AI PARTNER'S MOVEMENT AND ORDERS AI partners may choose to move with you, or they may wonder off on their own. Their actions may even change based on your own status or progress through the scenario. APPEAL to AI partners using the right analog stick. Of course, just like real people, they have their own personalities and they may not always be willing to follow orders.

Evacuation Order To the citizens of Raccoon City: This is an important bulletin from the Raccoon City Police Department. Incidents of riots and looting are being reported around the city at an alarming frequency. We are doing a that we can to bring the city under control and quell the riots, but we recommend that citizens evacuate the area to ensure their safety. We are dispatching helicopters to the following locations. Please bring proper ID and assemble here: Place: Zoo front gate tram terminal Time : Today at 10 AM. 3 PM. 6PM. 9PM (tentative schedule) This area will soon be cordoned off, so civilians are advised to disperse immediately. Please follow all orders and, above all, remain calm. Raymond Douglas Raccoon City Police Department Joseph's Notebook I guess it's only natural to start forgetting things after having been gateeeper here for 20 years. Take that code to the back gate that they change each month, for exampe. It's ony 5 digits, but I still forget it. I figure the best way is to just set the lock to the first 5 digits of the serial number written on the back of it. That way, all I have to do is flip the lock over and read the number. That might seem irresponsible, but I couldn't imagine anyone actuay figuring out that the combination is written right on the ock. The problem is whether or not I'll remember. God, I'm getting old... Repair Notification Notice of completion of repairs. The previousy reported problem with the flow of electricity within the zoo has been repaired. A test wil be run at 9:30 AM to double-check the system. The 5 affected areas are as follows: 1) Elephant STage gate mechanism 2) Terrarium Dome panels 3) Front shutter mechanism 4) Stage lighting system 5) Crane mechanism There has been a circuit breaker set up in the office for testing purposes. After the test, power will be routed through normal means. Matthew Reagon, Maintenance Head Elephant Keeper's Diary When I was cleaning up the junk around here, I came across an old BGM tape. I played it to see what it was, and it was the old zoo parade theme. According to old man Joseph, there used to be a big elaborate parade in which they outfitted elephants in Christmas lights up until about 15 years ago. He says Oscar was the star of that parade for years. I let Lloyd have a listen, and he's convinced that it'll be worth money someday. He said I should dub it while I still have the chance. I think he's nuts, but it might be a good idea to copy it for pasterity. Oscar sure has been acting strange lately. He's not sick or anything, but he just won't calm down. He got so excited at feeding time today that he broke part of his cage. Nothing like that's ever happened before. Maybe I'd better have the vet take a look at him. Lloyd's been put on "emblem duty" this week, so he'll have to stick around longer than usual. He won't stop bitching about it, but he's got it easy, really. The dome is close to the front gate, after all. Speaking of which, I guess the dome is getting shut down toward the middle of next month. They're too damn cheap to tear it down, so it'll probably just sit there for years and rust. What a waste. Message From Management Lloyd: The new front gate locking mechanism is kind of a pain. Ever since the incident, the folks that live around here have been clamoring for tighter security. We have to listen to them. Anyway, first you've got to check the office to make sure the main power is on. Then, you need to put the emblems in the 2 lion status. That activates the lock. Be sure to store the emblems seperately. Don't forget the password for the electrical system, too. It's changed every week, so be on your toes. This week, it's K306. I know it's a pain, but I'm counting on you, Lloyd. Raccoon Zoo Management Employee Evaluation Form August evaluations: John Murphy BB Lloyd Stewort B Susan Fischer A Patrick Reyes B Kim Derek CC Joseph Murrows AA Austin Tayor D Matt Smith B Maggie Nodle BB Notes: I don't know about that Austin. He's a good hunter, but I don't like him bringing his gun to the Observation Deck. I told him to take it home and he agreed, but he seemed angry.

Comet News October 31, 1996 "Body Washes up on Shore of Aimes" Alyssa Ashcroft, staff reporter. The body of an unidentified white male has been found in the Aimes River in the northwest Arklays. At least half a year has passed since the man died, so the body has been impossible to identify. Powerful steroids, along with other drugs, were found in the body, and police are suspecting foul play. The river has ong been used by local pharmaceutical companies as a dumping ground, and links to illegal activities in connection to that have not been ruled out. Memo to Alyssa Miss Ashcroft: There's something I need to tell you concerning my recent contact with you. At the bestiary in the zoo (where the Giraffes, Baboons, and Orangutans are) there will be a new junge exhibit built called the Terrarium Dome. It will contain over 750 species of rare plants. Money Scoop June 1, 1998 "Raccoon Zoo's Bootlegging Disgrace" Alyssa Ashcroft, staff writer. A recent inquiry into the finances of Elliot Martin (67), chairman of the local zoo's board of directors, has revealed shocking news. The Washington Treaty specificaly prohibits the trade of rare orchid specimens, but Martin has repeatedly defied this ruling, according to an anonymous tip from within the zoo. If this is true, many questions arise regarding the funds derived from these sales. Is this new flora exhibit truly a place for children to dream and learn, or is merely an illegal money-making scheme?

