Half-Life: Blue Shift Hints
How do I set this machine for Dr. Rosenberg?
1 of 8: First, explore around the area until you're familiar with it.
2 of 8: Including the equipment cave.
3 of 8: Then find the little blue power box that's connected to the machine and use it to turn the power on.
4 of 8: Then go to the console that opens up and has two knobs on it.
5 of 8: Face each knob one at a time and press and hold the Use key to turn it.
6 of 8: Watch the green light / red light display next to the knob to see when it's positioned properly (the green light will come on, and you'll hear a sound).
7 of 8: The correct positions are always in the red zones.
8 of 8: Once you get them both set, the machine will come to life and several aliens will teleport in, including an alien grunt (you know, the hornet-firing kind).
