Default A small Xmas Present - TRW Animation Utilities!



Hello there!

I've decided to release something I've been working on since August, keeping it under wraps, and give it out as a Christmas Present to the TRLE Community. What I've made is a set of small TRLE tools used for doing simple modifications to animations in the TRW format. Amongst these tools are:
  1. A repositioning tool for offsetting the position of a whole animation

  2. A rotating tool for rotating an animation by a specified amount of degrees

  3. A trimming tool for extracting animation fragments out longer animations

  4. A mirroring tool for mirroring Lara's animations!


The tools work very quickly, even allowing you to edit collective groups of animations in less than a second! It has never been this simple!
The tools are very easy to use, as explained in the included ReadMe file. These should be especially useful for animators, but I hope other people will find them handy too!

Here's the download link: [link not working anymore]

Enjoy and Happy Holidays!


*** EDIT ***
You can find a working link to these tools in our Resources-Tools.

This could be a lot of help towards this project I'm working on. Out of curiosity does this program open .WAD files or .TR4 files?

@DJ Full: Yes, precisely! All the functionality without the hassle of exporting the TRW's to spreadsheets.

@NoahCrofRaider: It works on the TRW files that are exported out of WadMerger's Animation Editor.

For me the whole "hassle" was not exporting/importing but getting the OpenOffice to work correctly with Excel sheets: figuring out which version of Java allows it, then bypassing a bug which doesn't allow that version to work even if it was installed... nah. Thanks for sorting this out
