im at the point in level 2 when you move the crystal and and make the lasers cut you a way through the door.

this part is just before you take control of the mouse droid

anyway, during this part i cannot see the lasers. and when the crystal thing explodes, it does not do the animation or sound.

theres no explosion when i shoot the laser wires on the nearest door either.

i know what happens here because it was working fine before i reinstalled windows.

any idea whats wrong or has anybody else had this problem before?

im using windows 98, but thats what i was using before.

please help, as i am having trouble continuing this great game.

I'm not certain exactly, but I've encountered a bug sort of like that twice now when playing in the Kejim base. It seems to happen when I get into the gunnery chairs right before that chamber and mow people down. After jumping out, I seem to be in a semi noclipping mode. Nothing gets me out of it. The laser machine will not activate.

 

The only way I found to get out of this, is basically, restart the level. Hope that's not what your suffering from, but if it is...sorry bout that.

However, if a hole is blasted into the door next to the activation room, you can crouch, creep toward the door which you came from, go out it, in the next one over, hug the wall, and into the hole in the door you are trying to get into. Hope that helps somewhat.

I had that problem when I had an nvidia GeForce 2MX card in my old machine. I think the lasers just took up a lot of resources.

Anyway, I built a new computer, got an ATI Radeon 7500 and my problem was solved. I don't know EXACTLY why this bug exists or what causes it, I am just relating my little story concerning it.

Its deffinatly a video card problem. I've played (and beat) the game before right when i came out, and that didnt happen. However, i just installed the game again and im going through the game. I encountered this problem and im trying to fix it, but so far i cant get past the room. Its like running from ghosts lol, you cant see them but the kill you. But i say its video card because of this: When i played before, i had an nVidia GeForce 3, but since then i had bought a GF4 Ti 4600. With a BETTER card, it loses the lasers. Thats the only thing i've done to the machine since then. Not sure why thats happening, but as im writing this im downloading the newer drivers, though my current ones arent that old....