Anyway, first you've got to check the office to make sure the main power is on. Then, you need to put the emblems in the 2 lion statues.

I'm truly sorry. 0325 Connector Manual Manually disengaging the connector: Usually, the connector is disengaged via the controls at the driver's seat, but manual disengagement is possible in emergency situations. By removing the cover on both sides of the connector, the connection is disengaged. To do so, insert the 2 emblems that operate as a key to the mechanism. Match them up to the joints in back and insert. This operation should only be attempted in emergencies. Removing the emblems from storage and transporting them without due cause is strongly discouraged. Warning The cause of last month's onboard fire has been determined. When the train made an emergency stop to avoid hitting debris on the track, a short circuit occurred in the brake system's power supply. To prevent further accidents in the future, a policy has been developed to cut all power to the tracks in the event of an emergency stop. Only after the situation is under control will power be restored. To activate the emergency electrical supply, power must be rerouted via the breaker room. Each section is requested to run routine maintenance and checks to ensure preparedness. The Stationmaster Old Pamphlet Kite Bros Railway (KBS) Guide Pamphlet April, 1989 20 years have passed since this line opened here in Raccoon City in 1969. In that time, it has enjoyed the potronage and support of all of Raccoon's citizens. When the Kite brothers first started this line, it ran only a mile and had 3 stops. Thanks to the city's economic rejuvenation by the Umbrella corporation, it now has 8 stations and stretches 8.5 miles. Progress continues at our company as we strive to provide the excellent service that our passengers deserve. Please accept the heartiest of thanks. S. Gordo. KBS PR Dept Raccoon Today September 11, 1998 UMA in the Arklay Mountains? An enormous insect measuring an estimated 6 feet and sporting a formidable set of pincers has been spotted in the West Arklay region. Campers recently reported the sudden appearance of 2 or 3 of the beasts near their tent, crawling low to the ground. Their hunting dog was attacked and spent 2 weeks under a veterinarian's care. Graham Barrows (52), an entomologist and assistant professor at Raccoon University, insists that no such insect could possibly exist. He refers to the rash of sightings as "Nothing more than mass hysteria." Daily Raccoon August 30th 1996 A failed breakout was reported early this morning at the Douglas Prison. Outdated security and a poor infrastruture are to blame for the 4th such incident this year. Kyle Brendan (34) is said to be an acquaintance of Derek Azula (31), and it is suspected that Azula masterminded the escape plot. Azula's lawyers, however, refuse to comment on the incident. Wonderful Life "Wonderful Life" September Edition Making the most of Raccoon City's social scene! Notice of limitation of water service.

Also bear in mind that the use of special purifying chemicals warrants extra caution in keeping children and pets away from open sewer access points. Maintenance Form Request: Replace valve pipe in pump room. Various pipe repairs throughout. Problems: Overflowing toilets, water supply shortage. Notes: When the valve is closed, water from the fire prevention system is diverted and the sprinklers fail to function properly. This should be fixed as soon as possible.

