Lara Severi Member Posts: 937 From:Darlington, CO Durham, England Registered: Jan 2001 | posted 04-03-2001 01:11 PM Hi all, Help!!! I can't use this type of switch (stick hand in wall switch) and I really need / want to (it is a big part of this puzzle I am creating) I have typed -1 in the switch OCB and 1 in the objects OCB (like it says in the manual). but nothing!! I even looked in the example levels and did it like theirs and still nothing. Please stop me from going out of my mind!... ********************************************* Visit my brill' TRLE sites http://editor23.tripod.com http://www.communigate.co.uk/ne/leveleditor ********************************************* IP: Logged

Lara Severi Member Posts: 937 From:Darlington, CO Durham, England Registered: Jan 2001 | posted 04-06-2001 01:11 AM Yes I have the updated wads. and yes I've tried 1 and 2 is crow bar 3 and 4 is small / large pedastal! Could it be because I have put a puzzle item in there, for her to pick up? Help me!! IP: Logged
Nigel1985 Member Posts: 630 From:England Registered: Feb 2001 | posted 04-06-2001 03:51 AM Lara Severi, if you want lara to put her hand in there use a -1 on the switch object, then use the trigger for it, if you want her to pickup and object inside use a 1 on the OBJECT not the switch, that should work..if not, really read the reference section on cleo.wad in the manual, they explain this.Good luck!

piega Member Posts: 151 From:Netherlands Registered: Dec 2000 | posted 04-06-2001 10:18 AM I am making my black palace level with the palace wad. I have several switches with the switch animation stick in wall type. Just press 2 in the ocb of the switch type. It hasnt anything to do with the crowbar. That is number 2 for the door! not the switch! You cant hide a piece inside for a pickup and a switch type at once. IP: Logged
