this should be in Fan Artwork
but you can rip Lara with a program called TRviewer and import the TR4 Lara into 3DS max and let her do moves ![]() however if you have no idea how the program works i recomment to see Tutorials befor you start using it

You can have a look at THIS POST to see how you can extract a TR4 Lara model and use it in 3D Max.
That tutorial only deals with creating animations for the TR4 Lara model though. There´s nothing in there about other 3D Max features like lighting and creating objects. As for AOD or Legend models... no idea how to rip them from the game. I´ve seen some more detailed Lara models around but I have no idea where people got them from.

the problem is that i want to make movies, videos, fmvs so far, and i could use the tr4 models, but they wont keep the movie updated as she cant move or make face expressions,.. thats the main problem, i wont be able to make real close ups,.. and that probably one of the most important things,...
thats why i tend to look for the model of a more elavorated lara,.. one i can really play with, besides im focusing in aod story, if i can rip lara, i could possibly rip kurtis, and the rest of the models, and based on them i could make much more things like new carachters and so... |

Sounds very good!
Uvavoo posted a link to a more detailed Lara model (for use in 3D Max) not too long ago. If only I could remember which post is was in... (my head is like swiss cheese sometimes, full of holes... )I don't know if you can alter Lara's facial expressions in that model though...

If you haven't already bought 3dsmax, I would recommend having a look at Poser. This software is specifically designed for character manipulation and animation. You could map a lara face onto the supplied hi res models. All models contain face morphs etc so you can get a huge range of facial expressions, including eye blinks etc.
http://www.e-frontier.com/go/poser_hps also take a look at http://www.daz3d.com/program/studio/ Which is similar to poser and has all the same power BUT IT IS FREE!!!!
