Author | Topic: Trouble with a camera shy wraith
Colin Grigson Member Posts: 776 From:LONDON, ENGLAND Registered: Jan 2001 | posted 03-02-2001 03:03 AM I've set up a trigger for a camera, target and wraith, so when Lara triggers the switch, you see the wraith come out of one room and head for the room that Lara is in. This all works fine, wraith and camera trigger ok, but you don't see the wraith. Is there a way of getting a camera to track a baddie. I've tried dropping the target on the same square as the wraith, although the camera is placed in a different room. Help! IP: Logged

Help![/QUOTE} try setting heavy triggers in each of the rooms that lead up to lara and place cameras and their targets in each of the rooms then set each camera and its target to the heavy trigger in the room before so when the baddie flies over the heavy triggerit will activate the camera in the room before it gets to it make sure you place the target where the baddie will come into the room ---note--- i haven't tried this but it sounds like it will work IP: Logged

Registered: Dec 1999 | posted 03-02-2001 01:26 PM Remember the wraiths can fly through walls ..... so tracking it with a camera seems like it would be extremely difficult if not impossible..... ------------------ I WAS PRESSING THE DARN WALK BUTTON !!

I tried dropping AI mods on it, but wraith doesn't support them, just does it's own thing. The bloody wraith instead of turning right thru the door towards Lara, legs it off to the left thru the wall. I can set the camera up above where the wraith is triggered from and you see it briefly. I think I'll just move the wraith, see which way it flies and set the camera accordingly. Thx for the help guys. ------------------ Come and visit us for all manner of TRLE related goodies New this week Crash in the Highlands & Palace of Anubis Levels, plus the only site to offer an alternative server for the eidos new and revised wads...and bats!!!
