Entanglement Gun turrets won't work with the Harpoon/Spear!

My guess is that the cause of this problem is the spear from Sandtraps, even though I haven't used it to attack the turrets or anyone else. Is there a console command to activate the turrets or maybe even spawn a new set of friendly turrets? The second battle in particular is next to impossible without the turrets!
 
I dunno exactly what's happening, but enable god-mode if you need to get past that part.

Open console, type:
god
 
How did you get the harpoon to entanglement? I remember there was a vent in nova prospect you had to go thru and the harpoon was too long and had to be left behind at that point

it is possible to pass the harpoon through that vent. all you need patience and the grav. gun.
 
I know there is some bugs with the harpoon and turrets, impaling turrest will make your game crash 100% of the time.

IRL it wouldn't be possible, this means Source engine sucks :flame:
 
He asked to be banned thinking someone would care (!?)

So why was he banned if noone cared?
He asked to be banned, his warning level was already 8, then he signed up twice (so far) so he's banned permanently :)
 
erm... do you mean the battle in that long rectangular room with 3 turrets? there's an awesome way I know of getting past that, which doesn't require the turrets. First, look around the upper level until you see an area, behind the railing, that goes back a ways. Then, put three boxes in a row below that area. then, take two boxes, and put one on the middle box, and one on the box on the far right. After this, grab a barrel, and carry it as you jump up this box structure. Drop it on top of the far-right box, jump on top of it, and from there jump over the railing, into a higher area that's much easier to defend and impossible for the combine to get to. If the combine don't come, jump down, set up the guns (even if they won't work) and go back up.



If anybody else here knows what I'm talking about, and can make it easier to understand than my version, please explain.
 
erm..

where do you find the harpoon?

The first (and only time, on easy) i did this rectangular place i did not even know the turrets were on my side so i hid in one of the small rooms after "blowing up" the turrets. I hid and killed anything that came in the entrance of my room. I won with 16hp left and almost no ammo.
Now im in hard and i WILL use the turrets..
 
The harpoon is at the part before Nova Prospekt where you come across a campfire with a few zombies lying near it. The harpoon is on the ground there.
 
It was an object, not a weapon. Combined with the gravity gun it is pretty awesome.
