Stuck in the Red Mine
It's a challenge Tomb. I'm at the part where I have to free up a mine cart, but I can't figure out what to do, and she keeps repeating 'got to find a way to free up another cart' and it's driving me crazy. WHat do I do D:

If i remember correctly, that was the tomb with the water flowing down and one rail of mine carts, right?

You have to get on top of the complex, and shoot a rope arrow that connects a mine cart to the top pipe.

Look at the track too to work out where the carts are coming from - if you look at the carts you should be able to work out what to do

One of the carts was easy if I remember, you just rolled it? The other one required you to drop a level and pull a crank to change the direction it was pointing, then go back up and use a different crank to raise it up so you could roll that one too.
I encountered a glitch when I did it... I had to die and reload and there was a whole section of track that reappeared that fell after the first cart. Try that.

If that's not the problem, follow the tracks back while aiming, there should be something you can see to do there.

Shoot a rope arrow at the bottom of the carts, at the back of the room.

I hated that tomb, just because Lara wouldn't shut up saying "got to find a way to free up another cart" over and over and over again :tgrin:

Starting at the camp site, you will jump to the next platform. Do NOT use the bottle. After you have moved the first two carts, go to the top level above the waterfall. There will be a rope coil on the right of the water pipe. Go about four paces to the left of the water pipe, select you bow and aim at the last cart. Zoom in And you will see a rope coil at the bottom of the cart. Shoot it and it will head down the track and stop at the upper bucket. Do NOT jump on the lower bucket. Now stand just to the right of rope coil. Look at the cart stuck behind the upper bucket. You will see the rope coil at the bottom. Shoot it and it will be pinned to the coil on your right. Now go back and jump on the lower bucket. Go back to the center platform and make a Molotov cocktail. The rest is, as they say, history. http://www.ign.com/wikis/rise-of-the-tomb-raider/The_Red_Mine

I am having a different bug here...

The first minecart that should be on the rails is not there, so nothing happens when i jump to the bucket...

I have been going forth and back for more than an hour to see if I have missed something, but can't figure out what it could be.

This is a screenshot of the rails, you can see they are not broken yet but the minecart is not on them nor in the compartment that it should appear later... :(

Any help would be appreciated.

If fast traveling out to a campsite then traveling back to the mine campsite doesn't fix it then
try completely exiting the game and then restart the game...that usually fixes things like you are experiencing..
If that didn't fix it then the 'glitch' got carried over into your AUTO save game...
you'll have to load an older save game and redo the area...or wherever you last made a save game.

In regards to the bug where the last part of the mine cart track is not present, it appears that the developers decided to remove that part of the track altogether in a newer build. It was going to break off anyways after you moved a cart onto it. That part of the track was never necessary to solve the puzzle.

How do you solve it then? Cuz I'm at a loss if the track part to attach the rope to doesn't exist
