i hate to ask but will you also fix that controller glitch? it's pretty egregious

I don't have the time to look into this atm, but sometime in the future yes-edit: nvm, fixed it

I will post the hotfix very soon, just need to make sure the earlier crash is really gone

Possible bug report. Admittedly I'm really not too familiar with TR4 in full.

I suggested the tomb4 project to a friend of mine who isn't a member of TRF and hes advised the following

"the only I've found playing the entire game. Is that in the Mastabas level, Lara is unable to put the Bag of Sand into the scale where the sand goes. She just says "no" when attempting. I swapped back to original tomb4.exe configuration and it works fine so I think it's a bug in the new dll project perhaps"

Sorry if this has already been mentioned before and is pending fixing but I cant seem to see a mention

That's odd because I didn't encounter this bug when I recently played it with the latest dll. Try to act fast and see if your friend still has a savegame because I believe that is helpful for Troye.

He does have the savegame but cant supply until later today or maybe even tomorrow sadly. I did suggest to him to try it again anyway but maybe to just make sure he was correctly rotated to the object for its action to occur etc as some small things like this can make a difference in these game hah. I will report back with either the savegame or a "nevermind!"

EDIT. His savegame shouldn't probably be needed now because of curiosity I downloaded some mastabas savegames to test it on my own end. "Savegame.4" from Stella's Steam/GOG savegame set for the Mastabas. Indeed, she refuses to pour the bag of sand tried at all angles around it too. the Jerry can and waterskin pour fine. I then tried the "multipatch" save versions and the same result. I then moved the new exe/dll out and moved back the unpatched versions and, voila, she pours the sand no problem.

While trying this- I actually encountered two other issues oh no!

1. When assigning joypad keys to my gamepad in the options menu- when trying to assign the JUMP key, the game crashes. All other buttons can be assigned fine. I tried assigning a few different gamepad keys to JUMP just to test the Waters and it is indeed just the JUMP entry that crashes the game. Tested on original tomb4 unpatched and, no crash occurs.

2. While testing out that above gamepad issue, the title screen was playing in the background naturally. I noticed the intermittent cutscenes within, stop at various points and continue onto the next flyby cam before the cutscene is meant to finish.
The first time as Lara was walking up the stairs to the skull, not 3 or so seconds in, the cameras cut to the next flyby.
Then the second time, she managed to get to the top or the stairs and as the skull is rotating, the cameras cut to the next flyby.

I'll check the sand, and joystick is already fixed.
as for the cutscenes in the title, stop skipping them cutscene skipper works in the title too!

Well I feel stupid I must have been exiting the control config menu, during the cutscene then *facepalm* good old ESC key huh.

Re the joypad, do you mean it was fixed in the most recent release? (April 28?) As that's the version I'm using. Or do you mean you've fixed it now - and its then pending for a new release?

[Woops]

sorry for being late

here it is
small hotfix:
-Fixes the exit game crash
-Fixes the joystick key mapping crash
-Fixes joystick input

[Gerald Ulysius]

Excellent! Thanks for all your hard work.

[LateRaider]

works great, love you my liege

Not much to add to this except that I've also made it to this point in the game and I seem to be having the same issue. Lara still interacts with the water and sun scales just fine, but she refuses to use the bag of sand item with the earth scale.
