Scales of Anarcrothe
software by Andrew Fradley, article by Ben Lincoln
This application was written by Andrew Fradley. It can replace items in the rooms of Soul Reaver for the PC with other items from the game.
Usage:
- If you have not done so already, make a backup copy of your Soul Reaver bigfile.
- Use Soul Spiral to extract the contents of the bigfile for Soul Reaver.
- Use Scales of Anarcrothe to open one of the .pcm files in the kain2\area folder structure (see below).
- When finished modifying the file, use the Replace function in Soul Spiral to import the modified .pcm file.
Using Scales of Anarcrothe:
- The top pane controls which object types are in the room. To change one of these items, double-click its name and replace it with the name of an in-game object (e.g. matsrevr). For a list of objects, look at the names of the folders in the kain2\object folder structure.
- The bottom pane controls the instances of each object type. Clicking on one of these entries will allow you to select any of the object types listed in the top pane.
- Changing one of the entries in the top pane will replace all of the instances in the bottom pane of the old item with the new one.
This application requires version 2.0 or higher of the .NET Framework, which is available at Windows Update or the Microsoft website.

The Soul Reaver isn't an effective weapon, but it looks cool

There are a few glitchy animations that might have been related to it

Or possibly to sword-like weapons in general

The crazy trails from the Lighthouse Demo reappear

The trick is to turn off Raziel's abilities, pick up the Reaver, then turn them back on
