Sorry if this is covered somewhere, but I've not really been able to find the information.
I realize that there are a few versions of the traps that people use as reference when building theirs. The problem I'm finding is that there doesn't seem to be any "official" thread or section that breaks down the known traps and organizes the known reference images under the correct one.
I know there is a GB1 Hero and a GB2 Stunt, but I have a directory full of reference images that I am unable to sort. I know basically that the GB 1 vector plate is smaller and the side rods are red, but this doesn't seem like a good way to know which version I'm looking at.
I am wondering if there are trap names I'm missing. I know over on the Indy forums each fedora has a commonly used name (Indy Cairo) for example that relate to specific scenes or displays that people can use. GB1 Hero and GB2 Stunt don't seem to represent the traps I'm seeing unless I am wrong.
What I would also like to see is a list of differences. As a first time trap builder I had a day today where I was super frustrated with my trap build. I had been relying on the kit builder to have done the research, but I found like 8 inaccuracies with my trap today that really bummed me out.
What made it worse is that I came across them so late in the build. There was no reference page I could sit down with and kinda go over the different traps and make choices based on that. Yes, this forum is chalked full of info, but much like the Indy and Star Wars forums, it can take a LOT of effort to track down all the info.
Thoughts?
