How do I proceed out of the room with the movable block, i can't climb on the movable block, it's the room with the movable block that says natla.

That's just one of the problems with bringing TRI to TRLE.
-can't climb onto movable blocks like you could in TRI
-Lara has some new moves and animations (like crouch or sprint) that would make it less of a chalenge in some areas, changing the gaming experience
-The high res "tr4 Lara" looks weird against the low res textured levels.
-Lara has new more powerful guns, guns she didn't have in TRI, gameplay would be changed.

But I DO support the TRI Conversion Project. It just might feel weird to play TRI this way. It will let us experience TRI from a whole new perspective. I mean no disrespect to KingSpyder.

Well, these are TR4 limitations. About the guns, it's easy We just won't add the stronger ones (revolver, grenade launcher, crossbow) simply because they weren't in TR1.

If Lara has new moves to make her adventure easier. Kingspyder is probably make the levels harder to balance out gameplay. For example add more enemies or place them in new locations.

This reminds me of the Resident Evil conversion for GameCube, Capcom is reramping the engine and adding new and harder enemies.

Status For "The City of Vicabamba" as of April 8th 2002

Movable Block: For now, use the DOZY cheat to get out. I'm in the process of working on an experiment with flip-maps in the hopes of getting aroung this. I've found some things that kinda work and some that deffinatly don't. I feel I'm very close to solving this, so stay tuned.
Lara's New Moves and Easier Game Play: As TREEBLE said, that's what the "eXtras" versions are going to be for. Not only will there be more of the enimies, but there will be new areas to explore. To start with, we're making an as true to the original representation as we can get.
Low Res Textures: Well, you CAN find a version of "The Caves" with Hi Res textures at http://www.mprager.de/. This wasn't as well recieved as I thought it would be, so I dropped the idea. I'm all for someone joining us and making Hi Res textures for each level.
Lara's Weapons: Treeble hit it spot on. With one exception: The Revolver may be needed to replace the Magnums. If we can figure out how to get the Magnums to work and keep the Pistols and Uzi's, then that will change.

Finally, I think you'll be pleased with the next version (2.0) when I release it. Hopefully, I'll release it soon. I just need to get her to stand on that block and it'll be ready.

Treeble: Thanks! Please just provide the link. You know how full my mail box can get Time for a spring cleaning I think ...

LarzBritsh: Just hit the "Shift" key. A word of warning though; make sure you're close to the ground when you do this or you may fall too far and die.
