Hi. I want to know if it is hard to make custom levels. Do you have to have programing skills? I you do then I don't know if it is worth it for me to get Chronicles on PC. (if it does take some programing skills, would I be able to learn on my own?) IP: Logged |

It's like working with Windows or something(you don't have to know computer language for that, do you). You just have to use your mouse clicking on everything. This is a MAYOR SIMPLIFICATION but in essence it's not more than this (if you don't go 'extravagantic' on your level).  It's just difficult to create an original level, and to get it all just like you want it. And if you have a problem with the TRLE or you want something (like an outfit or objects) you can ask it at this forum. And I must say, there is a HUGE amount of stuff to be found here! And if someone hasn't made it already, I'm sure someone will make it for you. I can recommend it and I've just been working with the TRLE for about a month, and I'm amazed what I can do even if I am computer ignorant! IP: Logged |

I've been working on the tutorial level for 3 days, and I'm only on pg. 20, But I like the level so far. I'm personalizing it to make it awesome.BTW, does anyone know why when Lara goes into a shadow, it doesn't show much of a shadow on her? Just curious. Not sure if it's normal. ------------------

Are you using a shadow bulb? Or an effect bulb? Check if the particular bulb has the "ON" button pressed. The blue one.Guess the effect bulb does not affect objects or Lara. And oh, yes itīs worth it!

Peace is but a shadow of death, desperate to forget it's painful past...
Though we hope for promising years, after shedding a thousand tears, yesterday's sorrow constantly nears.
And while the moon still shines blue, by dawn, it will turn scarlet hue.

I believe the correct response is 'it is a fair cop' , however it is also plain to see that the statement contained an element of ironic humour and to most, would not constitute such a reply and could not be seen as anything else but that which it was intended. Thank you for your diligence all the same TRwad.
