Tomb Raider Chronicles is an action-adventure platform video game developed by Core Design and published in 2000 by Eidos Interactive for PlayStation, Microsoft Windows and Dreamcast.

Right so huge Tomb Raider fan here. Played every game in the series and as far as the PS1 games go, I've beaten TR1 and 2 more times than I can count, and The Last Revelation(possibly my favourite game in the series) many times too. Beat Chronicles 2 or 3 times as well though it has been a long time since I've played that one.But Tomb Raider 3? Easily the PS1 game I'm the least familiar with. I did beat it with a walkthrough when I was younger but it was always the game I liked the least, never revisited it and remember it being really hard compared to the others.So here I am today playing it again for the first time in a loooooong time. Jungle motocross extreme racing games 2017. I remember almost nothing so it feels very fresh. Just beat the first level after putting in a bit of a shift on it.

Jesus tapdancing christ this game is hard. What a way to introduce players to your game holy balls.Seriously the game opens with you sliding down with you having to jump over multiple instant death spike traps. Death quicksand. Strangely inviting looking water that leads to unavoidable death. Switches that trigger spike walls of death to close in on you from off screen. Boulder traps of doom.

More instant death spike traps. Massive quite overwhelming and confusing level design.

All of this in the opening goddamn level. Other TR games ease you in to it. TR3 pulls no punches from minute one.Then on top of that there's the save system where you can save where you want but have a limited number of save crystals. Given the amount of instant death traps the game throws at you in the first level alone, that save system feels like it's gonna be the cause of some frustration at points.

Because I, and I'm sure I'm not alone in this, have a tendency to not save as much as I probably should be when a game limits my saves.I shall continue on. First level took according to my stats 43 minutes to beat, and that's not counting my multiple deaths. I was actually at it for a lot longer.

Lets see how the difficulty curve shapes up following the opening level. I've never played Tomb Raider 3 outside of the PC version due to the save crystal issue.

The game on average is something else in context of the series and most of the games are pretty tough to start with.For what it's worth I do think the game kinda has a bit of a difficulty spike in the first (and especially second level) before cooling it a bit until later in the game (but this varies depending on the level order, still). At least in terms of the traps and what not, navigation won't get any easier.are you okay with a suggestion? It won't be much of a spoiler short of level/location order.

It's a tough game, but it's my favorite entry in the series. TR3 has some really great levels, and the new graphics and lighting give it some amazing atmosphere. I could do without the vehicle sections though.I'm actually replaying the classic series right now. I finished TR1, and I'm half way through TR2 right now.

TR3 is already installed and patched for high resolution widescreen. I'm playing on PC so they are easier due to the save system and the resolution being so much higher(easier to see clearly). Ohh yea TR3 is HARD. Still have my copy from Christmas that year and I've only ever beaten it twice. That opening level has so many ways to die it's insane. Quick sand, piranhas, tigers, pits with spikes, pits with piranhas, drowning, fire, walls of death. And it only gets worse.

The game has some of the hardest jumps in the entire og franchise. London, New Mexico, and the Pacific Islands are insanely tricky with death traps galore. I also really hate the ATV sections. By far one of the hardest games on PS1 and by far the hardest Tomb Raider ever made.

It is very unforgiving and a long time favorite, but I haven't played in a long time. They added the sprint and crouch mechanic in this game and added a ton of difficulty to utilize it is my best guess.Btw, once you leave India and can choose your next destination, go to Nevada, Area 51 next. They take your weapons away and you have to regain them. It isn't like MGS, where they give you all your stuff in one neat package.

I mean really reacquire your stuff throughout the levels.If you leave this as your third choice location instead of first, you will be left with very little ammo, weapons, and resources to complete the game.As an aside, I can't tell you how many times I got lost in the London underground levels. Really dark, samey looking corridors. Tomb Raider 3 was developed by a B Team at Core. Core wanted at least 2 years to develop their next game following Tomb Raider 2, but Eidos' greed knew no bounds and they demanded Tomb Raider 3 be done in less than a year to meet demand.

Core pulled together a team from employees working on other projects to make Tomb Raider 3 while the main Tomb Raider team worked on Last Revelation.That said, I think Tomb Raider 3 is a fine game. It has some very memorable locations and some of the worst.I'd say all of India is great, and I love how the Temple is designed so you see the mudslides that blocked the entrance that Tony mentioned from the outside and later you see that mudslide from the inside. Caves of Kaliya are a pretty harsh anticlimax, though.Nevada Desert is really good, but High Security Compound and Area 51 are too shooty and boring-looking. Area 51 just ends so abruptly.London is way too dark.

