#1. Climb up the ladder almost to the peak. The idea is to give yourself a slight bit of room between the top of your head and the ceiling.
#2. Do not attempt to clear the virtual space by jumping. Instead, move your viewing angle to face the the entrance of the duct while remaining stationary otherwise.
#3. Once you have the duct centralized on screen, proceed forward.
I believe that you should fall into the duct rather easily, at least, it works for me so far. I do not believe patches would change something this fundamental in the engine unless there was a bug that needed fixing. |
Firmly agreed. I can't say about the 1.0 bug, since I patched to 1.2 long before then, but you only have to jump in the first room to reach the first vent. The ones with the ladders, I've never even
tried jumping.
