Are special animations needed???

[mobian.fox]

I was creating a demo of my game when suddenly I had the idea of placing a tightrope in which Lara would have to run and jump to grab it with her hand and swing around the pole and jump to the other side.... the problem is (when i jump and press action) lara stops in midair and repeatedly swings her arm attempting to catch the pole and she doesnt move from her spot. Is there a special animation needed to make her swing??

if you are doing a TRC level then yes, you have to be sure you are using a Lara object which have the swing pole animation; it is advice you download the "TRC all Lara's animation base file" from here:

the "tightrope" object is programmed for Lara walK on in, not to hang on it; use the swing pole object instead.

If you are doing a tr4 level then forget what i did say.
