It's not when they shoot the green ray that you get the shield, it's when they're stunned after being headshot during the adrenaline dodge. But like j7 says, use the grapple to grab it and action to pull it to the ground. Once the shields are on the ground, stand near one of them, and once the horsemen start shooting the green ray, pick the shield up using Action to reflect the ray back at them. When they are turned to stone you can damage them.

Yeah, you can I was so very grateful to learn of that move, after getting stuck at that point for absolutely ages. Good luck!

You can jump directly to the first grapple point, which saves a load of time. Keep the jump button pressed while jumping to go further. Have a look at from Xcom over at the Eidos forums.

Are you making sure that you are maintaining a weapons lock on the horsemen when you try to do the adrenaline dodge? You must keep the combat button pressed all the time. If Lara isn't pointing her pistols at the horsemen, she won't do that dodge. Also, make sure that although you keep Lara's weapon locked on the horsemen, that you stop shooting as soon as the horseman starts preparing to charge.

Welcome MarshaK! I'll tell you what works fairly well for me. Once Lara has caught the grapple point, let go of all keys so that she comes to a stop, hanging on the rope. Use the camera reset button (wish is "Display HUD" in the controls list, and is J by default on PC) to position the camera directly behind Lara. Don't move the camera at all after that. Start Lara swinging back and forth a few times until she gains sufficient height, let go of left while she is swinging left, and quickly press back and jump.

Interestingly, when I put the block in front of the door and make Lara take a running jump at it, she bypasses the block entirely and lands straight on the gate

No, it says in the second picture that you posted there that it's a fan-made film. So no Tomb Raider 3 yet.

No way, I absolutely love TR:A! I actually had very little problem with the controls (and I'm playing with keyboard and mouse). The only thing I had problems with once I sorted out the adrenaline dodge (which I can do very easily now) was the wall run and jump move. The camera kept moving at extremely inconvenient times and making Lara just carry on straight. It drove me up the wall, and didn't seem to get better with practice. Of course the first thing I did after installing was to customise the controls to make them easier for myself, and I changed them through the game whenever I found that certain moves were a bit too awkward.

Yeah, I love that AoD outfit. I usually choose that one when I'm replaying levels. I can't remember where I unlocked it though. I took a few pictures of Lara wearing her wetsuit for you. Hope you like them...

Whereabouts in the Lost Library are you? Have you done that one room where you slide down the slope and there's a metal man at the bottom and two big lion heads? As you exit that room there's two gates which open automatically as Lara approaches them. The Pharos Pillar is through the gate on the right. Let us know if you need more detailed help.

What you can do if you don't want to overwrite all your saves is to go into the Anniversary folder in My Documents, right-click on your profile folder, drag it a bit, and choose "Copy here". It'll make a new folder called for example "Copy of Default Profile". You can then re-name that folder to what you like. Dump the saves into it, and once you load the game you'll have a new profile with all j7's saves in it separate from your original profile. Remember that it is always a good idea to first copy your save folders out into a safe location before messing with your savegame files.

There's not too much advice I can offer except to make sure that you're doing the jump in the correct sequence. After you've pulled the switch, immediately turn and run back through the room to the statue that's in the opposite corner of the room to the switch. Climb on the rock in front of it and then climb onto the statue. Jump to the middle statue ahead, and then jump across to the statue opposite. Jump to the next statue ahead, and then do a wall-run to grab some cracks in the wall ahead. Hold the jump button in when Lara's making the jump between the two middle statues to make her jump further. When I'm doing the run across the room I make Lara roll and jump a few times, but I don't know if this actually makes Lara move any faster.

I agree, this game is really awesome There were a few bits that could have been improved upon, but for the most part playing TR:A was an extremely enjoyable experience. It's just an absolutely brilliant Tomb Raider game, and I hope that CD takes a look at it and makes TR8 a lot more like Anniversary than like Legend.

Great pics everybody! I've been replaying TR:A and looking for treasure, so here's a few more pictures I took. I like how Lara's ponytail stuck straight up in the air when she slid down this pole. A few dramatic mid air shots, because I'm a sucker for that sort of thing And, for good measure, a picture of Lara falling into lava that I came across while looking through my TR:A screenshots folder...

I don't mind the adrenaline dodge move now that I know how to get it to work (most of the time anyway... I am very clumsy and press dodge and fire too soon...). The game could have been a little move informative on how to get it to work though, it seems that loads and loads of people are having great difficulty. The move that I absolutely loathe and despise though is the one where you have to wall run and jump backwards. That single move caused me the most stress out of anything in the whole game.

Welcome back Boaz! It's great to see you around again

Try starting a new game, and then when the new game has started pressing ESC. Your old saves might still be there. Otherwise, try following Eidos's advice here

Hello Raider Man, good to see you around again Glad to hear your exams went well

That place there that Lara is looking at is where you came out of one of the rooms (I think the room with the big pillar in the middle). It opens the door behind the midas statue and allows access into the fire room. If you didn't pull the switch when you exited that room you'll have to navigate through it again to get to the switch. EDIT: LOL, I see you don't need the help any longer. I'll leave this here in case it's useful to anyone else.

You should install the v.42 and v.47 patches. Don't worry about the v.52 one though, it doesn't really do anything. Be careful with the Windows 98 compatibility mode though, it's been known to stop the game from saving properly.

Since you insist, I've made videos of and , also in TR:A.

You're welcome Let us know if you need any more help.

It's been a while since I've played Legend, but if I remember correctly you're supposed to use the manual aim to shoot the big screen down.

lol, you're welcome. That bit was making me absolutely insane and I just about cried with happiness when I realised I didn't have to do the bit with the bars

I just finished I didn't find very many artefacts and relics though I might just have to go back and try to get some of them.
