Arabian Nights - two questions

[Gzegzolka]

First - is it possible to finish first level and get 100%? I collect all gems and all secrets I know (hidden cells, one fake wall near prisoner, hidden room in long fall down).

Second - what are the differences if You choose in game options different detail settings. I have always play it on high and when I try to switch it to low I did not noticed any difference, but it was long time ago.

I think with low details there are no dry leaves when you run along the trees.

[Gzegzolka]

Bump.

Anybody got 100% on first stage?

[Reynolds]

can't recall my results. Played many years ago. For the first read I thought you completed everything and yet stuck on the level... I never really disturbed myself to collect all stuf in any game, this wasn't esception :P

[Gzegzolka]

You see Reynolds, I have no problem with finishing this game, but I'm curious.

Arabian Nights was created in year 1993, now we have 2017, that's give us 24 years for secret that is still undiscovered. Isn't that interesting? The fact that there is still something to see. Is there anybody who finish that game with 100%?

I was watching Youtube longplays and most players got 60% to 80% complete of that level. Everybody miss "secret room in secret room" near room with three pots and lot of gems. Since this day I still do not figure out what that item do:

Maybe it's just a bug and there is no option to score 100% on first level. I have seen ripped map on HOL

Do any of the player guides published in Amiga mags provide any clues? For example:

Thank You for links, I have not think about checking them

... but those guiedes are also not complete.
None of them got my Magic Latern room (it's well visable on HOL level map).
Now I start to feel like I have discovered something that nobody before me, and still knowing that I have not 100% do not give me rest.

The magic lantern give an extra 5000 at score at the end of the level.

I've got myself 88% but no more...

[Shatterhand]

That's always something I wondered too. Never got 100% on 1st level either. I played this game a lot, finished it many time and also never managed to get 100% on 1st level, and this always bothered me too

And nah, I had found the Magic Lantern room back at the time too

[Gzegzolka]

My current score for first level is 92% , it seems like playing on hard give bit more score. I start to believe there is no more secrets rooms, it must be scooting system that I do not understood.

This is being played in our SuperLeague competition at the moment and we've hit the same 88% problem. I also thought I got 92% once because I think I had more health remaining. Would be good to find out if 'zero hits' equals 100%.

[Gzegzolka]

I have two solutions in my mind. First one - bit romantic - there is still one more secret room that nobody found. Second one - it's error in scoring system - maybe % of complete is count by floor titles You walk on.
I try to do no hit run of first stage and I'm sure it doesn't affect my % score.
