Hey again. I decided to come back to this puzzle and I'm at 14.... (with the four dots). I have TP, and ThE*** but still don't know what to do on this page that has the *** beginning its message.
And, ---...? What?
What am I supposed to do here? Could someone send me a PM, possibly?
Thanks for the advice. You've helped me pinpoint what I need to do, but I'm still stuck.

Have you found the connection among "ThE ***", numbers and the key? If you did, just use it in the right place. Where keys are commonly used, where you haven't used anything yet (you're still locked, remember? )
Yes, I found the connection between the numbers, ThE***, and thekey.
I'm assuming the 4 numbers is the thing people are calling "the map". Unfortunately, I have already used the map on the text "where keys are commonly used" in many different ways, and the results just seemed to be nonsense random letters. I could post or PM the results of this exercise, but it would just look like a two-year-old or a cat had just bashed the keyboard!
[edit]
Finally, I solved it!
I just want to say a big thanks to Tynka, Beezqp, and pennylane for all their help in thread and PM.
Here's my say for newer players that jump into this bear-trap of a level:
1. Be patient. I spent three days on this, and I'm told that the worst is yet to come. This is the last level in Chapter I, which I'm guessing is why it's so tough! Chapter II's different style looks amazing and is definately worth the wait/work!
2. Have some graphics software at the ready. No... better than windows paint! You will need something like GIMP (as recommended in the game description) or Paint.NET (the one I used), both are free. You won't need to do anything very advanced. You might even be able to get by without any graphics software on this level, but it helps. A lot.
3. Once you've got "TP" and the numerical code, they are not "the map". They help you find it.
To save you the irritating hours I lost, I will say that at no point does the 4-digit numerical sequence ever repeat. If you're getting long strings of nonsense letters, then you are doing totally the wrong thing, and so doing it slightly differently will be a big waste of your time.
Just spot the relation between "TP" and the code, then use that relation to understand the key, then obviously use the key to understand the door. I hope that doesn't spoil it too much.
Good luck to the newer players, and thanks again to the older players!
I just recently decided to start playing Inward Hellix again. I got to about level 30 before I got distracted by other games (MMORPGs!).
I had been banging my head against the wall for hours on this one, then decided to check the forum for hints. My own post from over a year ago (quoted above) was exactly what I needed to solve the last step!
HOORAY FOR ME!

Okay...I started playing this amazingly maddening riddle yesterday, and got so frustrated with level 14 that I am now desperately begging for help. I figured out what to do with the stairs and am now on the 8 lines...
And that's where I'm at a loss. Apparently I'm supposed to be seeing something that they make? Look between the lines? BUT I HAVE NO IDEA. Someone please help?

I went through the majority of levels without Gimp or Photoshop. I only used Gimp twice.
You don't need to play with blending, layers and all of that if you're shifty like me haha.
Edit: The hint that worked for me was made by Beezqp like 2 years ago:

In this topic I have seen many hints, followed them to the best of my abilities...I have brought these things in the picture together, played with them, tried to make them comprehensible...nay, I am afraid they are still incomprehensible bullcrud. I did however find a --- and a --- as instructed. Could this be the proper key to use, and have I found the proper door? I am told about nightmares, and to find a pattern...how to find that pattern...I am perplexed...cheesecake is yummy...

UG! I'm SO fed up with this level. I took a break for a few months and started over, and I'm STILL stuck on 14. I have literally EVERYTHING. There's a step in the last part that I'm missing somehow. I could really use a clue that's not so very vague.

I've tried using that knowledge on literally everything in this level. Well, apparently not everything since I haven't beaten it yet. Any way you can PM me with another hint?
I am well and truly stuck on 14....
I have TP and the number sequence that it gives. I have tried applying TP to the "t*" section, but it just gives me a string of nothing. I did notice that "T*" gives the --- (cut if too spoily) but I don't know if that's intentional or just a coincidence (you know now ). Do I need to use the key from 14... on any of this? Cause I've done that on a couple of things, but I don't get anything.
Any push in the right direction would be nice.

I think i have the first 4 letters of the last step, they make absolutley sens. But the last letters i cant find. I think i contiure the code right, but it dont work Could i pm my letters i have to somone?
I'm on what I believe is the last part of this level. I have TP and ThE... I also have the #'s. When I connect the #'s with ThE, I get ****... But that doesn't seem to help. Anybody want to put me in the right direction, or give a little clue?

ThE... is just a hint on TP isn`t it? Now TP is somehow connected to the key, you probably know that already. And where does the key fit?
1. Fit the key in it`s place...
2. Now connect the TP with the place the key fits...
3. Get the pass (there`s just that one little thing in TP that might cause problems, but it`ll come to you)
4. Spread love and peace
