TRAE-Menu-Hook
 

Hi,

I want to introduce a project I have been working on for a year now, TRAE-Menu-Hook (not to be confused with Anniversary Edition).

TRAE-Menu-Hookis a dll/asi to be injected into Tomb Raider: Anniversary to provide extra features ingame such as menu to quickly switch levels but also tools for mods like loading objects.

Features

• Load files outside bigfile without restarting the game (including levels and objects)
• Spawn and manage instances
• Free camera
• Restored level debug including seeing of Event variables
• See level markup (legdges, ladders)
• See enemy navigation
• Disable death fade/respawn
• Disable cinematic bars
• Slow motion
• Skew/flight cheat
• Switch player outfit
• Switch levels
• Show instances including health, animation and more
• Play animations
• Wireframe view
• See collision mesh
• See portals
• See signals/triggers
• Skip intros/copyright screen
• Partly restored Legend binoculars

Downloads can be found on the Releases page together with the source code on GitHub. Unzip the files in your game folder and add the binkw32.dll and you are ready to go. Steam, GOG.COM and other same retail builds are supported.

Controls

F2 Toggle skew/flight cheat
F3 Pause the game
Shift + F3 Cycle Slow motion
F4 Toggle free camera
F5 Disable player control (useful while in free camera)
F7 Hide the menu
F8 Toggle menu focus (allows you to interact with the menu)
F9 Quickly switch between player outfits
F11 Instant ragdoll death
Insert/Ins Toggle hud

Flight controls depend on QWERTY/AZERTY keyboard layout (Q/A or Z/W)

Other games

TRAE-Menu-Hook repository also includes TR7-Menu-Hook and TR8-Menu-Hook for Legend and Underworld though those are not the main games I focus on and thus less supported for some versions/less features.

Hey TheIndra, great to see a thread for menu hook on this forum, and thank you for creating an alternative way of using mods for Anniversary!

This is really cool to see, thanks for sharing what you've been working on with us :tmb:

Haven't had a chance to play with this yet, but it looks like a fun tool. Thanks a lot for sharing!

Thanks for all kind comments

Working on visualization of signals, I guess you can kinda call them triggers.
