Description
Average Playtime: 1+ Hours | Requires Labyrinths DLC

=============================

You work as what's known as an Archivist P.I. Your job is simple - when someone finds a dormant network, they report it to you, and you investigate the network. You scrounge together whatever data you can find from it and hand it over to the client to receive payment. A simple, repititive, and boring job, but it pays well. Occasionally, you'll come across the rare network with old family photos or an illegal digital copy of some 2020s film. Those were the days...

One day, this day, you receive a request from a client who wishes to remain anonymous. Nothing new, but the network you're sent rings a few alarm bells. Why would anyone be trying to look through... ah, well, it doesn't matter. As long as you're getting that sweet, sweet, metaverse dough, who cares?

As you venture forth, just remember... fear is the mind-killer.

=============================

This is a much more "artsy" extension and has some things that might be considered frustrating or go against what's now considered the norm for extensions. Everything has a reason for being the way it is! Please do not try to circumvent any of the artsy stuff, thank you!

This also only exists to tide people over until my next - and last! - extension. The next one is a big one, a grand hurrah. Can't wait to see you there!

Right, so, I'm reading the script now. ARIA does tell you to delete the file, but you're not meant to *actually* delete it, I thought I made it clear that was her basically telling you to go away. But I digress. I'll change that in the next update.

I'm fairly certain there's never a moment where this happens unless you sequence broke... but I'll check again.

I think I soft locked myself.

The AI told me to delete something that I downloaded, and I did what it asked.
Now I'm in a different area and it's asking me to run the thing that I'd already deleted.
I, um... I can't get that back now.

Yes, I know, that's just me being stupid. Still, I feel like it's not good from a design standpoint to have a character ask you (the player) to do something that will brick your progress down the line.

My suggestion would be to have the AI upload the file to my bin if it isn't already there, or have it on another node in the area where it's needed.

Is it normal, that your account is not saved?

The game crashed and after restarting I could not login to my rez Account but it tells me the username is already in use

@jjwebb not sure if you ever found your way through or if you're still interested in an answer. Whitelist 3 has a log.md file. You should have a tool that can let you peek inside.

Struggling to progress. I've gotten into Whitelist 3. The hint for it gives an extra letter than it's supposed to, btw. No matter what I do I can't get past this point. Deleting or changing the whitelist files just causes them to come back. There is a hint about using ForkBomb, but that doesn't seem to help. No matter what I do, I can't find another server (Whitelist 2?) nor can I connect to the rz_mail server. Unless there is somehow a hint inside of the image that was generated, I have completely run out of leads.

Glad to see another Rez fan :summercat2023:

Huh. An extension inspired by Rez wasn't something I was expecting to see today. I liked how it was handled, though!

You've seen Lucy's name used somewhere else in the same layer, that's the same username for her email.
