Well, I set up my trigger like this :
1) Set the object as a pickup trigger
2) Stacks on top of it a CD and flyby trigger

It won't work... Why ?

When I do the same with a switch, using the switch trigger of course, things work perfectly...

are you trying to do a pickup on a podium? It might apply to all pickups but the pickup object should be set to 68 by selecting it and pressing O and typing it in the box.

Maybe thats it or maybe its that special trigers can be overlaid with normal triggers.
I'd do this (i may be wrong thought):

1) put the object to pickup down and change its properties to 68.
2) select the tile below the pickup and set it as a trigger. Change the trigger properties and set it as a pickup.
3) select the camera and add the trigger to the pickup square.
4) add the cd track to the square.

You may not need the 68 bit. I think that only applies to objects on podiums.

Hope this helps.

I got it to work !

I read carefully the manual last night and found out that I need to use OCB 64 to make the object a pickup trigger object !
You were close Modash Unfortunately the object lies on the floor... But would look cool on a pedestal or something...

Thanks anyway !
