Does it reverse only those directly horizantal and vertical or all surrounding lights?
Edit: Also, does the light you press reverse also? heh? |

Ok, just for you Mr Bonj, here is a basic crash course in Lights Out. NB o means light "off" x means light "on".
If you have the following light arrangment... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X X X 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 and you pressed the middle one all the lights go out... game done.... However it is not as easy as that!! The first level on lights out is like this... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 X 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 So I will complete this puzzle step by step, to give you an idea of how to do these!!... little o or little x is the one being pressed! 1) 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 X 0 X 0 0 o 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X 0 X X X 0 0 0 X 0 0 2) 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X 0 X X X o 0 0 X 0 0 ... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 X X 0 X 0 0 X 0 X 3) 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 o X X 0 X 0 0 X 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 X 0 X X 0 X 0 X 4) 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 X 0 X x 0 X 0 X ... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 X 0 X X 0 X 5) 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 X 0 X X 0 x ... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X X X 0 6) 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X x X 0 ... Lights out. I hope this gives you an idea on how to solve these types of puzzles... perhaps someone could create a winamp plugin game like that?!! However it gets complitated when you have a level like this... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 And they just drive me totally bonkers!!!... Good luck!!! ![]() |

I doubt this is the quickest solution but here goes:
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 x 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 (2 steps shown below) 0 0 0 0 0 0 o X 0 0 0 X 0 X 0 0 0 X o 0 0 0 0 0 0 (2 steps shown below) o X 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X o (2 steps shown below) X o 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 o 0 0 0 0 X 0 X X 0 0 0 X o 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X X 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 X X 0 0 0 X o X 0 0 0 X X 0 0 0 0 0 (2 steps shown below) 0 X o 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 X o 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X X 0 0 0 0 0 x 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X x X 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 heh? |

Errm... Not quite...
The first one is ok...
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 x 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 (2 steps shown below) 0 0 0 0 0 0 o X 0 0 0 X 0 X 0 0 0 X o 0 0 0 0 0 0 However that move above would do this... 0 X 0 0 0 X X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X X 0 0 0 X 0 Sorry for not explaining this properly... It's kind of difficult... Remember to invert the button you press.. I don't think I said that... sorry!!... Try again!! |

I think that's right.. Feel free to double check my 4-step moves, because I'm not positive I got em right. I really should've done this with cards or wrote a quick vb prog or something. Edit: Crap, I made a mistake on step 5. Yeah I gotta make a program or something so typos won't screw me up [Edited by bonj on 03-14-2001 at 04:15 PM] heh? |

Lots of info!
http://www.matthewb.redhotant.co.uk/links.html That's a bunch of links to Lights Out implementations (shockwave, java, etc). That site also has hints on solving it. |

Well done Mr Bonj!!! How the hell do you figure those out on paper?!!...
You inspired me to write a crap pascal program that does that... I am half way there, but I might post it when it's done... If you are bored.. try to solve this... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X X X 0 X X X X X |

Sadness
So in my spare time, as promised... I have created a Pascal version of Lights Out on the simplest level!!! Text interface, and a board you setup your self!!! And yes, I will try to improve it. Anyone want the source code?
here is Lights Out!!... http://www.lucosworld.flyer.co.uk/Lights.exe |
