Download this small utility:http://216.47.133.65/cwb-bin/CrazyWWWBoardLE.exe?db=wb&mode=download&num=69&file=TR4WADed.exe

Here is a small example using the tut1.wad:
Run the program and press"Extract image data"
The program should write a new file named tut1.WAD.raw.Open this file in a paint program(PSP works fine)and modify the textures.When done, save overwriting this file.Next open once more TR4WADed and press"Import Image Data" thus putting the modified texture file back in the wad.Create a level using this wad and see the difference!!!
NOTE:This prog needs the VB runtime libraries(not sure which ver.)

I tried to use your program, however it didn't work - something to do with an OCX file being out of date or the incorrect version.

Do you know what this could be?

This is NOT my program.The author is John Mcfarlane.I suppose that your problem has to
do with wrong vb libraries.I wish i knew how to help you!Anyway,there is a similar app which does the same thing more easily and also allows you to edit the .str files found in TRC(That's the Special Feature images!)
http://www.geocities.com/bart_tomb/strpix.zip
The procedure is almost the same:Open WAD,save as bitmap,Edit bitmap with paint program and save,open bitmap with STRPIX and finally save in WAD.That simple!
