Did you notice that ...
there are 5 files but only 4 'Special Features'?

Presumably;
[story1.str] <-> Storyboards Part 1
[nxg.str] <-> Next Generation Concept Art
[story2.str] <-> Storyboards Part 2
[gallery.str] <-> Gallery

But what about;
[screens.str] <-> ???

Anyone know what this extra file is? How to /play/ it?

I moved [all] the data-files to the hard-disk but the game
still plays media from the optical disc so i couldn't test by
renaming one file to another to see if i could access the last
'screens\'-file that way.


And did you watch the 'Gallery' Special Features after
finding all the secrets? An official /nude Lara/ photo! I didn't
think Miss Croft would ... Apparently she got caught up in the
celeb-cult in the late 20th century, huh.

Couldn't you burn a disk with the amended filename? Swapping it in after the
game launches if need be.

Just wandering through looking for something and thought I would
answer this. Screens.str is just the loading screens for the game. You
can view the files with TR Custom Screens its still available at
http://driber.net/trlefaq/ or you might find it else where.

Downloaded, checked and confirmed. :-)
Thank you! Thanks to IceBerg, BitShifter and Driber.
Great Lara-resource that link, for more than just this tool.

Thanks also to John for your suggestion. I was, i really was
going to try your suggestion and wanted to do that before
replying so was feeling increasingly bad for my tardiness.

It took me a while to even remember what my suggestion was. You are forgiven
for your tardiness! ;-)
