DOOM 3 Hints

How do I use this teleporter in Teleporter Station 1?

  • 1 of 9: On the far side of the room is a control station.
  • 2 of 9: One of the computer panels needs you to click on it to transfer control to that station.
  • 3 of 9: Do so, then look at a screen a bit to the right of it that rises up.
  • 4 of 9: Click on "Scan for Active Pads" to get it to come up with a list of possible teleport destinations on its map display.
  • 5 of 9: There will be only two destinations from this site: Pad 1 Main and Pad 2 Balcony.
  • 6 of 9: Pad 1 is the pad that's just across the floor, so teleporting there is a waste of time. Instead, choose Pad 2, which is up on the nearby balcony that you can't otherwise get to (since the stairs that lead there are blocked by alien sludge growths).
  • 7 of 9: To do the choosing, either click on the "Pad 2 Balcony" button to the right of the map or on the solid white circle near the bottom right of the map.
  • 8 of 9: That'll get the ol' teleporter energies flowing, so go to the pad and hit the activation panel to get 'ported.
  • 9 of 9: NOTE: You'll encounter two other teleporters on this level that you'll need to use in order to progress. They all work the same: find the transfer-control panel and use it, scan for possible destinations, choose a destination, and then go activate the pad.
