Well, not as well as I might have hoped. The level lost heart after the golden maze part. I wanted to do more, but it was just getting momotonous for the player. I am still working on it, but I need somethings added. Something that is not what I have in the WAD I was using. Did you know that it did not even have spikes, boulders, or any other enemies? It was the one for King Spyders TR1 remake of the City of Vilcabamba, and while it was great for the second level of the first game, the WAD is not as good otherwise. It did not even have the Golden Idol yet! If you have any ideas to help me, or might be able to modify the WAD, I would be very gratified for anything you can offer. Thanx a bunch, as always.

Hi Cris-Kreg Michaels,

The gold idol? Can I assume you mean the puzzle piece you use at the end to open the last door? If so, I have all the parts converted now and am on the verge of releasing version 2 of both the level and wad. I'm having two small problem right now. One is with the swinging axe. The original is three meshes and the TR4 version is one mesh. I'm trying to figure out how to combine the meshes so I can import them over the TR4 version. And the other problem is the trap door toward the end where you throw the switch and the trap door opens from under you. I haven't found one that opens down yet. The one that I tried from TR4 opened upward, which is unsuitable. I haven't tried all of them from TR4 yet, but I hope to find one that works the way I need. Anyway, once I figure them out, I'll release the level and wad.

Well, I really apreciate your work on the WAD, and your conversion levels are really great (plus you are the only one who works on TR1 WADs other then Sage of Time), but I wondered if you might let me or other people modify the City of Vilcabamba WAD for our levels, because I really want some objects that are not even in TR1 as well as the ones in Vilcabamba. I would like boulders, spikes, roller blades, and some other stuff. If you would permit us to base it on your WAD, that woulkd be great! The only problem afterwards is finding someone to help me modify it, 'cause i am actually on a MAC .
Anyway, just thought I would show my appreciation, and ask a request. Thanx a bunch .

Hi Cris-Kreg Michaels,

In the readme it states at the bottom:

* Copyright / Permissions *

Authors may use this level as a base to build additional levels.

So, yes you may use it as a base .

Oh, and thanks for expressing your appreciation! You'd be surprised how little feedback some of us get on our levels!

Take care,

Thanx King Spyder !

Well, anyone willing to help me put additional things into this WAD, as I am on a MAC and cannot do it myself? Please?

You're welcome!

Oh, as long as the objects you need aren't from custom wads (I generally don't download them), I can help. I do have Tomoko's wad with the Raptor, T-Rex and a few other things, if you need those. Just e-mail me at KingSpyder@thefreesite.com telling me what you need and I'll put it together for you.

Check your mail, King_Spyder!

BTW, do the raptors and T.Rex actually work? If they do not, don't put them in and put a crocodile in instead, if you can. If they do, put 'em in by all means! Same thing if only one works.

Again, thanx so much!

The raptors I haven't tested fully. The T-Rex works, but I haven't been able to kill him. According to Tomoko, you can only kill him with the Pistol or Shotgun. I haven't tested this yet.

Yes, I did. Sorry, I haven't been able to do anything until now. I will get it made up and sent to you ASAP.

Go ahead and put the dino's in, both the T. Rex and the Raptors. I need a final boss, at any rate...

Well, thanx so much for doing this! I look forward to getting the WAD!

Again, thanx a bunch,

Tomb Raider: Temple of Chiholtopec

The year is 1997, and Lara is in search of the Golden Idol in Ecuador. Hiring a guide, she desends deep into the jungle and to the hidden Temple of Chiholtopec, the ancient god of metal. But the guide turns on her as she opens the temple, and the traitor shuts Lara in in the process. Lara is now forced to continue deep into the tomb of Chiholtopec himself with nothing but her wits, and a pair of charged pistols.

Coming Summer 2002
