I recently got Tomb Raider Legend for Xbox (Free with the purchase of Timesplitters: Future Perfect for 12.99 :) ) but I've noticed a lot of glitches. I don't think the Xbox version is as popular as other versions so I made this thread to help people who've run into some problems. :D
Problem: Lara's shadow is missing or dissapears where it normally would be (Applies to all realtime shadows):
Solution: Just empty the Xbox cache by playing 3-4 other Xbox games, letting them load to the title screen. Games that take awhile to load are more effective. After this, reload Tomb Raider and the shadows will be working properly again.
Note: This could also apply to other glitches experienced in this game or other games as a result of a corrupted cache.
Problem: You got stuck by the generator at the bottom of the pit in Kazakhstan and have no way to restart the level or load a previous save. You can't fit through the moving doors for they have stopped moving.
Solution: Follow the steps at this webpage. http://www.tombraiderchronicles.com/tr7/walkthrough/level05.html
Scroll down until you find the glitch and there will be instructions on how you can get out using a tricky jump. This glitch happens in any version but is more common in console versions.
Problem: I haven't got this far yet but apparently there's a bug at the end of Nepal that makes it impossible to finish the level if you jump on a certain ledge.
Solution: http://www.tombraiderchronicles.com/tr7/walkthrough/images/screens_level07.html This page details a way to finish the level through an alternate route if the end scene is still able to play (sometimes the end scene never starts from this bug which in unfixeable.)
Hope this helps some! I'll add to it if I run into any more really bad glitches. I welcome anyone to add more helpful info to this thread. I've heard of other really bad glitches in future levels. From now on I'm having a lot of different savefiles! ;)
