Hi all,I would like to conduct a survey which answers the following question:
Which vehicles are available, and what are their capabilities / known restrictions?
For example:
Vehicle: Speedboat
Capabilities: Works on land only, explodes on contact with water.
Available: "speedboat.WAD" from www.example.blah
If known, add the details of how to create a working vehicle using TRWest, for example:
-----------
Jeep requires:
WAD: jeepchas.WAD
Source: TR 4
Components:
M32 JEEP
M33 VEHICLE_EXTRA (Lara driving animation)
M175 PUZZLE_ITEM1 (key)
Instructions: Assign PUZZLE_ITEM1 as "Key". etc (can't remember the rest - will lookup and amend later).
-----------
If you know of any vehicles please add them to this post so that we can have an up-to-date list of the best vehicles available.
Thanks. 
WBM
