Well I normally crouch (in real life) to pick up some things from the floor. :-)
fuelcan: shakin' the shelves
cord: put a wooden panel between the second lift and the shelves to make a 'bridge'. Jumped from lift 1 to lift 2 and grabbed the cord.
cord (other attempt): used some dynamite until the cord was kicked on the floor. This is the only useful thing I could do with the dynamite, to throw some things over. Never could use ut with the flying critter for instance it always bit me before I could throw or I blew myself up...
You need to crouch to pick up things from the floor, this makes more realistic the game in my opinion
For the fuel shelf, I just dragged it and tipped it over. As for the chord shelf, I built a small ramp with the wood piece and the metal box. Took some tries, but I made it
Then I discovered the controls. I wasn't touching them in start, because I remembered what happened when I pulled one of those earlier...
no problems getting the can....but I'm struggling to find where the hose is that goes with it...so I can start the generator...
Go one stairs down from the generator... Try to search from there!
cheers, done it all now...right to the end. I have to say, if it wasn't for all the problem solving and things to do....I could have completed the whole demo in an hour, maybe less. Still, a great game...just wish there was more...I wonder if there will be...oh yeah, and as for the fuel hose by the ramps...I just grabbed the plank, wedged it under the ramp next to the rack, leaned it against the rack, and walked up it....sorted.
PS: I agree, the dynamite is pretty useless...killed myself a few times...monster unhurt (that thing looks like a flying tadpole with teeth)....give me a good 'ol baseball bat anytime....lol
Dynamite will be rare in my mod, but much more powerful.
And the dynamite *can* kill the monster. It took around 50 sticks for me to finally land one close enough to kill it. I modded my savefile btw, so it gave me 100 sticks :o
When I got the fuel, I jumped on 2 of the boxes then it said that I could reach it, so i clicked and fell down and somehow the shelf fell down too.
When I got the cord, I got a nearby box and slid it between the 2 metal bars and then got a wooden board and leaned it adenst the shelf and sorta mounted it between the box and the bars. Then I went up my little bridge.
To kill the second bat thing, i put the garbage can in front of the door it was coming from and then got out a dynomite and threw it into the can, it still hurt the roach even though it was on the other side of the door. It took me 3 sticks of dynomite.
The End!
ok, different solutions to the same problems...but anyway...what's next !
Any more to come ?...or is Penumbra done , finished and forgotten ?
