Since we just finished discussing the Tomb Raider manuals, searching for
Winston's name, Who knows what two things changed in the manual, when they
changed, and what the cryptic one stands for??

Inu-Yasha
Feh!!

(more than 2 things may have changed, I'm refering to two I noted, and they
are not company names or personnel. The 2 I mean were always there, then
poof they were changed or gone!)

I don't know of any changes, but as to cryptic, are you referring
to "HFCIT" near the back of the TR 1 manual?

BINGO! on the criptic one, I seem to remember from years back that what
HFCIT! stood for was explained here, but my memory cells are unclear on the
subject. ^_^

How about the other? It was pretty obvious, 'cause I noticed it. <grin>

In an email from one Suzy at Core (at the time).... HFCIT is "How
Freaking Cool *IS* This!!!!" spoken with a delightfully Brit accent of
course

I'd just had to rave to someone there about just how cool all the "set"
textures were and how incredibly fluid the animations of our Lara So
I just sailed an email Cores way and got a nifty response

Thanks, I couldn't remember what that stood for, now, no one mentioned when
the change came about nor the other, and it was 'British', change. ^_^
