YES! huzzah, i've been waiting for you to release an update biggrin.gif

 

Delfi, have my babies, please! inlove.gif

EDIT: any chance theres a list of things fixed? for example the alpha texture bug when importing edited clothing such as the vest? Or if it now works with photoshop .bmp files?

 

EDIT 2: Well i havnt found a single glitch with it so far! everything works. I finally have my new textures in game cool.gif

 

linkage!

I just deleted my old version, and installed the new one over top.

Now even if i just open an extracted txd and save it in txd workshop,

the image gets compressed even though I didnt tell it to, and appears garbled.

 

Is this normal?

oh right, crap, will fix it right now, this applies only to 32 bit textures without

compression and without alpha channel.

 

edit:

 

done, fixed, re-download it.

the fix cannot fix esisting garbled data, but if you uncheck compression and

import images over garbled ones and save it will work again.

 

canney:

you should open gta3.img and player.img with any img editor and extract files,

txd workshop does not open img archives or files inside imgs and i don't have

a img editor for san andreas yet.

 

Sorry Delfi,

Seems its still broken, just redownloded.

Try opening Player_face.txd from player.img into txd workshop.

Even if you do not modify it at all, and just click save, it gets compressed and

garbled.

Thanks for looking into this, you said you want bug reports. ph34r.gif

the truth is that photoshop can't save bmps properly, it is photoshops fault because txd workshop uses windows routines to load bmps, simple.

 

if i can maybe get a few examples of those photoshop bitmaps (24 and 32 bit) it would help me fix this a lot because i don't use photoshop ( i use paint shop pro just like rockstar tounge.gif ).

 

and the bit depth doesn't matter in txd workshop unless it is 8 bit image in txd, in that case the bmp must be 8 bit as well..

R* uses both PSP and PS actually (see taskbar)

 

As for the bitmap saving problem, are people too daft to use TGA? your program supports it, and so does photoshop. its even better for alpha-channel textures, since both the image and the alpha are stored in one file.

 

TGA > BMP

Hi Delfi! I have sent you bmps saved in photoshop. One is 32bit the other is 24. I sent them to your gtatools adress. Thanks again for your program.

 

 

ashdexx: no need to be rude. I simply prefer working with bmps and compiling the alphas in dxtbmp. Also, is the report this post function not working? I have tried reporting the racism in this thread:

a number of times as well as pm-ing mods and still no action after 2 days. I hope racism in not accepted here.

TGA > BMP

Personally, I don't like TGA. I don't like BMP either because the filesizes are so damn big.

I haven't worked with TGA's since NFS4 or something, but back then I really hated it.

 

edit:

I still don't like TGA, or the program doesn't work tounge.gif I export a font image to a TGA file, open it in Photoshop but all I see is the image itself, no alpha channel...

The advantage of bmp is that you just have a greyscale image which represents the alpha channel, much like a mask in PS. Maybe TGA has the same but built in, but it doesn't work for me...

maybe you just don't know how to work with alphas in photoshop, for example in paint shop pro you have to load alpha channel into the mask first using program's menu.

 

i think i should just drop the bmp support, the exe would get smaller and people wouldn't have any more problems with it :S

 

HI, it´s my first post in this forum, and I just wanted to ask if you were thinking on making this work for SA Xbox. Some textures do work, but all of the player skins do not (I *think* that some textures on the xbox such as the ones in player.img are in 8bpp, and those are the ones that dont work. All or allmost all of the others that are dxt1 or dxt3 compressed do work in the workshop) .Thanks in advance, and good job with the workshop.

best of all, add DDS file (import/export) support colgate.gif

 

people can pre-compress their images with mip maps (theres a plugin for photshop that does all kinda of dds-work, see my pinned Texture topic in Textures and 3d), which means less work for your program, plus like tga it also saves the alpha channel in the image, if you know what your doing. its all very handy.

This Version works great... Now is there a way you can make it so you can view all the textures in the txd files before exporting and importing them in tga format biggrin.gif

 

Finding a specific textures can be such a pain in the arse at times.. im semi-glad the R* at least named most of them accordingly.

 

Or better yet.. have a way of exporting all the files in every txd with the folder of the txd it came from... say signs.txd would extract all txd into a sub folder called signs/signa.tga , signb.tga, etc. etc. thus saving the hassles of extracting all files individually into a designated folder. Would make for easy knowing where that texture came from when it was time to replace it back in also.

 

If not.. oh well.. still an awesome texture workshop.

 

Thanks Delfi!

I doubt I need to do that... PNG's with an alpha channel display just fine.

And please don't drop bmp support, TGA is causing just as much trouble wink.gif

What? no it isn't. i have yet to see or experience one error in txd workshop, caused by import/exporting tga files, compared to the atleast 2 topics, of failed bitmap support.

 

Something i dont understand, is txd workshop has had the BMP errors ever since it first came out, so why this surge in interest now?
