Check this... got this from the games guide:--

Tomb Raider 4: Last Revelation (Eidos Interactive) Yes W2000 07/00
Received the follow messages:
1) Works with patch from Eidos web site. You have to change the screen settings to 16bit color.
2) Using the new NV 3.81 divers for G/Force The resolution can be set to your required setting ( 1024 x 768 32bit ) providing that you select windowed game then runs fine
3) To make the video clips work in full-screen mode in Windows 2000, get the TOMB4.EXE patch from Dec 17th (790,528 bytes) and change the byte at offset 0x93C23 from 0x74 to 0xEB. Additionally, playing the videos at 32bpp instead of 16bpp gives slightly better quality. Change the bytes at offsets 0x9C4F7 and 0x9C53C from 0x10 to 0x20 to achieve this.


OK SO HOW EXACTLY DO YOU DO THE PROCEDURE IN STEP 3?

Re: How the Hell..... - 12/22/00 04:05 PM

you need to use a hex editor

Re: How the Hell..... - 12/22/00 06:20 PM

yeah you need a hex editor or a decompiler to accomplish that. So if your not good at that kind of thing i wouldnt recommend it.

usings a Hex editor is really tricky man, i suggest you go to a site like: www.gamecopyworld.com
and see if they already offer a hacked EXE file, save yourself some time and pain.
