Default Tomb Raider Beyond Illusion : A New Adventure Begins

Tomb Raider Beyond Illusion : A New Adventure Begins

Prepare to venture "Beyond Illusion" as Lara Croft embarks on an epic journey into the heart of India.

In this cinematic introduction, Lara finds herself in the tranquil garden of the Calcutta Hotel, where a chance encounter with the Dalai Lama hints at a world-changing revelation.

As Lara's playful and adventurous spirit meets the Dalai Lama's wisdom, a tale of hidden temples, the enigmatic Third Eye of Shiva, and the secrets of the Taj Mahal unfolds. Will Lara uncover the greatest treasure of all, or will the power of the Third Eye reveal truths that could reshape the world?

Get ready for an epic journey filled with intrigue, humor, and the relentless pursuit of history's mysteries in "Tomb Raider Beyond Illusion."



There's been lot of hard work put recently into this projet, so nearly everything is finished. It might be released soon.

For your information, voices were generated by AI using Lara Croft and Von Croy samples from TR4.

It's mind-blowing how real, original and authentic their voices sound.

Can't wait for you to release this!

Default Final Beta Test

Just to let you know, I'm in the final stage of beta testing the Adventure. It remains two crashes in game :
- one freeze the game during a boss battle with Hydra (and Laser Head) - a workaround is to save and reload game.
- the second corrupt save after killing Knight Templar (or it seems) - no workaround known ?

I will need to find a proper fix or create a workaround.

This adventure takes 2 hours to finish and difficulty is between Medium and Difficult. Prepare to download a folder of nearly 1 GB (uncompressed), there are a lot of audio used to render voice of Lara.

Edit:
Second crash is fixed. It seems Knight Templar can't drop an item when it dies without corrupting savegame (as it is normally an immortal ennemy).

Default No more crash and freeze!



Let's celebrate, after nearly 10 years (yes I started this project 10 years ago : september 2013) I've found the reason why I had a freeze during the boss battle : two looping organizer. Actually there could be memory leak with the FO_LOOP and it was freezing my level after some time.

Anyway, no more crash and freeze in game. I will be able to release this adventure really soon. If some experiemented testers are interested to test the final version ? PM me

Hello everyone this project is NOT DEAD

Just to let you know, I've been busy with real life and some health issues last year. I needed to focus on getting an healthier life (with more sport and weekly routine with a physiotherapist).

Hopefully I'm getting better and had time to work on this project for few months. I was able to finish every cutscene and fix last issues - especially with the help of Krystian and his Preserve Hub plugin. I've cut the game into several smaller levels to avoid issues with savegame limits (memory limits). I don't want to talk about release for now but I only have few things to fix (animation, ambiance and last manor section).

Here is a 6 minute trailer to showcase the adventure : 2 hours of gameplay + 1 hour to explore Croft Manor (as side level)
