Can anyone help me to make what I think is the final jump on the last level of TPM? It is becoming very frustrating!

Each time I jump I either fall under the moving lift or, on 2 occasions, I have died on landing.

Please help!!!!!!!

I...I know you're gonna hate me, but I REALLY love this level. Just the realization that I had to jump onto that platform while it is moving was really scary and exciting.

The trick is to make sure the platform is on the way UP, not DOWN. The platform moves relatively quickly, so make the jump when the platform looks like you'd die on it; trust that it will have risen enough by the time you land.

Sorry, Zanzibar but you are dealing with an apprentice padwan here- if that's possible.

I've been trying to do what you suggested since I started this part of the game. Maybe, you can be more precise on where the elevator should be at the point I need to jump?

Should my run-up be from the side to give me more time to build-up speed and then a last minute change of direction?

Help!!!

<font face="BernardMod BT"><font color="green1">No. Line yourself up directly. That's enough room to build speed. Remember, after you push jump, pause before you flip. This give you extra distance on your jump and you can wait for the elevator to get a little higher. The best I can tell you about the elevator's proper location is that you should start your jump about a second after it comes into view.
