I believe that if you know a persons problem, don't just skip it beacuse your lazy. Take a moment and help them out. Remember that you were new once too.

are you trying to inject with CH2R... because its error message is dumb, it states the obvous.... lets just say, if i made a Warthog Skin wich is sopposed to be DXT3, but i save it as DXT1 and try to inject, CH2R will say "must be DXT1" wich is just retarded if you ask me, DXT3 for the jeep, and the Scorpion Hull is DXT5.


its just the error message being dumb....

heres a tip, in CH2R, if you need to find out the texture type... look here...
(in the image it is the Warthog, but you find this info in the same place for every texture)
