Typically issues like these where some letter becomes lowercase is due to another mod (because of how the engine deals with Names). There was a sticker mod that did the same thing with "s", but I have no idea which mod would be breaking the letter "e"

At least I could just noclip to get through the bookshelf. I wish I didn't seemingly have to do that, but at least I could complete it almost entirely legit.

Alright, my bookshelf codes just don't seem to work. I've booted up the map twice now, and both times the code doesn't seem to work. Maybe it's because the code is input with mainly uppercase, while you can only input "e" in lowercase? I don't know what I'm missing otherwise.

Have you tried crawling under the piano? I recall the button positions are randomised, and one of those possible positions is under the piano

this stupid sitting room button dont seem to want to exist

very nice

This was really fun and creative!! Great work!

Pretty good! I do think that the decoder should have had to have been found first before it's needed. Scatterbrained me tried to interpret the symbols vaguely as letters and even thought the arrows were part of the hint, ehehe.

For anyone who just can't get the last code (spoiler text below)

1. The answer is randomized on every playthrough, so the codes in the comments probably won't work. The arrows even point to different clues every time.
2. The # of Cookies is 5, there are 4 in the fridge and another one on a dresser-cabinet thing in the bedroom, that extra one is included too
3. The wooden block with a symbol on it represents one of the books on the bookshelf, the symbol on the wooden block lines up with the cover of one of the books, and the number in the book is the answer
4. The painting means the number on the sticky note behind that painting
5. The (nyakuza letter here) = # means whatever that letter is (for me it was a G, but it's random every time), convert that letter to a number based on what letter of the alphabet they are (A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, etc.) . That number is the answer

Hope this helps.

ahhh gotcha, very interesting that causes this issue, glad you could resolve it!
NanoPi 20 Mar, 2023 @ 2:54am 
removing soft restored typing A
this has a file called s.u and there's a comment that mentions typing s

I searched the workshop downloads folder for a.* and found a.umap in soft.
CatCube  [author] 19 Mar, 2023 @ 9:25pm 
interesting, i guess i would try uninstalling that if its the only other mod you have? unsure why thats happening otherwise
NanoPi 19 Mar, 2023 @ 9:07pm 
I don't have that mod but I have soft
CatCube  [author] 19 Mar, 2023 @ 2:53pm 
this isnt the mods fault, if you have this mod installed it breaks text inputs in the game! hope this solves your problem!
NanoPi 19 Mar, 2023 @ 2:49pm 
typing a in input password types a instead of A
CatCube  [author] 19 Mar, 2023 @ 7:33am 
no need to be so harsh, but thanks for the feedback nevertheless! ive been told that the book on the wall is a lil too hard to figure out thats what it is so i understand that lol. and i thought the # was fine in the case of the paper part because its not just #, its [the letter] = #! tho i can def see how its hard to understand for some people, but anyway thanks for playing!
Balu 19 Mar, 2023 @ 5:58am 
never fucking mind i realised that the hearts meant the number from the heart book
this was way too misleading
also # of a code symbol means how many times it appeared, not what position it is on the paper

the overall level was okay but you need to work on the last part for its way too frustrating :/
Balu 19 Mar, 2023 @ 5:50am 
# of vases - 9
# of letter D - 4
number behind the forest building painting - 6
4-1 - 3
# of bomb hats - 1 (does the one in the terminal count too?)
# of hearts - 5 or 6 (5 on the teddy painting but there is also a heart pon on a painting in a kitchen)

and it wont work for the life of me

im so fucking done with this shit
i guess i wont complete this challenge road
mobrun 19 Mar, 2023 @ 12:13am 
In case you didn't figure it out already, you're missing a cookie. There's 4 in the fridge and there's one on the sill in the bedroom.
nDm 18 Mar, 2023 @ 11:00pm 
the final password won't work, and i've checked every digit several times
in order
1 - 4-2=2
2 - Number on the space painting = 5
3 - Decoder Letter C = 3
4 - Crown Book = 7
5 - # of Cookies = 4
6 - # of Time Stop Hats = 1

253741, but the code doesn't work. Am I doing something horribly wrong?
A screenshot is on my community feed, no idea how to link it here :P
CatCube  [author] 17 Mar, 2023 @ 7:16pm 
oh my lol, glad you figured it out!
mobrun 17 Mar, 2023 @ 7:14pm 
Oh God. I was looking at the wrong painting this whole time. I'm so embarrassed. Thanks for being patient with me.
CatCube  [author] 17 Mar, 2023 @ 5:01pm 
hmm, it should be 734828... at least based on what you've given me here, so im out of ideas. are you sure you counted everything correctly? sorry i couldnt help more, but i hope you can figure it out!!
mobrun 17 Mar, 2023 @ 4:55pm 
I'm sure my problem is between my keyboard and my chair, so to speak, but I'd appreciate any help regardless!
mobrun 17 Mar, 2023 @ 4:54pm 
I just can't seem to solve the final puzzle. I understand that the answers are randomized, but in case I'm missing something obvious, I thought I'd ask here just in case.

