Hi community,

If you ever wondered why enemies have less details, well, here´s the answer.
Just dropped my skeleton model. I got some parts to work w/ the native´s mesh but faced the problem of detail in TR engine. It´s simply like that; If your model´s too much detail it won´t be displayed correctly -> if bones or such are too thin(e.g. thiner than Lara´s pony tail), you won´t see them until the guy is less than 3 units away. Ok, great effect, somehow, but not the one I wanted. Now I think of doing that guy again but with less detailed structure. Maybe using transparent textures.... God, for that I need a new TRViewer with Texture support in.
