Classic Mode needs mods man, mods and it can't be ignored because Aspyr doesn't care to update Classic Mode anymore then Modern/Remaster Mode.

I am really annoyed that Classic Mode can't have a dress select when it still teases in the menu select it's possible. Gonna beat the game to not be disappoint but when I am I will ask a mod and mod darn, good, and ready for it or wait till Patch 4. :/

From what I remember, the option is greyed out in classic mode indicating that it won't work.
One of the problems is the original games only had one Lara model for the entirety of any given level, meaning it needs to be reworked for that to work.
Another issue is Lara's model in TR1 is very different from the ones in 2/3, and you can't give TR2/3 outfits to TR1 Lara without manually creating separate models for all the new combinations.
It should be technically possible, but it's most likely not a priority for them

They fixed the quicksand code - TR3 - quicksand right at the start of the first level - now warps as it should - finally!! They still haven't put the water wibble code in there - major part of the games - just the crappy "caustics" on the surface.

The quicksand / mud warping effect was already added in patch 2.

I wouldn't hold your breath for the warping effect when looking in / out of water though, since it's not even in the classic graphics for this version. Not sure if it's to do with the source code they acquired or they removed it for a particular reason.
Besides there's plenty of work to do on water as it is since there's now flickering issues and transparency layering problems introduced in patch 3.

Ahhh I didn't spot the quicksand update in path 1/2 - thx. I think they haven't put the actual water wibble code in because it's a post transform 2D effect (I looked at the original src code e.t.c.), Damn I really hope they put it back it - it really is a magical fx for the time!

It'd definitely be nice because it always was a cool effect at the time. But I think they've made little to no changes to the classic graphics unfortunately. I guess they've made it a low priority since most people will just use the remastered graphics, but it'd be nice to have all the classic graphical effects that were available to have a "definitive" version so no one needs to run the originals for it.
