v2.7.2

It seems custom levels have more ways of storing sounds, so this version will catch errors loading sounds for now so the level can be loaded. Fixes for sounds for NGLE levels will be worked on.

What's Changed

• Catch sound errors for customs, update to 2.7.2 by @chreden in #1322

Full Changelog: v2.7.1...v2.7.2

v2.7.1

Small release after 2.7.0 to fix some issues with sounds.

Thanks @lahm86 for finding the issue with customs and working together on the fix.

What's Changed

• Add missing call to generate sounds for TR1 PC by @chreden in #1305
• Add handling for demo TR1 levels by @chreden in #1308
• Check SFX folder for MAIN.SFX on remastered levels by @chreden in #1310
• Update sound map reading to cope with customs by @chreden in #1314
• Update version to 2.7.1 by @chreden in #1316

Full Changelog: v2.7.0...v2.7.1

v2.7.0

Notice: The 32 bit build has been removed and only a 64 bit build is now available.

New Features

Some highlights from this release, see the changelog for full details.

NG+ Support

Added support for remastered level NG+ mode. Use the NG+ checkbox in view options when available to toggle NG+ mode. This will change pickups to how they appear in NG+ which is mostly swapping medipacks for weapons and ammunition. Detection of the level is based on the filename so they must be as they are in the game folder for this to work (ie. BOAT.TR2,EMPRTOMB.TR2). This will most likely change to checksum detection in the future.

Height differences on route

If the Notes view option is enable the difference in height between waypoints in a route will be displayed in the 3D view.

Background loading

Levels will now load in the background so the program doesn't hang when loading. This isn't normally noticeable on official levels but will help with loading custom levels that have large textures.

Lua Bindings

Several new Lua bindings for plugins have been added. See docs.

Sounds

Sounds now appear in the level when the Sounds view option is enabled. In the new sounds window you can play the sound if MAIN.SFX is in the same folder as the level. For remastered levels this will need you to copy the file - this will be addressed soon.

The sounds window also has a sound board that allows you to play any of the sounds in the level.

Hiding items

There is now a checkbox in windows that have a list that allows you to toggle visibility of all entries in the list.

Camera Position

The Camera Position window should stay in place relative to the bottom left more effectively now. It can now be closed. Once closed it can be re-opened from the Windows menu.
