Save wad. Use STRPIX to extract Von croy head dxf from new wad. Find Guide head replace with Von croy head. Use the same idea to replace other parts. Once complete you can use Wadmerger to delete any unused items e.g. SAS and Von Croy. Please Save and test after changing each part. Backup after you know you have a working wad. I did a guide Pierre over the last couple of days which seems to work ok in Settomb level. Thanks psxsaves IP: Logged

psxsaves Member Posts: 41 From:England Registered: Nov 2000 | posted 05-10-2002 08:20 AM Hi You should work with existing WAD's just create copy of all the current WAD files (e.g. copy of settomb.wad and others relating to settomb) under WAD directory. Once you have the copy rename the files back to something like settomb2.wad Now run wadmerger and open e.g. settomb2. Copy over Von Croy to the WAD. Save back over settomb2. Open STRPIX and open e.g settomb2. Use the mesh drop down of STRPIX to find von croy head. Use extract to get the DXF of the head. Now use the mesh drop down to find Guide head. Import the extract DXF to Guide head mesh slot. Click Save Follow normal instructions for compiling the level (make sure you open the new wad!) Thanks psxsaves IP: Logged
