LEGO Island 2 Unused Tribal Character Texture

[Mr. Ash]

I found this texture in z23DIP\textures (text161.tga)

None of the tribal characters use these in the PC version, but one of them has a similar face in the Playstation port. It would've belonged to the tribesman whose torso is different from the islander's.

I was about to say "Oh, right, I remember seeing this texture but hadn't made the connection with the PS1 Ogelites, though now that you mention I do remember one with a face like that..."

 

Then I looked at my screenshots of the Ogelites and uh... None of them have that face, exactly. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Though when you're running at the game at its native resolution, a few do look quite similar (those screenshots I took were on an emulator running at an artificially boosted resolution).

 

EDIT: LOL I TOTALLY MISREAD YOUR POST (it reminded me of the Ogelites I suppose) and I have no memory of what the PS1 Islanders look like anyway (besides them having plain yellow posteriors). Though, now I'm curious...

It's been several years since I played LI2 on the PS1, but I remember that they all had printed legs and face/body textures not used in the PC version. Achu carried a large axe I believe. Also, the tribeswoman is bugged; when you interact with her, she speaks Johnny Thunder's first line: "Hello, aloha, and welcome to Adventurer's Island!"

I'm speeding through LI2 on the ePSXe emulator right now. I managed to reach Adventurer's island and find the islanders. For some reason, they're all redheads...

The tribeswoman's speech glitch doesn't occur until after Mr. Hate's Camp IIRC - I'll definitely post a video for that later.
