Help With Element Puzzle

[Croft Nut]

I am trying to setup the element puzzle.I've placed the element recepticals and water skin ect. Lara will use the water skin, but just stands still when I try to use the petrol can or the bag of sand.

I set the receptical ocb codes and switch bits as shown by Flooredit, and I've included the water, petrol & dirt meshs in the wad.
The petrol can and the bag of sand have been put in the pickup item1 & pickup item 2 slots by Wadmerger.

Aren't the pick-up items useless items in TR4? I may be wrong here but aren't Von Croy's glasses a pick-up item? But then again I have never used these items, so I wouldn't know if they are useless..... But it's my theory... ;)

Have you tried a different slot?

[Croft Nut]

I can only get them in the pick-up slots, perhaps this is another puzzle we can't use.

If you use TRWest, you can 'replace', so you can put it in a different slot..... I am sure you can do the same with Wadmerger!

[Croft Nut]

Wadmerger always puts them in the same slot even if I use the shift key to bring up a box where you can select the slot to copy to. I dont know if it could be made to work,because each object needs the pouring water animation, and there are only two waterskin full slots.

I'm sure those animations are in the LARA_PETROL_MESH and LARA_DIRT_MESH slots.
If the bags were already in the pickup slots, that is probably where they belong. But there is more to this puzzle. Did you provide a way to fill the bags? If they are empty, Lara won't use them.

I provided a pool of water, the bag of sand & the petrol can are already full, I've checked this in a walkthrough since it's a very long time since I played TLR.
