TheReaperMan Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Vanishing point From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search For other uses, see Vanishing point (disambiguation). A vanishing point is a point in a perspective drawing to which parallel lines appear to converge. The number and placement of the vanishing points determines which perspective technique is being used. linear perspective is drawing with 1-3 vanishing points. curvilinear perspective is drawing with 5 vanishing points mapped into a circle with 4 VPs at the cardinal headings N,W,S,E and one at the circle origin. reverse perspective is drawing with vanishing points that are placed outside the painting with the illusion that they are "in front of" the painting. Vanishing points were first used by Renaissance artists such as Donatello and Masaccio. Vanishing points can also refer to the point in the distance where the two verges of a road appear to converge. This is often used to help assess the upcoming curves in the road; to judge the radius and therefore the entry speed and optimum line. If the vanishing point moves towards you or to your sides, the curve is tightening. If the vanishing point moves away from you or comes to centre, the curve is straightening.

mikeking23 Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 hi. This is my first post obviously, and first game like this I've played. Everyone on here is really good at this stuff, I can't believe how fast the puzzles were answered. Anyhow, I've been thinking about a couple things that probably don't mean anything. 1) The total score possible for the game (without referrals) is 1300. Thats a really clean number total and for some reason I have a feeling thats going to mean something. 2) The "other" bug for some of the puzzles (that more than a few people got) stands out to me. Its weird how it shows up behind the popup on the main page and then is gone if you log off / log on. ok well I won't waste your time anymore. If these things are nothing please don't kill me, it is my first time with this stuff!!

SuperRob Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 At the end of the video, after the vanishingpointgame.com website address appears, there are some words that flash on the screen. Could this be a clue? It's the start of the Meta Puzzle. Use that the same way we did the earlier ones. As for Aaron's e-mail, it was a mistake. We weren't supposed to get that. Those are just his title, work, and fax numbers. Ignore that stuff. Although, there's one thing I need to take back. Originally, I said to ignore the weird white boxes that were showing up in the game. Apparently, I'm not as smart as I think I am. http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=17829 :o Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/529110-the-real-game-starts-puzzle-box-1/page/22/#findComment-588208657 Share on other sites More sharing options...
