hello oh brave ones. I am presently trying to get to the docs in the underground x18 lab. Because I am so scared down there, of the snorks (?) which I can't kill, and the fire thing in the room down the corridor, I can't explore to find the suit and the body with the PDA which holds the key code ( I got all this from a walk through), and the walk through has given me two code numbers, neither of which work, so I guess I will have to find the body and the locker with the suit in - but it creeps me out to tackle the fire monster and I always get killed by the snorks - but clearly you have managed it; what am I doing wrong and have I overlooked something?
I should add that I am using the complete 2009 mod, which seems to be working perfectly on Windows seven 64 bit - but I see that someone else has had an access violation at the point of entering the code, so maybe the code is correct but I have a bug.

In order for the code to the first door to work, you need to get to the body first. Kinda backwards, but that's how it is.
Good luck offing those snorks.

Leave the fire thingy alone and it should ignore you too. Dem snorks on the other hand... Use the knife!

um, dont think so - but whatever, it didn't work and I got finished off again. And then I found I did NOT have a knife after all - must have sold it. So I have been all over the place, including back to the barkeep, looking for someone to sell me a knife - but no-one seems to have one for sale. I wasn't quite so scared this time ( I am a lady btw), and I have been on Youtube looking at Chernobyl and Pripyat as they are now, with all the wildlife flourishing normally in the zone - not a monster in sight - which sort of helps. What a wimp I am hey - but if anyone knows where I can purchase a knife I would be pleased to know, else I feel I am stuck.....

I have just realised that I am probably posting in the wrong topic as this is not really about mods now that I know the complete 2009 mod has not changed the code - I shall begin a new thread if (when!) I need to ask for help again - but meanwhile, if anyone knows where I can buy that knife...ta

I don't know much about C2009, but the knife is a good tool against most beasties. If you find your dying a lot, maybe invest in more medkits? And aim for the snorks head.
As for random post, we have the bar which has been a little to quiet and fre... Yeah the bar.

You didn't happen to get the rapid AK did you? I found that quite useful, it's located in Strelok's stash. I never thought snorks could be that difficult...
Also what weapons and armor are you using?

I do have the rapid fire AK, and a scope, but found just blatting away with that did not kill them - and there is no time for measured aim. So I tried the shotgun, as suggested, and killed one after several re-loads. Next I would try a knife, except I haven't got one and can't find one for sale anywhere. As for Snork's being difficult or not - it's ME I am sure - just haven't got the knack of dealing with them yet. I was the same in Fallout - hopeless, until I got used to it and got a decent weapon ( or six)

The best tactic with snorks is side stepping their lunge attack and blasting them as they land you may need to adjust the speed of your horizontal axis, also try luring one away. Or using grenades if you get desperate...
