Okay, i'm stuck on a part in the "Our Benefactors" chaptor. I know there's some helpful guys around, so i'm asking here.
Possible spoilers in this thread, so be aware.

I've just been inside the human pod and carted around the complex. I've come to the end of the line, dropped down, lost all the weapons, and now have the new gravity gun.

I've walked around the walkways, killing all 10 or so infantry there. I've now found this generator looking thing (as seen in this screenshot).
http://www.thecodesmith.com/images/temp/hl2ourbenefactors.jpg

In that screenshot, there's a damn barrier fence, preventing me from going down there, and i can't even jump over the silly thing. I can throw objects into the generator beam, but they just evaporate and doesn't seem to effect anything.

There are four energy barriers blocking my way in the area, one in the screenshot, one near where this screenshot was taken, one where i dropped down in the human pod, and another down the corridor from where i dropped down.

I could do with some hints, i've spent nearly 2 hours around that area trying to figure it out for myself.

I've beaten the game, but I don't remember being stuck at any part like this. I think you're supposed to remove the energy balls from one of those generators.

I think you're confusing this with a part earlier in the game when you have to disable the three generators powering the suppressor back in the city centre.

There's no balls in this generator beam, can't even get close to it because of that railing just in front of me...

If you can't jump, load a save from earlier in that level when you can jump. It's a bug in the game for some odd reason, happens rarely. I had it last week.

After you do that it should work just fine. You'll like what lies ahead. Smile

A bug? Great, i love it when i waste hours trying to figure something out, then finding out it's not actually my fault...

I'll give that a go, thanks.

Thanks, that cured the problem and i can now jump over that pesky railing. Any idea if Valve are addressing this problem? I had to skip nearly 30 minutes back for a save point where a could still jump...

They have bigger problems to solve, by the looks of the "Audio stuttering" topic in Steam forums...some posts there.

I used to have the stuttering problem until I found out that my playback sound was set to a program instead of my sound card. Wtf's up with that? It's fixed now.

Go post that in the forums, there's about 5000 replies in the topic with angry customers complaining about the sounds. Very Happy

That was only because I had Total recorder installed, I doubt they have it installed, lol.

And there we have it, game completed, damn that was great, however a little unexpected.

If i remember correctly, the audio stutter problem was also present in the original 1996 half life. Yet people still get it with HL2 (different system specs by now though of course).

It's funny how so similar the HL1 and HL2 engines are. I mean, REAL similar. CS:S is almost exactly the same.

We'll be lucky if our children will be able to play it before they're 20.

I had that jump bug, couldn't jump for nearly the whole of the Citadel levels.
I got through it by making ramps out of all the junk lying around and sprinting up them.

From what i hear, they've been working on HL3 for 6 months :S

Btw, great game, it took less time to complete than i thought though, and it ran really well considering my crappy system Smile
I like the way they've ended the game... it leaves you with as many questions as you started out with and it leaves a nice big hole for HL3 to fill Razz

Hope Eli and Alyx are, back they were kickass characters, My theory is that they got teleported in that massive *bang* at the end, to some Combine world :/ Just a guess theough Cool

They'll find some way to bring the main characters back, at least Alyx. I doubt they're just gonna have that big beam fall on them and/or get blown up in the citadel.
