Decoding the Mount Chiliad Mural

[talkol]

That tiny pyramid has the eye of Penris close by, any correlation with those two buildings and Penris's meaning in the game ?

 

maybe instead of flying in the sky with a helicopter, we need to stand on the top of the pyramid and use a sniper scope (penris = sniper) to look at the sky from below

Penris is also an anagram of Ripens, like the fruit on the trees mentioned in Epsilonism. Just because something is an anagram doesn't mean it has any relevance though.

 

We know that UFOs spawn where the red eye symbol is. One is on top of Mt Chiliad and one is on top of the Sculpture Park. The sculpture in the Sculpture Park is shaped just like Mt Chiliad (and is probably a representation of it).

 

Is there a Mt Chiliad shaped building or road layout in the city, maybe near to somewhere that has a red symbol?

yes I've been searching that spot the last 2 days but I got nothing.Maybe someone else will have better luck

I second that. It's the most obvious place in the city because the UFO has FIB on it.. I also looked for hours above this building and nada. The only interesting thing I saw is the T2/T1 mark on the towers (which relates to the doors in the tunnel below chiliad).. and this angle has been already discussed to death

I tried looking for the "bomb" from the merryweather heist (offshore) but I can't find it- is it still there after the mission? I can't find the location on any map and I don't know where it is in the freighter mission as I didn't do that. Also I haven't seen any mention of it in any threads besides in the heist- surely I'm not the first to want to play with it.

[erbalist]

Is there a red eye at the 3rd UFO as well?

 

Do we have any others? If not i think thats what we should be looking for.

[jkd69]

red eye

Check the map on the first page of this thread- not to sure if it's updated

[erbalist]

Same map that's been there forever! Just a quick answer rather than me having to trawl back thorugh, has a red eye been located at the site of the 3rd UFO? If it has then i may have to change my overall theory

I actually havent ever checked because the 3rd ufo is above the fort, and you get stars when you walk in there.. maybe with the noclip buzzrd glitch you can explore it in greater detail without anyone shooting you

[erbalist]

Never mind i have just re-read the guys theory and it is full of holes, i should have read it properly the first time.

 

I'm still convinced that the Mural holds all the answers and everything else is just distracting, I think each x represents

a requirement, Rockstar gave us the first 3 so we could see the UFO and know we have followed the mural correctly so far now it is up to use to work out the other two, we know it will feature the eye and a simple picture underneath to represent a gameplay mechanic such as weather, time etc.

 

I think the sun pose yoga thing could actually be one of them, other ideas I have had is a certain amount of money, a certain vehicle, a certain weapon, a certain character. There are only so many different gamplay mechanics that can be tracked by the game surely? Maybe completion but it would appear that is already used but it could be true 100% or even the Platinum trophy (Or x-box equivilant)

 

I have only ever approached this from a puzzle point of view and the only clue we have imo is the mural. It's big, it's obvious and it is very leading, I will never be convinced that seeing a UFO is all that mural is for, there is far too much waste for that to be the case, almost half of the information on the mural is not used so far; that is what we should be concentrating on.

 

What could the other 2 glyphs be, by providing a half worn one Rockstar are telling us that they're used to be five, one is completely worn away and the other is half worn away. Now when i say all the other stuff is distracting maybe it is to provide clues for the other 2 glyphs but i am sure that ultimately this whole puzzle will be solved at the top of Mount Chiliad once we figure out the whole mural.

or the glyphs are actually 3 sets

 

white set 5 glyphs

 

red set 2 glyphs found so far

 

yellow set 1 glyph found so far.

 

the sand glyph hmm could be related to the yellow glyph.

 

theory the glyphs on mount chiliad are there to get the player started to what they have to look for and how to read it.

 

the sand glyph is quite a bit different it has an arrow next to it on the left side and parts of the wow signal on the right side with a small arrow above the e of the wow signal pointing to the eye.

 

assumption now is that the red glyph on top of mount chiliad shows the position where to stand respective in what area. the hippy camp has a lookout on a small hill too.

 

set of yellow glyphs indicating that the location is at the hippy camp and 3 am in the night. now on to find more glyphs.

 

i dont think it would be as easy as just to repeat the step at chiliad again...

