Using DXTbmp

Postby Scorpiоn » Fri Jul 23, 2004 12:42 am

I'm trying to replace the German National Flag icon, which apparently is saved in 16bit 444-4, in CFS3.

However, whenever I save the whole image is skewed.  Any suggestions?

What a headache... >:(

Was a lot more trouble than I think is worth putting into a 27x22 icon, but, oh well, mission accomplished.

In the end I just did it with Photoshop after I learned a little about what extension the BMP was.  It is still not completey "authentic" so to speak, as all extended bitmaps can be previewed with XP, and all I get with my file is an icon saying PSD. :P At least it works. ::)
