Is your CD rom not autostarting? if this is the case, just go to 'my computer' and then double click on the drive letter that corresponds to the CD rom. If it isn't the case, please give me a little more info.

When you unistalled the editor did you 'unistall' it or just delete it. Sometime the uninstall leaves things behind. Check to see if there are any folders left and delete them if there are. Then do a restart of windows. Now try to install the editor again.

I think the best way to add another level to the script is to copy one of the other levels (The block of information about the level that starts with the title) which corresponds to the wad you are using and then just change it accordingly. If you still have trouble with it ask the person from whom you got the wad if they can do the script for you.

I had the same problem the other day....... I had clicked on a file in the script folder and it had done "something"..... after that tomb4.exe would not run..... illegal operation etc.

It turned out that English.dat and script.dat had deleted from the TRLE folder hence thee were no levels to run.....


running the script script.txt command in dos solved it nicely though.........
