Hi freinds,
I unzipped a Lufthansa Cargo textures -only folder and started opening the .bmp files. In some of the files the windows Picture and Fax Viewer displays a "Drawing failed" report.I do not know how to set right the things and view those drawings. Can you help me in this matter, please? Thanks. :(

Have you tried using some kind of art package such as IrfanView (it is the best freeware one)?

These textures will be in Extended BMP format. You can open them with DXTBmp. http://www.btinternet.com/~mnwright/programs/dxtbmp.htm
