Half life 2 help...

hey, been playin through this lately though i appear to have got stuck. im in the chapter "follow Freeman" where you have to destroy the 3 power generators to lower the shields etc

i've taken out 2 of them (the one in the middle, and the one off to the left i think where the room with all the holes in the wall are and the guards that seal you int hen cut through the door) but i cant get to the third one. i remember runnin round there with guards after me, i shot all but 1 of them, then as i was reloading one of the guards ran into the room and closed the big metal door. I've been runnin round this place for like 20 mins now and i cant find another way in.....cant even ram my way in

and to make matters worse, the last autosave point is when im way back in the factory before i rescue barney from the snipers in the street

any ideas??

Wasnt there one you got to through a room full of trip wires and hopper mines?

yeah thats the room i think, i saw 1 hopper in the door way, but the guard ran in and closed the door, so im stuck now??

AI is getting to clever he'll never come out now rofl!!!!

lol that mean i'll have to restart it from the stupid warehouse bit

well i guess its good incentive to just run through it beating anything that gets in my way with a crow bar or somethin, tryin to take some of my anger out on them. also this time make sure i disintigrate that bloody guard before he gets in the room this time!

unlucky dude prob just one of those things! save more is a good idea in half-life

lol thats the thing, it auto saved when i got outside and that ion cannon thing was firing at me, where i had to run round the courtyard to that building, but that auotsave seems to have disapeared??

i know it was there cos thats where i stopped it yesterday night, and carried on from today

Yeah, I think the autosaves get overwritten by another autosave when you get to further enough. You could just load the map through the console?
