Hi Levi

Ja, ich habe dein Savegame erhalten, hast du auch meine E-Mail-Antwort darauf erhalten? Hier ist sie noch mal zur Erinnerung:

Hi Mario

Ja, ich kann mich dunkel an dieses Level erinnern, aber leider nur noch an den Timerun mit dem Rad. Unten habe ich den Walkthrough kopiert, kannst du mir bitte markieren, an welcher Stelle du da gerade bist? Oder hast du einen anderen Walkthrough verwendet? Wenn ja, kannst du mir den bitte schicken, und markieren, wo du bist?

Gruß
Tom

Level 9 : Imhotep's Challenge

Begin by turning around and blasting that gate with your pistols. Go inside to find Secret #2. Outside again, you?ll need to slide backward down the slope and grasp the edge. Shimmy as far as possible to either the left or right. Climb up and do a back flip with a roll and grab the ladder. Climb down. After killing a couple enemies, take note of the gray wooden door in the SW corner. Go through the crawlspace in the NW corner to find a wooden mechanism. Lara must pull about 8 times to raise the gray door, then rush back to get through the gray door before it shuts again.

Inside, jump the ditch to reach a switch. This opens the other door in the SW corner. Exit through the underground tunnel and enter the newly opened door.

Solution to the Room with 4 Switches and Deadly Trench.

This room has 4 switches, one in each of the corners. These switches do two things. First, they open four gates in the hallway off the south wall of this room. Second, they raise and lower two little bridges in the central trench of fires and spikes. Begin by crossing the trench to the south side. Pull the switch in the SE corner to raise a bridge in the east part of the trench. Cross this and pull the switch in the NE corner. Now, use the crowbar to open the nearby gate. Inside, jump to the opening above the east end of the trench and pull the switch there. This opens the gate leading back to where you first enter the room. Go there (mind the fire trap)and pull that switch now. Finally, cross back over the trench and pull the switch in the SW corner. The hallway is no clear.

Climb the pole and back flip over the spikes to the east. Follow this path, opening some doors , and shooting two wooden trunks along the way. Drop down in the hole at the end of the corridor and slide to the bottom. Push the doors open to find yourself back at the beginning. Repeat this route, this time jumping over the spikes to the west at the top of the pole (note: as you slide at the end, there is a fire trap on the side).

Push the lever in the SE corner back up to make a bridge over the trench. Exit back to the room with the two ladders (where you start the level) and find the raised block in an alcove on the south side. Pull the jump switch above to open the door in the north wall. Make your way around the outside of the fire pit there and pull the switch on the far wall. Two blocks have been lowered in the area high above, at the top of the ladders.

Back in the beginning room, climb the ladder on the left (as you face them). Move Lara as far to the left as she will go. At the top, climb over and begin sliding down the slope. Jump and veer Lara slightly left and grasp the edge of the walkway. Pull up and use the monkey bars to swing across, following them until Lara is in front of a crawl space. Drop down and enter the crawl space and pull the switch at the end. Exit the crawlspace. Stand Lara facing the wall under the crawlspace and back flip onto the slope behind and grasp the edge. Shimmy all the way left . Do a back flip with roll and grab the ladder. Climb to the bottom.

Look up toward where you entered the level and you will see a new opening in the wall. To reach it, climb the ladder and do a back flip with roll to grasp the edge of the opening. Inside, you?ll find Secret #3 (a GOLD STAR) hidden in an alcove off the fire pit. Use the slopes to get to the secret and to exit.

Return to the main room and climb the ladder on the right this time. Use the monkey bars on this side, near the closed gate, to swing over and find another lever. This opens the closed gate back by the beginning of this monkey swing. Do the same as before to get back to the ladder . Climb back up and make your way through the newly opened gate.

Next comes a series of boulder traps, so make a savegame before going on. Slide down the first slope and IMMEDIATELY run or jump to the tile below with the black diamond. Without stopping, move Lara to the base of the slope ahead and jump up. Immediately turn left , run and jump over the small pit. Activate the reach in switch in front of you (you will hear a door open nearby). The tile with the black diamond is now on fire and the tile just next to it is also a fire trap. Jump to the slope to the left and above the fire and slide back and grasp the edge. Now Lara can climb up and do a back flip over both deadly tiles.

Jump over the boulder and head around the corner. After the small lava pit, stand facing away from the slope. Do a simple jump back and immediately run forward and left, jumping back over the lava pit as a boulder comes crashing down. Head back to the slope and up to the first step. Again, face away from the step and do a back flip on to it. Immediately run back down and to the left, jumping once more over the lava pit. It is now safe to follow the sloping hallway. At the end, use the monkey bars to swing all the way forward and then to the left. Drop and grasp the edge of the opening and climb in.

To open the gate, you need to move the game pieces onto the squares with the corresponding colors.

