Escalator Physics Fix

by @H-G

 

About:

Spoiler

SA's escalators are broken. Their steps move, but they don't escalate or de-escalate any peds at all.
This game engine bug hasn't been looked into by anyone yet and many people have requested to various known modders to fix it.
So, Escalator Physics Fix fixes that game engine bug with... a .COL file! It removes the unneeded "wooden slopes" in the escalator collisions that "overlap" with the escalator step collision.
Somehow, this fixes the peds being unable to stay on the escalator steps and makes the escalators work properly, just like VC's escalators.

- Added the fixed escalator collision meshes separately from "laxref.col", this allows one to install the mod on a modified "laxref.col".
- Added instructions for installing the mod on a modified "laxref.col".

I wonder why this has not gotten more attention. I always hated that you wouldn't stay on the step when using the escalator in SA. Glad someone found a way to fix it.

@Deere: The escalators in LV work fine. Although, the steps need to be moved slightly upwards so the game gives their collision more priority than the floor's collision.

The option using a third-party program does not work, I acted strictly according to the instructions. There are no changes in the collision.

If your "laxref.col" is not already modified, you can safely use this mod's "laxref.col" without the need of the collision editor. How did you install the .col file, though?

I'm using an already modified file from the Beta Leftovers Fix mod. I tried to delete two colision files from it and replace them with yours. I saved the changes, the colision did not change in the game. Is it clear?

Did you put the modified "laxref.col" file in modloader?

What for? I am already using my modified laxref.col file. If you replace it entirely, then everything works. Why?

You said the collision doesn't change. Do the escalators work properly and take CJ up?

No, it doesn't work if I personally need to replace 2 of your files in my laxref.col

Check if you have any other mod installed that replaces "laxref.col".

Everything is fine, the Editor simply did not save the file correctly.
