Hi All,

As the title say How do you get the grappling hook at the very being of the game to lock onto the target and stay hooked so I can swing across.

is it :-
press spacekey and hold then press q key then let go of spacekey
or
press space key and release then press q and relase then press spacekey relase.

As it just not doing it for me.

get a hit but no lock.

Plus I know if I can't do this bit I may not be able to do anything else in the game that needs this. On screen teaching is not all the great.

or is there somewhere in the house that I can try this out? (not looked yet.).

Tell me you didnt just type your question in...

Try something like "Tomb Radier [name] controls", or replace controls with grapple, hook, grapple hook, how grapple, control help, etc.

In legend you had to jump towards it and press Q to attach the grapple hook, while in the air. Or when something was in reach you just press Q.

EDIT:
Space to jump towards it, let go of space,
Q to grapple on then swing like a normal rope,
Space to jump off.

indi and Oolite thanks for you useful input, now able to see what I was doing wrong, hopefully it will become just a matter of getting my fingers in sync.

Manic, No this one action is not in the Manuel, you are taught it on screen as you go, which is not the best way.

RUCCUS all you get when you type in any of the ways you mention above in to Google you just get back an awful lot of reviews on what the game looks like (after 20 pages I gave up).

cheers.
