snickrep Member Posts: 340 From:Vero Beach, Florida , USA Registered: Nov 2001 | posted 06-27-2002 02:04 PM well the manual sucks Every time I do what it says, it never works. But when someone explains it in the tomb raider level editor forum, I always get it right. Oh and the tomb raider level editor forum is for help right? IP: Logged

The switch question: First place the door and then two triggers for it on the places where you want the switches to be later. Now place the switches you want on the same field you placed the door triggers. The next step is to place the trigger for each switch exactly on the same square again (where you placed the switches and the door trigger)(for each switch one on the same square it is) Now select the first switch trigger and open it's properties) by lcicking on the white line where trigger etc. is underneath the 2d map of the recent room) There you first have to set the triger type to switch (because it's a switch trigger). Now click on the numbers whitch you also find in the trigger properties field (they go from "1" to "5"). Let's click the "1" and the "2" button" (They now should look a little bit different) Now do the same thing for the other switch trigger but here you click the numbers "3" "4" and "5". Now it should work. IP: Logged

Fog bulbs are found on the Effects menu. Next, put a flip effect trigger where you want the fog to be turned on. You can put it right under Lara to have it there from the start. On the trigger window, set Trigger to Flipeffect. In the box next to that type in 28 and press enter. In the timer box, type in a value to set the color of the fog, then press enter. The colors are listed on page 97 of the manual. You can set the thickness of the fog by selecting the fog bulb (so it turns red), click Lighting, and change the RGB for the fog bulb. Higher values make thicker fog. When the Flipeffect is triggered, all fog bulbs in the level will turn on. IP: Logged
