The symbols on the "Stereolith" themselves appear to be partial and fragmented. I think the key to it lies elsewhere, and the name is the hint: Maybe the text needs to be combined with that on the "Monolith," or viewed through something else, like that trick in which a picture of random clutter turns into numerical code when viewed through evenly spaced bars. Or maybe, the symbols were split apart and displaced as if they were viewed through a stereogram, and the original text needs to be reconstructed from two sets of fragments.

Yeah, the stereolith has been a PITA for years lol What really sucks, is the characters on the edge might even be a language styled after something like cruciform or a pictographic (or pictogram based, if you prefer) language. Since it's in small , irregular groupings, it might also be a combination of formats where single/double characters may be a full word by themselves modified by contextual usage (think of languages like Japanese, Korean, or Chinese) Hell, it might even be as simple as reversing/inverting the image (or parsing it to be viewed from a multi/combination lens - there are arguably "intelligent" arachnids [Saberoids] in lore after-all).

I have a suspicion that, if the stereolith truly isn't encoded English, it might be encoded Russian. Background: Clue #1 - While "Monolith" is a word, "Stereolith" is not. Stereolithing, however, is a method of 3d printing, around since the 80s, for creating prototypes. Clue #2 - There is a file in the SE files called "testFont" in a folder than concerns itself with, apparently, creating custom fonts for the game to use. This file is written in Russian. Russian is also a language that uses marks above certain letters. Russian fits. I am still looking through files, specifically the monolith and stereolith files for the moment. I'll see if I find any more clues.

I remember discovering the monolith and stereolith for the first time by accident whilst going through the entity list trying to solve my lag problems. They, oddly enough, didn't pique my curiosity in the slightest because they seemed to be an immediate dead end. SE never struck me as the type of game to have anything more to the lore than slight references, so I figured that neither of these extraterrestrial platforms would give me anything if I put effort into them. Seems I was mostly right. The only thing I didn't know about previously was that the monolith confirmed some sort of alien race, but that was my initial guess anyways. As for my interpretation of the text, it seems some race either colonized or evolved on mars, and then abandoned the planet later for unknown reasons. Beyond that, I don't think Keen currently has any plans to expand upon or add more lore to this game, especially a story, since they've prioritized adding blocks and game mechanics.

I think I translated a Czech word for the Stereolith, which was the word "sny" meaning "dreams" in english. The part I derived this from was the second line, second word. I figured this by comparing the fonts and seeing which ones closely resembled another, reasoning behind this is that they could be derived from one another, just in a different evolved language. In order for me to figure out what letters could be in it and what couldn't, I made a list of what letters appeared in the monolith's transcription, which were these: "ACDEGHILNOPRSTVWY" with the ones not present being "BFJKMQUZ" Considering that I do not speak/know Czech and got this from an intensive few hours using an AI translator and wikipedia, I could be completely wrong in this. I do not know really any words from the language nor could I effectively order them in a way that resembles the positons of the stereolith. I do, however, believe that it's intended to be read left to right, are likely not numbers (as any coordinates would be irrelevant using debug mode in the game to locate anything at all), and that Czech or a slavic equivalent is the language it's based on. I think it is literally just another substitution but using extra letters from the Czech alphabet. I also did learn that the language is very flexible in its word placement, meaning that it could technically be interpreted multiple ways depending on positioning.

There's a technique to hide messages on sounds. Basically you want to make the right and left channels of the audio opposites, that way, when the audio is played on a mono speaker, you can't hear anything, but if you listen on stereo speakers it sounds just fine. As you know, at the end of the tutorial scenario, the monolith talks to you. Maybe there is something hidden on that audio, or maybe there is some sound on the monolith and stereolith that we just can't hear. Also it wouldn't be the first time a game uses that exact mechanic of having an inaudible sound with a hidden message.

Perhaps you should try doing things the other way round, instead of trying to match up real world letters to the symbols maybe take the Monolith and extrapolate what advanced time would do to that langue then translate the Stereolith. Edit: my reasoning is because the message in the Monolith is about the beginning of a race and maybe that was their language at the time and then the Stereolith is about where that race ended up, heading to Earth.

I noticed how in some of the letters there are these dots that sometimes appear and sometimes not. It reminds me a lot about Hebrew and how placment of dots and lines above,below and to the side of letters can change the sound they make. as an example. putting a dot on one side of the letter ש can make the diffrence between a "S/ɬ" sound and a "sh/ʃ" sound. it could also be that rather than the letters change sound, they can change the "strength" or "softness" of a sound. for instance, in Hebrew putting a dot inside the letter פ can either make it a "p" sound or a "f" sound. it could also be that there are letters that are diffrent at the end of a word kinda like capital letters at the start of a word

The part that confuses me the most is the 3 repetitions of similar "words" (T,LL [2nd word] TLL [7th] •TLL [9th])... I don't know if there is anything that uses 3 characters and can have that many variations. The first word also looks a bit like the last one, until the last character, that one is rotated 180°. Also the sentences aren't structured the same, the first one uses medium length words (1 to 6 characters) with smooth transitions and natural return to average. The second one uses either short - medium or long - ultra long words (1 to 3 and 6 to 8 characters) and has sharp transitions (~7 characters right before 1). This is possible in english, but to me it feels odd, unnatural...

One thing kinda worth mentioning is that there is a scenario which ends with you going to a monolith or sterolith (I forget which) and being consumed/teleported by it. I doubt there is anything to be gleaned from the scenario but it may be worth looking into with admin stuff to look at all grids.

Czech is the only clue I have, even if the game doesn't support it, doesn't mean the stereolith isn't using it as a base. I will take what you've said into consideration though, it's definitely worth keeping in mind.

Perhaps the Stereolith has a stereoscopic clue? The spirit mars rover took images with two stereo cams to make composite anaglyph images, there is also a red & blue faction since the beginning of space engineers. maybe the stereolith gives lore to their origins and you gotta look at the text from a different perspective first 😲. then again, these are intoxicated thoughts at 2AM so anything is possible.

So, I've seen this alphabet they use on the stereolythe before in another game. It was translatable too. I don't have the alphabet registered anymore as I didn't need it after translation of the text I had. I'll try to find it online, but I can't promise anything. The giveaway was the first letter of the third word on the second line. I can only guide you on memory. And I don't remember much. -The slash followed by a tinier curved slash is a single letter. (The one I was referring to as the giveaway) -The dots are part of the letters and are different letters from the ones without dots. If you have anything that bugs you in the text, I'll try to help as best I can. Good luck on your side. I'll try to find in on mine.
