Here's an idea for the level editor. Wy don't you creat TEXTURE FILES from TR 1, 2, 3 and 5...
And another idea:
EIDOS should creat objects like BOSSES and stuff, or a editor where you can make your OWN OBJECTS...

There are already textures for TR, TR2, TR3, Chronicles and the various Gold editions available on some fan sites. And I doubt that many of us have the time and resources to be able to create our own objects, even if we were given the tools from Core. I'm sure all of us wouldn't mind getting more WADs to work with though. Perhaps a level editor expansion pack is in order: a collection of updated WADs from the various TR installments, a WAD compiler (so we can mix-and-match objects from different WADs), and possibly a WAD editor. I'm sure many fans would love this, and it would give Core some extra cash by unloading these tools for a price.

Just putting in my two cents.

but i find it would be a better idea if they give us the editors of tr1, 2 and tr3! so that we could make swamplands and so on! i hope eidos will give us them! all on a cd or on a site to download! how do you think about this?

Since the TRLR editor has so many more features than the ones for TR, TR2 and TR3, I think that most people would rather use the TRLR editor. The few small features absent from the TRLR editor hardly justify the release of more editors. Maybe Core could just "tweak" the current editor to allow for quicksand, and other things that are absent.

Maybe Eidos has to make some sort of "shop" where we can download textures, more baddy's, bosses, new sounds, and if people have created GREAT levels, they can place them there so people can download them...

It would be nice to be able to take diferent items from WADs and combine them to form new WADs but I'm beggining to see why this has not been included as part of the LE. I was playing with the WAD textures last night using the strpix editor. It's amazzing how mixed up the graphics are in that thing. It's like a gigsaw puzzle.

Well done to anyone that has edited Lara!

I guess that if you were creating your own WAD you would have to patch together the graphics manually and then assign each part of the graphic to an object. And that's just the graphic, what about AI and Animation. Complete Nightmare!
