My manual is on Acrobat Reader and I don't like it one bit. ------------------ UTTERLY STUPID FACT OF THE DAY: Yesterday the window cleaner came round... I'd forgotten that I left a replica Desert Eagle on my bed, clearly visible. You should've seen the dude's face, thought I was a psycho or something!!! Come check out my... err... half finished website IP: Logged

Then start asking here in the forum all the questions the manual did not explained (there will be a lot). IP: Logged
wgell Member Posts: 254 From:Lochwinnoch, Scotland Registered: Apr 2001 | posted 08-13-2001 01:43 PM No read manual. No learn editor! I didn`t want to read the whole thing either. What I did was to print of each section in turn and learned the tutorial progressively this way. It took me two weeks to work through the manual this way and a further two weeks to produce and release a playable level. I`ve now made five and have nearly completed a sixth purely working with the editor wads. I still have to look up the manual occasionally as it`s so easy to forget even the simplest things if you haven`t done them recently. The manual is pretty poor. It`s very sketchy and in some places inaccurate. But opening the prj files of the TRLR levels in the editor lets you see how a lot was done and you can then back engineer a lot. But you HAVE to read the manual. If you just press buttons you may get a rubbishy wee level by about 2010. ------------------ Will Gell IP: Logged

I read all of the manual at once, with a two day break before I read the 'Designing Tomb Raider' section. ------------------ Visit my newly updated site: http://www.tombraiderconnection.8k.com Brand new better look and content, for every TR and TRLE fan Or Email me james.mcc@btinternet.com IP: Logged

I read it over and when I got the LE I was well on my way. ------------------ DUDEcroft IP: Logged
