i dont need to know if they have mips but i need to know if they are saved in dxt3. exterior textures mainly.and what about the upcoming 747 will it be all dxt textures for better performance.

I think the NG has 32bit textures. Don't know about the 744 yet.Hope it helps,

The NG has 32bit textures. Although I've converted all of mine to dxt3.

Ok thanks which textures did you convert i've been trying to do this but wasn't sure which ones to convert, also did you add mips after 32 bit to dxt3?

The stock textures are a combination of 32bit and DXT3 textures. I converted all of the 32bit textures to DXT3. This increases load times and reduces file size on the HD. Of course, I kept a set of the original ones in case I wanted to go back. I did not add mip maps to any of the textures.
