BTW - The zipped file (five-level game w/script and english files as well as hyperlinked readme) is 49.9 MB or maybe a little smaller. I really want to submit this somewhere.

Free, 50+ MB web hosting service would be nice, too...

That's a damn big download!!!
Try breaking it up so each level is a separate download.
If you aren't doing level jumping back and forth, you should also consider each level playable by itself, but provide a script for people to play them all together if tey want to.

Instead of 5 TR4 files, you could place 5 tom+wad files. If you zip each tom with respective WAD, the size of the file will vary between 3 - 5 MB (EACH).

If you zip each TR4 file, the size is about 7MB.

Are you using the original WADs provided with the Level Editor? If you didn't make any changes to the wads, you can simply distribute your tom files!

Hope you find a solution.

Thanks! Now the zipped size is cut back to 25 MB!!

And I am going to try to consolidate similar WADs into a single, slightly larger WAD file that people can just rename.
