I have a problem in setting Heavy triggers for enemies...
I have a simple door, I want that an enemy walks on a tile and that the door opens.
So I've put a Heavy for the door, on the floor, simply.
But it doesn't work... The enemy is a KNIGHTS_TEMPLAR, with some customization in the script.
But the Heavy didn't work already with other enemies such as DOG and BADDY2, so I think I'm setting it wrongly... I tried also with Heavyswitch + trigger for the door, and with Action trigger on the door with a flipeffect, but nothing.

You need to use the flag NEF_EASY_HEAVY_ENABLING on Enemy= command

My first suspicion is that the project is corrupted, as I can see no relation between rollingballs and earthquakes produced by any action of Lara's which would have to be triggered by an anim command.
I think we need a bit more context. Do you use TRNG? TREP? Is scripting involved? What is the provenance of the wad (standard wad or compiled from various sources?) What are the differences between the last project where the bug didn't occur and the one where it does?

@Stryke: You're welcome.

Oh right, I use TE (Tomb Editor) my WAD is compiled from various sources.
I'm not sure about the differences in the level from when this bug started and before it did. That I'll need to take a look later...

Would I have to make another level in scripts? The tutorial doesn't say I have too. Any help?

As mentioned in the upcoming TE 1.2.8 version changelog, there was an issue with LARA_START_POSITION behavior. Core used yet another hack, in their level compiler this time: even though we use OCBs to identify them in our levels, in-game they're actually identified by their object ID, so the level compiler does things for that to happen... and of course this was not something they would have documented, so as a result TE devs didn't know and didn't implement that. Just wait for 1.2.8 (which should should come soon ), and your issue should be fixed.

Also, regarding boxes: there's an option in TE to reduce drastically the number of boxes: in every room that you are sure no enemy will ever go to, you can tick the "No pathfinding" option, so boxes won't be generated for these rooms. It means enemies will basically see these rooms like they're walls, so they won't be able to move in them at all, which is why you need to be sure they won't reach them.

A question about Strpix... why everytime I export an object, modify it in Metaseq and then import it again into Strpix all the textures are now flipped??? This never happend to me before, just now and I have no idea why

@Joey Thank you so much for the updated information. I was able to reduce my boxes to around 1780. So good. I'm upset I deleted a part because I thought I had to lol. But this gives me the opportunity to build something even better. Can't wait for new TE version.

Not sure what's happening. Just check that in options 3DS max mqo is not checked.
