I can't find...

...a new lens to replace the broken one from the food dispenser. Where do I get one?
Thanks.

You can find a new lens in the security camera that watches you
Spoiler
But you have to find a way to cover the camera first, so the guard guy can't see what you're doing

Dang, I already knew both things you told me. (Well, I suspected the first one and knew the second.) The essential problem then is...

...I can't reach the camera?
Tnx,

You can move the table... but make sure to push the table EDGE. ;)

When I trance-connect to the sick guy, how do I get rid of all the red infected nodes? ???

Spoiler
You don't have to get rid of *all* of them, just most of them. If there's only one red node, then that will count too. Sometimes, even I get stuck on nightmarish situations of chasing one node around - if you use "scramble", you can randomise it to something that might be more helpful.
I'm seriously in the edge of quitting this game and not looking back. I'm quite stuck on creating the wetware.
Spoiler
I've managed to move around the table and got the lens and burning paper, and i have made almost the wetware. But apparently mixing the fire heat with the cup won't do it, cause that'd be logical for once. Anyhow, I can't figure this out.

dual,
maybe it doesn't work because
Spoiler
the fire is not strong enough to make some nodes.
You should
Spoiler
add some paper to the bin; then make a "true" fire by adding the burning page.
After you just have to use the cup on it.
If it doesn't work, you forgot to add an ingrediant into the cup.
Maybe I've missed something obvious.
Spoiler
How do I power off the drone?
Nevermind, I figured it out.
Spoiler
I thought I had already talked to Guy, but clearly I hadn't. He gave me the solution.

The best I can do, is getting it down to 2 red nodes. :P

Yeah, I've never been that great at that kind of puzzle, they've always annoyed me. I just kept trying (a bit at random) until it finally got down to one node.
Still can't get past those red nodes. :(
Pity, cos I was really enjoying it up until that point. :-\ And the previous 2 Technobabylon games were brilliant. :)
Red nodes: I tried to
Spoiler
work from up left to the right and down. Klick on a spot below a red node in one of the upper rows. Klicking flips the nodes in the vicinity of the node klicked. So if you klick on the topmost red node, it is no good. Klicking the node below the topmost red node advances the whole thing
Ok, I'm stuck, and I'm way behind all the questions in here. :'(
Spoiler
I can't unscrew the bolts in the table with the coin, because the guy keeps coming to me.
I can't pry open the food dispenser with the utensil covered with rubber because it's too thick.
I can't use the documents on the broken light because the hole is not big enough.
I can't reach the camera, broken light or the vent.
I have:
cup with wetware, water and food.
food.
utensil covered in rubber.
documents.
coin.
'help' on wetware file.
What am I missing here???
i think you should

use the food to jam the camera
stuck a bit too :(
Spoiler
just got past the lens problem, but now the food machine says it requires maintenance. None of my objects seem to work :/
EDIT: nevermind
I actually found out the solution to the
Spoiler
unscrewing the bolts of the table
by reading the other solutions in this thread...sad thing is, out every puzzle in this episode, it's the only thing I have actually done in real life. ;D
i can't get the lens or trance connect with the guy.i blocked the screen and moved the tableand i can trance connect.istill can't connect with guy.whats wrong? help
a little hint about the lens:
(even if I don't really understand, why you are in need of it right now ;))
Spoiler
Latha is telling, that she can't open the camera with her (bare) hands â€" maybe you should try an item to pry it open
connecting wit Guy
Spoiler
After creating/repairing your wetware-modul you should be able to connect with the network-terminal.
If you already did this, you should be able to use the (now) activated trance-symbol from the inventory with Guy to connect to him.
i used the spoon and the token,the spoon is to thick and the token is used by the food machine..no luck.i got the trance symbol and she trys to use it on him she said he is sick so she dosen't use it
I am not really sure, if I understood what you did already,
so I am kind of "fishing in the dark" with it, but
have you already tried to get medical help for Guy?
hi folks..i am ready to scream..i have had several episodes where i got it down to 2 red nodules! but for the life of me..and my patience..i am ready to chuck this game..can anybody explain the methode to this madness..is there any rhyme or reason to get the nodule down to 1? why is this so tough? at least for me it is..i was enjoying this game til then..i noticed even the maker of the game has had fits of frustration chasing the nodules down to one..am i missing something? is this pure chance? pure luck? some of the methodology that worked for me, to a certain point, was getting the nodules in a triangle shape...
so please let me know if anybody has a clue or what worked best, but from the thread topic i have noticed no sure fire way..but why oh why??
thx..rrd

