In the year 2000, Core Design granted us a great gift: their TR4-based Level Editor, which allowed people to create custom levels. It was, unfortunately, quite limited, hence why over the decades it was upgraded massively with fan projects such as Tomb Raider Engine Patcher (TREP) and Tomb Raider Next Generation (TRNG).
- TREP was a tool which allowed modification of the executable to expand certain limits and implement new features.
- TRNG built upon TREP and provided many new tools, including a scripting language, expanding even more limits with its own .DLL.
Unfortunately, TRNG's toolset is poorly documented and not user-friendly; the program remains closed-source to this day and is in all practicality an abandonware.
