 years ago, when I had some spare time

But I love that game. I'll try to dig out a whdload install + level save on the weekend (work gets seriously in the way ATM)

Dastardly · 17 January 2019, 19:10

Yeah I started playing it in about 91 I think. A really great game.

Thanks jotd, no rush

whdload version in the zone. Load a new game use "4" to get to level 4

Dastardly · 17 January 2019, 23:16

Brillant! Thanks a lot jotd. That would have been so frustrating to not be able to carry on.

Back to it!

lucky you not having played the 2 last levels yet (and the payoff maybe)

I'll have to wait till I have Alzheimer's disease so I forget all the levels of Gods & Cadaver and play them again as they were new

Dastardly · 18 January 2019, 13:22

I have played a lot of level 4 of Cadaver back in the early 90s and can remember a lot of it, but I’ve never seen level 5. I remember getting stuck and not knowing what to do next. The level loops around and you end up in a room/corridor next to the starting room. It was around there I was stuck. I’m not sure if I missed something important maybe.

I did briefly have a look at the Payoff back then, but can’t remember that at all, so I’m looking forward to getting into that.

jotd · 18 January 2019, 20:59

Payoff only has 4 levels, but they're harder. Even level 1 is hard.

malko · 18 January 2019, 21:10

If you really are stuck... Not a walk-through, this, based on the Amiga version, can be of interest

jotd · 18 January 2019, 21:24

And the bad guy in usual suspect is Kyzer Sose. Ooops, spoilt it...

Hardly, that is said pretty much from the beginning of the movie

Dastardly · 18 January 2019, 21:33

If I get stuck in Cadaver then that’s where I’ll stay. Stuck forever!

gimbal that was a fake spoiler. And Kroah reverse engineering work is just the best I've ever seen (on the best games ever!)

malko · 18 January 2019, 21:46

And usual suspect is one of the best movie ever.
Did you manage to guess who is Kyzer Sose in this movie ? If so: respect. The script writer is an evil genius.
