Floating Islands glitch

[Skulduggery]

Started my first playthrough and reached the floating islands recently. I've reached a part in the level where I need to pull a lever that causes a green pillar block to fall into a fire pit which grants me access to another lever.

When I try to drop down onto the block Lara falls right though it. I've tried reloading the save but that doesn't work and I think it's preventing me from progressing. The game has been running with barely a hiccup until now.

If anyone else has encountered this glitch and may know a solution please help. TR II is my favourite in the series and I was looking forward to beating the game.

Apparently, this happens when you pull the switch multiple times.

I can't help you with fixing the issue, but I know a few workarounds that will help you bypass that section.

1. Flight tool - you could use that to "fly/swim in the air" and get to that switch

2. You could download a save file in which that section is completed (and if you want to keep your inventory, write it down and use a save file editor to change the downloaded save file's inventory)

3. Skip the rest of the level (light a flare, walk forward once, walk backward once, start turning into any direction and stop when you do 3 full circles, jump forward)

Cheers, I'll more than likely use the level skip. Unfortunate as I was hoping to get through the playthrough without cheats. Ah well.

Thanks again for the help. Have a grand day and stay safe out there.

I just finished the game for the second time (first time was on epsxe) and had no issues. Maybe you need the updater that fixes some bugs. It's on the guides section btw.
Now I'm about to start the TR2 expo again.
