Psychonauts help needed: endgame

[flibble]

Hi,

I'm kind've stuck on the final sections of psychonauts, in the big top. In the section where you have to climb against the clock with water rising and your dad throwing flaming darts at you. In particular, I'm having trouble with the jumps from one floating latice climbing grids to another. Is there any special trick to doing so, bar jump from the highest bit you can reach and float to the next bit? I've tried jumping on the inside of the grids (closest to 'dad') but without much luck:/ I'm level 60ish, would a future levitation upgrade would help?

Many thanks:)

It just takes dexterity. You need to go to the top left of the grid from the outside, jump and use levitation float (the air baloon thingy) to get to the next grid. Keep doing that till you reach the final grid.

I found it much easier once I started aiming for the inside of the next grid, rather than the outside. :)

I stuck to the outside and it worked out fine. Just watch out for those flame bursts. If you are even remotely too close to them, off ye'll fall. If you can avoid 'em, you shouldn't have as much of a problem.

And no, future levitation upgrades wont help you much. Although it is mighty awesome to get the fully upgraded levitation ball attack. :D

I had an enormously difficult time w/ the cages the other night and gave up in disgusts. Today though, I made a breakthrough. If you rotate the camera around so that jumping to the next cage is a straight line jump, it becomes almost embarrasingly simple.

Just thought I'd share in case anybody else has been having problems like me.

Are there any other hints for this part with the fire. I have been trying and trying and failing and failing. The autasave here is part of the problem and having to repeat stuff over and over again. With quicksave it would still be frustrating but but at least manageable. This is just so frustrating and not fun. This is not the first time I get angry in a game but never before has a game gotten me so mad. I have read that this game did not sell well and it would not surprice me that people heard of the super difficult last level and just avoided the game. Ok so it´s the last part of the game so it would be understandable to be harder than the rest of the game but this is just beyond hard and into frutration. Up to this part the game has been so funny and great to play and now this part comes along and it feels like the game designers just made it with the only purpose in mind and that was to make it so frustrating no one can get through it exept some perfect platformgameplaying people. If that author or company that made this game will make another then sadly I will think a lot before buying it. Last time a part in a game got me so mad was in vice city with the remote helicopter.
