Re: Glidos TRX textures in TombATI

Posted on 2021-05-11, 20:54

Yes I am always talking about real retro hardware :) You'd have to ask other hardware/software experts in that case, I'm just a lowly designer. @Glidos, thought I'd mention that with the knowledge that TombATI requires 32bit PNGs, I did the 2048x2048 pixel test -- and it works! So individual tiles …

Here is the message I previously sent to someone wishing to perform the conversion: Fantastic, thanks Paul, I'll see if I can get this to work. I'm still using Windows 7 (!) and have some kind of linux-like add-on for web dev, so I'll give it a go... I would really love to see a redone 256x256 …

OK, cool thanks. Absolutely no rush at all, there's plenty for me to be getting on with for now. It's interesting to go back to this after so long, gives me a chance to see some of the stuff I'd finished and never shared, and new ways to improve everything too. I've decided to undo some of my …

Aha, thanks for the tip about the file format changing. I hadn't noticed that the TombATI textures are all 32 bit PNGS, rather than the 24 bit I was exporting from PhotoShop. I was using an older method for exporting, but have now found a better way which exports in 32-bit and TombATI is happy. I'll …

@Glidos Is it possible to modify a LEVELx_y.PNG image in a TOMBATI texture override folder, to test out work in progress textures? For example, by pasting a 256x256 different texture over the top left corner of the 1024x1024 texture? I've tried this out, but it seems that if I even change one pixel …

Hi Gambit, I'm excited to see you back and willing to work on your pack again! Old timers don't know when to quit :D Hi there, it's been a long time, hasn't it! I should be clear I'm making no promises,: returning to finish my texture packs after all this time is just for me to scratch a creative …

Hi Paul, thanks for the quick response! Good to hear there's a tool/script to help with this: the thought of having to rebuild all those 1024x1024 tiles by hand would likely send me to an early grave :D Incidentally, does TOMBATI support anything higher than 256x256 per tile? I tried a quick test …

Just a quick check in to this topic. I am considering returning to my TRX project to finally finish it after, oh, fifteen odd years or so...! There's still a lot of unfinished business here, ahem. ;-) But I'd like to make sure that any new texture packs will work on both Glidos and TombATI. How …

Glidos TRX textures in TombATI

Posted on 2018-10-23, 15:35

Hello! Yes, it is I, Gambit of the TRX project, who has not been seen in these parts for many years. I am still alive :cool: No, I'm not here to announce new work on TRX, sorry! I just wanted to ask a question about the TombATI GLRage wrapper for TR, and the TRX textures. I can see that the TRX site …

Close DOSBOX status windows?

Posted on 2010-06-15, 23:46

Everytime I run Glidos with DOSBOX dos emulation, Dosbox leaves a status window open after it's closed down. Do that a few times and your screen gets rather messy. How can I close those status windows automatically when Dosbox closes?

Re: TRX texture re-distribution: naughty, naughty!

Posted on 2008-04-03, 23:56

Wow, that's pretty clever, I never even thought of protecting the images in this way. Will that stuff be preserved if resized? Because any TRX textures will have to drop to 64x64 for old school levels, or at best 128x128 for the newer modified game engines. I'm not bothered about this janie white …

Re: TRX texture re-distribution: naughty, naughty!

The issue isn't the distribution of the textures: we don't mind if they are used as part of a level that someone wants to distribute (well, I don't mind -- what about the artists?). It's the lack of courtesy in respecting our licence which doesn't ask much of people: don't redistribute the textures …

Re: TRX texture re-distribution: naughty, naughty!

It gets even more interesting, God Horus then sent me this: You have another problem, Janie White just sent me the textures, and she is saying that she made them all on her own, and that they are not made by Tomb Raider Xtra, when she actually sent me all of the textures from Tomb Raider Xtra.com. I …

Re: TRX texture re-distribution: naughty, naughty!

It was someone else on the Tomb Raider Forums who let me know about the violation. I followed it up with God Horus, and he posted a report on the item to say that I'd contacted him and that it should be removed. Oddly, he stated that he'd asked the admins of TRsearch if it would be OK to upload it …

TRX texture re-distribution: naughty, naughty!

Posted on 2008-03-29, 12:38

http://www.trsearch.org/Items/2842 Someone named God Horus has redistributed TRX textures on TRSearch in "level-editor ready" resized and shit quality TGAs. I've asked him to remove them. Just thought I'd let you guys know about it: Hi there Are you the same God Horus who recently posted Tomb Raider …
