I spent an hour trying to 'decode' the wrong file.

Still, scrolling through a .swf in Windows Notepad had a slight Matrix feel to it
...Except Notepad does not let me plug in to do kung fu or somersaults with guns 'n' stuff.

I listened intently to the .swf in WinAmp and all I got from it was that I love the IH music.

Okay so I'm just gonna, you know, start from scratch and maybe find the file everyone is talking about in the first place...?!

Edit: FYI I can't find it. I literally cannot even find the file everyone is talking about!

talking about Matrix you should find your way to the SOURCE

"compresion" really needs a second "S"... or was that intentional? I guess that should go in "Bugs" though...

Found the "package" (if you can't find it, you're thinking too hard: try the most likely filename that stares you in the face... and then try out every extension you know, the right one is probably the second most common)

EDIT: Found the password, extracted the files, but what to do now?

I can open "unknown" with IrfanView (cut if spoily) but it's the same thing as what I see on the level??

EDIT 2: Sorry for spoiling at first, I was in a hurry and got distracted. Changed it once more, so it's OK now.

EDIT 3: GOT IT!! OK, so if (like me) your Photoshop stops working and you want to use a smaller program... IrfanView is not enough. Use GIMP, it contains a function you need. No image editing, thankfully, but IrfanView is still not enough.

I've only tried a couple of filenames (going on what has been said above, it sounds like it's either the most obvious, 4-letter word or another 4-letter word that requires no searching at all) but I've gone through a lot of extensions with no results. Is there any chance that this wouldn't work on Chrome?

[Muzozavr]

It's not a four letter word, but it's still obvious.

[Mongoose]

Ah, now on to the password...

Does it have anything to do with the pattern with the missing letter, as seen in one of the filenames within the package? I have found the missing letter but can't seem to use it in a password with any success.

[Muzozavr]

Missing "letter" (---) + numbers at the right = password

(If you don't see numbers, open with a different program, same extension, different program)

[Mongoose]

Wait, open what to see numbers where? I haven't even extracted the package I obtained yet. I only know about the filenames because you can see what's inside before extracting; I haven't yet opened anything.

[paFci0]

Are you sure that what's missing is a letter?

[Muzozavr]

PMed. Can't tell here.

alright... got the [] (or so I think. anyway, it allowed me to unpack one of the files, so I guess it's right), but can you give me a hint how to decode the 'binaries'? I tried the Morse code and a few weirder ideas, but none worked. is the letter pattern a sort of key to the 'binaries'? and... what should be the outcome? a word, a string of numbers, a string of letters that don't make a word?

[Beezqp]

someone who has a lot of time should answer here

[vard]

(and now I don't know whether this is a hint or what it seems to be )

you should get a word from those numbers
use this word as the password

Awesome level

[Beezqp]

I'm glad that you finished it, I need guinea pig to check if 37 is still solvable.

Let us know please!

[Emx]

Ok

[Muzozavr]

[Beezqp]

Nah, I meant 37.

[Luthorien]

I think I know what [] means...Is it A** k**? I can't use it as PW though....Any help?

[Muzozavr]

It is... but are you sure you're seeing everything?

There should be some extra numbers in the information. The right "thing" will help you decipher the numbers.

[Luthorien]

I don't see any other numbers apart from the dimension...hope it's not again related to Windows
