The water kill the T. It is some kind of bug.

If you have a save from before the Trex appear you can experience a couple of "easter eggs" from Jurassic Park.

First, the Trex will follow the flares, as in the movie. So you can use them to distract "him".

Second, if you open the doors, at least one Raptor will come out (i don't know if you must not kill the two that appear in the entrante where the soldier is standing). A good option is to keep going on and enjoy the show from the upper area. The raptors will fight with the Trex. You can make your bet, but almost everytime the T is the winner.

^ Thank you! I literally just read some youtube comments mentioning the same. The T probably walked into the deeper end of the water?

the last section of the level is so ****ing unnecessary. I could have just shot down the walls instead of fooling around in that maze room.

LAWD...I am tiyad.

I don't know much I can tolerate the South Pacific and I'm still on the first level. These dinosaurs, the stomping noises, the realization that I haven't aquaired as much weapons I should have had...its getting to me.

it was only JUST NOW that I realized I can save on medipacks, bullets for my shotgun and flares when I used the trap door lever to my advantage and shoot the dinos from a distance.

edit: are my images showing for people?

edit: I am hiding from the Rex in this corner and for a moment I diliberate on if there's any other hiding spaces. I then notice that I don't hear the stompings or the roars...I come out from my safe space and...its dead. LOL. No idea how. Old age?

I love the vibe of this level, and how easily replayable the sections of TR3 are, a new classic TR could easily exaggerate the opportunities for different strategies during replay. So many possibilities.

And yes, I love these ****ing dinosaurs. <3 <3 <3

I know dude, this level was already complicated for me because I didn't know where to go because I couldn't see these monkey swinging stuff or that I could climb on rock texture walls, this last part drove me mad.

isn't that entire maze optional (despite core's intentions

)

Yes, it is. You can just climb directly onto the airplane from the ground. I've always perceived this method as accepted by Core.

I love this game! The puzzles are fun and the movements are okay once you get used to them. I love the outdated graphics. I'd also like to see a remake of this game. The one tricky part is the long water sequence in Luds Gate. I love the alien spaceship. That is really cool.

One of the things I really loved about TR3 was the sense of progression.

There was always a sense that you were moving forward into new places, dangers and events. It never felt as if you were treading water mooching around the same area collecting random items (for busy-workness reasons to extend the gameplay), you were always moving through and onwards to the next new thing to be seen and done.

Present day TR's would do well to move back to this format and scrap hubs imo. Plus bring on some REAL surprises (6-armed statues coming alive, discovering aliens in Area 51, raptors climbing in trees, etc) instead of random noble native person's lost great Aunt is killing people who stumble into the hallucengic plant area because she's angry.
