Guys, I am looking for a new version of the Wikipedia encyclopedia to use with Tomeraider 3. I have only located the year old 180Mb version. Someone must have a newer version of Wikipedia optimized for version 3 surely?

They're still having problems.

Hmm, I think I'l uninstall Tomeradier 3 and install version 2 to use the ready-to-use 180Mb version.

Hi there,

I am also waiting for the next TR3 Wikipedia release.
But there's no need in reinstalling version 2 of Tomraider to
read to old files. Simply convert the old file using the desktop version
of tr3 into the tr3 format. Probably takes a while but at least you
can stay with the current version.

Cheers,

Jens

Fair point. I'm new to Tomraider. :D Cheers.

Why not have both TR2 and TR3 installed? They don't conflict, using different file extensions - tr for TR2 ande tr3 for TR3.

Isn't TR3 faster than TR2? Why do you reckon I should go with TR2 as well? I only want TR for Wikipedia. :)

The speed is probably about the same, but that's irrelevant. 99.9% of tr files haven't been converted to tr3 format. So what good is TomeRaider 3 until the files have been converted? Use Tomeraider 2 for your tr files. I'm aware of a grand total of 5 tr3 files.
