Talk:Tomb Raider: Chronicles

The whole game is just Lara's friends remembering her
Is the whole game really her friends remembering her first adventures??? I thought all of it except Ireland was actually happening.
 * No, all adventures in the game are memories from the past. Lara is presumed dead at the time her friends gather at the mansion. --Steerpike 20:56, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

So, it doesn't ever reveal that she didn't die in this game?


 * The ending suggests she's found alive. In any case, Core had no intention in killing her off, since they were already working on the sequel Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness by this time. --Steerpike 00:45, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Ok. So what did actually happen, it doesn't say on the page (sorry, I never completed Chronicles.)


 * At the end of Revelation, Lara Croft is trapped in a collapsing temple. At the end of Chronicles, we see Von Croy's people digging at the site for signs of life. One of the diggers suddenly runs out of the ruin and shouts "we've found her". That's all. The article isn't really required to provide that information. There are lots of sites that discuss the plot of Tomb Raider. --Steerpike 18:06, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Fresh Idea
I have a proposal. I posted some time ago an article that just doesn't fitted with Wikipedia's standards. This is my article: User:Locketudor/Tomb Raider music. I want to split it, remake it and distribued it to all Tomb Raider games. --Tulok 15:31, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Not Agree
I don't agree with the sentence:

Many felt that with The Last Revelation, the Tomb Raider'' formula had been stretched to its limits, and that a sequel would offer nothing new. In addition, the game still used the engine from the original Tomb Raider, which despite improved tweaking began to show its age with each subsequent game.''

I think that TR4 and TR5 were great developed: the FMVs were getting better, the music and the stories were cool. The only issue is the engine (they kept the engine) but don't forget that this engine was exploited at its best with this 2 games, more exactly the flyby tehnique was a new thing in TR, and they did a wonderful job with the flybies. If they would concentrate more on changing the graphics they woudn't have time to do a beautiful games as TR5 is, a good example is what happent with AoD, they had a new engine and the time wasn't so strechy.

 * WP:NOT. Really, that "reception" section should be cleared out. It is completely uncited, and most of it is probably not encyclopaedic either.  [Jam] [talk] 21:27, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Merge Tomb Raider Level Editor
I couldn't find much information about the Level Editor included with this game. I don't think there will be enough for a separate article on it, so let's merge it in here and strengthen this article.  Pagra shtak  15:53, 11 December 2008 (UTC)


 * This article has been deleted twice already - see Articles for deletion/Tomb Raider Level Editor (second nomination). If it is considered notable enough (I don't think there has been much discussion about it except for on fan sites), it should really be merged here.  [ジャム] [ t  -  c  ] 20:24, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I didn't think to check the history. I've added a one-sentence mention and redirected the level editor article here. If anyone's interested, feel free to expand it a little. I didn't use the other article since it was unreferenced.  Pagra shtak  20:41, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * If Tomb Raider Level Editor article has been merged with this one, then why is there no information about it? --87.102.68.201 (talk) 23:24, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
 * It hasn't been merged yet. It's been deleted. The user is proposing to merge.  Simon KSK  23:28, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Is there anything you have to do to show that you agree with the merge? --Neutralle (talk) 11:50, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
 * The merge has already been agreed by the AfD process. There was a section on it, but it got removed due to lack of information. I've re-added it and I'll tag the section for expansion (so the redirect works properly).  [ジャム] [ t  -  c  ] 14:24, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
 * AFD didn't decide on a merge—it decided on deletion. I'm not convinced that there is enough information available for a section.  Pagra shtak  15:07, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I thought AfD had decided to merge it. I agree there isn't enough information for an article on it, but I think a brief section should be OK. Unfortunately, reliable sources are hard to come by since it is an old game now. This seems to be the most comprehensive source I've found, but nearly all the links it references are dead (the GameSpot ones would have been good if they were still live...)  [ジャム] [ t  -  c  ] 15:19, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

(outdent) Actually, I just recalled that mention was made in the Tomb Raider (original!) strategy guide with regards to the Room Editor. I've added a reference in to this, as it should support the use of the Level Editor by the developers. [ジャム] [ t -  c  ] 15:27, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
 * That doesn't verify the statement. The statement is "The Tomb Raider Level Editor is a program..." and the ref says "levels are designed in another in-house utility called The Room Editor". Which is it—Tomb Raider Level Editor or The Room Editor?  Pagra shtak  18:12, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The Room Editor is the actual utility that is used to create levels. The Level Editor (I believe) refers to the whole package (the Room Editor and the other utilities used to create playable levels).  [ジャム] [ t  -  c  ] 18:27, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Do you have some sources for that?  Pagra shtak  20:52, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Uhhh, the game?  Simon KSK  21:00, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
 * As I've said, it is difficult to find reliable sources to back up things like the distinctions between the Level Editor and Room Editor due to the age of the software. TombRaiderChronicles.com says the Level Editor is the same as the one used at Core, and this one (that I found earlier) also has information about the Room Editor (which is part of the Level Editor package). I've re-written the lead Level Editor section to try and make this distinction more clear.  [ジャム] [ t  -  c  ] 21:18, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

Next Generation Level Editor
Why is Next Generation Level Editor 'non-notable'? I see it as part of the history of the Room Editor. One could say it is used more than Room Editor itself? --Neutralle (talk) 11:05, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, you didn't add any references in the first instance. Without reliable sources, we can't put anything about it here - see WP:RS.  [ジャム] [ t  -  c  ] 11:11, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Here is a reliable reference: www.skribblerz.com/tuts/ngle/nglemainpage.htm This page describes what the Next Generation Level Editor is and includes a manual on how it works. --Neutralle (talk) 11:14, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, that shows that it does exist. However, it doesn't show that it is notable, or that lots of fans use it.  [ジャム] [ t  -  c  ] 11:42, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay well minus the information on many people using it, is that a good enough source to note it in the article? --Neutralle (talk) 13:49, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Details about Russian episode
The sub is called Typhoon - Project 941 links here: , ,

The military base is Zapadnaya Litsa, everybody knows. Maybe some informations are useful. --TudorTulok (talk) 22:32, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

TRLE Section
I had a bash at trying to detail the history/progress of the TRLE. I think it's the only way we can ever get any information in there. Is it okay? Have I done anything bad? Feel free to edit/delete, I'm new here so if you would be so kind as to tell me why on my talk page, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks! :) --Nieveus (talk) 04:12, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Anyone know the name of the engine used?
The engine written as of now is "Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation". Surely that can't be the name of the engine. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jon Jonathan (talk • contribs) 09:58, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

The official title is "Tomb Raider: Chronicles" with the colon
The official website of the game from 2000 (archived here) gives "Tomb Raider: Chronicles" with the colon as the official title of the game. The use of "Tomb Raider Chronicles" without the colon for the game seems to have arisen due to a confusion with the Tomb Raider Chronicles website which was started in 2000, the same year the game was released, and which, however, is not the official website of the game Tomb Raider: Chronicles but a fansite whose aim is to collect key news and other information and material about the whole Tomb Raider series. Æo (talk) 12:26, 22 September 2023 (UTC)

P.S. Also the official game manual for the PC version (uploaded here) gives "Tomb Raider: Chronicles" with the colon as the title (n.b. the uploaded file's title does not use the colon, probably due to a simplification made by the person who uploaded it).--Æo (talk) 16:24, 22 September 2023 (UTC)

The article's title has been changed on 22 September 2023, at 15:47, from "Tomb Raider Chronicles" to "Tomb Raider: Chronicles" according to the foregoing.--Æo (talk) 16:31, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