Thames Wharf feels kinda pointless and forced, Aldwych is god-tier, Lud's Gate would be better without the pointless and tedious excursion to the museum (plus the amount of water would send IGN packing), City is a good boss.South Pacific Island is all good, especially Madubu Gorge.Antarctica is all good, too.Overall I'd say the biggest issues is it has too much shooty shoot, is way too dark, and the PS1 save crystal bullshit. Level design maybe not as intuitive as previous games. Jungle, River Ganges, Nevada Desert, Aldwych, Madubu Gorge, and Antarctica are among my favorite Tomb Raider levels in the series. I did a Tomb Raider 1-6 marathon last month and I played all of them with a controller (X1) using Steam Input. It works wonders but it can get tricky with older games, especially since many of them don't support any overlays. I don't recall what I did specifically to make it all work, but I think using the dgVoodoo wrapper helped a lot getting everything to run properly. No need for BPM, unless you want to use it of course, but you can just plug in your controller and right click the game - manage - controller configuration and set up everything from there.Worst case scenario you could try using something like GloSC but I'm sure there's a way of getting it to work 'natively'.Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

Tomb Raider 3 is one my favorite.

Many great locations and it has way less bullshit moments than TR4.I really like how the levels are very large and some secrets are very tricky to find.I don't think 1st level is too difficult. Sure there are some spike traps etc. But it is still easier than TR2 1st level imo.There is also way less combat than TR2 which had lot's and lot's of human enemies.I'm talking PC version and save everywhere. I'm sure PS1 version and limited saves is much more harsh experience. Get past that boulder(and only bloody just too even though I knew it was there this time!

That says it all with how unavoidable that death is). Only to get killed by another boulder almost immediately after. This boulder I predicted would be there. Not because the game did a good job hinting at it. I simply predicted it because I've come to expect some kind of bullshit around every corner at this point.

Predicting a boulder still didn't help me though since I didn't know how to avoid it. Naturally I ran at full speed away from it down the corridor only to come to a dead end with seemingly no pathways to avoid it. Only through trial and error and more repeating the same garbage again will I figure it out. Get past that boulder(and only bloody just too even though I knew it was there this time!

Not only is it not over, the bullshit deaths just keep coming! Walked in a dark room. Door closed behind me.

Got my flare out. Could hear some sort of impending doom but didn't know what it was. It was the ceiling of spikes coming down on me. Pulled the switch hoping that would open the trap door in the corner. Too late to do anything else ceiling comes down kills me.Seriously guys. You TR3 lovers got some damn explaining to do.

Please give an argument for why this game isn't a mess.Also I was going to wait until I beat this level before bringing this up but who knows when that will be at this point so I'll mention it now. Why is this game so dark? Brightness feels all wrong. And item pickups seem to blend with the environment quite a lot.

Things can be hard to distinguish.Also I don't like that when you pick something up it doesn't show a visual of what it is you picked up like other games in the series do.

Project: Decompile Tomb Raider: Chronicles (TOMB5)Start Date: 21st June 2017.PSX:PSXPCN:PCN:PlatformBuild StateWindows (PSXPCN)Linux (PSXPCN)Linux (PSXPCN)PSXDisclaimerThis project may be abandoned at any time, use this product at your own risk. What is this?This repository contains decompiled code for the game Tomb Raider: Chronicles.

All decompiled code is based off the final PlayStation and PC version. The goal is to decompile as much as possible since the original source code is reportedly lost. It is not expected for decompiled code to be 1:1 with the original source code.

However, functionality wise it will be the same. Further debugging of the original PlayStation version at a later phase will help map out any existing bugs. All information (variable, file names, method names and data structures) have been obtained from debugging symbols (.SYM,.MAP), TRosettastone 3.0 and GAMEWAD.OBJ. What are the current goals?Current goals include decompiling all code up until the title screen sequence, ensuring it's fully correct then proceeding to decompiling in-game code. At this point in time the most critically required parts of code reside within the 'GAME' folder.

UsageAssuming you have compiled the most recent code or downloaded the latest binaries from appveyor (artifacts). Simply put your Tomb Raider: Chronicles PlayStation disc into your PC.

At this point you'll need to copy all the files from the root of the CD to the same folder as MAIN.EXE. The codebase is currently based off the final NTSC version of Tomb Raider: Chronicles and final PC version. This means that other localised versions may not be supported. How long will this take?Depending on the amount of contributors it could take years.Feel free to contact me on this: channel #TOMB5-decompile Credits.
