1. Custom WADs released without any scripts included (no offence ),
2. Pushable blocks that can't be climbed on,
3. Stretched textures,
4. Room Editor crashing half-way through design process,
5. Making an "ace" costume and then discovering it doesn't work,
6. Not being able to export a mesh with the textures on it, and placing it in your desired WAD,
7. Revealing things about yourself in your levels subconsciously.....
8. No cut scene editor or FMV editor (yet)

Ok I had better stop...

I agree with them all, I also hate how long it takes make a tr4 file, especially when you just have to test one thing to get it working right.

    Some more:


    • There's too much Egypt! Egyptian audio files, Egyptian WADs...I'm completely tired of Egypt!
    • The wafer-thin shotgun!
    • You cannot make realistic caves (coz of the squares)!
    • Only 20 squares per room!
    • I hate the room system!
    • The horizon shows up instead of pitch black when textures are too far away (wierd in caves)!
    • EVIL error when bounding a room with objects in it!
    • EVIL corrupted PRJs can't be repaired!
    • You can't have more than one door in one wall!
    • Only 5 possible segments in a wall!
    • Unable to raise or lower segments in a "Toggle Opaticy" wall without the other room to have raised or lowered blocks!
    • You can't have many objects (coz of the way too small range (only 245))!
    • The Room Tex Info range is too small!

    i agree with that
    with TRLE and its WADS you can only design EGYPTIAN LEVELS
    but if you want to create: forests-cities-buildings-houses-your favorite enemies(NOT NINGA )
    you will spend SO SO SO much time to extract objects from other TR games
    and then 50% of them donot work correctly

    I have made a greece style temple level, and some of the coolest walls have EGYPTIAN HIEROGLYPHS. Now I'm making a London subway level, and the only enemies I have to choose between are ugly grey- or red-robed Von Croy assassins or EGYPTIAN soldiers.

    I wonder if there's a level WITHOUT one or more part of Egypt...

    Hmm, I totally agree with the above statements, however, I believe the release of this product, was perhaps a 'stop-gap' in view of the next Lara Croft adventure not being released for another year.

    yes, but doesn't this come down to the age old arguement "do we deserve more?", and in answer to that question I believe yes - if they want to keep a serious clientele. etc., and to keep us folks interested in TRLE.
