Half-Life Hints
Which way should I take through the conveyor maze?
1 of 6: Basically, the maze is pretty straightforward.
3 of 6: If the path seems to dead-end, there is probably a tangent conveyor nearby. Always look for new conveyors below and behind you.
4 of 6: You will know when you have made it through the maze when you come to some set tripmines in some conveyor tunnels. Detonate both of them and move on to the next area.
5 of 6: To shortcut the maze and avoid fire damage from one area, you should go against the flow on the first conveyor belt you drop down onto past the area with the horizontal pistons and vertical smashers. You'll soon end up at the tripmine area.
6 of 6: The best way to deal with the tripmines is to shoot the first one with the handgun, then toss a C4 satchel on the belt and let it go until it drops out of sight, then detonate it. That should take care of the tripmine around the corner.
