Well, it isn't that hard, but it isn't that easy.
You need the Strpix program to export the texture from the WAD. Then you edit it in a paint program of your choice. Then use Strpix to import it back into the WAD.

According to the documentation it uses Windows BMP format.
That means about any Windows paint program, even Microsoft Paint, will work.

Or you could use Strpix3, and not have to do any of it, just point and click.

TR James,
Modifying object textures is the same as modifying Lara's textures. Visit Lara's Wardrobe and go to the "Tips and Tricks" section for a basic tutorial on how to do it. You'll just have to find all the parts of whatever you're trying to edit with STRPX.
Hope this helps some.
