Getting TRAOD (6) To Run on your PC PERFECTLY!
 
Well I recently installed TRAOD on my PC and faced some issues, so I created this topic to help people/newcomers like me getting this game working.

Now this became more of a [B]master list[/B] too !

[B]-----------------------------------------------------------------[/B]

[B][U]Getting and updating TRAOD to work on your PC :[/U][/B]

First of all after you install your "[I][B]T[/B]omb [B]R[/B]aider [B]A[/B]ngel [B]O[/B]f [B]D[/B]arkness[/I]" game on your PC You should do the following steps :

[B]1-[/B]Install the latest [I]TRAOD[/I] Update/Patch (Ver./Build 52) [URL="http://www.tombraiderchronicles.com/vista/patch.html"]>Tomb Raider Series Multi Patch Download<[/URL]

[B]2-[/B]Configure your game from the [I]launcher.exe[/I] and then clicking [I]setup[/I], configure your resolution and quality/effects to maximum (if your PC can handle it, but what PC wouldn't these days ? :D)

[B]3-[/B]Install Sasho's Amazing controls fixes/patches for [I]TRAOD[/I] PC, can be found here [URL="https://sites.google.com/site/tombraideraoddecompiling/modifications/executable-mods/fixed-controls"]>Sashos TR6 Enhacement/Fix Patches<[/URL]

[B]4-[/B] You can configure the buttons/controls in game by pressing "ESC" Button on your keyboard to access the menu and then options > controls.

[B]5-[/B]More official patches and Information about them can be found [URL="http://www.laraunlimited.com/tr6/tombraider6.htm"]>here,Click Me!<[/URL]

NOTE : Everything should work fine on XP/7/8/8.1 Afaik, I tested it on 8.1 Update 1 and it works flawlessly, it is unplayable without the patch, well mainly the menus.

If you want to use [I]TexMod[/I] (For texture modding/skinning/mods etc..) with TRAOD refer to this link [URL="http://www.tombraiderforums.com/showthread.php?t=104617"]>TRAOD and TexMod<[/URL]
And yes it works with Sasho's patched EXE as well ;)

TexMod not working ? steam version ? this quote might be of help ...

[QUOTE=ajrich17901;7010677]Edit:

Managed to get them working, no one told me I was supposed to remove the P4 exe from the bin folder lol. All I had to do was put the P4 folder in the root aod folder and remove the other one from the bin folder and now it works.[/QUOTE]

[B]-----------------------------------------------------------------[/B]

I hope that is all for now, if there is anything I can add please let me know, this will always be updated (hopefully), I want to have a topic with all things required so people wouldn't have to search and look for too long.

Please do not forget to thank the patch/graphical patches authors for their hard work if you use them, they really deserve some thanks :P

I also hope this was not done before therefore a duplicate, if so I hope it get's stickied for benefit :jmp:

This is great :D You should include a part about disabling/enabling VRM9 which is the cause of most AoD issues on modern systems!

Texmod doesn't work for me (stem version).

[QUOTE=TheScyther;7009431]Texmod doesn't work for me (stem version).[/QUOTE]

Have you tried doing as explained in the link ? does it show anything at all for you or just nothing, or whether if logging mode works, afaik it should work if you point it to the exe in steamapps, strange ...

ajrich17901 27-02-14 12:30

Texmod doesn't work for me with the steam or the cd version xD

Gia_ 27-02-14 12:44

This is nice, thank you for doing this! I hope you will also update your OP every time Sasho or TRJTA update their patches. And off course when there will be something new available. ;)

Of course, I will do that, and thank you too ! :o

[QUOTE=ajrich17901;7009874]Texmod doesn't work for me with the steam or the cd version xD[/QUOTE]

That's strange, it worked for me by following the instructions in the link provided in the OP, I'm curious to know why.

ajrich17901 27-02-14 14:10

I'm honestly wondering why myself...

TheScyther 27-02-14 16:03

If i open texmod and click the 3 traod exes it will be a black scrren and give me an error. If i do what the link said in the op then it says sys error.
