We calculate two-pion correlation functions from a dynamical string model situation and from a Bjorken-scaling solution. The effects of hadronic decays and final-state Coulomb and strong interactions are included. Correlation functions are shown to depend strongly on both the total transverse momenta and the direction of the relative momentum of the pairs.
