To be clear for everyone else doing this level. I just finished the main story with 95 crystals. The achievement requires 93 crystals. I am guessing on the two levels with the separate path, (Indian quad + this Kayak) going back to collect crystal the opposite path you chose, is NOT needed.
As a kid, I would always take the kayak behind the hatch. I really had no idea about how to take another path through the level. Of course I used to see the bridges, crystals and paths along the rapids, but I could only wonder how to get there and since I always managed to beat the level, I never really cared. And I would always hit the red ropes, activating traps haha... now for the first time I ventured through unknown parts of the level for me. Even found out there's another kayak. And that glitch to go up the waterfall and take the first kayak, what the heck was that? How do people find out these things? hahaha... Thank you.
These games are still best played with Tank Controls. The camera is fine. Just so happy you can save anytime in Tomb Raider 3. The level of difficulty and challenges are incredibly difficult in the original game. Its classic Tomb Raider and its great.
I love TR 1 and 2, but 3 is kinda....meh. By the way: You dont need all Crystals for the Achievement, only 93 now. So no need to pick up 9 in this Level!
16:30 is literally impossible, I have no idea how you did it. Thanks goodness I've picked South Pacific for last because getting the all crystals achievement AND all the secrets for All Hallows at the same time is going to be impossible without restarting from this level.
It worked for me, it took me 30 mins and about 6-7 reloads to do it, but i did it! tip is to save halfway up the rock on the last bit and then if you mess up you can just load from there
It was definitely frustrating for me but don't give up! Pause at 17:12, you can stop pushing forward and save right there, getting to that spot is the hardest part. Then if you fall on the next part, just load your save file. Then hold forward and a little right so that Lara occasionally paddles twice in a row on the right side, but don't push too far right. Eventually you'll work your way up. The last tricky part is stopping. The top level of the waterfall doesn't push you, so it's easy to overshoot the ledge. I did that the first time I got to the top, and I fell down in the pit, then I couldn't exit the kayak so I had to load and try again.
@@mike.t.drinkwater Hey, did you have any difficulty grabbing the ledge at 18:48? I've just spent an eternity doing that kayak trick, finally got it, only to find she wouldn't grab that damn ledge! Even though it looks like she can easily reach it, she just won't hold onto it (tried with both tank and modern controls). I'm so frustrated... 🥲
Dude, the last crystal was not there,when I wanted to get it. In the boat it was still there, but in the end it was not there anymore and I didn't collect it. I had only 8 crystals. Glitch?
OK, I found out, what I did wrong. You must aktivate the green rope on 22:44 and then the damn crystal shows up. God, If someone makes videos like this, they should at least include a description, too. So, no Glitch.
@@Phil_Jay_Falcon je viens de voir cela vous pouvez activer cette corde sans le kayak simplement au moment où vous avez fait tout le chemin à pied aller sur le boc ou la corde ce trouve vous retourner vous accroché et tada le crystal apparaît plus qu'à aller le chercher
turn on tank controls and old graphics. It's much easier to see that you're high enough on the rock to start trying to swim up the slightly less vertical part of the waterfall (17:51).
The 90’s version is more spooky as well due to lack of rendering and drawback. Not being able to see all the way to the back of an area is creepy as hell…..feels like you’re being watched

Also the achievement list is really telling, there are 2 kayaks to finish the level.

I really hate Madubu Gorge 🤣 impossible to pass without getting hurted 😅
Good job with this video.
I agree, this level has always been a bitch for me because of controlling the kayak.

Keep at it, took me ages and i saved in different slots as i made my way up.

@macchaon yeah Lara didn't seem to want to grab it, I had to move almost all the way to the right to grab it.
16:30 - People, Switch to old Graphics and its little easier :)
Edit: And Tank Control
tank controls dont keep my kayak from being forced off the rock instantly
Thank you so much 🙏🏻 100% done… I hated it
This level of skill is Insane!
Bar Nun!
Didn’t know that it’s possible climb up the waterfall to the secret area!

Same 😢

Yeah someone mentioned that and it worked for me. Thanks 😊

Warning: This is not a walkthrough! They didn't even complete the level. The video abruptly ends after they pick up the last crystal. 😔
Yeah, this level can get to fuckery. Pistols out, step forward, step back, crouch, uncrouch, turn counter clock-wise 3 times, jump forward. Bye bye Madubu fucking Gorge.
WOW- That crystal. Brilliant
@15:00 and on is simply crazy
Is the last crystal near zip line not appearing for anyone else?
22:46
@JacktheFilmFanatic-vu1nk I’ll try that, nice one.
@JacktheFilmFanatic-vu1nkOMG thank you so much. That worked for me 😮
Jeez, same staff in these tomb raider game are zero sense
Wow what an annoying level.
I thought ice palace in tb2 was trash but this one.....
Anyone can help me about Crystal #7 please? very hard for me
turn on tank controls and old graphics. It's much easier to see that you're high enough on the rock to start trying to swim up the slightly less vertical part of the waterfall (17:51).
Save your game somewhere around 24:10 in the video and just keep trying. I had to reload my save file several times to get that one.
Is last crystal patched? Not appear in my game
Done. Thnks a lot
20:04 I have door closed how to open it ?
You need to press the switch at 03:07 to open the door :)
Hola en la parte del cristal 6 cuando hago lo del bug del kayak luego no se me agarra al saliente de la entrada, por que?
tysm
I’m struggling on the kayaking part
Same 😢 and it’s annoying to control
@@Deedat101 right
Delay input is just trash
It was easier in the 90’s. The camera is drunk now 😂
It's driving me nuts!!!!
In the 90's TR 3 had a severe bug with the camera. It was unplayable when it would occur look it up
The 90’s version is more spooky as well due to lack of rendering and drawback. Not being able to see all the way to the back of an area is creepy as hell…..feels like you’re being watched
Pourquoi moi le 9eme crystal il est pas la .... serieux quoi
il faut traverser la corde verte @22:46 pour que le cristal apparaisse. Bonne chance!
how do you get out of the canoe?
same as all other vehicles: end+left/right. You need to be in still water though
Pls continue this guide
