I could not jump into the truck. It would not let me. So I just ran behind it.

Pokey; Where is this warehouse I was supposed to go to? I jumped out the window of the hotel and wound up in the collapsed building. Does installing the god-mode screw the game up? (Oh, by the way, I just found the wedge under the truck tire. I'm now trying to jump in the back before it takes off down the hill) nu2gaming

God mode does not screw the game up. Did you even activate it? Did you check the god mode box? If you did not you dont even have the god mode activated. The patch does not default to god mode. You have to activate it by checking the box.

Pokey and JohnBoy: Yes I checked god mode. I think I have figured out what I'm doing wrong. I think when I try to jump from the hotel to the other bldg. I don't make it and wind up at street level. (I have never landed on the other building). Does that sound reasonable? I'm just going to go back to the hotel save and try to start from there. It seems I have really confused you guys. I'm sorry. nu2gaming

Yes, if you don't make the jump you will fall into the alley. In order to make the jump you must look slighty up, or Jack will fall. All jumps need to be done this way. Jack is also afraid of heights, so looking down over any kind of drop is usually not a good option unless you have no choice. Don't be sorry. This is a really hard segment for so early in the game. It took all of us completely by surprise! But you actually made it through the hardest part of the sequence. The rest is a little less intimidating, although those fishmen keep coming after you.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

Thanks for all your encouragement. Yes, that is indeed what is happening. I miss the jump and end up in the alley. This apparently takes some skill I haven't yet developed. Oh well. Practice, practice, practice. EDIT: AAARG!!! I've had it. I'm never going to make that jump. I'm so tired of those fishmen. Goodnight. nu2gaming

Jump and look up as you get to the edge. You'll make it eventually.

Hi; Has this happened to anyone else? Twice (in the hotel) before the escape attempt, the screen says "saving game", but when I get killed or miss the jump and wind up in the alley I have to start back at my last save (before following Gilman upstairs to my room). nu2gaming

WOW!!! I finally made it into the warehouse and to the star/save point. Now all I have to do is get past these guys and find that open window. nu2gaming

Pokey; Now you have me worried again. What office? I'm at the save/star and can't seem to get out of that corner. I sure haven't seen an office. I'm on the verge of just trying to barge my way past them to get out of this corner. No matter how long I wait crouched, in stealth, they are always there the minute I move. nu2gaming

ok. I'm totally stumped again. I'm on the floor of the warehouse. Should I be up on the catwalk? I can see a door up there but I don't find any way to get to it. I'm not seeing a guy with a flashlight, just two guys who keep repeating "Don't let him get away! Shoot him!" Ive tried jumping up on some boxes below a window but nothing is happening. Don't you just press the "space bar" to jump? I spent two days getting from the hotel room to this warehouse. I looks like it may take me that long to get out. nu2gaming

Pokey you're a doll! ok. I've gotten as far as the sewer. (didn't accomplish anything in the warehouse except finally getting out). I'm in the sewer. I've done the switches on the pipes, turned the crank, did the switches on the pipes again and turned the crank again. I'm not finding the floodgate. Is it in the room with the crank or back in the sewer? Where? nu2gaming

The floodgate it in the vat. The crank for the floodgate is right beside the vat. Once you've flushed the vat with water, you turn the floodgate crank one more time to empty it, dash up that ladder, down into the vat, and skedaddle through before it closes again.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

Thank you hagatha. I've climbed up that ladder a couple of times but didn't manage to go any further. nu2gaming

How many seconds do you have to get to that flood gate? As soon as I climb the ladder I can hear it closing. Am I having fun yet? nu2gaming

You have to get right up that ladder and down into the vat as soon as you can. I found that jumping down into the vat and then crouching while moving forward did the trick. The gate always started to come down before I got to it so I got injured going through.

Good morning; ok. I'll just keep trying. Speaking of injuries, I got a message when I started up the stairs of the sewer about suturing wounds. I clicked on the picture of Jack and different parts of his body and clicked on the sutures but I just get a clunking sound. Am I doing it wrong? nu2gaming
