Route Kanal Second Train Stuck
I don't know if any one else is having this issue but I just reinstalled Halflife 2 on my computer and everything works fine execpt the second train in Route Kanal. When the train spawns I can see it moving toward me, but when it hits the second electric fence it just stops. So when you get to the point when you have to walk across the tracks down into the canals theres a train in the way. Anyone know if there is a fix for this. I have opted in and out of the beta thingking it would fix it but no luck.

Im ruinning 64 bit Windows 7.

Found the fix... lowering the settings down to minimal and the train doesnt get stuck.

Interesting, it's a workaround for sure but not really a fix IMO as you have to lower your settings to get it to work.

Do you think it's the graphics drivers for you card ?

I was playing it at max settings , then reached the same problem train is stuck and i die if i pass in front of it" the rain is like stuck not moving so if i try to pass in front of it i just die",. Tried your solution lowered everything to the minimal but still got the same problem. Any other suggestions ?

starting a new game at route kanal works

After restarting the game a couple of times it worked, have no clue why it was happening though.

Another bug... happened to me, too.

Same here. Restarted on Route Kanal, but same problem. Using -vr switch for the Rift, could that create the bug ?

I'm not using the vr, and I'm still getting the glitch, and I'm pretty sure it started after the last update

I don't know if its a driver issue. I think its a glitch in the game when the settings are on high. But hopefully they will figure out why its happening.. I have played a few more hours since it happend and I have not ran into any more problems yet. But for any one having the issue looks like lower your settings all the way and then restart the level and the train shouldn't get stuck.

I also had that bug on 64Bit Vista. After replaying the last bit before the train the problem disappeared.

Sorry to resurrect this thread from the dead... but the problem continues to persist. I have tried the above suggestions with no prevail, started a new game, even reinstalled the game. Nothing works for me.

Another temporary fix for this issue:

Right click on "Half Life 2" from your games list
Select "Properties"
Select "Launch Options"
Type "-console"

Now when you run the game you will have access to the console. Press "~" to open the console in game and enter "buddha". It's like god mode, you won't die. Walk past the train on the right side, then follow the same steps to disable it ( or don't :D: ). The train will eventually move on and you can continue the game.

You type "sv_cheats 1" first, but you will not be able to get achievements for that run
