Thanks!
Yes, of course, I can do exactly the same for TR3 Gold. Quote:
About this little patch, in TR3 I rewrote hundreds of times more code. Among the changes are dozens of bug fixes, compatibility improvements, a number of graphical improvements (some of them optional), and many more interesting things. Everything will be published as soon as the project is completed. I've been working on this for almost 10 years, and the work is coming to an end, I hope this year the world will see what real patches for classics should be without any ugly crutches like AHK Injector. |

OK! The widescreen is fantastic, could it be my mods causing the FMV issue?
I added:
Even with deinterlaced FMVs the problem still remains. I also have the issue with the sunglasses options crashing the game when opening the passport. Last edited by annl; 16-04-17 at 22:30. |

For programmers: NEVER write to the buffer without checking its size. Better yet, allocate memory dynamically, and free it when it becomes unnecessary. Static buffer is a time bomb, if you do not know how much data the program might want to put into it. Last edited by Arsunt; 20-04-17 at 20:09. |

As for the sunglasses bug, I understand totally, it's your project. One more thing, on behalf of many TR Fans, thank you. TR3 is the one TR that hasn't been updated with more modern patches. Good work on this 10 year (WOW!) project! Last edited by annl; 16-04-17 at 23:07. |

As I promised, here are patched EXE files with the automatic FOV fix and the new FMV player for TR3 and The Lost Artifact. Also it includes sunglasses bugfix.
This version of the game supports a great many video formats, thanks to the built-in ffmpeg codecs, including support for RPL and MP4. You do not need to install any codec, driver or wrapper packages. This is the implementation of fully native support for any FMV, including HQ. The volume level of the videos is set in accordance with the volume of in-game music. I've disabled old videoplayer files, so you can delete them if you want: dec130.dll, edec.dll, winplay.dll, winsdec.dll, winstr.dll. Instead, I created a single video player file ffplay.dll. It is based on ffmpeg player source code, but also includes a simple and reliable game interaction interface. SDL 1.2 required, so I include SDL.dll too. Do not combine this patch with other Widescreen patches and Peixoto's patch. They will break the correct work of the game. P.S. These are just a few small nice patches from the already implemented arsenal of features and bugfixes. I hope you enjoy them. UPD. I've updated the patch. Old links deleted.

FMV issue fixed! Thanks Arsunt! I'm going to get clearer ones right away for TR3, do I just put them in the FMV folder?
Volume is a little low but better. Have you restored the removed pickup icon that appeared in the corner of the screen in the betas? EDIT: Can't find any remastered FMVs. Ah well, they look better anyway! EDIT2: If it's not too much to ask, can you patch the TR3 Gold exe? I'm getting it next week and would like an exe for it. EDIT3: I'm having framerate issues, frame dropping to about 15FPS in Jungle. Sorry to bother you, is this an issue currently? EDIT4: If I close and reopen the game, the issue disappears. EDIT5: It seems to get worse over time. Framerate now very bad. Last edited by annl; 17-04-17 at 20:15. |

Hello
@Arsunt Can you apply crashfix on older patch without new FMV player ? Because is incompatible with dgVoodoo2 (Glide, DX1-7 and 8 wrapper to DX11) which I use and it's the best tool to run older Tomb Raiders smoothly on my Windows 10. Thanks PS: dgVoodoo2 can help also @annl for his framerate issues (i had it too in some places without it). You can get latest version here: http://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?p=577298#p577298 Last edited by Nucleoprotein; 22-04-17 at 05:36. |
