You don't need the corner bug to get ontop of the building, though.

I got the screenshot from here:

Oh, I was assuming you had the game version, Phlip. Thanks for the info.

Soul, if you're listening, can you please give us the date & size info for your alexhub2.tr4 file?

Phlip · 10-11-10, 18:37

Sorry.

I'll link Soul to this thread...

I'm afraid it's not another version, it's the file that comes with the level editor. I didn't find my TR4-copy when I wanted to do a screenshot today and so I just loaded the game in TRLE. I didn't know that the LE-version and the official version are so different. So I can't give you any info on my tr4-filesize, sorry.

Ah, that solves the mystery, Soul! It's not a different game version, it's the LE variation. Thank you.

As I recall, there's at least one other difference - in LE, if you go near the eyeglasses pickup, you can trigger two skeletons. The triggers for those skeletons also exist in the full game, but they need to be "turned on" with a trigger triggerer (say it 3 times fast!), which wasn't included.

So great eye, Phlip, but as far as this thread goes, false alarm.

Agreed with rr_carroll

Just checked the three versions on PC, and took identical location photos.

Thanks for the screens, Great Chi.

The column must have been removed so you can't go up on the unfinished roof.

Yep thanks great chi! I always wondered why there was a little coloum on the inside that looks like you could have fell onto it from the roof.

I think it's very possible that the TRLE version is an unfinished/beta version of the level.

^Yes, that's more likely than the column being removed deliberately in the TRLE version but not in the full game. After all, in the full game, the designers would be more likely to want to prevent people from getting up onto the unfinished roof, whereas this is not really an issue in the TRLE version, where the levels are included as a guide to level building, not as playable levels.
