Hello.

The question:

I downloaded the head meshes with the glasses and the small ponytail from Lara's Wardrobe.
I tried to load them in strpix. It loads but some textures are messed up. I tried in all the wads, but none of them works.

Do I need a special texture file for this?

I hope you can help me as I like that sunglasses head of lara. Will you create a ponytail with glasses head too?

The second question is about the clothes. Am I right when I think that I can use outfits in every wad? If so is it enough to include all files with lara in the name into my new wad or do I need to include more than that?
Maybe you can post a list of objects that need to be exported from one to the
other wad (in TR West).

Thanks for your time.
DarkStar.

hola
as far as the texture isue goes, it's important to note that textures them self's can not be stored in a dxf file. however the texture maping info is stored in the layer info of the dxf. when a mesh is edited this can cuse textures to be rearanged. I think each of tommy's meshes coinside with an outfit he's made. so if you d/l a wad you will also get the right textures.
the mesh is made available to ofer a smaler download, and a foundation for you if you would like to texture it you self.

and trwest will alow to move an outfit from 1 wad to another. just import the lara object you like into the desierd wad.
C ya.. rob

Dark Star,
Rob is, as usual, correct!
However, I did create the head meshes to use textures that are already in every wad you just have to reisert them in the correct places
Try running STRIPIX in two windows. one as a reference and the other the one you're working in. This'll make it alot easier to find all the right pieces.
If you want a regular head with glasses, I'll whip it out soon, which wad do ya want it in?

Well well,
I will try that out. I don't have an outfit of your site yet. I didn't know that the meshes work just with your outfits.
I sent you an e-mail as well and I hope we can solve the other problems in ICQ (it's easier).

Thanks to you both.
DarkStar.
