The blue key and red key paths are mirror images of each other and are accessed from opposite ends of the start room.

Use the magnetic accelerator to return back to the start room, cross to the other end of it, and go down the magnetic accelerator on that side.

Repeat the steps you took to get to the blue key. The only difference (beside it being a mirror image of what you've seen before) is what was a non-keyed door on side \"A\", is the blue-keyed door on side \"B\".

when you go through that red door, go down that accelerator that will take you to the end of the map.. dont go through the other door.

tried that and now i have totally no where to go :oops:

http://bond.sitesled.com/more.zip

and you did'nt say anything about the difference in maps i was talking about .. when we enter the doors where we have to shoot the generators there is just a solid wall at the left and an elevator at the bottom and in your case we have an elavator at the left side and nothing at the bottom .. hows that?? or maybe your ship was turned that way or this was due to a patch which you've installed??

okay, you are right where you need to be.

see those glowing generators, blast em. there are 12 total. then once you kill those, kill the generator pipes in the middle of each set of six.


now the red reactor will be exposed. get down inside the hole and sit next to the reactor, start shooting at it. after about 5-6 times, GB will give you a message saying to finish it off, you can leave the hole and destroy it, PRESTO, your done and a forcefield directly infront of you will drop letting you leave the level.

DO NOT FIRE AT THE REACTOR OUTSIDE OF THAT HOLE!! IT WILL KILL YOU!!!

Rule of Thumb: if you can see the reactor, it can see you, unless you are directly next to it in its own little hole. if it can see you, it can kill you.
