| F.A.Q (TheSWAN) |
| "What is the difference between the Swan and TheSWAN?" |
| There is a Swan station and there is TheSWAN product that we created. We just write it like this to make it clear what we are talking about. |
|
| "Are there any cheats?" |
| Yes. There aren’t any cheats in the television series but many users like to push the button without having to wait 108 minutes. Because cheats are not part of the protocol that users are encouraged to follow, you will need to activate the cheats before they will work in the program. Edit TheSWAN's config.txt file, find where it says '&login=' and change it from 'false' to ‘true’. You may also find it helpful to change ‘&keyboard=’ from 'false' to ‘true’ so you can use the keyboard before the timer reads 004:00. Don’t forget to save your changes. Now run the program. Type “login = radzinsky” (without quotation marks), and press execute. Cheat codes should now be available. WARNING: Using cheats will affect your rank on ThePEARL Leaderboard. |
|
| "Where can I find a list of cheat codes?" |
| All the codes and commands you will need are all included in the Orientation help file that came with your download. |
|
| "The keyboard is not working!" |
| In the television series you cannot type anything using the keyboard until the timer reads 004:00. The same is true for TheSWAN program. If you want to use the keyboard and type before the timer reads 004:00, you will need to edit TheSWAN's config.txt file, find where it says '&keyboard=' and change it from 'false' to ‘true’. |
|
| "The timer is frozen stuck at 108!" |
| In the television series the numbers that display the seconds on the timer are fixed at :00 until the timer reaches 003:59. The same is true for TheSWAN program. Just wait 70 seconds, watch the timer and you will see the time decrease by one minute. |
|
| "When do lockdown's occur?" |
| TheSWAN is more of a simulator then a game so you won't get a lockdown every 5 minutes. There are three types of lockdown in TheSWAN: (1) It wasn't explained how a lockdown is triggered so we have assumed it is automatic. There was one lockdown in the series before the hatch exploded/imploded so the first lockdown in TheSWAN occurs on the same day that the Oceanic 815 survivors (i.e Locke and Ben) experience it (on day 61), so you would have to push the button over 800 times before experiencing a lockdown. This will be logged on ThePEARL Leaderboard. Most users don't want to wait 1464 hours for this to happen so this is where the cheats come in: (2) Before the timer reads 050:00 use the "start lockdown" command. Wait 2 or 3 minutes and when the timer reads 047:00(ish) the lockdown will begin. This will be logged as a cheat on ThePEARL Leaderboard! If you type "start lockdown" after 050:00 then the lockdown will occur after the next time you push the button. (3) This isn't really a lockdown but you can fake it by using the "set blastdoors =" command. This is similar to Desmond touching two wires together and doesn't affect ThePEARL leaderboard. Remember: You must activate cheats by entering "login = radzinsky" before you can enter any cheat codes!! |
