3. Walkthrough NET:Zone

3.1 Destination Platform

Upon entering the game, you find yourself in a strange and eerie cyberworld, containing floating
platforms and weird machines docking by them. As you look around this mysterious environment, you
are greeted by the Central Dome computer, who announces your entry into the Genecys Zone, and
requests user identity authentication.

· Click on the flashing connector.
The authentication process is run. You are henceforth identified by the computer as Zel Winters,
Maintenance Engineer. The computer will ask you to check your mail for your daily task schedule.

· Click on the 'mail' function of your P.D.A.
There you will find the daily task schedule as well as an email message from your father's
hacker pal 'J.P.', telling you he has found a back door to the main computer and hacked
analysis software, able to be used throughout the Genecys Zone.

3.2 Zeppelin Platform

· Click onto the Zeppelin platform (located to the extreme right of your screen)
When this process is complete, locate the screen nearest to you displaying the CYCORP logo. Click
the play button and a corporate advertisement for CYCORP will run. Towards the end of this
advertisement, a recorded message made by Zel Winters, will interrupt the advertisement and you will
hear your father explain in more detail, the trouble he and global computer networks are in, and how
you must help. This message will be stored as a recording in your P.D.A.

Zel has included a recording taken of his enemy Walter Sayle, at a meeting with his creations, The
Disciples. This recording reveals his plans, and explains that he has taken the databank of Zel
Winters and placed it under the guard of The Disciples. Zel tells you that your mission is to
reconstruct him as an artificial life form, so that he can help you defeat Walter Sayle. First, you
must locate the databank and free it from The Disciples' control. This second recording will
also be stored in your P.D.A..

On the Zeppelin Platform there are 2 interfaces, symbolized by flashing spheres:
One is by the Zeppelin vehicle, and one is located in the center of the platform.

· Click on the GCN (Global Communications Network) interface located in the center of
the Platform.
You will be asked to enter a code.

· Enter D E A D
(As per J.P.'s email message).You will access the GCN Site.

· Click on the J.P. Site
You will receive a message from J.P. telling you to click on the search icon.

· Click on the search icon.
The Diagnostic Module Enhancer will be downloaded to your P.D.A. Combine the Diagnostic Module
(already used by you as the 'maintenance engineer'), with the Enhancer, by dragging one
icon and placing it on top of the other. The E.D.M. will be stored in your inventory. The E.D.M. is
a testing software which gives you the ability to operate vehicles in the Genecys Zone.

· Exit site and the GCN screen will appear.

· Press the logoff button

· Click on the door and enter
You arrive at the central hub of the Design Facility, and come across The Disciples guarding the
pyramid underneath Zel Winters' databank.

· Walk around the edge of the room until you find the 'Auricle' speaker

· Connect to it and bring up the inventory

· Select the icon representing the recording of Walter Sayle's speech to The
Disciples.

· Run it.
The recording will play over the Auricle. The Disciples will flock to the base of the stairs,
believing Walter Sayle is once again giving them orders. When they hear him say "now
leave" they will believe this is a direct order, and vacate the Central Hub, leaving Zel's
databank unguarded. The databank will be downloaded to your P.D.A.

3.5 The Design Facility: Laboratory

· Walk around the edge of the room until you find the bridge.

· Extend the bridge by clicking the button near it.

· Walk across the bridge to the other side of the pyramid

· Locate the elevator door and click on the button.
You will be taken down to the Design Laboratory, where you will
find a room containing terminals and overhead units.

· Locate the overhead unit next to terminal DL-01 and click on the button

· Drag the radix capsules (basic unit of CY-11 neural network) into your inventory.

· Connect to terminal DL-01 or DL-02
It will indicate that there is a terminal malfunction.

· Click on 'inventory' and then click on E.D.M.

· Run E.D.M.
Terminal is diagnosed.

· Click 'Fail'
'Maintenance Procedure' is automatically activated.
Screen will split with faulty components of the terminal displayed in the upper screen.

· Drag functioning components (not marked by 'X') to the lower screen.

· Connect to other functioning terminal (either Dl-01 or DL-02, depending on previous
choice)

· Repeat the above procedure.

· Fix one terminal by combining the functioning components of the second terminal with
the first. This

(NB: You may need to use the scroll button in the inventory in order to access some items).

· Press 'reset' button.

· Choose one of the radix capsules in your inventory and press 'run'.
The radix will transform into a cygote.

· Connect to the Holographic Simulation Pod (located in the center of the Lab)
You will be asked to choose a cygote for simulation.

· Select a cygote from your inventory and press 'run'.
Process will fail due to the lack of a 'lexicon' component (lexicon is part of the
CY-11's memory module, and has been trapped within another facility system due to recent
malfunctions within the Genecys Zone).
