A Scientist And Renegade Saved Game - sheldondsouza - 08-16-2007

After creating that mixture on the stands i have trouble getting back that is jumping from platform and walking the planks. Either fall of or accidentally hit the wall. I tried this more than 10 times. Really fed up. I did the worm chase in one go but i have huge problem here.

Please guys help

same here. what helped me was putting the gas canister (found in the chemical lab room) right at the last jump point before reaching Red. The second to last jump area (jumping down and then to the left, i found just moving down there is better than jumping down.

For me "blind" jumping worked.
I looked around to find the next platform, walked back a bit, then ran towards it, and when jumping, looked up straight.
This way, the chemicals were kept at safe distance from anything else.

that'd be quicker anyway. never tried it, but then again, i hate going blind Smile. I have noticed dying when jumping to the last, the jar or whatever is probably knocking into the ledge.

yes, breaking the vessel is the greatest danger. The jumping as such isn'T too difficult, but the chemicals detonate on touch.

Edit: I think I will create a savegame for the end of the jumping. Just for you ^^
Will take some time though

Edit 2: I still had a savegame just after crossing the chasms Smile

how do you create a video? this can be done under linux right?


RE: A Scientist And Renegade Saved Game - Thaliur - 08-17-2007

It can be done under Windows too.
There are some popular programs for this (fraps, gamecam and similar)

When jumping I just looked at the next platform, jumped at it. There's abosutely nothing you can hit the chemicals on, right? I just had a problem with when you move too fast holding em they explode.

When looking straight I bumped them on the planks sometimes.
It didn't happen very often, but it happened.

When I download this to my zip and it uncompresses. It says where to download? I put it to download into Penubra Episode1. It does download but as a completely different file and not included in the game itself. It won't open up in the game as it says a SAV is not a valid windows file.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks Thaliur
