Is there any way to detect cracks in textures with TombEditor? Or is that something I won't have to worry about while using this editor?

AFAIK there isn't a crack mode. You'll still encounter cracks if you don't match up wall segments, BUT the expanded texturing options make it much easier to apply textures uniformly without needing a lot of segments!
EDIT: for example, a wall like this would need to divided into many segments to avoid squished textures. And then to avoid cracks, the every wall connected to this one would also need to be segmented the same way. Leads to a lot of excess segmenting just to avoid squished textures and lighting issues. But since Tomb Editor allows you place irregular shaped textures (maybe "free form textures" is a better term?), no extra segments are needed! Uniform textures, no cracks.

Hey guys I'm trying to make a flipmap thingy thing but I'm having some difficulty, I saw in a thread that if you press ''F'' your map is flipped, but it was using the trng engine, so I'm not sure, any help please?
Btw I have sent this message 3 times already but it doesn't seems to be sending, I hope that I'm not spamming. |

I have discovered that it is relatively easy to discover cracks with that additional option. Of course the room must be textured first bevor using this option in addition with lightning mode. Last edited by Die Basis; 07-07-20 at 20:35. |

I have been having another new problem, but this time it is related to the title level.
It is a weird problem that I don't know why it is happening. I am trying to create a new title flyby for my level, and the title flyby itself works fine. The problem is that when I try to load one of the levels, the game simply crashes. The game does not crash if I am using the official Level Editor title flyby. I also tried doing things such as copying one of my levels and replacing the title.tr4 file with it. The game does not crash either. I also tried importing a blank .prj (I am using tr2prj to recreate some Tomb Raider 2 Gold levels) and it works fine too. But for some reason if I try to create a new, plain level for my title flyby, the aforementioned bug happens. Note: This is not the actual title flyby (the final version). It is just a test room I created to both test objects I am going to put on the title flyby, and also to learn how to create one (I've never created one before). Maybe that is the issue and is why the aforementioned bug is happening? Last edited by YumaS2Astral; 07-07-20 at 22:44. |

Hey, sorry but I'm back with another question about flipmap which is now about triggering it, well first I go to flipeffect > flipmap instead of just flipmap (since the params of flipmap are actual specific stuff)
I go to the flipmap type ''flipmap ON'' and that made the own room that I have the trigger in flip. But now what if I want to trigger another room, but with it's trigger in some other room?? |

I still haven't managed to solve this - I'm loving TE more and more but, this is just more annoying than anything.
Enemies DO NOT WORK properly when building via TE. Normal enemy slots - their bodies flash invisible when shot at TRNG swap enemy slots - they wont move from their SQUARE. Their limbs jingle however. It's definately 'active' No pathfinding makes it 100 times worse. Yet - if I re-export my original NGLE TOM file and convert - everything is a-okay. I even tried for example - adding a well reported working enemy from TRsearch into my new Wad2 and putting it in my map. If I convert via old TOM, enemy works fantastic Export via TE? Enemy walks aorund in circles -and is also half way into the ground with a huge glitching shadow. Whats the deal For context - i HAVE assigned my script.txt in TE. Everything else works - besides enemies. also as per others suggestions as it's a PRJ import - I have MOVED every room on the map. Last edited by mizuno_suisei; 09-07-20 at 00:43. |
