Title: Hidden doors in the Veil?
Post by: blueskirt on July 31, 2009, 10:01:19 am

I don't know if this has been discussed before, when you swim on the east most side in the Open Waters area leading to the Veil, you can see on your minimap that there is a door located somewhere to your right, the same thing happen on the south most side of The Veil area where you find Li's submarine. Anyone here noticed these two hidden doors? Is there any way to reach them?

Here's a map of the area I'm talking about, the red dots are the doors:

 I went to investigate, but I can't see them. I have no idea what you are talking about. Sorry.

The only "doors" I know of in the veil area are the entrances to the Sun temple; the right one is on the left side of the east part of the veil that has the really big shark and the chimney on the right, and the area of the veil to the immediate west, with the second transport turtle. These doors are not on your map, though, but above that area.

Nah, here's what I'm talking about:

On the minimap, do you see the white circles the red arrows point at? I have no idea how to reach these two doors/exits, the first one is located somewhere to the right of the right-most wall in the Open Waters area leading to the Veil, the second one is located somewhere below the bottom-most wall in the area outside the sun temple.

Oh, that!
Those pathways are not hidden. They are nearby, but off the map. Off the map pointers appear on the edge of the mini map, in the direction where you can find them if you where to be able to travel in a straight line.

Yeah, I noticed those while searching for the last few treasures.  I poked around in the data files a bit, and determined that they're a relic of a development version of the game where there was a 4th Veil map.  The map itself was deleted, but Alec forgot to remove the warp points that connected to it.  So no, you can't get to them, and they don't go anywhere.
