Latest update from Westlake Interactive on the Tomb Raider Chronicles port to the MAC platform:

Tomb Raider Chronicles is in final beta testing, and we're very pleased with how it is turning out. Much of the time on this project is now being devoted to the Tomb Raider Editor. The work is going smoothly, we now have the editor up and running on the Mac, with the ability to load and save levels, including objects and textures. Many of the editor functions are working including multiple undo's, preview mode, wall/floor/ceiling selection, and color palettes. We've also made the editor a bit more Mac friendly, supporting Mac menus, dialogs, and open/save dialogs. Current plans are to include the editor on a extra CD in the box with the finished game.

The online manual and tutorial from the PC will be part of the editor package, as well as several small utilities (level converter and others). The final piece of the editor is the special Tomb Raider Player application, which is a modifed version of TR4 that lets you play the levels you create or download from the net. All levels created on the Mac & PC are interchangeable and can be played or edited on either system.
