For real though: I would guess you have one of the incorrect .pak files in your TRC > Data folder. There should be a few .trc files and a few .pak files in there. One of the .pak files is the correct logo. For me the file is called "LOGO512.pak" even though I have the UK disk version and the GOG version. There are two other files called uslogo.pak and uklogo.pak that don't seem to work for me. So, check to see if you have the one I highlighted here.
Am I really that famous for disliking LR? XD

I have the 3 you mentioned. Which do I need to swap/delete/whatever? It's bad enough that it's the TR4 logo but the fugly-ass American one?! Nah, fam!

Yes. I'm a huge fan of your channel, and I've made it my secret mission to one day get you to love TR4

Anyway, if you have those 3 files that is strange that's it's the TR4 logo. Are there any other .pak files in the data folder? Can you post a screenshot of everything in your data folder? That way we might be able to determine the issue.

I hope Woops chimes in soon because he knows more than I do.

Gah, you're beginning to sound like me.

Okay so it doesn't seem like your data folder or the .pak files are the problem.

I just ran a test myself and it seems the ugly American TR4 logo is related to a missing .DAT file from your main TRC folder. Kirishima suggested this:

I personally do not have a UK.DAT file though. Instead, I have an ENGLISH.DAT file. I think that is what Kirishma meant. Check if you have that, and copy it into your main TRC folder.

Hopefully it should look like this:



I noticed for myself, the only time the random TR4 logo appeared is when I removed the ENGLISH.DAT file, so hopefully this is the one file you were missing.

Aha, doing that worked, thanks.

I notice next to no difference between TR4 and TR5 point light, even in the picture the OP demo'd. Is one recommended over the other?

The TR4 version has more "accurate" shadow projecting compared to the TR5 version, that's basically it. It's mostly preference.

Hmm, seems evident on her right arm. For clarity purposes I'll stick with TR5's.

Sorry, yes, I have removed it. I can bring it back on next release, and maybe move the cheats (minus dozy) to the inventory, just like TR4 had them? (Without the “face north” restriction, ofc. yucky)
What do you guys think?

And, I’m glad it’s working now for you Seth.

Ah no problem and yes please, it would be good to get the BITS cheat back if it's not too much trouble. Also adding most cheats to inventory instead of gameplay does sound like a good idea too.
