************************************************************************
Level 1:Vortex Rikers
************************************************************************
The level begins when you wake up on a prison ship called the vortex
rikers. Get up and walk out of your cell, go into the middle cell on the
other side of the cell area. Pick up the bandages on the toilet. Exit
the cell and and go up the elevator on the left.
At the top there is a dead body and a universal translator, pick up the
translator and pick up the flare and the health pack in the cell on the
left. Now go back down the elevator and go into the dark end of the
room, there is a switch on the wall on the right, activate it and the
elevator your standing on will bring you down to the CHAIR, heh heh heh!
In this room just walk to the right of the glass and the guy there will
be electricuted, on the difficulty Hard and Unreal there are some good
stuff in this room. Now go back up the lift back to the cell area and up
to the second floor. Now look for a ventalation duct, just crawl into
the vent and crawl through to get to the bridge.
Walk into the door on the left. Now the floor here is very slippery, so
look at the top of the room and look for a switch, jump and hit the
switch. That will lower the forcefield around the Kevlar suit, get the
suit, armor, and go back the way you came. This time turn right and get
the medpack, then jump down to the hallway, be careful as you walk here,
the ship will shake and there will be some small explosions that might
seriously hurt you.
In the next room is the medical lab. Get all the medpacks in this room
and move on.
If you need it there are 2 medpaks in this room, then walk into the next
room. Walk up to the door and listen to what is going on in the next
room, you will here two prisinors get brutaly killed by some kind of
monster. When the door opens you will see the monster run away, you
can't catch it, pick up the dispersion pistol he drops and walk down the
hallway.
Walk all the way to a room with 2 large fans and a health station, if
you need it break the glass, then walk into the passage that is missing
one fan. On the other side activate the switch and quickly get on the
elevator that will take you to a door. Go into the next room and walk
into the smaller room, and shoot the switch on the western wall. That
will opn a trap door, jump down to exit the ship, and to the next level.
************************************************************************
Level 2:Nyleve's falls
************************************************************************
As soon as the level has finished loading walk forward and pick up the 2
flares on the floor. Turn left and follow the tunell to the exit. Now
you will be outside, a little rabbit will hop by, it is harmless. Look
right and go up the little slope, there are some clips up there. Now
turn around and head towards the house.
At the far end there is a pool of water, look for a blue light and swim
towards it, there is a clip down there. To get up just jump onto the
rock and jump to the surface.
Now pick up the automag on the ground in front of the entrance to the
house, and pick up any ammo that is around there, then walk into the
house and pick up all the flares, health packs, and clips. Now walk out
of the house and head toward the ship, go to the area behind it and walk
up the planks.
Head left towards the mouth of a cave, there are two orange flowers near
the entrance, these are Nali fruit, they have a healing affect of about
27. Anyway, walk into the cave, keep walking until you see a guy get
thrown up againsnt the wall, then run backwards, out of the cave and
wait for the 2 BRUTES to come out of the cave, strafe and shoot as they
shoot at you. Once they are both dead, go back into the cave and walk
into the now open door on the right. Head all the way down to the
elevator and ride it down, there, make your way out, there is another
brute at the end of the tunell waiting for you, kill him and continue,
walk down the board towards the house.
Go inside the house, you will see a meditating NALI there, don't kill
it, there is no reason, later on in the game the NALI help you, in this
house shoot all the barrels, in the one next to the door there is a
flashlight, only use the flashlight when you need it, it has limited
batteries. Now exit the house and look behind it, there is a cave
opening there, enter and kill any monsters hanging on the ceiling.
In the final room there is all sorts of usefull stuff, there are ammo
for the stinger, the tyrinium shards, and some armor, nedpaks, and s
flare. Once you have gotten everything head back towards the house and
go all the way back to were you were attacked by the 2 brutes. Go to the
hallway were you saw the man get thrown, there is an elevator there.
Take the elevator up to the end of the tunells, there is another brute
there and you will also be attacked by a flying creature.
Once outside head left and look for a metal opening, walk up the stairs
and you will be in a room with a lot of crates, ther is a brute in
there. There is some automag ammo and a super health pack(200 health)
(on easy mode only). Now walk out the other exit and kill the tentacle
creature and collect any ammo near that area. Now walk into the metal
door and turn left to enter the Arajigar Mine.

turn around, when you reach the top turn left to get some clips. Shoot
the tentacle creature above the lava.

the tentacle creature and shoot the 2 boxes in the corner near it. Pick
up the medpak and shield belt.
Continue to the end of the corridor. You are now in a big room with 2
switches and blue lights. Hit both switches and to turn off the
electricity. This will turn off a green forcefield, elsewere, but now,
continue until all the lights turn off, turn back the way you came and
you will see red flashing lights and a skaarj will attack you. Once you
kill it you can now exit, head towards the light, back to the main room.
Now, head into the other passage filled with a blueish color.
Run into the room, you will be attacked by a brute, kill it and head
into a metal opening. Walk along the corridor to the lift. Ride the lift
down and shoot the tentacle creature nearby. Walk down the hallway and

Go back towards the lava cavern and stop when the ground starts to
shake. Shoot the boxes on the left and get the stuff inside. Follow the
ledge and enter the hallway to the right. Pick up the medpaks. Stop
again before continuing, when the ground stops shaking, walk right and
enter the hallway on the left. Pick up the voice box from behind the
middle pillar, kill the skaarj that is nearby. Continue the way were the
skaarj came from, the hallway with the blue crystals. As you continue,
turn right then left, on the way pick up the tyridium shards.
There is a Nali at the next hall on the left. Immediately kill the
skaarj before he kills the Nali. Once the skaarj is dead, and the Nali
is not harmed, the Nali will open a secret doorway, beyond the doorway
is a little pocket, containing the stinger and some ammo for it.
Leave the room and turn right, once past the blue crystals, turn right.

to make a passage, go into the passage that leads to a control room, and
kill the brute. After you enter the room, walk up the ramp and turn left
