Secret Chime issue
 
As everyone knows the 3rd Secret on the Great Pyramid doesn't chime and I think the issue is because Core only programmed 45 Chimes in the game instead of 46 as the Chime plays when you insert the key into the wall to raise the blocks in Tomb of Tihocan which is a bit strange meaning there is an unnecessary chime in that level.

There are 45 Secrets in Tomb Raider 1 so did Core accidently place 3 chimes in Tomb of Tihocan when only 2 were need and they then forgot to add an extra one in the Great Pyramid

Interesting, I don't recall three chimes in Tomb of Tihocan but we all know that the very last chime was missing, either a bug or forgot to program. However, this was fixed later revision disc if I remember correctly.

It's far easier than that. Tomb of Thiocan doesn indeed feature that chime, but it doesn't count as a secret, and nobody really knows if it was intentional or not. At the end of the day, the secret chime works exactly the same way as the other soundtracks, it's just ALSO programmed to automatically play when a secret is found.

In the great pyramid, the statistics screen doesn't record that "missing" secret, simply because Core forgot to put a trigger to let the engine know the secret was ACTUALLY found, alongside the secret chime.

This issue is resolved by many fan-created projects, don't know about the revisions... also maybe it works in the PS1 relase? Can't remember. it only needed the addition of the missing trigger :)

and I can remember the beta version of Saturn in cistern level where there was once a secrete room but removed from the final. Core design may have cocked it up with the final secrete level sound chime. Just a wild theory though

A Secret and deleted room I don't know about?

I'm interested, is there any video? sdfkgas
