I've just installed TR Level Editor on my laptop. It works fine except rotating the room once it has textures is really really slow, even with face edit off

Hi Colin!

Maybe your 'puter is too slow.I have an old Pentium II 400mhz desktop,and when I'm working on a large room(8+individual rooms)with a fiew baddies and face edit on,I too get some slowdown!My harddrive is taking the strain of 6 months build up of junk though.Spring cleaning season soon.

Thx 4 the reply

This happens the minute you apply your 1st texture and the screen then only updates about once every 20/30 seconds. Yet it will run the game fine which must be more demanding.

Remember the TRLE was developed as a tool for in-house development of Tombraider 4; while the game itself is designed to run on most systems, even the slower ones with little graphical memory, a tool like this is not developed with such systems in mind.

Then again, the 1.5Gigahertz systems with 1GB of 400Mhz RAM are already on the consumer-market, and it's getting increasingly difficult to purchase a computer that runs under 800Mhz.

Best regards,
