Exactly 20 scenes for me. I know of two people who got exactly 30 scenes for the meepits part (me and one other person who posted their map). Check to make sure you didn't repeat and you didn't confuse two scenes (like an S path with a Z path or a 3-branched tree with a 2-branched tree).

I'll scan in my map on paper so people can see an example.

Is anyone else having trouble getting Meepit Juice Break to load? I can't get it more than 5% loaded, then it dies on me. Maybe it's just under heavy traffic...

Everyone's map is different so we can't have an easy way to go "Take this path, that path and this path and your there"

for the vines i had 22 screens and for the deep woods i had 33 screens (which was a lot of fun to map NOT. :roll: :cry:) oh well now it's done! :D Oh and the vines can be hidden by the grass and barely poking out (that happened to me) so look carefully. What I did was go back through all of the screens on my map and put stars next to the ones i checked for the second time until i found the last vine and meepit.
On another note the number of branches on the tree didn't matter for me. It was the trees' placement.

It may be heavy traffic. Try clearing your cache (in IE tools/internet options/ delete files) before trying again. You may need to do this more than once if it keeps hanging up.

i dont think the woods were all that hard to do. each map doubled in size yes, but last night i finished all my woods parts (once i was actually allowed into neovia to do them can we say server over load). and this morning armed with different colored pens i was able to make an even better color coded map for my husbands woods then my black and white version. only took me an hour to do all of my husbands maps and finish all the needed parts. if anyone remembers the temple of a thousand tombs from the LDP they should have a breeze flying threw all the woods parts. even basic maps will help complete what is needed to do.

I decided not to bother with maps. Glad I did, once the bugs were fixed it was a breeze just randomly clicking.

For my vine bit, I used miz sparrow's guidelines and dropped all my vines, then picked up one at a time (all 6 of one color) and went to the cliff to test. That way I could easily find my weakest and strongest vines. I used all 6 of the two strongest types, then added the 3rd strongest one vine at a time until the length was right. Never even needed to use the two weakest types.

I don't remember exactly which vine names and colors were which, but hopefully that will help if every person has a different strongest and weakest vine. Wasn't nearly as time consuming as just playing with random ratios.

I'm totally and utterly lost. How do you find out which ones are the strongest? Are the strongest the ones shown first in the line up? And the message says nothing about length...

God, this part sucks.

ETA: Ok, the part still sucks, but I got past it alright. Sorry if I seemed nasty, this is making me cranky =P

ETA2: GOD, that took the longest time! When they say deep woods, they mean DEEP. You really can't get through it without mapping. My map looks a mess, but at least it made sense to me =P

w00t! :D

It's in the same forest with the meepits. You just have to find the right path to get there. It's unmistakable once you find it. 7 large circles of light. :)

Ugghh... I know how you feel; it took me all day yesterday to get out of the vine part (my combination was 1-0-6-6-6), but it's pretty easy after that. The Deep Forest was a breeze for me, but I ended up just randomly clicking everywhere because I couldn't map out the Deep Forest! Certain paths kept changing where they led, but I've finished that know, thank God. :)

You should look for a stone shrine in the woods :) It will have 7 glowing spots before it on the ground. You won't miss it when you see it. Just keep searching and eventually one path will lead you to the shrine. :)

You can go to this petpage for a screenie of what you're looking for: Laoran_Flare


I was thinking it would be cool if TNT would make us a dancing meepit toy as a prize :D I loved the meepit dance ^_^

Phew, I've never been so happy to see those 7 lighted spots! It seems like I kept traveling in circles (and I was mapping my woods)
I'm really enjoying this plot, I love these puzzle elements. Can't wait for the next update :)