As a result, an electronic lock system has been installed to guard against further theft. For the item being, the lock can only be controlled from a special room. In the unlikely event of a power failure, the lock will engage automatically, but resetting power in the breaker room unlocks it. It is regrettable that such precautions had to be taken. I expect everyone to thoroughly and sincerely consider their actions from now on. The Stationmaster Kurt's Notebook The more I find out about that hospital in the mountains, the more unsettling the whole thing becomes. Details about mysterious patient deaths are never reported and details on drug suppliers and routes are buried too deely to uncover. There is no doubt that the local pharmacy chain "Drugs Inc." is entangled in the mess as well. The trail is getting harder and harder to follow. What can I do to get to the bottom of this mystery? I've devised a plan. First, I must collect as much evidence as I can. It's likely that experimental drugs are being illegally tested in that hospital. I need to get my hands on some of these drugs and get out. With hard evidence like that on my side, they won't be able to deny anything. But I'm not up against amateurs. I must exercise caution. Tomorrow night. I'm going to pay the hospital a little visit. It could be dangerous, but someone has to stow them that money and influence isn't the only kind of power out there... Doctor's Confession I can hardly recognize this place. Perhaps the plants are subject to the experimental drugs' effects. All I know is that I will die today. I will go to hell to pay for what I have done. I was one of the doctor's involved in the experiments here. The test drugs supplied by Umbrella were routinely administered to patients and results returned to the company. We were trading human lives for money. Their scheme had run off the tracks. They were completely out of control. I've only recently come to know that the data is apparently being used by Umbrella for the development of biological weaponry. We are all criminals here, but the Administrator alone had the ultimate motivation in his wife. Her disease had been declared incurable, and the prognosis had driven him to try any and all means to help her. It wasn't long until the police got wind of the illegal drug imports, but they never pressed charges as threatened. That's when I first became aware of Umbrella's power. They even control the police. After what happened with the reporter, we thought the hospital could not longer slide beneath the media's radar. We were wrong. Money makes the world go round, and it also keeps people quiet. It's been 5 years since then. I've moved on. Move away from Raccoon. But I still hear the screams. They never stop. Perhaps this insanity is some sort of divine punishment for my crimes against humanity. I doubt anyone will ever read this, but it doesn't matter in the end. Nothing matters now. I've had enough of this. All of it. All I want now is sweet release. Alan Admin's Diary 2 Since she's gotten her vines around that "treat", her growth has been incredible. She's already consumed nearly the entire building and her appetite is only growing. Three more today. Campers. Young, practically kids. The arrogant pricks think the world owes them a favor, spoiled rotten bastards that they are. Kids today are all like that. They said they were lost. I offered to guide them. I took them down the current path. Perhaps the only time they've done anything right in their miserable lives. One more during the day, and another this evening. One of the bastards had a shotgun and got off a couple of good blasts before I took him down. Didn't hurt a bit, though. Hell, I don't even feel cold or heat any longer. I dont even get hungry. Perhaps I'm not even human anymore. Well, what's wrong with that? Anything that helps me protect Dorothy can't be all bad. No new "visitors' today. I sure would like to hear you laugh again... Dorothy. Dorothy. why are you crying? Where does it hurt, baby? Don't worry, I'm here with you. Botanist's Notebook March 15th I can hardly explain my surprise at finding this abandoned cabin. The strong vines...the gigantic tropical flowers...I was convinced that I'd discovered a new species. March 18th Rick and I decided to set up camp right here so that we could begin research and take samples. It is imperative that this site remain secret. March 19th This is no good. The plants seem to possess a will of their own. They move as if controlled by intelligence. They have blocked the only door to the cabin. March 20th There's no way out of this place. If it comes down to it, I can use my satellite phone as a last resort. We have a week's worth of food left. It's best to just wait for now. Rick swears up and down that he can sense a human presence here. he's likely hallucinating. Meanwhile, I managed to drop my phone and break it. I no longer care about new plant species. I just want out of here. There's a room that appears to be a pharmacy here. I found a tank full of medicine or chemicals in there. The vines around it have begun to wilt and decay. There's a knob-like protruson on part of the vine climbing the wall. It's much more tender than other parts of the plant. I used a syringe to inject it with the medicine. It worked! We can get out now! Rick is dead. He was killed. Who is that freak? Why is he attacking us? Bianca, Jessie. Please forgive your father for dying before you. I'll always love you. Administrator's Diary 2 It's been 5 years since my wife died. They say that time heals all wounds, but that is absurd. It only gets worse with each passing day. It will linger forever. There's no hope left anymore. None. Oh, Dorothy... Why did you have to leave me behind? I keep going back to the hospital. I can't forget her. The experiment has been covered up and swept under the rug, but I have no feeling of closure. I came across a curious plant growing in the intensive care unit in the basement. My wife's voice echoes in my head. Am I imagining things? Or...Could it be? I've decided to view this plant as Dorothy's reincarnation. If I convince myself that Dorothy's wish has come true, maybe my own burden of sadness will be lightened. One week has passed. Dorothy has grown and now stretches beyond the basement. A large cluster of her has grown like a bulb in the basement. I enjoy feeding it birds, dogs, and Other animals that I hunt down for her. For my Dorothy. My life feels full again. This is good. I'll live out the rest of my life here with her.

