Ok, I went to where Stringy Pete was supposed to have his treasure, and there wasnt jack SHIT there!!! WHY!!!??? Why isnt that PINHEAD dumping his gems!!?? Better yet, where is he, Im gonna GUT the asshole!!
Follow the trail north of were you come out of the world map. There should be some blue/green monkey/ape things(vauge as hell, huh) the. Find his grave a few screens north of the start. It should highlight when you mouse over it. Use a shovel to dig and then there should be a old box and a buckle. you have to use a shovel or you can't "open" the chest/grave. Put the shovel in a hotkey spot or drag it over the hand icon in your iventory screen. Hope that helps. :grin:
If you're actually at stringy pete's cove you have to go south until you find a boat, click on it, it'll take you to an island, wander around till you find a skeleton.
