Problem in Delta Labs Sector 1
I restored power, the objective updated but the elevator I need to take won't work. Am I missing something or is this a bug? I do not want to restart the whole game for this...

Did you activate the elevator before you reset the power? that's what I did. Saw the blank normal "service suspended screen" Just wondering if i need to restart the level too. :|

I don't know, but it's possible.

I have been reading on forums and I'm afraid the Lawn Mower Man is right, we're ♥♥♥♥♥♥. This didn't happened when I played the original Doom 3, and the new and stupid saving system doesn't allow to restart just the level. Oh, a touch of Bethesda!

I restarted the reactor core and the elevator service came back online, I didn't get stuck, but i made multple saves just in case.

I'm griping about this too. This means I've gotta recollect all of those stupid PDAs and video disks. I'm guessing that 47 is right on about using the elevator doors before turning the reactor on, and that that causes the elevators to read "low power." No console means you can't reload the level, so I've gotta start all over again. AGAIN. :cgpout:

Just hit this bug while going through the game using BFG VR : Fully Possessed mod. Went through the whole level two times until nothing was left spawning.

For anyone hitting this bug as well: I used the following way to exit the level in as close to normal a game state as possible:
1. walk up to the elevator.
2. open the game's command console (using ~), enter "noclip", close console.
3. you can now walk through the closed elevator doors. The elevator will be there.
4. re-open the command console and enter "noclip' again to turn off no clipping mode.
5. now press the button inside the elevator to go the next level as if nothing happened :)

Is this the part with the box that's blocking the lift? That bit caused a huge problem for me the first time.

Nope, different elevator. That box you best just "walk into" the elevator. It might mess up those doors otherwise.

Yes I learned that the hard way. The trick is to shoot the box or move it out of the way of the door.
