Can SKS please tell me the trick of climbing through windows? I'm pressing W and spacebar and getting nowhere. Also in getting out of jail I couldn't get off the ladder onto the walkway above, just kept falling back down. Any tricks anyone could tell me?

You have to press Jump, then Forward (W) to climb onto a ledge, or through an open window. Hmm, you sure you were climbing the right side of the ladder? I honestly cant think why that would be happening.

Sorry, didn't make myself clear. I was trying to get off the ladder to the side. Thanx for helping.

No problems, its what we're here for. Hmm, I'll post back in a minute or two, I'll go play through the jail bit now...
EDIT: okay, I havent managed to play through it properly because the guard wont open the door to my equipment. At any rate, you can only get off ladders by climbing to the top or bottom of them. I dont think you can get off the side.

Ok, thanks.

I had this problem too. In the jail I spent a ridiculous amount of time trying to get up that ladder and off to the side. finally gave up and went and smacked the guard upside the head in frustration. (so nice of me, wasn't it? Lol it was all his fault!) It seems a bit odd, though that seems to be the *only* place in the game getting off sideways is really needed/wanted.
As for the windows. . .I wouldn't mind hearing the trick to that one as well. I almost always get stuck on windows. Can *usually* get through them, but only after 10 or more tries. . .and then not without rousing the entire city by the racket of jumping up and down and falling and running back up, etc. They ARE possible, but there seems to be a trick to it.
