Anyone interested in doing me a favour? I am not good at those texture editing programs all you guys have and i was wondering if some one could re texture a rope green so it looks like vine. I'm sure people making jungle levels would like this too. anyway could you send it to tombraideroz@hotmail.com

thank you very much!!!

You cannot retexture ropes. Like flame emitters, they are nullmesh items. In-game, they show up as objects stored in the animation file (i belive). You need the animation editor to edit those things, but Core ain't giving us that...

The textures have to be in the TR4 file somewhere. I always suspected they were in the DEFAULT_SPRITES object.
If there was a way to just export ALL texture pages from a wad, it shouldn't be too hard to find the right texture to change.

there is a way to export all the textures from a TR4, even the Lara and object textures
try using TRviewer (it's on my tools page on my site) and you might be able to find the rope texture, export it, edit it and import it back in the TR4

hope that helps
