Hint: Killing Plant 42:
Chris can save ammunition when fighting Plant 42 byusing the combat knife. Only about a dozen hits with the knifeare needed to kill it.
Hint: Easy kills:
When playing as Jill at the very beginning of the gamewhere you go into the dining room, instead of going into the hallto fight the zombie where the dead Kenneth is, run back into themail hallway where Wesker is located. He will say something, thenyou will return to the dining room. Try to leave again, then walkup the side where the clock is. A zombie will appear there, andBarry will kill it. From this point on, all of the zombies willdie in three hits.
Hint: Logging onto the computer:

Hint: Getting the Star Crest:
Go to the hall with the numerous paintings and crows.Put the switches behind the paintings in the following order:new born baby; infant; lively boy; young man; middle-aged man;bold looking old man.
Hint: Save ammunition as Jill:
When playing as Jill, do not shoot the first zombiethat is standing over Kenneth's body. Instead, run into the diningroom. Barry will speak to Jill before the zombie comes thoughthe door. Barry will shoot it three times, blowing off its head.
Hint: Save ammunition as Jill or Chris:
Stand behind the statue in the room above the diningroom. When the zombies come up on the other side, they will tryto walk through the statue leaving you free to knife them to death.
Hint: Bad language:
Start a game as Jill. When Barry and Jill are askedto check out the dining room, follow Barry. When you are in thedining room, run out into the hall way. The captain will ask "Haveyou investigated?". Re-enter the dining room, then try toleave once more. Barry will stand up and say "Scared already...It isn't like you Jill". Walk near the clock. A zombie willcome through the door. Barry will shoot it and then use some badlanguage. Note: This trick does not work with Chris.
Hint: Checking Zombies:
If you are not sure if a zombie is dead, walk up fairlyclose to it (but not so close that they start chewing your ankles)and simply back up. If the Zombie is alive, the character willdo a wary backup move instead of the standard backup done whenthere is nothing there.
Hint: Detecting enemies:
In order to tell whether or not there is an enemy thatyou can hear, but cannot see (off screen), turn in the oppositedirection of where the enemy may be, and press Aim. Ifthere is an enemy present, your character will turn around andaim in the direction of the enemy. If nothing is there, your characterwill just aim in the direction you are facing. This also is usefulif you are not sure if a taken down zombie is actually dead.
Hint: Kill Rebecca:
Go to the serum room and see Rebecca down there. Tellher to stay, then do everything else to go outside. Do the pianolast before you fight the snake. After fighting the snake, youshould get the scene where Chris faints and Rebecca carries himto the serum room. Once you get back inside from the guardhouse,kill the first Hunter and Chris will say he is worried about Rebecca.Waste at least a half hour of time, then go to the serum room.Once you get down the stairs, the scene with a Hunter corneringRebecca should start. To kill her, simply run in the save room.You now have a choice of the two endings that the Capcom guidemissed (save Jill or not).
