Hello, I am trying to hack the old Playstation Tomb Raider games, specifically the first 2. I plan on changing textures in the game, but I have run into a problem. I assumed that all PSX games use the TIM format for 2D textures and I tried to use TIMViewer103c to extract the textures. However, it didn't work and then I remembered someone telling me that TR doesn't use the TIM format, but something similar. I did some research on google as to what format the PSX TR games used, and I got nothing. So my question is, what does the PSX TR games use for texture formats? Are there programs that would allow me to rip and reinsert these textures just like there are rippers/reinserters for TIM texture games? Also, is there anyone else out there that has/are working on PSX TR projects? Can someone link me to their project webpages? Thank you. |

Something tells me it might be easier working with the PC versions. | |||

Would be a -lot- easier. Theres a ton of stuff out there for the PC versions, editors, programs, convertors, objects, yadda yadda.. And that was years ago when I was involved in TR editing, I'm sure it's expanded even more since then. | |||

Yeah, but the PC versions are incompatible with XP, which is why I wanted to make a PSX patch for people to use. (edited by sb iq on 08-08-05 09:26 PM) |

Well, it works in DOSBox... What's the error? Does it work with VDMSound? |

Originally posted by sb iq Only TR1 is DOS, the others are all Windows. Since it was TR1 you wanted to edit though, I can see your problem. Even so, I was able to run it on XP. You can run "any" DOS program on XP with some tinkering or external aid. (Like DOSBox which was mentioned, though I don't know if it supports TR..) |

There is a windows version of Tomb Raider with hardware acceleration support, I got some special edition along with an expansion pack a long ago. I bet there's a patch available for vanilla Tomb Raider, as is the case with most PC games during the Voodoo days. |
