TR3 Uncle Silas level
hello, thanks for trying my level. here are some tips &
comments on this level.

first off, you should use my Tombpc.dat that i've included in the download.
why? because it gives all the information for playing the correct"background"
soundtrack during this level.

please don't run around this level with your "weapons always out".
if you do so, you'll miss many of the "camera shots" that i've placed
in this level.

please experiment with the gamma settings in the TR3 menu.
I prefer the gamma at "3";it looks *creepy* that dark & was Built for *darkness*.
however,you may like "7 or even "10". for screenshots,use gamma of "10".

yes, i know it's a pity that i didn't include "Maud" in this level(as the ID
# 62 prisoner).. the problem is that...this IS the "crashingest" level that
i've ever built. I've been months trying to get it to play correctly.
(i actually finished the level 2 months ago)

save your game often; this also helps for the "extra sound tracks" to play
correctly(when they are supposed to..that is)

yes, i know there are a lot of "flickering textures". TR3 always seems to
do this kind of thing when you build a large outdoor level, oh well !

there are 6 secrets to find, you can win the game without finding any of them.
you can also win the game with the pistols only(if you're a fairly good "jumper"
when it gets down to * gun battles * ...)

and lastly: the "Bug".. well, it's up on the rooftops, after Lara leaves the
Pink Bedroom. Lara picks up a small medpack on a roof. be careful! save your game
when Lara is IN the Pink Bedroom. sometimes, the game quits to the desktop
at this rooftop, sometimes not...

yes, bats do not always "behave" do they? sometimes, they head for a corner
& get "stuck" there. Dispatch them, otherwise, you'll hear their squeeking
all thru the level. remember,....a good bat is....

* a dead bat *

this level was built using: Turbo's TReditor .45 (revision2),Rview 5(revision2)
TrScripting(by writing it in "Notepad.exe")Raider Croft's PixStr 2 program, VinceBorg's
TombPCeditor and of course, Evegeni's "TrViewer 1.01" program.
no animals were harmed in the making of this level...

i was inspired to make this level after playing "Nocturne".and then i remembered i had
an old, dusty VHS tape of "The Dark Angel", one of my favorite movies...

you really Have to See this movie! my God, why doesn't Queen Elizibeth * Knight *
Peter O'Toole? .. Sir Peter O'Toole?(yesss!) he is simply * magnificent * as Uncle Silas.
also look at "Lawrence of Arabia" and find the 1980's movie "The Stuntman",
he's brilliant at anything he does...

here is my (USA version) cover of "The Dark Angel" VHS tape.

this level is unique for me; i've built it so that it requires the full
"sounds enabled" Tomb3.exe, so you must have either audio folder on your
hard drive or the TR3 CD-ROM in the CD drive bay to play this...

please take a look at the "How to install TR3 levels.txt"
