Tomb1Main

Hello, some time ago I started a decompilation project for Tomb Raider 1 (the TombATI patch). This project reached "mature" status in my opinion, meaning I got everything decompiled except the graphics and sound code, and this is why I'm showing it here

Currently Arsunt is working on decompiling the remaining parts and bringing DirectX 9 support and I plan to slowly work my way through the tickets that can be seen in the issue tracker. Apart from decompiling the original game, the goal of this project is to also enhance the original game with new gameplay options and fix original bugs.

Project page: https://github.com/rr-/Tomb1Main
Download: https://github.com/rr-/Tomb1Main/releases
Reporting bugs and feature requests: https://github.com/rr-/Tomb1Main/issues

This patch requires TombATI v1.7 installed. HQ FMVs are currently not supported.

Please note that although I will try to monitor this thread, the primary source of issues and bug reports is GitHub.

Features already implemented:

added proper UI scaling
added enemy health bar
added more control over when to show health bar and air bar
added ability to customize of health bar and air bar
added ability to set user-defined FOV
added selecting weapons / using items with numeric keys
added ability to look around while running
added TR3-like sidesteps
added shotgun flash sprites
added a fly cheat
added a level skip cheat
added a door open cheat (while in fly mode)
added ability to disable all medpacks
added ability to disable Magnums
added ability to disable UZIs
added ability to disable shotgun
added ability to disable main menu demos
added ability to disable FMVs
added ability to disable cutscenes
added ability to disable healing between levels
added braid (currently only works in Lost Valley)
added support for more than 3 pickup sprites
added a choice whether to play NG or NG+
added Japanese mode (guns deal twice the damage); available for both NG and NG+
added external game flow (no longer 2 different .exes for TR1 and TR1IB) For TRLE builders:
- the levels can be reordered
- the levels can be renamed
- all the strings can be translated, including keys and items
- you no longer are constrained to 4 or 21 levels only
- you can offer a custom Gym level
- added automatic calculation of secret numbers
fixed skipping FMVs triggering inventory
fixed skipping credits working too fast
fixed setting user keys being very difficult
fixed keys and items not working when drawing guns immediately after using them
fixed freeze when holding action key during end of level
fixed reading user settings not restoring the volume
fixed Tomb of Tihocan playing secret sound
fixed The Great Pyramid secret
fixed running out of ammo forcing Lara to equip pistols even if she doesn't carry them
fixed a crash when Lara is on fire and goes too far away from where she caught fire
fixed settings not being saved when exiting the game with Alt+F4
fixed settings not persisting chosen layout (default vs. user keys)
fixed the sound of collecting a secret killing music

This post wouldn't be complete without some screenshots!

Game modes selection screen:

Braid (works only in Lost Valley, needs to be explicitly enabled):

Fly cheat:

Door open cheat:

Enemy healthbars:

I hope you enjoy it

(Note: originally the project started under the name TR1Main, but it was later renamed to Tomb1Main at Arsunt's request.)

Excellent job, rr-! You're very fast, I hope to find some spare time to combine TR2Main engine with your project as soon as possible. It seems we won't need GLRage anymore. Just stand alone game with no TombATI dependencies.

Welcome rr- and excellent work

It's really good to see software developers/programmers doing amazing work for TR fans

Statistics in the inventory, finally !

The door open cheat is especially useful, makes flying around levels so much easier and not having to stop on the ground to press levers or pick up keys

Does DirectX9 Support mean, that you don't need TombATI anymore or will it still be based on that?

Love the work you've done so far!
