Hi, me again, tks I found the sewer drain all went well from then on, managed to get into the building, got by all the trip mines, got down to the basement, waited til the aliens left, got down to the tank, but now, every time I try to run zigzag to the storage room, the tank gets me, I did pick up strange looking glove however that kills combines only, and the detpack, for some reason I can't make it work, if i right click nothing hapens, if i left click, it just disapears, how do i make it explode.

Hi, thks, re detpacks, it looks like something you would place on a tank, timer and then explode, but I don't know how to use it. When you click on it in your inventory, its in your hand, has a timer on it.
I'm not talking about the mbout the trip mine gadget,that works fine.

It must be a Satchel Charge. You use it by clicking on it to attach it to a surface, then click on it again, which activates the detonator to set it off

Tks, I;ll try the jump, by the way, you must be retired like me as you reply almost instantly. I'm a real gamer, love 1st shooters, like, Wolfestein, men of valor, call of duty, far cry, iron storm, mafia, deadly dozen, half life 2 all great games.

Your right, Shaggy, and isn't it nice. No more 9 to 5 race. Do what you want, when you want, and how you want ... I spend hours and hours on games, love them. I like the Shooters too, not all of them, but do like most RPGs. Did I mention that I'm starting Chronicles of Riddick? Right, give that jump a try.

Ok, that will be my next one. Now, how do I get to the big gun?? Can't figure out how to get there.
Did you play any of the Myst games?? Riven etc they were great, Syberia, return to Eygyt also good.

Hi,again, Shaggy. I played the first Myst, Tex Murphy Series, and some others, long time ago. Use to love the Adventures, but somehow they don't have that zing anymore. To get to the gun, you need to go back to the guard who let you in the supply room, and he'll unlock another door ... or am I where you already have been?
