And u probably haven't noticed that I was gone. Oh well, I decided to take a break from making 3d movies using Maya 2.5 unlimited and start back into Tomb Raider Level Editor. And there are somethings I would like to ask.
1) How do I make changes to script? I'm told to make the changes, go into dos and run script script.txt , I do that and it says cannot find german.txt and yada yada .txt. And when I start the game I don't see the changes like in the level select, I put the name of the level I want, but it doesn't show up. Nor the message at the beginning of the level. The year 2000 thing, I changed it in the script and english thing, but no change in the game. help is appreciated.
2) Switch to a new level. How. I don't understand fully how to do this. Is there an object involved? I tried making a trigger on the floor and I changed the trigger to finish, and the type left on trigger. In the box beside trigger I put a little 2 inside there. I go to that area in the game and it doesn't load anything. It doesn't even do anything.
3) Why doesn't the boulders kill the bad guys? I set boulders to run over some bad guys yet they don't die?
4)You guys are really smart so I know you'll help. Thanks.(I know it's not a question but who cares.)

Make your changes to english (edit, don't add anything to this file, or all your menu choices will be one letter, copy these changes into script, to make sure they are exactly the same. Don't add legends, change the one for tut1 then cut and paste it where you want it. Don't worry about the cant find us.txt etc. Try Easylife from our tools page to help the conversion.

Make sure you actually set the trigger, there should be a pink square there, when you click on it, it should say trigger:finish

Don't know about this could be hard-coded try different bad guys, the motorbike will only kill certain baddies as well

THANK YOU!!! I don't know how to make this sound not creepy, but i've been watching you guys, well mostly what you post. And you are very helpful. It's like a family in here. And I hope you mind having an extra sibling. NOTE: That sibling is me.
