( NOTE TO LAPTOP USERS: Many laptop computers have no numeric keypad, so if the Ins key is not convenient, you can reassign the Look key. Hold Look while pressing direction keys/buttons to look in different directions. Look (labeled "Ins" on some keyboards) shifts perspective to what Lara sees. (Also used to make Lara grab in certain combo moves, below.) automatic targeting and combining items are covered at the bottom of the page.Īctions include firing weapons, picking up objects on the ground, using switches, keys and puzzle items, activating the light built into Lara's headset, etc.
(See Menu & Inventory, below.) Using the headset and laser sight, manual vs. To equip the headset, choose it from the inventory ring. In addition to drawing and holstering guns, this key also used to deactivate Lara's headset (available in the VCI HQ levels) or drop a flare without lighting another. Lara drops to the ground and comes up facing the opposite direction. Or 5 on numeric keypad, or Up + Down Arrows together On the PlayStation, pushing the left analog stick lightly can also be used to sidestep. The TR2 sidestep keys, Delete and Page Down, also work here and can be reassigned if desired. More complex jumps are covered under combo moves, below. Lara won't take damage if she WALKS through these. It's also handy for areas with spikes, broken glass, barbed wire, etc. Lara will never walk off an edge, though she will run off. Used in combination with the direction keys/buttons for slower movement. Press forward with left or right to move in that direction. It seems odd at first, but it is actually very easy to make Lara do what you want if you just follow certain basic steps, covered on my Tips & Strategy page. IMPORTANT: If you have never played Tomb Raider before, you should familiarize yourself with the unique control system for jumping. Press the right stick in for Action press the left stick to jump. The left stick moves Lara: push lightly to walk or sidestep, firmly turn or run. PLAYSTATION ANALOG CONTROLLER NOTES: Controls vary slightly from those listed when using an analog controller.
(See Menu/Inventory System & Hotkeys, below.) Whether you are using a keyboard for the Windows or Macintosh game, a PlayStation or Dreamcast controller or gamepad, you can change the controls to suit your taste.
