Ok I just hit the lever to some sort of forest and saved when i got to the place where the legs have the name ''MIDAS''. I than went to hit all of the levers up the stairs where you see the crocodile and gorillas and went to kill two lions but don't know where to go from there.
Don't have all the switches pulled down. Doing that will get you nowhere. Instead Push down the first one only or third and fourth ones down only or just look at the doors at the combination that will help you. You'll see omegas and Y's. The Y's mean they must be down and the omegas mean they must be up.

Thanks for the assistance.
Hello - I'm new - not only here, but to the world of Tomb Raider!
Yes - ashamedly, I only got the game on the Saturn at Christmas (I dug out the console and set about getting a load of games I never had when it was new). Anyway, I have one problem of this Midas level which is driving me insane, if anyone would be kind enough to help.
I'm at the part where you have to get last (for me anyway) lead brick - through the door which leads to the huge multi-tiered cave-like room with the crocs in the water and lots of gorillas!! It's the bit with the big jump across to the wall with the long horizontal gash in it. After multiple deaths I looked at a guide online and it says to leap for a platform with a medipack on it. However, I can't see a medipack, no matter where I stand or look around - I don't know if this would be because the Saturn graphics aren't clear enought close it or what, but even when I don't make the jump and die, the closeer view doesn't seem to display one!!
I guess what I'm asking is if anyone can give me some guidance on which part of the wall to aim for - a recognisable pattern, or so many steps along from the rocks at the end of the path with the alcoves? (And if I'm wrong and she's supposed to grab the gash itself - that jump is not possible!!! :D)
Thankyou in advance.
Hello there coop :wve: Welcome to the forum
You need to jump to the flat part of the 'gash' or crevice. (running jump) The medpack is in the crevice
Edit: the flat part is over to the right. but once there you'll need to traverse to the left to be able to pull up.
Enjoying the game so far?
Yeah I am - I don't know why I didn't buy it earlier really! Thing is, I've been spoiled with modern games which let you save more often :) Although I think I need more practice with the jumping - I still can't seem to get Lara to jump far enough - even with a running, grabbing jump, she starts to fall before she reaches the other wall. :(
EDIT - ah - I did it! (although there was still no medipack - strange!) Thankyou for the help.
The saturn version has no medipack there—All other versions do

...- I still can't seem to get Lara to jump far enough - even with a running, grabbing jump, she starts to fall before she reaches the other wall... Maybe you already figured it out, but it might help to look at Stella's "Using The Moves" section:
http://www.tombraiders.net/stella/strategy.html#setup
especially the "SET UP BEFORE JUMPING" paragraph, right after the white chart area.
