The Official Tomb
Raider Level Editor


This is the full version of the
official Tomb Raider Level Editor. When installing, select
Custom Install and uncheck the DirectX7 box. If you try to
install DirectX7 Windows XP will chuck out a serious error message
at you. This is due to trying to install an older version of
Direct X onto your machine.

Bremse - YGG
Software


Nice little tool that
slows down your CPU and stops the Level Editor from spinning out of
control. Simple to use and you can even turn it off without
having to exit the programme (Aus is Off - An is On). I find a
setting somewhere between 65 and 70, depending on the mood of my PC,
does the job nicely.

PrjMerge v 1.1 -
Aktrekker


Fabulous little tool
that is absolutely indispensable, especially in Team Projects.
With this tool you can merge 2 prj maps together. In team
projects this makes setting up level jumps an incredibly easy task
as level builders can swap prj files with each other and simply
merge them into their own maps. Of course, always back up your
files before attempting a merge, particularly if your level is
already pushing limits.

Tomb Raider Level
Manager v1.4 - Paolone




The Tomb Raider Level
Manager will install and play all your Tomb Raider custom levels at
the click of a button. But this is only scratching the surface of
its capabilities. It does require careful setup when first
installing and running, particularly if you are a level builder, so
make sure you read the instructions and follow the tutorials. Once
you have this programme setup properly, you will never be without it
again.
This version is in
English, but there are other language formats available (Italian,
Dutch, German, Chinese, French and Spanish). For more
information on these, for installation instructions and tutorials,

Tomb Ripper

A nice audio ripping tool which works

TR Custom
Screens V 2.0 - Iceberg

format.

TRFix -
Aktrekker


Another indispensable
tool from the amazing Aktrekker. If your PRJ file is giving you
serious problems or won't even open, this may very well fix it for you. Worked for me and saved
a broken level and hours of frustration. Works on XP too. There are
a few issues with it, like phantom triggers being scattered around
the level (which will disappear when you output the WAD) but as a
last resort to save what would otherwise be a ruined level, this can
be a real life saver. Instructions on how to use this tool included
by Aktrekker in the download.
