Description
This features the classic XPS jeep ported by Oo-Fil-oO.www.deviantart.com/oo-fil-oo/a…
It has the old XPS format, which current XNA/Lara could not read.
After Oo-Fil-oO kindly confirmed they were incompatible, I figured a different approach, AKA 'The See-Nik Route'...
So, XPS to PMX using Mariokart64n's free DA utility. Yes, it even reads old versions.

Then, PMX to FBX using Truebones' ($$) utility. (v1 = 'Hues only')
FBX imported cleanly to Poser at default 100% scale.
I applied the four jeep parts' textures by reference to PMX via free PMXeditor.
Gunslinger is a CoD-BO3 Seraph from set ported by M4ZTeR.

Ground-cover is from a very nice Nelmi seamless set ($) found on Rendo.

I dialled Poser U_Scale and V_Scale to 0.01, Displacement to 0.4 to get this fuzzy look.
I made an ambient map from the jeep's diffuse texture for the lights using free Irfan View, dialled it to 'super-ambient'.
After a couple of quick local Superfly test-renders, I sent 64 pixel-sample job to my networked 'Box', where it ran in ~½ hour...
Phew !!
