Hello,

this is some problems/solutions I met with GOG TOMB RAIDER 1-2-3 and Linux wine:

1) you use Linux, had installed GOG TOMB RAIDER 1-2-3 version with wine and now want to apply the GOG update file named patch_gogpacktombraider123_1.0.1.5.exe.
But when you launch it, you obtain this error message (or something similar):

Runtime Error (at 55:1503)

Access violation at address 7D990000 in module 'gdiplus.dll'. Read of address 001B5A5C.

Solution: install winetricks then type in a terminal:
$ winetricks gdiplus

Now launch the update, it works!

2) You just installed the GOG TOMB RAIDER 1-2-3 and when you launch TR2, the game crash.

Solution: Apply the GOG update file.

3) You just installed the GOG TOMB RAIDER 1-2-3 and when you launch TR3, the game doesn't start and ask you for the "Tomb Raider III cd".

Solution: Apply the GOG update file.

4) You just installed the GOG TOMB RAIDER 1-2-3, applied the GOG update file and when you launch TR3, you obtain only this message: "Tomb raider 3 failed To Initialise, Please Run Setup"

Solution: launch Tomb Raider 3 in setup mode:
wine tomb3.exe -setup and choose your settings.

Now launch TR3 again, choose your resolution and click on OK, the game now launch.

5) If you want to change Tomb Raider 2 resolution, launch regedit:
$ wine regedit
go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Core Design\Tomb Raider II\System\
and change this key:
"WindowHeight and WindowWidth" for window resolution or "FullScreenWidth and FullScreenHeight" for fullscreen resolution.

Here you could change FullScreenBPP to 32 .

Like me, if you find others problems/solutions to run GOG TOMB RAIDER 1-2-3 and wine, you can post them here.
Hope this help some penguins dragguing around here.

LGDN.

I found two new problems: after applied the GOG update, Tomb Raider has no more background music and Tomb Raider 3 haven't a movie intro when you launch a new game.
No solution for the moment.

I finally found a workaround to keep music background in Tomb Raider 2 after applied GOG update:

1) install GOG Tomb Raider 123
2) go to Tomb Raider 2 install folder and make a copy of tomb2.exe
3) apply GOG update like described in the first post
4) launch the game: there is no more background music
5) replace the tomb2.exe file by the old one, launch the game, you can ear background music

hope this work for you too.

LGDN

Thank you, this has helped me a lot! :)

thx, help a lot
