Nope. PNG only.

Finally he stopped putting his name into the topic title :D But you also don't need to put it in the message, it appears automatically ;)

Nope. Also JPEG.

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

jpg
png  846
tga  824
bmp  822
pcx  897
ppm  820
psd 2124
wal
rgb 1853
    Bytes

Interesting results. Was there any noise added to some of the textures? Or did every pixel stay exactly the way it supposed to?

JPEG files work just fine for textures, too - my HDX texture pack, for example, uses them extensively.

Every pixel stayed at its position. With jpg this wouldn't work and I couldn't export it to wal. The bmp file...

Nice, thx for info.
I guess wal would be only interesting if you wanted to make a quake themed texture pack or something similar.

With high resolution textures this is not a problem, but with lower resolutions, if you create a texture pixel by pixel, the noise can be annoying.
