First off, are you using the city WAD? The kick door has to be set up very specifically...best to check the example level to see how it's done....page 94 of the manual says: KICK_DOOR1 - Must be used with “Debris6” to work. Examine model carefully (room 101) to see how the door frame is placed and that the trigger is actually placed on the opposite side of approach.

Also, if all you saw was Lara's bum you may not have output your WAD correctly. If you are using city.was, you must output to city.tom and so forth. Hope this helps!

The manual is wrong.

You have to use 'debris 0' (it goes around the door) and you set the trigger on the oppisite side of approach.

To make things more complicated, debris 1 and 2 also need to be used. Place them on either side of debris0. This stops Lara from running through the door frame after it has been opened.

Also I've only managed to get the kickdoor to work going from one room to another. The frame needs to be in the room Lara is in and the door in the room she is going to.

good luck!

If you would look at the door set-up in room 101 as suggested on page 94 of the manual, it does tell you that you need to place the trigger on the opposite side of the approach and you can readily see which additional objects are needed. It can save so much time and frustration, I don't understand why more people don't look at the example projects. Can someone clue me???
