Dog's ball in Ravenholm

[FireStarter]

To be honest, this is the first I've heard of calling it Frank.

Also, there's a member on that link named "ultimate_timmeh". What the hell.

How to get Frank (Dog's Ball) past the invisible wall before Nova Prospect


I just figured out how to get Frank into Nova Prospect just now, replaying HL2 for another whack in January 2009...

1. Take the ball and put it against the invisible wall

2. Walk past the ball down the hall. Ball will try to chase but cannot

3. Rumble... ceiling collapses! Ball is STILL VISIBLE.

4. Map change before you can do anything.

5. Frank is still visible. New map. NO INVISIBLE WALL.

6. Pick up ball and continue forward...

ALSO, to immediately crash Half Life 2 (Orange Box)...

Throw or touch Frank on a barnacle tentacle.

It looks like they never planned on having Frank interact with barnacles so the game will INSTANTLY bomb out to the desktop. I am doing this quite repeatedly well in Nova Prospect in the water room with barnacles on the ceiling.


_____________________________


Frank doesn't drown in shallow water.

That water room is a good example. The water is about 2-3 ft deep and Frank happily rolls around in it without exploding.

I would love to see some screen shots of getting it past nova prospect. Can you post them. I feel way to lazy to bring Frank all the way back there again.
