Hi Guys

I have been trying to do a quick repaint on a texture set I have for my Bonanza for ages.

I have used Paint Shop Pro and MS paint and I do what I want to do then I save it.

Then I put the texture back into flightsim and .....

WAMO!

The planes textures goes to a blank grey like colour every dam time! GRRRRR

Can someone please tell what is goin' on and how to fix this.

Thanks in advance

Cheers

Are saving them in DXT1 or DXT3 format? If not, after modifying your textures, open with dxtbmp and save as DXT1 or DXT3 (alpha textures must use DXT3 I think).

Get dxtbmp here: fly.to/mwgfx/

It may also be a problem of 24 bit vs 32 bit. MS Paint saves in 24 bit format, so if the model requires 32 bit you must use another program to convert. I use ImageTool to do the format conversions.

Thanks Guys

The DXT program works a treat.
