Well, create a door between 2 rooms, place the falling block on the bottom room and set a dummy trigger up!------------------ Visit my site: http://www.tombraiderconnection.8k.com Anubis : Death Pyramid to be released October 21st 'Don't trust what you see...'

Sussed it!I built 2 rooms (stacked) with a door between, toggle opacity, and applied the fallingblock object (which I merged into the tutorial wad) to the underside of the ceiling in the lower room Then I applied a dummy trigger on the floor of the lower room for each fallingblock object above And it worked so I assume I got it right! Thanks for the help, especially melanie who mailed me Another trick mastered! TVM Conan IP: Logged |

Nope - no sound yet - but then I copied the object into the tutorial wad - get's round all the scripting lark and allows me to experiment easily - I didn't set up anything to do with sound - since the spikes in my other trial room make the right noise, I assume I've missed out something...Conan IP: Logged |

Urm - I haven't got as far as sounds yetIf they're in the wad I'm testing stuff against they work - otherwise not. I'll have a llok at the issue. Which TR version and level are the falling blocks and crumbling floor panels used in??? I've played TR 1-5 and Golds where appropriate and can't remember - DOH! If you point me in the right direction, melanie, I'll see what I can do.... Conan (Dave) IP: Logged |

there's a breakable wooden bridge in Angkrace.tr4, it's kinda similar to the one you're looking foralso, take a look at 002213.html ------------------ Tomb Raider - Ancient Legends levels (2), walkthroughs, tutorials, wallpapers and other TR goodies on driber.cjb.net !!! new: the full release of the OBJECTS ARCHIVE is out !!!

Yeah I know - had to replay the start of TR4 to hear what the collapse should sound like.Every time I build based on the angkor wad it crashes the system on exit from the level. I extracted the falling block into the tutorial wad and it works OK but no sound Reading the manual and other posts suggests that the sounds should be automatically paired with the animation but it isn't happening. I'll have to re-install the editor files and have another go. IP: Logged |

Just read 002213.html It may hold the answer!!!! Read Tensions bit >>>> well I got the sound working for it too what you do is, change the id of the level using pcwadsfx I typed pcwadsfx mylevel b sounds.txt copy the new sam and sfx files to your wad dir and volia! Hope this helps - I'm still not with it yet today so I'll try it out later myself Conan IP: Logged |

I was just being cautious, having read but not tried the solution.As an IT Professional I don't say 'It is the answer to your problem' unless I'm sure of my self. I was suggesting that the solution to the posted quesry might also be (is?) the answer to a question I had been asked. I still haven't had time to verify that it resolved the question I had been asked - xref 004939.html Glad it worked for you - may do so for me too :-) IP: Logged |

Please excuse the cross postingOK sound with breaking floor now working - Credit to tension for this in 002213.html I have used TRWest to add the falling block item from the angkor_race ead to the tutorial wad I then used pcwadsfx tut1 #b to build the sounds required and copied the .sam and .sfx files as per the SFX_Example.bat file I actually used a modified copy of the bat file to do it all.
