I found a horizontal door in joby4c.tr4 using TRwest.
but when I place FLOOR-TRAPDOOR1 in my level, Lara will just fall through it when she walks over the door.
Also, when the door is triggered and opened, the game crashes back to windows

Does anyone know how to fix this?

tnx

Is there a difference between the FLOOR_TRAPDOOR1 in joby4c.tr4 and the one in library.WAS? I know the one in library.WAS works. Are you placing it in a "portal" between two rooms? About the crash, the readme that comes with the Library download states that if you try to trigger it, the game will crash. I assume this will happen with FLOOR_TRAPDOOR1 in all files. Lara will open the door when needed without a trigger. Try using the one from Library.WAS and let us know what happens.

Ok guys, I've got it all figured out now

first of all: KingSpyder, the floor_trapdoor in joby4c.tr4 is the same as the one in the libary wad (joby4c.tr4 IS probebly the libary!)
secondly: the reason for the crash is that when you place the door any higher than the LOWEST point of the room
That's also the reason why Lara will fall through that door if she walks over it.
When I placed the door on the floor of the room above the portal (yes KingSpider, I'm using it for a portal between 2 rooms stacked upon eachother) the door worked perfect
You can even trigger it, so Lara doesn't have to open it.

But for my level I found a door that better suits my needs: the TRAPDOOR1 from the CITY wad (remember the door where you had to drag that SAS bloke off?)
