when strpix 3,5 shows you something wrong, you better reset your pc, as sometimes it may happen that the openGL with somevideo card create this problem.Then, select only STATIC objects from the STATIC box.
In this way, once you select for example static 2, in preview in the 3D window how the static 2 is.
Check the "visible" or "collision" point, in this way you see a yellow wireframe box which shows you the dimensions of the collision for enemy and the engine, and the collision for Lara. But it works only if you started selecting the static object from the static box, and only if you checked the "show collision box" field.
Then, once you are right with this, you will see the collision and visible box changes.
If you have a geforce video card, it is normal to have problem as it is guilty for the trasform and lightning feature, so once you get problem you simply can restart strpix, and if you get them again, you have to reset your machine. I am sorry, but this is how it works to me. But apart from this, is it still the best custom tool, for my honest opinion
