TR2+ TR2 gold questions

[Betal]

I have some questions. I start with TR2.

I finally got TR2 to work on my pc.

Which screen resolution is best? 1024x 760 or 1600x 1200? 1600x1200 looks better but the screen looks squeesed. Which screen resolution do you suggest?

And when I have finished Venice I get thiss massenge. I've seen many members here get it but I don't want to search for some threads to find the solution. I have patched it I think.:p

Fatal: Level3 [D:\data\venice.tr2) requires a new TOMB2.EXE (version 1376349) to run

And TR2 gold question. When I play it the textures look terrible pixilated. How can I fix this?

That's all.:wve:

The best resolution is one that fits 4:3 proportion (width:hight): 1024x768; 1280X1024; etc

To eliminate glitches with TR2 and TR2Gold download and install XP/Vista Multipatcher (http://www.tombraiderchronicles.com/vista/patch.html) :)

Yo!

I reckon 1024x760 is teh best reso, since 1024x768 r not far off and 1024x760 won't stretch the image as much! As for textures try 2 search 4 TR2 GOLD patch is there is any (it might fix that issue), soz dunno if there is any, played TR2 loooong time ago dude!
Nowadays tryna run TR1, havin' hard time even startin' it! o well them's the breaks! :D

I assume you have XP, so all you have to do is change the compatibility :)

It's recommended that you re-install the game though, so that it's not patched. Then right-click on the executable and go Properties > Compatibility, check the Compatibility mode box and select Win 98/Me from the drop-down menu. Hit OK and it should be OK :)

Thanks everybody.:D

@EscondeR

That patch thing didn't update TR2 gold. So it still have pixilate textures.

EscondeR've been really good sport tryna help me with that, but unfortunately unsuccessful, that issue so screwed up that he's emailed the thread of my problem to the creator of TRAI! :yik:

Betal, run TR2 Gold Settings (via shortcut if exist or Start > Run > Browse > Find Tr2gold.exe > add "-setup" string w/o qoutes after file name into the field and press OK).

On Graphics (Gfx) tab enable Dithering, Bilinear Filtering, Perspective correction and Z-buffer (note that Gfx output must be set to "3D accelerator"). Set the resolution (800x600; 1024x768 or else) and press OK

[Betal]

Hmm it's one of those things you said I forgott to tick. So it's fixed now. Thanks:wve:.

[Betal]

Hmm now the graphic looks good.

But now i have a problem with the sounds in the cutscenes. Like in the first cutscene for example. He shots with a uzi against Lara. I see Lara walk slowely to the door then she turns back quickly and duck. Then 1 second after the uzi sounds come. So They do things before the sounds come. and lso when Lara talk. She starts to move her head. Then after that the sounds come. Pretty annoying.

Is there a way to fix this?

Betal,you'll see the muzzle flash from the gunshot before you hear the sound, because light travels faster than sound..
