Thanx



I think that you do get the bow in the tower, but I'll check on it when I get back.  The Forbidden Forest?  Is that the US name of the forest dungeon?  I'll check on that for you too.

How do you open the Nintendo vault. Maybe my problem is I can't see the switch the guy is talking about,  can you see it from the island he's on. If so could you give me directions on where it is, his directions seem odd to me. Thanks for the help.

<Possible slight side-quest spoilers ahead>

Ahh thank you much, I was looking towards the Forbidden Forest. Now can someone help me with the pictograph side-quest. I'm supposed to take a picture of some girl sending an unwanted love letter through the mail. I think it's the girl sitting on the steps of Windfall Island but she never moves, and since time doesn't pass on the Island I don't know what to do. Any hints would be appreciated, and please tell me if I'm focusing on the wrong person. Thanks.

this is probably a very stupid question but I hafta ask it anyways. I am so very close to the end of the dragon roost island stage but I keep getting stuck on the part with the grappling hook where I need to swing east. it seems as tho link only wants to go straight with the grappling hook. how can I get him to swing sideways so I can get past this stage? thx.

pressing R lets you change directions of your swing.

Just so you know, I won't be able to help out with the pictograph stuff until I actually get a chance to play my US copy.  And I'm sorry I didn't have time to look up the questions from last night.

***Possible Spoiler***

I can't reach the crystal switch for the Nintendo Gallery. Everytime I fly by it, I just can't get into the little cave. It's as if there is a sheild around it because i flew nearly straight into it, yet i was rolled off to the side. Must I do something before i can get in (i just got the deku leaf).

I am in the tower that comes up. I have placed the first statue but can't figure out how to get the 2nd one out. Should I have the bow and arrow by now? It seems like I need it for opening some paths to move the statues. What to do?

It's in the private oasis.  You need to go back to Windfall and find out who has access to it.  -You may have to do some other things first, so just have fun with the people at Windfall.

You're going to have to tell me more detail about the rooms you need help in.  I can't remember exactly what to do from vague descriptions. --Although if I remember right, you get the bow and arrow during part of this section, but perhaps not as soon as you think.

I am at the part where you have to guide the statues to the middle room. I have gotten the 2nd wind song in there. Then there is the next statue to move. You have to use grappling hook in the first room because there is no middle floor. The 2nd room has a holographic like one-way stairway leading up to a platform. The first room has 2 regular statues, an eye on the right wall, a door which can't get to on the left, and a weighted switch on the far side of the room to open the gate to the door on left. I can't figure out how to get the 2nd special statue out to the middle area that all the hallways connect to.

Do you know how to take a picture of the person that is the most cowardly in the town? Just as soon as you get the picto box?

I've got a couple of camera-related questions; but I'll answer the previous question about the Pictograph apprentice side quest first. Good trade, right?

The one posting the love letters is the guy in the red pants/suspenders. You have to follow him during the day, to the mail box at the docks. Keep your distance, or he'll stop walking and look at you, until you move back. When he gets to the mailbox, the best place to get a picture of him, is on the inside of the archway there, opposite the docks. Get a full body shot of both the man and the box, and you've done it.

Now, onto my question. There's a guy sitting on a set of stairs, near the auction house in Windfall island. He wants a picture of his favorite thing - something perfectly round, and pale. The first thing I thought of was the moon, but that's not the answer. Anyone have any ideas?

Also, after finishing the pictographer assistant side quest, the pictographer asks me about creatures in the Forest Haven which give off light - something he needs to finish the DX Pictobox. I thought it might be those little particle things in the Haven, that have that little radius of light around them, but I can't seem to catch them in a bottle.

Any ideas of either of these questions would be much appreciated.

DT: I think once you get the DX camera, the guy who wants a picture of his favorite thing will accept the moon. If you see him at night he'll be gazing at it through a telescope and recomends you do the same. It has to be a ful moon also i think.

Isn't there a switch for Link to stand on while the statue moves through the room?
