Author | Topic: cog switch causing program crash
ukraider Junior Member Posts: 12 From: Registered: Feb 2002 | posted 02-24-2002 08:51 AM I've put the cog switch from the guardian wad intp a 1 room small test level. I can convert it to a tom file ok. But when I go to play the level and press the level name on the load screen the program returns to my desktop. Can anyone help? UKRaider IP: Logged

The level then loaded but crashed to the desktop when Lara turned the switch. ukraider IP: Logged

If that chrashes, the switch might not work at all!! IP: Logged

When you use the cog then the door will open slowly upwards. Also beware that you CAN NOT trigger enemy's on the cog switch. Then the level will crash!!! IP: Logged

eTux Member Posts: 837 From:Valmiera, Latvia Registered: Jan 2002 | posted 04-13-2002 07:33 AM Place the trigger on one of the sides Lara can access the cog switch, like this: a - accesable square c - cog switch square a c a But if you've done it like that, then just make sure if you didn't place the trigger on the other side.
