hi, if i go into maps directory, and if i would open tga maps, not all open it.

exemple by Berlin directory: Map_F.tga don't open it by try to view into photoshop, or any other graphic program, know you reason?

because, same map_F.tga, into another directory so as Batalon directory, it open it.

so i ask you, if you have same problem, or if you have sucsess to open all tgal file?

[fly_zo]

... some tga's are unreadable by standard graph. editors ....

you need to set that tga as game loading screen ( gui\background0.tga) take screencap while game is loading (print screen) and past it as new tga in graph. editor ....resize to original dimension.... edit as you like and save as tga with original values ( 8bit if grayscale or 24bit ... 32bit if alpha channel present)

cheers

p.s. check PM please ...

[fly_zo]

yup, i know all that ....

for alpha channel you need to create it manually after screen capture

for dimension, well try using dimensions from other map.tga files ( h..T ...) ... for normandy map_F is same size asmap_h and map_T

for textures is 512x512 pix
