When you are in Wang's Master's Level, (near start of game) There are four women in the stage according to some screen art I saw. One with Green hair is on the toilet, and there's one in the waterfall, one by the master's side, but the last one I could never find. I think she was a redhead?

Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

Upon furhter investigation, according to this page, the redhead was never used.

Well, now a decades old mystery is finally solved for me. Anyone out there who was just as confused as me, now we know. It seems that sort of graphic was too controversial, even for this game.
I have heard reports that the redhead girl was in as late as late beta and one of the release candidates but concerns over how it would appear (considering that Duke Nukem 3D had almost gotten taken off the shelves a few times) they decided to remove her from the game shortly before release, her voice still remains in Shadow Warrior's grp file though but there was not enough time to fully edit her out.

kinda a cool fact though

did little to help shadow warrior though.
the game was going to have the redhead show up when you found waing's body and she would commit Seppuku. they cut the sprite from the dame because naked anime girls were controversial enough with out adding ritual suicide to the mix. the game is basically every Asian stereotype turned up to 11 and done in the same style as duke nukem 3d.
I was about to ask if someone found a Tomb Raider reference as show here: http://www.3drealms.com/sw/level4.html (i found the secret itself, but it looks different), but link from the first post explains everything :)

I never knew there was a different Lara sprite originally. Here is my screenshot from the Redux release on Steam.

Yeah, the other Lara Croft version was originally used in the demo. When the Tomb Raider developers saw it, they sent 3D Realms their own version to use in the game. :)

Yup, the same I found and was curious if this is some less naughty version made especially for Redux or it was in original as well. Now I have my answer :)
