Geothermal Caverns Bug

[Ben]

Make sure VSYNC is on otherwise you'll get a broken box that breaks your game file.

Yep, I got this bug today and it completely softlocked my game. I had to use cheats to fix it.

Alternatively there's a great website which escapes me which has the save files for 100% completion

It'll mean discarding your progress, but if you only want the story it'll get you back in the action asap from the closest checkpoint

Worth a check, if not, back ups people!

Hey, the 100% save file site I referred to is:

https://tombraiders.net/stella/savegame/TR9saves.html

Might put your a checkpoint or two behind, but better than restarting entirely.

I don't know of any cheats or no clip mods, best of luck though!

Okay guys, i've successfully found a save file to exactly this place:
1: open https://tombraiders.net/stella/savegame/TR9saves.html
2: download: Areas 16 & 17: Cavern Entrance & Geothermal Caverns
3: copy the "55% geothermal caverns (catacombs base camp)" named file to your save files, for me, its: \Steam\userdata\39004559\203160\remote folder, and rename it to: "save1.dat"
4: start the game, change the settings to vsync: triple buffer
5: hit that cloud again with the fire arrow!
6: enjoy! he seemingly collected every collectible until this checkpoint!

--you saved my game, was about to give up. Thank you so much

If you guys are playing older games, Vsync tends to be a big issue

Older game engines are tied to frame rates (E.g. Fallout 3, Darkness 2)

Glad this thread worked out for all!

I tried this and it broke my camera movement

What did you try? Happy to help :)

Just in case you guys ran into this bug and were still able to reload your checkpoint like I was (and changing the vsync didnt work) try lowering your graphics setting, thats what did the trick for me!

What cheats did you use? I can't find a "super jump" cheat or something like that
