Ok I just got the latest and what lloks like the last version of STRPIX3, but being a moron like I am, I have tried to retexture lara's legs to create a camo trouser effect, this seems to work ok and saves ok but when I reload my wad/level back into the editor it crashes with an illegal operation, this happens when it says its texturing objects, am I going about this completely the wrong way or what, I have only retextured the first few meshes in the wad that appear to be her legs, someone pleassssseeeeeee help me

you wanted a camouflaged pants legs lara? just use my school wad or army man wad!

and when retexturing, did you use trwest AFTER retexturing? that will screw things up

As I said if I use your wad I get screwed up animations when lara pushes a wall switch even if I delete the Troops object, I just want to know how to texture lara so I can do it myself

Like a said in the readme.txt:

DO NOT USE STRPIX3 IN CUSTOM WADS, JUST USE
ORIGINALS WAD INCLUDED IN TH CD.

If you are using strpix 3.4 rev 1. then i am
sure that your wad was saved maybe with trwest, or it is a revision WAd.

Make the retexture in a original wad, when you are done, export the retextured object to your custom wad.

Yes you are right, with the old method (direct change) it doesn't work but with the method discribed above it really works