I had the same problem. I just could NOT beat those red nodules, no matter how many times I tried. :-\ I finally gave up, and haven't looked at it for a while. :( It's a shame, cos like you, I was really enjoying the game up until that point. And Parts 1 & 2 were really good.
I'm aware of how frustrating those puzzles can be, I was again able to solve it pretty quickly though.
The key is to move the red nodes towards the corners; if you manage to end up with the corner node and its two neighbors being red, a click on the corner node removes all three.
Here's a savegame immediately after the puzzle: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/995571/agssave.006
Just rename the extension to another number if you need and put it in ".../[My ]Documents/My Saved Games/Technobabylon 3/"
Note that:
Spoiler
after clearing the red nodes there's a short scene in which a huge molecule appears and the bound guy communicates a short message about needing adrenaline. Then you automatically leave the trance. Saving isn't possible during this scene.
hi folks..believe it or not i gave it one more try,after some encouraging words by Tabata, and got it down to 2 again..and then i got the nodules side by side and bang...i had accomplished it! i cannjot tell you how happy, and how loud i yelled...that is what makes us play these adventure games..made by devilish geniuses..so to all that helped and encouraged me thank you..and to the poor souls who are still languishing with this one puzzle please soldier on! the angst was long but the reward is so fine!
peace..rich

Edit:
I now found a hoster where I can upload a savegame-file. :)
So if you are using the games-version from 10th of April 2011, you should be able to put it into the savegame folder of TB3. It will give you the chance to solve this puzzle by one last click and watch the following cut-scene. ;) You can download it here (http://www.mediafire.com/file/sbn6nb2x4br6rzo/agssave.011) - if I did it correct. :o
hi guys..hate to bother you, but i am in the motorized command drone room..can move the guy around ok, but i hate to say this..i forgot what i am so supposed to do in there! i can get to the green square..been to the red square..been to the elevator looking place or double doors...cannot back out there..and cannot see how to get directions for this place..
what can i say..i am over 50 and have gray hair...so somebody give me a clue of what to do!
thx again..rich

Spoiler
You have to „code“ the whole way for the drone in oder to reach first to the green aerea, then downloading, then moving to the red aerea and at least press execute to start the run you coded.
This way you/the drone will reach the next room (if you did it correct) - good luck ;D
btw. please don't change the subject (other users are searching for the original one) - Thx
How can I
Spoiler
remove the face of the food machine
I am not sure, if I understand you the correct way
(sorry - I am not english),
but it seems to me, that you didn't ...
Spoiler
call for medical help
Hope, that will do ::) - good luck!

Here's a link to the easier version - you only need six nodes for this one, for anyone having problems!

Hello, I really need hint, someone posted the same problem earlier too, but no one responded, everyone keeps talking about some kind of nodes or what. I am in the first room, and I cant make wetware. When I try anything that bald headed idiot comes and I have to stop. I am really beginning to feer urge to dump the game and never play anything similar again. >:( >:( >:( I have
Cup with water wetware and food
Spoon with a piece of gum
papers
tokens
food
info about wetware

Oh sorry, there was actually reply, I just missed it, I am here for the first time, and the environment seems a bit chaotic to me. ??? But I still think there should be a walkthrough, eh?
Again, a great episode, and the plot thickens!
And as I understand it, TB4 is underway? :)
Not sure if this has been answered yet, but I'd appreciate your help, since I'm hopelessly stuck in this game for quite some time now and I'm under the impression I've tried everything there is to try (although obviously I haven't):
Spoiler
How do I unscrew the table? I've read something about a coin, but I already tried to use the food dispenser token on the table and all I get as a reaction is "It apparantly fell off the table once before" etc. etc. Is the "coin" something else than the "token"? If so, where and how do I get the "coin"?
@Three-Headed Monkey:
Minor hint:
Spoiler
You overlooked something.
Better hint:
Spoiler
Take a close look at the table.
Good hint:
Spoiler
Look at EVERYTHING about the table...
Almost solving it:
Spoiler
...expecially its bottom.
Solution:
Spoiler
Undo the screws in the base with the token. Yes, it's a pixel hunt. :-(
Thanks, Tamanegi!
Spoiler
I had actually seen the bolts and tried to click on them but I guess my mouse cursor missed the exact spot for the "bolt" tag to appear. Now I managed to find it, unscrew the table and push it away, only to realize that I still have no clue how to remove the front of teh food dispensing machine, heh.
Someone should consider writing a walkthrough for this game. I managed to play through parts 1 and 2 without help last year (IIRC), but judging from my own experience and those of others in this thread, TB3 is a lot harder to solve ...
