I initially thoguht there was a little land bridge... But it was just an overseen water artifact. Is this adventure related or is there some other way to get there?

Now to see if you can change lot types in destinations...once I explore that place it'd be an awesome spot for a mini vacation home.

When I tried to walk to this island, the game would hang, as it was trying to route me there. And I've had the game hang a few times, ONLY in foreign lands, and I am wondering if it's things like this trying to be routed to by other sims?

Click to a spot on the ground within sight of the Sim and select Zeneport. I can't wait to return to France and find the tomb that leads to the island. Zeneporting there was profitable, but not adventurey.

mangaroo transmogrified Join Date: Aug 2007 Posts: 5,455 1 Achievements	I prefer that it not be instantaneous. Otherwise, one would be wasting time to work through the puzzles in the tombs instead of just zeneporting past 'em. However, for the impatient, there is a teleport cheat: Game Help:Sims 3 Cheats^wiki.

The "real" way to get there is via the other tomb (which is a completely optional tomb, I believe -- no special key required -- though you will need Pangu's Axe to get in). And it's a tricky one, took me a while to solve all its puzzles

You have to have the axe first, smash the boulders, and then you'll find it. Make sure you have ample time because it's a bit long.

I got stuck there! I know there is more to it, because I can't get to the island yet, but I can't figure it out. Could someone help me?
