Half-Life 2 Hints
Supply Tips
1 of 4: After those manhacks are destroyed, find a ladder in the corner opposite the exit door and climb up to get to several supplies.
2 of 4: If you used an explosive barrel to blow up the manhacks, the boards leading across the room to the second supply area may be destroyed, but you can make the jump.
3 of 4: Or you can try to use the two non-explosive barrels in the room to build a little staircase next to one of the support beams, but it's hard, especially since one barrel will have to set on top of the other one so that you can jump onto a ridge on the bottom barrel.
4 of 4: Perhaps the easiest way is to climb the ladder, get off onto the ledge, jump onto the small raised ledge with the ladder top on it, and then make a running jump over the big, brown pipe and to the small platform with the wooden crates.
