Description

Solves all levels of Shapeshifter. Just load the puzzle and click solve! All 100 levels supported. Note: This is not an autosolver. You have to enter the solution on Neopets yourself. See the __ReadMe__.txt file in the archive for more info.

Features


  • You can pre-place puzzle pieces by dragging them from the bottom of the screen onto the puzzle. To remove a pre-placed puzzle piece from the puzzle, just click on the same puzzle piece at the bottom of the screen.

  • Displays elapsed solution time.

  • Displays solution progress as a percentage. A solution to the puzzle will be found somewhere between 0% and 100%. This is useful for determining how long a puzzle may take to solve. Note: Enabling the percentage slightly increases the time it takes to solve a puzzle. Disable this feature for best performance.

  • Two methods of attack are available to solve the puzzle.


Suggestions

  • If you have a dual core (or more) computer, you can run two copies of the Solver. Configure one with 'Divergence' checked and one with 'Divergence' unchecked. Then see which one finds the solution first!

  • On the bigger base 2 puzzles (levels 41-45 and 51), uncheck 'Divergence' and try pre-placing a few of the biggest puzzle pieces. You can usually find a solution in just a few seconds if not immediately.

  • Some of the Shapeshifter levels are hard for all solvers due to the sheer magnitude of placement possibilities. In particular levels 48-50, 53-54, 63-64, 73-75, 84-85 and 100 can take a very long time to solve. Run two Solvers, one with and one without 'Divergence' checked. Watch the solution percentage. If it is not making measurable progress after a few minutes, give up and get a new puzzle. Some puzzles are just easier to solve than others. You may find that you need an hour or more to solve these puzzles.
