Blurry Re-paints

Postby Jaypee Dippel » Wed Jun 10, 2009 9:37 pm

What step am I missing? I use DXTBmp and Paint Shop Pro to alter a texture, decals or stripes or something. When the changes are made I save as DXT3 or whatever original type of extented bmp it was before closing DXTBmp. When I view the plane in the sim it looks deteriorated and appears blurry. What am I doing wrong? I'll stay on line a while, Any help would be greatly appreciated. :-/

After you modify a texture, make sure to disable mip-maps on the file. That is most likely causing the blurries.