Before use, it must be diluted to between 1/50th and 1/199th of it's normal strength. Store it at room temperature and always be sure to close the tank tightly after use. If left in high temperature for an extended period, the potency will increase. Only use the special syringe to extract the fluid, and do so slowly. Do not drink or touch it. Do not breath in the volatile vapors. Davis Mountain Safety Report Notice of Fall/Winter Closure Effective dates: September - December In recent years, accidents and missing person cases have been on the rise in the northwestern Arklay mountains. This, along with the fog at high altitudes, is why the old path will be closed this season. Barring local citizen's extreme emergencies, it is advised that the old hiking paths be avoided at all costs during the allotted timeframe. Mountain Safety Commission Chair Nametag Lucy Mallet 72 Houston St. Raccoon City 760810 DOB: 6/2/94 Blood type: A Raccoon Today September 6, 1998 A ghost? Sightings of a mysterious masked figure in the NW Arklay woods are on the rise. The bloody remains of crows and wild dogs have also been showing up near river banks in the area. The whole region has been swept up in the hysteria and a mood of fear and paranoia is prevalent. Long-time residents insist that it's the ghost of a patient from the nearby hospital that closed down 5 years ago. Are these bizarre sightings just a taste of things to come?

Raccoon P.D. General Office Police Notice Attention all officers and staff: In response to the incresaing crime rate in the city, the station's security system has been upgraded. This will help not only us, but also law abiding Raccoon citizens. Starting this month, our focus will be on riot suppression. Nerve gas canister have been prepared. Additionally, sensors to check ID tags will be implemented to permit entry only to those authorized. The sensors are sensitive and will likely require frequent adjustment. Please be certain to use this new equipment propery. Chief Brian Irons Secret File SECRET FAX copy. receipt ->Tax dollar?

It closed in the late '80s and was purchased cheaply by the RPD for use as a station because of its central location and ample parking. Chief Irons himself is said to have been the mediator in the deal. All the equipment you see around was thanks to his suggestions, too. He says it's all to fight crime, but we also think his art obsession helps. The various air conditioning ducts used during the building's time as a museum were abandoned during the renovations, but not completely. The ducts themselves still exist, and might even provide a way out. And there's always the main hall with the statue in it. It used to be the main exhibition space, and there was probably a way to move large pieces in and out. Perhaps it still works. Might be worth checking out. Of course, if we trust S.T.A.R.S. No, forget it... There's no use grumbling. Anyway, there might be some chance of getting out with their help. Maybe I'll check it out. I certainly don't want to die here.

