I just don't no how to change objects textures in strpix, i have tried everything but i just don't no how. Iam i the middle of creating a spooky level and i want to add the Sarcophagus and the Funtiure 5 object, ( Thats the thing where lara moves the top and she can grab something inside of it, You no what i mean? ). Well i am gonna add that to my level but the problem is that it has Egyptian textures on and it would look stupid if i put that in a spooky level, So i wanna change the textures to some XIAN textures, How do i do it? I have got the XIAN TGA set, does that help. Right could someone plase give me a step by step on how to change the Egyptian textures to the XIAN textures i mentioned. Iam begging and going down to my knees, please could someone help me because i need the Sarcophagus in my level. PPPPPP_LLLLLL_EEEEEE_AAAAAA_SSSSSSSSSSSS_EEEEEE

I'll explain as good as I can. In Strpix scroll to the sarcofagus mesh. Press Ctrl on the keyboard and with the left mouse button, click somewhere on the sarcofagus, to get the egyptian texture shown on the part with the textures. Press export and sve it as a bmp image somewhere. Open it, and either, hand-draw something, that you think will look good, or resize a texture from your xian.tga in the size of the bmp and import it in strpix (import the same texture, you exported), and do this to all textures. Backup your wad after every change! sometimes it might chrash for some reason, and it's better if you have a (working) backup for it.

Ok, When i go into Strpix and find the Sarchopagus Mesh it is all grey and has no textures on it. The same is for all of the other objects ( They are all different colours to what they usually are ). So when i EXPORT it in to a paint programthe BMP is grey!

How do i fix this

You may have too many objects in your wad. I happened on this problem myself, so I got rid of a couple of objects and all was well again.
