How do I get the large medpack on the tallest pillar in the five switches room?

This bit is a secret you shouldn't be able to get to (but Core through it in anyway):
First go up onto the white block next to the pillar. Then walk to the edge, looking out into the room with your left shoulder against the pillar with the medikit pack. Now turn 45 degrees left and keep jumping. Jump about 10 times and you will instantly be on the top of the pillar. If it doesn't work after ten jumps move a little closer to the pillar and turn more.
Cheers go to William for that cool bit of info, thanks a lot!

How do I turn my lead bars into gold in order to use them with the machine?

This follows the legend that Midas turned anything that he touched into gold. So what you have to do is walk up to the hand of the broken statue and hit action on it. Every time you do this, Lara will get out one of the three lead bars and turn them into gold.

You may find that this isn't working or Lara is dying when you try it. What you should do here is save just before you do it (on PC and Mac anyway, I pity you poor Playstation owners) and try it on different sides of the hand. Try out the side that you came in first up and move on from there if this doesn't work.

I'm in a central room with lots of switches on one wall and I can't seem to get anywhere. What should I do?

If you have a look above the closed doors, you will see that they have some symbols on them. One of them is Ù but I can't remember what the other is (we'll call it v for now). Ù means that you should put the switch up and v means down. If you look at the amount of switches, you'll see that it's the same as the amount of symbols on the doors and obviously you throw the switches in the same order as the symbols. Top, email us