Police Diary September 19th I've become acquainted with a strange old man named Thomas. He works at the hazardous waste disposal center out back. He seems like a nice old guy and he loves chess. In fact, he loves chess so much that he's fashioned all of his work keys to look like chess pieces. We were all set to play last night, but he cancelled on me. I don't know if he has eczema or what, but he said his whole body was itchy and raw. Poor old guy. September 23rd As expected, Thomas is quite the chess expert. I used to consider myself to be a fairly good player, but he wiped the floor with me. What's strange is that he ate like a maniac. The whole time we were playing, he ept inhaling these rare roast beef sandwiches he had brought with him. He looked really pale, too. I sure hope the old guy's OK. September... (The diary ends abruptly here.) Bizarre Case File Case 1 Location: Arlay Mountain western area Details: A family of three (mother, father and child) found slaughtered by an unknown assailant or assailants. Their bodies were covered with what appear to be human bite marks, and their internal organs had been harvested. Case 2 Location: Mendez River dock area Details: The body of a 39 year old man found on the riverbank with portions of of his flesh eaten away. Closer examination revealed that he was surrounded by carcasses of wild birds and hares. Eyewitnesses point to a suspicious character in blood covered clothes nearby. Case 3 Location: Arklay Mountains Lindlay household Details: The bodies of a slain elderly couple were found covered in blood with their necks bitten into. Scraps of what appear to be meat were found in large quantities in both of their digestive systems. It is unknown if a third party was involved. Resume Envelope Raccoon City Police Department ATTN: Brian Irons Leon S. Kennedy Private Information enclosed Internal Memo About the fire shutter lock system: The fire shutters automatically close in the event of an emergency. To open one, you must enter the 3-digit code on the control panel. All shutters within the facility are operated with the same password. For security purposes, the code is changed every 24 hours. Employees should check their computers each morning for the new code. Experiment File Handling experimental life form T-0400TP (known henceforth as "T") Activation procedure: While maintaining pressure and temp. settings, transfer the activation program to T's memory cartex. When the program has installed itself, control is established. The activation program MO disk must be inserted in the proper terminal. Because of its tap secret nature, the disk is encrypted with a security code. This must be unscrambled in the mainframe room before insertion. Experiment outline: Hand-to-hand fighting with Hunters will be used to determine the amount of damage "T" is able to withstand. This is also useful in measuring the authority of the control program. Supplementary notes: The experiment is approved only for use under optimum conditions in the experimentation chamber. Safety is not guaranteed if performed outside conditions and locations prescribed. Researcher's Journal September 2 The cultivation tanks have been breaking frequently this month during experiments. Yesterday, a co-worker needed 30 stitches as aresult. Something must be done. September 8 A titarium frame has been instaled to reinforce the cultivation tanks. In the unlikely event of another breakage, the doors are set to lock automatically to isolate the threat. Once the lock is set, it will only open when the sensors indicate that the life form in question is dead. This ensures that any dangerous life forms are contained within that room with no chance of escape. There are two ways to open the lock. If the life form sensor is not deactivated, the door will remain locked until the creature dies. Short of an unlikely suicide, this method is unreliable. September 16 We've recenty taken on a new subject: the Hunter U, a smaller version of the regular Hunter. A number will be in our care for two weeks starting today. The computer system has issued warnings that the power level is insufficient for proper containment. We've prepared a store of weapons for emergencies. I certainly hope they go unused. Memo to Carter Carter: The remote control you ordered is ready. It was really hard to tune the frequency so as to not be disrupted by other machinery operating nearby. As I explained before, you need to be within 6 feet of the target and hold each button for 2 seconds or longer for the signal to transmit properly. These compromises were necessary due to the unit's size. But, Jesus...do you reay plan to use this thing? Oh well...as long as you pay what you promised, I can't complain. Just be careful, OK? Jeffery CTS Manual Handle processing 6 -> 4 Maintenance room Memo Scrap CTS Mine Detector Outline: This device is designed for the detection of claymore anti-personnel mines. When detected, an alarm sounds to alert the user. The alarm denotes distance by descreasing the time between beeps as the device is placed in closer vicinity to the mine in question. Caution must be exercised when interpreting this alarm sound. Only qualified personnel may deal with a mine's removal and disposal. In emergencies, however, a mine may be detonated from afar with firearms or other methods of attack. In this situation, caution is urged. Written Orders To: Tommy Neilson It's come to our attention that the cargo dock under your command was used for the disposal of that experiment. We must ensure that that information is not leaked. Commander Rodriguez of the 2nd USS Division has been revealed as the ringleader, and his authority has been stripped as of today. You are hereby assigned the duy of finding responsible parties. Do not fail. Our information is sketchy, but someone has helped Rodriguez and his conspirators escape. Explore all possible leads: his family, childen in the neighborhood, etc. Of course you are sworn to absolute secrecy. This company does not tolerate those who try to soil its reputation. If you want to wake up in the morning, I suggest you do as you are told and do it well. B. Rowell Reagant Refinement File Concerning AT1521: The reagent known as AT1521 (hereby referred to s "AT") is designed to slow the spread of the T-Virus in infected individuals. AT is only effective in those who have yet to exhibit symptoms of the virus. It does not eliminate the virus already in the bloodstream, but only suppresses it and slows its progress. AT has enjoyed a 99.91% success rate in lab mice. Against the T-Virus, which has no actual cure, it remains the only method of control and suppression available. Details on its refinement are listed below. Only under the most extreme of circumstances is this information allowed to leave company grounds.

Scrulptures, paintings, and other pieces are accounted for and have been sold to private collectors and legitimate museums, but no information concerning the specimens has emerged. The police are demanding that the auctioneer relinquish an inventory list confirming their whereabouts. Such specimens are banned from sale by auction, and rumors of endagered species in this batch are rampant. Daily Raccoon April 2, 1998 High Levels of Toxins in Local Water According to a local environmental group, recent tests of the municipal water system and local streams have revealed shockingly high levels of dangerous toxins. A significant increase in the level of contamination over the last year or so has prompted many to demand a thorough investigation into local environmental protection laws. Money Scoop August 1, 1998 "Clemens to Run For Office" Economist and lecturer Joel Clemens, whose bestselling book "The Other Side of the Coin" is rocketing up the charts, has officially announced his intention to run for City Councilman, Said Clemens (48). "If my knowedge and experience with economics can't rejuvenate this city, then nothing can." His voice full of confidence, he then smiled broadly to the crowd. As corporate scandals and rampant unemploymet rock the citizens of Raccoon City, perhaps Clemens has what it takes to bolster the local economy.
