I'm running the Mac version of the game. The statue is almost at the top of the hill and the Chief got distracted by something. Now I can't get him back on "directing the work". You can see a video of my frustration here:

I've tried dragging him over every pixel of that statue (and down the path and all around the base) and nothing seems to get him to direct work again.

Argh!

Im having same problem guess im antsy too lol...been working on iy since 730 am and the head of statue is over the scaffold so im sure its almost done i just cant tell how many hours and mins lft because its not showing me once i click on the statue...GOOD LUCK!!

If you are on mac and are playing v1.00.02, PM me so I can fresh your download to 1.00.03. Include your order email.

If you have 1.00.03, just drop people lower down on the path. 1.00.04 is in testing and corrects all of this even more.

I'm on windows version so I guess no luck for me. Too bad because I'm so sleepy waiting on them to finish

Ohhh man I'm so glad you posted this I really thought it was just me (and my mac). Now to see if I can find my order info. And that was a great idea to do the video, Pickle.

Thanks Arthur, I have the mac version, and exactly the same problem, I sent you a PM yesterday night.

Arthur - I'm a total newbie. What's PM? As for version - the About Box says Virtual Villagers 3 (1.0), but nothing more detailed than that.

pickle, PM = Private message

Ok, how do you send a Private message ?

You click on the member name, an then on send a private message

Pickle, you need to look on the game's menu screen to determine the precise version number that Arthur is looking for.