 

but well without another colored glyph found this theory is just a theory ^^

[AnEvilVet]

The Fort Zancudo UFO doesn't have a red eye because it's a prototype stealth plane built by the military. It's got English writing on it and looks completely different from the other UFOs. It's akin to the Avrocar - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avro_Canada_VZ-9_Avrocar

"they didn't draw a Walrus on top of the mountain to represent a UFO, they drew a UFO on top of the mountain"

 

I was actually meaning to ask if there may be something wrong with my copy of GTA V...

 

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh my God! My sides!

 

But really. Surely the red eye on top of the mural represents the red eye on top the mountain? That was my thinking..

[ThatPotatoGuy]

eh probably done to death but I'm out of ideas.

The description in your post is exactly how I have felt for a long time, I've posted similar things myself. But approaching it from this angle, I've made no progress at all. I have been trying to fulfill extra, hidden conditions for quite a while. I tried doing yoga on Mt.Gordo with another character at the UFO; nothing. I've been trying different days of the week (I thought Sunday may be key because of the altruist camp); again nothing. It is very difficult trying all combinations of possible conditions. Even if this was the right idea, it still doesn't completely explain the mural. Especially those goddamn black lines! Still, it's nice to know someone had the same thought process as me.

I found an underground tunnel at the humane Labs and Research. Looks like it can be accessed from outside near the ocean.

After a long time with zero progress, I'm actually excited and think we're close to a significant discovery

 

Everything comes in 3's in this game. There has to be a 3rd UFO (the holo doesn't count, it isn't a UFO you can touch, it disappears before nightfall and it shows on special conditions unlike the others)

Once we find it, it will show us the way

i searched "gta 5 helicopter under map glitch" on youtube. its really hard to do but thats the only way i know. you have to use cheats btw

[blade1199s]

I followed sakis25 posting here (thanks again Sakis25).

 

http://gtaforums.com/topic/625200-tutorial-fly-anywhere-under-the-map-hunting-for-secrets/

 

1. Go to location on map.

2. Activate super jump cheat.

3. Jump up to the left corner area.

4. Activate buzz chopper cheat.

5. Fly over to the right off and down below where you were standing.

 

Make sure you save this since you will die many times flying into water and things below the land.

Hmm,

 

Ive always thought of the mural being placed differently. Like turn it a hundred 'ish degrees to the right. Plus dont think of the mural as being Exact when it comes to box placement. Perhaps the boxes are general directions. And the lines represent roads/paths, those lines that lead off the mural 'go around' the mountain out of view if you will.

 

You have the 'Jetpack' picture at the Army base.

 

The easter egg, is the bodies for the Number 8 easter egg.

 

And the UFO at the top of the map for the UFO. Its just a easter egg rather then an actual UFO for use.

 

Thats as far as I have got anyhows, noted its a different angle to what other people are at, and noted some of the murals do line up to the map in other aspects. Just got a feeling were looking at it wrong somehow.

Have you not done the story? f*ck sake. Thats the tunnel that is entered through bars in the ocean, that needed to be cut through with some welding looking tool.

 

How about you play the story first before you go making yourself look dumb?

I played the story and this isn't the first thing that popped into my mind don't be so hard on him.. he's exploring for us all. i agree that it's 99% the same tunnel but still good efforts!

I Meant the mural picture, imagine it being over the army base, the egg over those islands, and the ufo over the ufo.

 

I was sort of coming from a different angle. Probably ending up nowhere mind. Im fairly convinced that If a jetpack did exist, it would have to be unlocked somehow, (series of actions to unlock it, missions etc), and it would be kept somewhere high security, ie army base, technology etc.

[ThatPotatoGuy]

did anyone try to glitch in there?

There are fib guys outside guarding the place and security cameras(99% old)

[GrndZero]

Not sure if this relevant to this thread exactly but I have compiiled the markings at the hippy camp into an easy to view format, again sorry if not relevant here.

 

 

Every time I look at these symbols I think of the flash game "Flow". I still think there is a meaning there somewhere to these things.

To comment on some things posted some pages back about people linking things like the jetpack to military, I just wanted to add in my opinions.

I am 42 and have done two separate military stints in my life. Both times going overseas during war time efforts and when I look at a jetpack, I do not think Military.

I think of things like the 6million dollar man or James Bond type stuff and recently, the videos with the guys that made a jetpack of sorts out of water.

 

I have 100% as of a couple days before this weekend. Saturday was the first time I have used a cheat in the game and decided to go into the Fort with invisibility cheat. There is no taking over the place as they just keep spawning more and more and I looked in many of the terminals and barracks areas but I could not find anything of any value.
