Handles move but door don't open

Recommended Posts

I've had to stop playing several missions when doors will not open because the lock never gets picked on doors - matter of fact haven't finished a mission. The green light shows around lock pick, the door handle moves up and down, that's it. I've checked the light around lock pick and it stays green [red for wrong pick]. Rarely a door will unlock but even when it does it takes a long time. I've waited so long on some i put a weight on the mouse because wrist was getting sore.

It's not just a delay. You have to time the release of the mouse button to the end of the repeating sound sequence. With practice it becomes easy, easy enough to do it consistently on the first iteration, but if it annoys you there's a menu setting for auto lock picking that'll mean it works after a simple time delay.

I got auto lock set. still have to put a weight on mouse but it works now.

 

I'm playing 'illusionist tower'. the guy that did it is a genius in my book. i'm afraid i'll have to start over though. shot to many arrow at stuff trying figure out how to get to door up in the air. hard to believe that the fm is 6 years old.

      Was checking out old translation packs and decided to fire up TDM 1.07. Rightful Property with sub-20 FPS areas yay! ( same areas run at 180FPS with cranked eye candy on 2.12 )

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.