In the next room, head to the alcove in the southern wall. Inside, on the left is an open trapdoor under a switch. To the right is a white square. This is a timed sequence. Lara must step on the colored square, then run to the other side and pull the lever before the trapdoor reopens. Next head to the eastern alcove. Back Lara as far up the slope as you can, then back flip up the slope and jump forward to grab an overhead switch. Finally head to the northern alvove.

Light a flare and look down to see a lower landing to the right. Jump down to it. Look down below to see a gate. First, turn around, drop off and grasp the edge of the landing. Use the ladder to climb around to the left into a dark corner. Inside, jump and pull the overhead switch. Use the ladder to climb back around to the front. Still holding the ladder, do a back flip with roll to the ladder behind. Enter the crawlspace and step on the colored tile. Now make your way back to where you entered this room. A raised block allows you to pull a switch and open the gate back in the northern alcove.

Inside the gate, you must make your way up a long sloping corridor where 2 boulders will fall. Lara can take shelter in the alcoves along the sides to avoid the boulders. When you reach the room at the top, look around and find a passage leading to a gray game piece and a closed door. On the other side is a closed gray door.

Now, follow the passage leading out the other side of the main room. You will now be standing above the room with the alcoves. Jump to the catwalk with the red puzzle piece.

Notice the color of light emanating from each of the four alcoves on the level below. You must manipulate the four colored game pieces to the colored tiles nearest the alcove with the same color (south = blue, north = green, east = yellow, west = red). The gray piece in the center is only there as an obstruction. Once all the pieces are in place, one of the doors in the previous room opens (cut scene). Push the gray game piece there through the door and position it in front of the giant hammer. Pick up the puzzle piece after the hammer falls.

The receptacle for the puzzle piece is on a column in the SE corner of the room outside. Placing it opens the gray door nearby. Head inside and collect your prize ? the SILVER STAR.

Now Lara must make her way back to the beginning of the level. The quickest way is to go back out to the catwalks with the colored game pieces. Standing near the red piece, angle a simple jump while holding the ?action? key down to land safely in the alcove below. In the next room, jump to the monkey bars and follow them all the way forward (don?t turn to the right) until Lara falls off and lands back near the start of the level. Make your way over to the receptacle near the closed gate and use the SILVER STAR to open it. Follow the corridor inside and open the doors at the end to arrive in a vast area with 4 glass-topped pyramids.

Area with 4 Pyramids

The first task here is to move the four gray game pieces onto the tiles below the translucent blue spheres. This raises a block along the west wall of this large room. From there, Lara can access a jump switch which will open trapdoors inside all the pyramids, except the one in the NE corner. Shoot the glass tip off one of the other three. In the north and south side of the room, Lara can jump and climb to a place from which she can run and jump into the top of the pyramids (save your game first). Inside, slide down two ramps and jump over the spikes to grab the pole at the end of the second ramp.

Climb up and back flip to the opening in the west wall. Follow the passage to overlook a room with colored squares on the floor and a switch on the far wall. Lara must carefully jump on the squares which are below ceiling tiles that do not have a skull on them. Pull the lever and make your way back using the same tiles. A fly-by scene shows the artifact at the top of the structure in the center of the four pyramids is now accessible. Exit via the long ladder to the west.

Once outside, look for the new jump switch in the NW corner of this big room. This opens the trapdoor inside the NE pyramid. Jump into this pyramid and be sure to angle the jump so Lara slides down backward. Grasp the edge at the bottom. Drop and grasp the gap below and shimmy around to the right for Secret # 4. Now you will have to make your way out of the pyramid as before.

Once back outside, use the climbable surface on the large central tower to retrieve the DJOSER EFFIGY. A cut scene shows the exit opening back near the beginning of this level. Return there and jump through the newly opened door. Make sure you collect the BLACK BEETLE on the column just inside the door before continuing to the end of the level.

Back in Level 8

Ich habe bei deinem Savegame auch nur einen Schalter gesehen, aber da es bei diesem Level kreuz und quer geht, es also nicht linear verläuft, wußte ich nicht, was du schon erledigt hast. Aber jetzt kann ich das noch mal Punkt für Punkt durchgehen.

Hi Levi

Jetzt ist mir klar, welchen Fehler du gemacht hast:

Dieser Raum hat vier Schalter

Das darf man nicht so verstehen, daß da, wo du jetzt bei deinem letzten Savegame stehst, vier Schalter sind, da ist nur einer, und den darfst du erst am Schluß drücken. Mit "Raum" meinen die das gesamte Gebiet da unten. Tu den Hebel wieder nach oben, und schau mal zur Lava, da ist dann eine Brücke, wenn der Hebel oben ist, über diese Brücke mußt du rüber, und dann findest du drüben noch zwei Hebel, die zu diesen vier Hebeln gehören, und dann mußt du halt nach der Kompaß-Angabe den Hebel drücken, wie es in der Lösung steht.

Du mußt also über die Brücke zur anderen Seite, und den Schalter in der SE-Ecke drücken.

PS.: ich habe dir eine E-mail geschickt...
