increasing TR1 draw distance

[tizerist]

does anyone know of any way to increase the fog/draw distance in the game?
any such programs?

No, sorry, nobody to my knowledge has modified the game engine in this way.
It can be modified for Custom levels only (tr4).

I actually liked the darkness after a certain amount of distance, it made it very mysterious. It's one of the things that actually adds to the atmosphere.

They changed the color from black to grey in later games which ruined it somewhat for me.

Isn't it the same in all the classics? 20blocks view distance? I think it was that from the level editor..

The reason for fogging is to do with saving memory as it runs, to keep the correct speed in the game.

So there is no way round this, but as said above, it does give atmosphere to the game not being able to see a large area all at once. A good example being the colosseam level.
