Properties. In target, add -console onto the end of the command line.

Q.Where's the Hornet Gun?
A.I think it's found after desceding from an elevator, I think in the trip mine room.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Q.I've gotten to the center of XEN, but can't get anything other than the spider web looking thing to the right of the entrance to smash!
I've exhausted all my ammo and hit everything at least 70 times but the only release of flying yellow things were those trapped inside/ behind the spider web.
What is the trick??
Do you mean the glowing yellow things or the roof vent looking things?
Any suggestions?
A.It's the brownish, stemmy mushroom thingies. It's not the spider web,
I'm sure of that, if you've hit everything, you should have come across them by now. Use your crowbar. Remember, brown mushroom thingies.

Q.Hello. I have the game of the year edition of Half-Life. About the
CONSOLE codes. I got the console thing to work the first time, but now I can't even get the console to come down. I went back and re-typed the target also. Got any suggestions?
A.Um, re-installing may help, otherwise try running from a DOS prompt.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Q.dear friend, please tell me how do you perform the longjump ?
A.Um, I think you run, then press crouch and then jump. You must have acquired a long jump module first.

Q.Hey, I hope I'm not asking a stupid question here...but I was reading your great Half-Life walkthrough up to "Surface Tension". It's the scene in which you jump off the bridge to avoid the chopper, climb the ladder, hit the switch, and then go find a red wheel underwater.
There's only one problem, I can't find the wheel! I've looked all over the place underwater and I just see the red grates, but no wheel. If you could help, what is the idea of a precise place of where the wheel is.
Thanks, and keep writing great FAQ's for great games.
A.The wheel? Hmm...from my memory it's down at the very bottom. You turn it and the gates should open. I had no trouble, I remember it being quite visible.
From Mike:
Hello again! I'm that strange person that came by and said he couldn't see the wheel under the water in Half-Life. I recently saw your latest
FAQ for Half-Life and saw my question. What I don't think you included was my alternative way to see the wheel, and that was to turn off 3D acceleration whenever you hit water. It looks like crap compared to glorious 3D, but it works!
Another possible solution is that I tried a new program called GLSetup by accident while installing a demo. It installed the latest drivers on my Intel i840 for Voodoo or GL 3D modes. I ran GL Mode in Half-Life, went to the Hazard Course and swam into the water to be surprised that
I could actually see through the water! I think the website is http://www.glsetup.com and I'd invite anyone to try the latest download if they are having trouble viewing the water in the game.

Q.Hello shinra9. I recently printed your walkthrough off
Gamsages.com. It's very good, but I have not been able to get through the game yet and I would like to use the cheats. When I Re-Installed it, I when to Browse and typed in: C:\hl.exe -console. It worked and now when I go into Half-Life there's a little thingie that says
CONSOLE at the top left of the screen. But try as I might, when I click on CONSOLE it says it's loading but it never finishes! I forgot about it and went into NEW GAME. But while I was in the game, I could hear it but not see the actual game!
A.Try loading up a game, then pressing ~ instead of clicking on console.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Q. In the level Apprehension, where is the crossbow?
A. The crossbow is on top of the big cage, hanging in the middle of the murky water.
