Need a hint : Crash DLC - Loop 4

[Bodo]

Hey there! I've been running circles when you get back in the area with the discouraged guy that is tired of the puzzle XD

I see the "purple button" purpose, but I dont seem to grasp how to change the color of the gun ball... I need red (i seen yellow and purple too so far) but I dont seem to be able to change the color of it ??? Did I miss something?

Thanks a lot !!!

Are you at the beginning, where the rockets crash ? If so there is everything you need to change a ball to red. Remember the pipe that shoots when you step on a pad ?

If you haven't played the main game recently its easy to forget many of the game mechanics.

My hint is that the teleporter ball can change color related to your weapons - but also from weapons generated by the environment. Think about what color you need and what other things in the game which make that color. As an extra hint, yellow hoops are only for the supraball, never for the teleporter ball.

F me ...... this is what that lifting bottecap is for..!! Yeah, I jumped into Crash without replaying the main game, but I did got to loop 4 on my own tho ahah thx dudes !!! I'll have to think about the purple ball now

Oh, now I think I know where you are. Are you trying to get back into ORANGEBURG ? If so you have to get the monster to shoot at whatever you need a red ball for.

I'm in loop 4, and i need to catapult myself using a red ball (which I have now), the force cube, and some thinking because now I can't get to the red force field in time when I drop the force cube lol... I LOVE this game! And I can't remember where I saw that damned yellow socket, but I know where the supraball is now :D

hehe 35 minutes later i'm still trying to figure out how to get to the jump pad (I remembered the thing name!) before it shuts, whic is less than a second it seems lol

EDIT: I'm really not sure if I used the intended way but I finally managed to to do something; i just had to whine about it a litte for it to work ahah

Just put the teleporter ball in front of the jump pad so you can get to it instantly after spawning the cube. Color the other ball red to lower the wall.

[Emissary Vex]

You are supposed to do it the same way you do the all the triggers before it.

Get the skeleton caster to shoot toward the cube and then run over to the jump pad before the projectiles push the cube onto the button

I solved it by putting a portal ball in front of the jump pad, spawing the cube in the air over the button, teleporting to the jump pad and run into it. I had to be very fast and I felt that this was not the intended way to do it, but hey it worked xD

Hey everyone! Thanks for the replys ! I'm past this point now, I managed something with very narrow timing but... WTH is the "other ball" thing !??? Don't tell me the supraball is able to change color too???? [/spoiler}

[benji]

Yes it is ;)
