I downloaded a level and its not clear how to run it. It says I need to "convert" the tut1.tom file. Convert it to what? And how do I convert it? And how do I run it?

to use that level you first have to replace the tut1.tom file in the wads folder. The folder is at:

C:\Program Files\Core Design\trle\graphics\wads

Then goto the start menu...Programs...Core Design...Tomb Raider Level Editor...Tools...Level converter.

when you open level converter click add script

Select tut1.tom

click build all.

Open up the Tomb Raider Level Editor game and your game will be under Playable Tutorial level.

Before you replace the tut1.tom file in the wads folder you should make a copy of it if you don't want to lose the original playable tutorial level.
