Hey Stickboy,

You can use Windows Paint, but it's a very basic program :-[

It would be better to go for a program like Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop, both are commercial programs though. Another alternative would be a freeware program called Pixia 8)


You will also need a program called DXTBmp, which will allow you to convert your textures into a recognised FS format.
