    Keep blowing that whistle at each stone and ask the parrots for directions.
    You won't actually SEE the bronze hat. Maybe general Casaba can help you with that....?
    If you know what he's up to...

    I never get the question dialogue to come up with the parrots. I've summoned them a few times at different rocks and I get an assortment of questions to ask them, but never anything about which direction to take. Any ideas?

    Did you talk to the pirate on the beach long enough to get him to tell you it was under a rock? It sounds like you have an unset global varible.

    Capt. Tripps -- Yes, you were right. I didn't ask the question about his father, of which his answer confirmed that Guy could take the hat if discovered. Once that occurred, I went back to the beach and the direction dialogue appeared with the truth-telling parrot. Finally got the hat! Thanks!!

    Edit: I'm now in the lava boat. Have the milk bottle, but can't find the puddle to push the tree. I don't even see a puddle! :bang:

    Did you go to the mountain with the three holes and small boulders that you drop into them? You need to solve that puzzle before there is a lava pool.

    Damn! I thought I had figured out the boulder thing. Here's what I did:

    1. Threw boulder into right canal. When it hit the little tree...

    2. Threw boulder into middle canal. When it hit the little tree....

    3. Threw boulder into left canal. When it hit the little tree...

    4. Threw boulder AGAIN into the left canal.

    I had made a few mistakes earlier, where the boulder hit the canyon once and then the beach. Then I finally got the walkthrough and followed the sequence. But do I need to reload the sequence and start from the beginning?

    No, I don't believe you have to restart. If you do it correctly, a boulder should fly to the lava stream and block it off to form a pool. Timing in this rock puzzle is everything, just like the flaming boat and chopsticks when you got the picture in that restaurant.

    Ack!!! I *cannot* get the timing right on this puzzle! I've tried over 20 times and nothing happens! First, I let go of a boulder just as the previous one hits the tree -- and do that for all of them. Then I tried to release it just *after* they hit the trees....then I tried just *before* they hit the trees. Man, who do they think the players of these games are anyways?? :bang:

    Pick up a rock (Rock A) from the pile of big rocks and throw it in the right canal. Pick up another rock (Rock B) right away and get ready to throw it in the middle canal. (Highlight the option "Throw rock at canal in the middle of the cliff", but don't press Enter). When the first rock (Rock A) passes branch 1 (The branch shakes) throw rock B in the middle canal.

    Pick up another rock (Rock C) right away and get ready to throw it in the left canal. (Highlight the option "Throw rock at canal in the left side of the cliff", but don't press Enter). When the second rock (Rock B) passes Branch 2 (The branch shakes) throw rock C in the left canal. Rock C will now hit Rock B and guide it in another canal.

    Pick up another rock (Rock D) right away and get ready to throw it in the left canal. (Highlight the option "Throw rock at canal in the left side of the cliff", but don't press Enter). When the second rock (Rock B) passes Branch 3 (The branch shakes) throw rock D in the left canal.

    Rock A will now come out of a hole and hit Rock B, which will guide it in another canal. Rock D will then hit rock B above the middle exit and they will both go off the ramp. One of the rocks will land in the lava field.

    I can't explain it better. If this doesn't work, then maybe there is something wrong with you, or your game, or we are all wrong.
    Good luck