My arrow sequence looks like this:
4 -> (nyakuza symbol for H). H is the 8th letter of the alphabet, so 8.
3 -> clock painting. My number for this was 4.
5 -> heart book. Book talks about everything being in pairs, so 2.
6 -> 5+3. Either literal addition which is 8, or the answers of questions 5 and 3 added, which is 6.
2 -> #of ice hats. There are 3 in the fridge, so 3.
1-> number of windows. There are 2 in each room other than the bedroom, which has 1. 7 total.
Putting these in order by the key would make the answer 73482 (6,8). The final number changes on how clue 6 should be interpreted. However, neither of these answers work for me. Alternatively, if I were to just put the answers in order from top to bottom as shown, the answer would be 842 (6,8) 37. Neither of these work either.

wAATTT wheres the decoder???
CatCube  [author] 16 Mar, 2023 @ 6:09pm 
that red mess is the password! you need to find the decoder in the map by solving a different puzzle! hope this helps!
Metallis ANIMATION 16 Mar, 2023 @ 6:06pm 
bro what the PECK is the password
wtf is all that red mess on the wall
Julmara 16 Mar, 2023 @ 2:57pm 
shame guess i wont be playing this challenge road what a shame
CatCube  [author] 16 Mar, 2023 @ 10:39am 
if you started the level on controller and switched to keyboard while in the level, that may have messed it up somehow! try backing out to the hub and loading in with keyboard and mouse first! (not sure if it'll work but its worth a try!)
LessAwkwardUsername 16 Mar, 2023 @ 10:32am 
I couldn't get it to work, maybe it was confused by the way I've remapped my controller.

I couldn't do anything with the cross hairs, and when it asked me to input a password, none of the buttons worked, nor the keyboard, nor the mouse.
CatCube  [author] 16 Mar, 2023 @ 8:22am 
aw dang i didnt even think about steam deck, that really sucks! like ive said already, when the level isnt in challenge road anymore i'll get to fixing the level on controller! hope you do enjoy it when you can play it!
Fish 15 Mar, 2023 @ 9:01pm 
Really wish this was fixed to work with controller before it was put into the Challenge Road, was playing with someone on the Steam Deck and they basically can't play past level 1 until they're able to dock it with a keyboard another time. Seems like a cool level, I look forward to actually playing it when they get to play docked.
SingGuang 15 Mar, 2023 @ 8:14am 
Overall it is fun, but still annoying if found the right clue but input wrong sequence, such as the final room
CatCube  [author] 14 Mar, 2023 @ 9:13pm 
thanks! glad you enjoyed it!
Cruxin 14 Mar, 2023 @ 9:10pm 
yeah lol keyboard was fine, good map otherwise 👍
CatCube  [author] 14 Mar, 2023 @ 8:53pm 
hmm yea that seems like an issue with the first person controller in the mod, i can look into it when the level isnt in challenge road anymore (if updated while still in the road, it will be taken off automatically), so i guess for now just dont use controller lol
Cruxin 14 Mar, 2023 @ 8:50pm 
I tried both! I'm not able to use the onscreen keyboard, I can move around it but not press any letters or confirm or exit. Forced to exit to hub every time. I went back to Act 2 and the CAW agents work fine so I don't think it's my end
CatCube  [author] 14 Mar, 2023 @ 8:38pm 
you should be able to use the onscreen keyboard no? if you cant interact with it via the controller, try using arrow keys or wasd! (not actually sure if that works, but it might be worth a try!)
Cruxin 14 Mar, 2023 @ 8:35pm 
Just FYI - Controller doesn't just mean you can't jump, it actively softlocks when you interact with the keypad in the first room
VahidSlayerOfAll 14 Mar, 2023 @ 12:45pm 
reinstalled it and got it on the 1st try :soaangry:(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻┻
VahidSlayerOfAll 14 Mar, 2023 @ 12:12pm 
didnt want to spoil anything for others. got the one number from the one right book
got the one number from the hats in the fridge
got one from counting the number of objects
got one number from basic math 6-1 and even tried the answer to 6 - the answer to one
got one number from the letters, tried the amount that letter shows up and letter placement
got one number from the paintings number
punched in ever combination and ran 1 to 9 in each slot to check if they were wrong.
did this 3 times
CatCube  [author] 14 Mar, 2023 @ 9:11am 
well its not "refusing to work", you're just putting in the code wrong. not sure what you mean by using the books, you only need 1 of the books (as indicated on the wall of the last room). if you need more help, i can try if you include more details!
VahidSlayerOfAll 14 Mar, 2023 @ 7:47am 
also made sure i was right up to the keypad so i never hit the wrong keys
VahidSlayerOfAll 14 Mar, 2023 @ 7:46am 
spent an hour and a half on this level, played it 3 times and im able to get past every single puzzle but the 6 digit keypad. ive used the books. each time i have solved all of them, put them in the right order and run each number 1 to 9 punching the code in a fuck ton of times incase one of them is wrong and it never works. it just refuses to work every time....
Mockbirdzz 17 Dec, 2022 @ 6:52am 
good
CatCube  [author] 12 Dec, 2022 @ 3:13pm 
That password isn't moonjumper, its moongumper. Hope that helps!
seal 12 Dec, 2022 @ 2:22pm 
i tried typing moonjumper into the password thing but it still didnt work so im stuck
