But you said before when I asked about exporting posable models from tru in the .mesh format that you've allowed, you said it isn't that simple, and that there was lots of tweaking and changing that had do be done in blender and other 3D programs before they were ready for use. Also, how does XNAaraL do it? If he has different scripts and such to you, can you please give him permission to release them?

The .mesh format exists in two flavors: ASCII (human readable and editable, generated by UnpackTRU) and binary (used by XNALara). These two formats are convertible, I can provide the two conversion programs (MeshAsciiToBin.exe and MeshBinToAscii.exe)...
To modify the meshes manually, you edit the ASCII version of the model in a text editor and then convert the file into the binary format that can be read by XNALara.
When editing the ASCII file you have to be extra careful to maintain the internal consistency of the data so that it can still be used by XNALara. It can be kind of tricky...

Yay, yes please! Hooray! How do we open them in a 3D graphics program though? Thank you! Thanks for this!

Okay, ClankDaxter and others who wanted to change the floor texture of my CliffClimb model, here is a patch: CliffClimbPatch.rar Basically, just extract to XNALara\data, and it will automatically overwrite the ground texture to a nice sandish colour

EDIT: Here are some images that I made too.


And this Amanda one, I'm not entirely sure if I've showed it here or not but ah well if I have


And this one I'm pretty sure I've shown before, but I still love it

Miss Croft, have you seen my cat?

Haha! I didn't mean to post that Amanda image again I'll change it now.

I'm not going to tell you where that bike came from You just have to guess! It's very easy to get, but as soon as someone does, I'll post a download link (Oh and it isn't in my ordinary Downloads folder, so HA! Don't bother evenchecking )

Don't you just hate MediaFire? It's ok though, there's an easy way to fix it - just close down the Internet Browser. Not just the tab, or refresh the page or anything like that. You actually have to close it down fully, and then reload
