Please read this IMPORTANT WARNING before downloading any files.
PLEASE READ BEFORE DOWNLOADING: Tombraiders.net does not support any of these files and is not responsible for anything that happens to your computer as a result of downloading or installing them.

The Times Exclusive Level - This stand-alone level is available for PC only and does not require the original TR4 game to play. It was created by Core Design in late 1999 as part of a special promotion for The Times of London to celebrate the anniversary of the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb. The walkthrough has additional details. Download the level here:
If you're using Windows XP, Vista or 7, and the program crashes when you try to install the level, try setting the compatibility mode as described in the next section.
For information on installing and running this level on a Macintosh, please visit MacRaider.
TR4 was designed to run under Windows 98/Me. So your game may need a little tweaking to run smoothly on a computer running Windows 7, Windows Vista or Windows XP. Before patching, try this simple fix:
- After installing the game, locate the tomb4.exe file. (Use the Search function in the Windows Start Menu if you have trouble.)
- Right-click on the tomb4.exe icon and choose 'Properties' from the drop-down menu.
- Click the 'Compatibility' tab.
- Check the box next to 'Run this program in compatibility mode for' and choose 'Windows 98/Windows Me' from the list.
- Click the 'OK' button.
- Run the game as usual.
NOTE: Windows 7 includes a Program Compatibility troubleshooter. For more information, visit Microsoft's help page for this topic.
If setting the compatibility mode doesn't work, you may also need to download and install one of the unofficial Windows 7/Vista/XP patches, which are part of tombraiderchronicles.com's excellent Windows 7, Vista and XP Tomb Raider Solution.
If downloaded demo files won't install, you may need to set the compatibility mode on the downloaded demo files as described in the paragraph above before installing, as well as on the game program files once they are installed.

If you receive an error message saying "DirectX setup failure" or the installation program appears to start but then hangs and will not install, it may help to restart your computer in Safe Mode (tap F8 during startup). Then install the game while in Safe Mode and restart the system normally. You can then try adjusting the compatibility settings, as described above, or install any patches.
- PC TR4 Official Patch (426 KB) - Fix for various issues, including remapping movement keys, additional save slots, allowing for a desktop shortcut, running the game on PCs without sound cards, plus other sound/video fixes, etc. (Note that there are different versions of this patch for various countries. This is the North American patch. Also, your original save files will not work with the patched game. So either patch before playing or download savegames from this site.)
- binkw32.dll (96 KB) - If you're playing the PC version of TR4 and receive an error stating that this file cannot be found, download it here. (Text file with instructions included.)
- Flight cheat patch (5 KB) - for TR2, 3 & 4 - unofficial, use at your own risk.
- Macintosh TR4 Official Updater (283 KB) - Allows users to turn on Compatibility Filtering (in Setup under Graphics). This improves blocky textures and fixes blank inventory screen and crashing immediately after startup or after loading a save file.
If you are unable to see the video sequences at the start of the game and between certain levels, or if you just want to watch them again, you may want to download Bink Video (for Windows or Mac) to watch the movies outside the game.

I prefer the use of savegame editors to game "trainers", but if you really want one, they are out there. Use Google to search for keywords like "tomb raider last revelation trainer".
Savegame & Position Editors are fairly easy to use and make for more "realistic" cheating. Instead of making Lara invincible, you can add just a few medi-packs, a weapon or some ammo, a key you missed, or just a little extra air when Lara needs it. The position editor lets you reposition her anywhere in a level, for fun or to avoid danger.
Music for The Last Revelation was composed by Peter Connelly and Martin Iveson.
If you'd like to download the TR4 soundtrack, please visit Planet Lara, which offers a comprehensive collection of theme music and ambient audio from all the games, along with great looking disk and cover art for making your own CDs.
Or, if you have the original PC or PlayStation game disk, you can listen to the audio tracks on a music CD player or with Windows Media Player. Macintosh users can open the sound files on the CD with QuickTime. Just skip the game data tracks, which will sound like static and electronic noise.
The Tomb Raider movie soundtracks are available on Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk
and iTunes .
For Lara Croft image galleries, wallpaper, screensavers, video, cell phone ringtones, and other Tomb Raider media, please check out my Links Directory. Many of the sites listed there offer these types of files.
