A Quickie

Postby Scorpiоn » Thu Jul 22, 2004 2:44 pm

I'm trying to edit one little icon in my CFS3 textures, but this would require DXTbmp and I don't want to download it just for one icon.

I have the replacement ready and all it would require is a copy/paste action.  Is anybody up to it?  I'll send you the old and new texture. ;)

DXTBmp is just over 800 Kb. It would be much quicker & far less trouble for you to download it & do the job yourself. :P

Hey Scorpion,

Why don't you download it, it would give you a chance to learn how to use the program :)

Gee golly wizz Hagar!  You just happen to be everywhere I am... [insert suspicious look here]

A slow internet (not 56K slow, but just-after-a-rainshower slow) and the fact I've never managed to use DXTbmp successfully... But if you say so. :P ;)

It's just a coincidence. Honest. ;)

If you have a slow connection it strikes me you would have the same problems with e-mail. I would willingly do it for you but I must warn you I don't have CFS3 installed. I'm not familiar with the texture formats & I can't check it out. Seems to me it's quicker all round if you do it.

Rats.

Everytime I try to save or preview in any format, the image is skewed. :P What am I doing wrong?

I have no idea. The usual method is to open the image in DXTBmp & Save As in the appropriate format. Always worked fine for me.

I just tried an ordinary texture in DDS format. I thinks that's the CFS3 default. Looks just the same reloaded in DXTBmp so maybe you're editing the wrong texture or something like that.

OK. Good luck. This should be quite straightforward.  It would usually be me that answers it in the Design forum anyway. ::) ;)
