Mouse and keyboard controls:

left mouse drag ... rotate the camera
Shift+left mouse drag ... pan the camera
right mouse drag ... zoom the camera
left mouse click ... select a bone
Ctrl+left mouse click/drag ... position model in the scene
(Shift+) arrow keys ... precise positioning of models on the ground plane (two speeds)
(Shift+) Alt + arrow keys ... vertical positioning of models (two speeds)
Numpad1, 2 or 3 or Q, W, E AND left mouse drag ... rotate the bone around the X, Y or Z axis
F2 ... camera quick save
F3 ... camera quick load

To rotate a character, use the root ground bone.

You can choose the current camera target ("look at") from a drop-down list of predefined points of interest.

It's also possible to import and export characters' poses from/to files using the menu as well as load and save entire scenes.

Program belongs to Dusan.
I do not own the music.

Enjoy, and feel free to leave any questions in comments.

@finlandyashagirl No, XNA Lara is completely free.

You can get the costumes on the site that I linked (TRForums), otherwise do a google search and you should find something :)

hi, well i just want to say........... will this program, have an affect on my competer, like viruses, cookies, spyware, laggy affects, please tell me before i down load it, ok because i came up with a good story line for laura ok thxs

p.s. reply as soon as possible, thks

@power2daplaya Hi. No, there's no viruses or spyware that I'm aware of, but it's always good to have an antivirus program scan your download, just in case. Other than that, it's a relatively small program, so it shouldn't slow your computer down.

Be sure to post a video of your story if you're done :)

Have fun!

I've still been having trouble with the download.. I can only download 1 file before it keeps telling me that I have to become a 'premium' user. Which costs money. What do I do?
