first when u download it choose a place to download it to(any where u want)

and then open the downloaded folder there should be in there a file either a tr4 or a TOM file (for example if you opened the folder and in there it had a file which was called city.TOM you have to copy it then go into the graphics/wads folder and paste it over city.TOM it then should say replace with etc...... choose yes or save whatever it says. and then there should be over city.TOM
now open the level coverter and click on add and choose city.TOM and click on ok now click on build all ( wait about 20 secsonds and it has finished then open the tomb4pc.exe and then go on new game then choose city of the dead and you should be standing in the middle of their level.

oh and download this level it is my level it is the coastal.TOM so just do the stuff the opposite way round but just do it for coastal instead of city of the dead

Start the room editor and load the original project file. Output the wad file then run the converter.

This will restore the original level.

I think we got mixed up here. To play the level you downloaded put tut1.tr4 in the data folder and house2.tga in the map>tut1 folder.

When you are finished playing that level, restore the original by running the room editor and load the file tut1.PRJ
