- and would like a good chuckle

- I originally posted this in the TRSeries forum - Doh!

- I wondered why I had so many unread threads in front of me

- And why my message didn't show up

On a serious note:

- Several people have asked for help with building a mirror room.

- I'm working on a tutorial and have 'ripped' the Coastal Level one complete with the invisible crossbow pickup and spike traps.

- Before I go any further I need someone to test it to make sure I haven't made a boo-boo [well another boo-boo]

- I have uploaded the TOM file to my webspace at the link below.
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/david_thorn/4%20Others/coastal.TOM

- It is made using the original wad and textures from the editor disk.

- It also uses the original script files.

Will someone [preferably several someones ] test it and check it thoroughly

- i.e. play it through and try to walk on every square (including traps)

- then try to get from the start point to the crossbow and return to the start with it.

It should only take 1 min to download at 56K.

It's just the mirrored rooms and spike trap rooms.

If all goes well I'll post the PRJ complete with detailed construction instructions!

i think it can be done, but the game crashed the second i tried to load it (the game that is, not the level, so maybe it was something stupid i did to the script )

If not will someone please do so.

Ref pass through mirror -

I guess you'd need to have the mirror (door) set to opacity 2 to allow passage.

You'd want to make it double sided textured too.

In theory anyway

You should be able to trigger all the spikes, walk on every other square (i.e. non-spiked) unharmed, and retrieve the crossbow and return to the stairs.

In the original level, Lara is not reflected either.

I'd like to see her reflection too......
