In Response To: Re: Cortana - QTVR & QT Rotation (Dojorkan)

: Oh, You get the Beta too? With the Teleporting feature?

: Anyways, to the guy who asked the question, The switches dont do anything.
: Heres the likely explanation I wrote on HighImpactHalo

: Alright notice that all the switches are all at places that a type of gondola
: would be.

: Taso was right about the Delta Halo-Regret thing. The Zanzibar was used
: because it was aready made and its the only switch object in the early
: game. It was probably meant for the Gondola on Regret. Specifically ones
: that YOU dont press to activate.

: the gondola wont move until acted upon by the switches. When you do a certain
: thing the switch activates to get a gondola moving for you.

: To further prove the location thing. The High Charity switch is in the
: Chandeller room. Which has those little gravity things and they bring the
: platforms down.

: On Quartine, theres the obvious one for the gondola, which is activated by
: the cutscene.

: Also, not to mention, C0ld would just fall since there no ground beneth the
: switches to catch him, unless he had the character fly.

OK I haven't been awake long but have read through what you wrote about 4 times but I'm having trouble understanding you. Probably my fault. The Regret switch I've always thought looked like a Placeholder. It looks like it's roughly in the same position as the switch for the gondola. In that movie "The Mystery of the Gate" somebody with either a chipped box, or using Action Replay, uses a Banshee to get to it. They activate it and I've tried pausing it a number of times to see if there's some sort of "Press X to ....." but I just can't tell.
Anyway what I'm having trouble with is the High Charity one. Are you saying there's a gondola in the chandelier room or that the switch is for bringing the platforms down? Or maybe the last platform which if I recall correctly only comes down when you step on that blue pad on the second platform.
It does annoy me sometimes that Bungie won't comment on this stuff. Imagine all the hours wasted by people on Regret since Frogblast found that BSOD. But who am I to complain when they made 2 of my favourite games ever. Cheers.
