Hello everyone

V2.2.0 is out today!

Download

just a quick release with a couple bug fixes and small additions

changelog

remember to check out the using guide for help with installing/updating if you're not familiar

Couple highlights are implementing TR4 camera behavior. Optional through the new menu, And TR3-like holster behavior! so we can finally have the revolver and pistols/uzis in her holsters at the same time

Holsters:

Not much else other than bug fixes, but under the hood we've decompiled a few more functions and I've completely refactored the new menu. but as with most refactors, there's not any noticeable differences :P
As always, for any bugs, feedback, suggestions, contact me anywhere you can! here, DMs, other platforms, etc.!
Happy Raiding!

Love the holster changes!

Can the game over menu be delayed, or activated on pressing a button, after Lara's death? It happens too soon...

How does the camera in TR4 differ from the camera in TR5?

SLAYER · 11-01-22, 20:00

Camera moves slightly above Lara when you draw your weapons. That's the only thing I noticed.

@UroshUchiha

TR4's camera behaves similarly to the classic games. TR5 attempted to make some refinements, but YMMV on whether it's better or not. SLAYER already mention one noticeable difference, another would be the way the camera moves when rolling where it moves around to the side of Lara instead of straight forward and over her.

YMMV = 'Your mileage might vary', hmmm, does not make sense

Some people may like the changes, others may not. That's what I meant with "YMMV on whether it's better or not". The one thing I can say that I think is better with the TR5 camera style is how it follows Lara when she is climbing around ladder corners.

I really prefer the TR4 combat camera, but the other improvements they made in TRC make it difficult to justify switching back over...

Hello, I’m sorry I’ve been quiet here! Been really busy getting tomb4 ready

still a long way, but when the time comes I’ll make a thread.
TR4 camera has different calculations on how to follow Lara, as noted, rolling is an obvious example! Also the camera in TR4 is a lot higher, you can see the difference if you switch the camera standing still. When switching to TR4 you can see the camera goes higher

(looks more “down” on lara, to be exact) and yes, indeed the fixes in TR5 are nice, especially the camera around corners. Perhaps in the future we can have an “improved TR4” camera with a couple of these fixes

Lovely update. Thank you. It really makes the game much better. I love the sky box in the Levels with teen Lara and of course the PS1 type shadows and footprints. Great work.
