Hi dear Tomb-Raider-Fan :-)
Thank you very much for downloading my new level.
This is a very new kind of level for me, because this time
its a japanese location.
The story:

Hanami in Kyoto
Actually Lara wanted to spend a nice
holidays in Kyoto, in Japan, to enjoy
the cherry-blossoms.
But then an old fiend of her called her
and told her about a spectacular old sword,
called katana, which was stolen by bad
gangsters, who have hide it in an old
japanese palace.
Of course this is a "must have" for her ;-)
Help Lara to get the katana and enjoy the game :-)

There is one secret in every level (2 levels = 2 secrets).

This zip file includes:

-14 mp3 files
-startme.exe and madplay.exe
-japan.tr4 and katana.tr4
-Script.dat and English.dat

-Please put the japan.tr4 and the katana.tr4 into the data folder.
(you dont need to convert any more, because a .tr4 file is an already converted TOM file)

-Put the English.dat and Script.dat into the trle folder.

-Doubleclick the startme.exe and a small tool will open and convert the
mp3 files into wavs. Then just copy the wavs and put them into your audio-folder.
(Ive added mp3 files into this zip, because they are much smaller than wavs. If Ive
added wavs, the zip-file wouldnt contain 30MBs, but 70MBs)

-Please activate the special fx in the TR-setup, to see the fog in the game.

-Start the game and klick on "New Game". It will start automatically.

-On my PC the brightness is "normally", like on the screenshots.
You almost dont need to use flares and Laras body seems 3D.
If the level is on your PC too dark or too bright (Lara seems 2D), please change the 
settings of your graphic-card or the monitor. Every PC is different ;-)
