Q&A
Are all three games fully playable from beginning to end?
Yes! If you encounter a bug, please file a ticket.
Can we get HD textures? What about other visual updates?
Regarding HD texture packs, that feature is not currently planned.
As for other visual updates, being able to introduce reflections and skyboxes shows that quite literally the sky is the limit. TRX is constantly getting new rendering improvements and texture fixes. But great stuff takes time.
Can I play this on Mac, Linux, Android...?
Currently supported platforms include Windows, Linux and macOS.
Can I play this with a controller?
TRX supports a wide variety of controllers out of the box with no additional software required. The keyboard or controller controls can be fully customized in the Controls menu with multiple layouts. Multi-key combo shortcuts (up to 3 keys) and two binding slots per action are also supported.
What about TR4 support?
TR4 work is well underway! Still early, but we're moving fast. Keep track of progress by checking out the changelog and release showcases. Please note that tickets for problems specific to TR4 raised before the game is fully supported will most likely be closed.
