Psychonauts: I need help

Satanic Jesus

I'm going through the obstscle course and I have gotten a bit stuck. There is a wall where you have to swing on pipes to get to the top, except I can't reach the last pipe. The swinging is easy though, but I just can't get to the last pipe. I always end up facing the wrong direction. EDIT: Just so everyone knows, I'm talking about the PS2 version.

Can't you swap directions? I don't have it anymore, but I thought there was some sort of about-face button.

Satanic Jesus

Is there? I know that he can swap the direction he faces depending on what pipe he swings to, but if there's a button that does that makes it much easier.

I think if you line it up so the pipe is directly behind you and then jump, he should do a 180.

edit: Nevermind, I just figured out where you are. If you don't know which key it is, you could try pressing each on one of the pipes towards the bottom.

There is a button that makes Raz face the opposite direction WITHOUT swinging to a new pipe.

Don't know what it is, though ...

if you let him stop swinging, and just hang there for a second, you should be able to switch the swinging direction with the stick if i remember right. I know there is a way to change swinging directions on pipes

If you're on the PS2 version, I believe that it's the Triangle button that makes you switch directions on the pipes. You might have to be completely still in order to turn around, though.

The funny part, is that the game doesn't tell you how to turn around until after the pipe-swinging part where you need it. (I think it finally tells you on one of the trapeze sections)

Satanic Jesus

I'll certainly have to try that. Thanks for the help, guys.
