Title: Need somebody to do me a favour...
Post by: FOTEPX on July 19, 2011, 01:11:23 PM: Basically, I need somebody to change one of my .bmps into a transparent .tga, for my BB2 bot. If you do that, I'll (kindly) ask Freeziez if you can have a definite spot in BB3 (if I win)

So, who's up for it?

Aah, I see what you did there.

Neways, here's the logo if anyone wants to have a go.

Yes, I know the file formats .png, that's just so I can preserve the quality until it's .tga'd.

I could sharpen it up for you and that might help.

For some reason, .tga's always glitch up on me in RA2.

@Squirrel Yeah.

Ask someone else.

Actually, what program are you using? If you're using Gimp Ra2 hates RLE compression.

Could someone vote him up for me?

Post by: Badnik96 on July 19, 2011, 03:50:40 PM: I gotta thank Conraaa for that tidbit too, it explains why the number icons I did for people's NT2003 cars were effing up in PDN but not some TGA editor I found (PDN compressed, the other one didn't)
