Hi,
We haven't used TexGen with LS-DYNA. The Export->ABAQUS Dry Fibre File option in TexGen produces an ABAQUS .inp which includes contacts. This can be imported into Hypermesh, hopefully retaining all the information in the .inp file. From there you should be able to create a file for LS-DYNA.

Hope that helps,
Louise
