Problems injecting a certain texture

Post by farklem »

I am trying to mess with some of the skins in bloodgulch and am having a problem injecting the "sky\clear afternoon\bitmaps\sky clear blue". I have tried saving the texture as DXT1, DXT3, and DXT5. When I try to inject the texture, Halo Map Tools tells me that it needs to be DXT2 or DXT3. I am using photoshop 7.0 and Halo Map Tools 3. This is the only texture that I have had a problem with sofar.

Thanks!

i only encountered this problem with the actual blood ground file.

if you click on the original file, it will tell you what DXT it is (the ground is 2/3). saving it as DXT3 worked...

it looks like sky clear blue isn't even DXT... its A8R8G8B8... see if you can save it out as that.

my idea is to take the snow bitmap from BG(i dont know why its there either) and just inject into every flat ground piece on BG

this will be hard. yup. i might even have to try

just try resaving the bitmap again, try 1, 2, and 23..
If your significance is that but significant then is there another with significance?
