Default Open Lara 2??

Hi, I heard some people got to run TR2 on that browser app Open Lara.

I don't own a copy of TR2 at this point. Is there any way to play TR2 in a browser for free? Fanks!

Only way is to buy tr2 and then use open lara but i believe its only some levels that work not all.


There a deal on steam at the mo where you can get tr2 for less then £1!

Wow, nice to know. Thanks.

EDIT: Wait! Actually I remember buying the original trilou off of GOG a couple of years ago. I also remember there being some bug that made playing at least one of the games impossible. Are there any known buggs in the Steam versions of the game?

Both, Steam and GoG are virtually identical. The good news is, there's patches / mods for all the classics around that make them playable:

TR1: TombATI (http://www.glidos.net/tombati.html)
TR2: TR2Main (Download via the "try the patch" link in this thread: https://www.tombraiderforums.com/sho...d.php?t=218509)
TR3: Peixoto's Patch (https://www.tombraiderforums.com/sho...d.php?t=208815) or Arsunt's TR3 patch (https://www.tombraiderforums.com/sho...4&postcount=15)
TR4: Should work out of the box. Widescreen patch available (https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/To...ast_Revelation)
TR5: Shoulld work out of the box.
TR6: Tons of fixes available (see here: https://www.tombraiderforums.com/sho...d.php?t=220813)

I've played all of the classics (GOG version) on a Windows 10 64bit PC without any major technical issues, so you should be good to go.
Since very recently, there's also Tomb1Main around (see the TR1 section of this forum) which strives to improve playability of TR1 even further.

You can try the demo files if you want to see how it looks.
But keep in mind that this is not playable: the TR2 exclusive features haven't been implemented yet, so only the TR1 ones work. Same for TR3 and TR4. You can run around but don't except much more for now.

I highly recommend using TR2 Main as it vastly improves the game whilst keeping the experience much the same, a lot of cut material that was exclusively in the PSX version has been added. It’s fully customisable too so if there are elements you don’t like you can simply turn them off 😊 here is a link to the latest developer build:

Feel free to PM if you have any questions about set up or anything

It's not 'content' per se, as it mostly refers to game features like added sounds and graphical effects. No new levels or something.
