I don't use Steam, I just have a disk copy.. maybe I'll do that after I try a few more things, thanks

For now I'll just put TR+Gold at the bottom of my list

Look how sad.. all the classics lined up on my desktop with two empty spots up front

The Worst Icon Award goes to The Last Revelation, the Ugliest Icon Award goes to TR3 and the Laziest Icon Award goes to Chronicles.

Oh you...

Download this:

It plays right-out-the-box and even lets you play the TR1 Gold levels finally.

And as for TR2/TR2 Gold, download this because that way you get some of the awesome PS1 features (like wavy inventory background) but on PC:

And if you're lining them up chronologically, Time Exclusive goes before TR4.

^yay, thank you!

I always thought that thread was just for modifications
Perchance.. has there ever been a mod that inserts the roll in mid-air move into TR1? I would take having that over having the also elusive roll-out-of-crawlspace move in TRLR (..has that been done yet?)

Sadly not. At least not yet. The roll out of crawlspace is one I'd kill for in regards to TR4, but it would require adding new animations to the level files and people don't like doing that because it can cause lots of bugs. (Which is why I spent so much time testing my Young Lara level fixes and those were just texture fixes, not animations.) But give it time, hopefully one day we can inject animations into the engine code somehow rather than editing the actual level files.

Btw, you probably know this, but be sure to download Woops' amazing tomb4/tomb5 patches when you get to replay those.

And of course Reborninshadow's AOD Restoration Project is utter perfection.

Sadly, TR3 has no love just yet.

Can you tell me more about these? I've got a ways to go in my replays (currently in the next to last chapter of TR1) but I plan to play through all of them and I'd like to do the best possible experiences for each.

Sure. They each have their own threads, but some of the opening posts don't have the clearest ">>> DOWNLOAD HERE<<<" link - but as long as you study the OP you'll find it.

Nice, thanks! Do they play nice with the Steam versions of the games? Thanks again!

TR1 unlike every other TR game uses a graphics engine called DosBox. TRII onwards uses DirectX which gets new iterations every so often and is backwards compatible. DosBox is a legacy system and was used in a lot of 90's PC games, however, it is notorious for not working well on Windows 10 and modern machines.
