You guys (or girls) have to help me. I have so many cool ideas for my levels but every time I make one, I can't make the .tr4. THE LEVEL CONVERTER DOESN'T WORK!!! I always get an "illegal operation" message. Could you guys (or girls) tell what you do when you make a new level from scratch

The absolute best way is to work through the manual and re-create tut1.tom or tutorial level. You build the rooms, connect, texture - when you are finished you output wad (this basically saves a .tom file - this is the file that you will send to people to give them your level.) Once it has been saved/outputted then start tom2pc.exe or level converter goto add select your tut1.tom file and then choose build all wait while your hair grows then you'll go into the game tomb4.exe and play the tutorial level.

'dont mean to be funny but, errr, are you clicking on the appropriate buttons in the converter?

After making sure your .prj is output to .tom from the EDITOR, once in the CONVERTOR click:


[list]

  • ADD in Edit Script box
  • .TOM file.....OPEN
  • BuildAll

    'd luck.

    Are sure you are saving over the same wad you used to build your level with?
