Code for the chemical room to make the Volt formula?
Confused as hell, I wrote down all the numbers for the colored balls on the pool table... corresponded them to the lights on the keypad but it's still not working.

No. Just No! At least for the 1st playthrough don't search for help on the internet.

You have to light the lamps in the same room as the pool table. Take note of the symbols in each one and match them to the pool balls based on color. That should let you work out the keypad puzzle.

I usually avoid help as well, but I set a rule that if it takes me 3-4 hours and I still haven't been able to solve it... then I seek help. Metal Gear Solid 3 was an example. I never learned how to use the Revival Pill because they showed it in a tiny video during a codec call. I can be hard of hearing at times and so I was paying attention to the subtitles instead. Plus, that was a Kojima game. He loves to make you think outside of the box. Or on the back of the box.

Already completed it on GC countless times like 10 years ago kid. Just forgotten about this bit is all.

And there's no problem using a walkthrough for the formula of V-Jolt - it's a ridiculous 'puzzle' to begin with.

No one has aptly answered my query either about the keypad, even google struggles to find serious answers on it. I think most people just skip the V-jolt and fight the plant.

there's actually a room where you can find the numbers and colors for that keypad. its the room with the 2 spiders. you to light everything up, and find Billiard balls with the right colors for the key pad.

V-Jolt isnt that hard to make. In the room where you mix everything has the addition written on the wall, theres only 3 things that you can use 2 chemicals and water. it takes like 1 trial and error test to find out which of the 3 items in the room is which on the equations on the wall.

A friend of mine reported the same problem. Strangely, this also happens playing the game at the Dolphin emulator.

Edit: Damn. How memories can deceive us. xD Talking to my friend again, it seems that the colors on the panel only appear when playing on the easiest difficulty. -_-

I had the same bug. Code wouldn't work until I started mashing. Also this puzzle SUCKS for anyone whos color blind.

I know this is years late, but just in case someone else comes here with the same problem....

The colors appear on the keypad if you are playing on Easy or Very Easy iirc. If you are playing on Normal, Hard, or Real Survival mode, the colors will ALWAYS be light blue. This is because the entire reason you even take note of the eye lashes or "notches" on the eyes from the oil lamps is so you can associate it with a color. That color is then matched with the pool balls on the pool table. the color for the pool balls never change obviously, but the color that the eyes are associated does per each play through.

This means Jill's code will ALWAYS be a combination of 3, 5, and 6. Easy and Very Easy just make it so you can essentially bypass the oil lamps altogether where Normal and above make it so you have to take notes on what the oil lamps looked like so you can properly place 3, 5, and 6 in the correct order.

Hope this helps, and I realize someone above me said something to this extent, but this puzzle always annoyed the ♥♥♥♥ out of me when I was younger and even though I figured out the whole "just try different variances of 3, 5, and 6", I still wanted to know HOW the puzzle was solvable and what the logic was. Same goes for the armor room puzzle. I always just remembered the order and not how to solve it on a blind play through.

Also, Chris has a different combination of numbers to work with (don't remember what they are as I mostly play Jill), but it doesn't matter because Chris can't make the V-Jolt like Jill can... because apparently Capcom feels that his caveman brain isn't smart enough? I dunno.

as soon as you said it doesnt show you the color on harder difficulties I figured it out, I was freaking out for a sec lol
