August 16, 201213 yr I've updated my tool that fixes textures with bad alpha data. It now does dxt3 AND dxt5 files. It's not in the filelibrary yet, but for now you can get it from here: http://www.2shared.com/file/XSoSUfkB/DxtFixerX.html

August 16, 201213 yr Great, can you add support for DDS? I have to study the dds file format first, so we'll see.

August 19, 201213 yr Author Hi, Seems, P3D is really stable on my setup now. With 1.4 right around the corner, it can only get better. For me P3D has now become flight simming at its "very best", AFAIC P3D is my choice for flight simulation...

August 21, 201213 yr Great tool, thanks a lot for youir effort. I tested on FSX and gained smoothness in several sceneries. Will soon test it with Prepar3D. Claudio Colangeli Ex Private Pilot
August 21, 201213 yr Ok so I fixed all the alphas of the BMPs it found with this new utility. (DXTfixer). Now this do fix the alpha channel. Please help an old man here. Another question seemingly related if I read other posts. What is the story with missing mipmaps. I have read further here and found the alphasearcher. This utility now confrm that I dont have any aplha issues anymore (both DXTfixer and alpha earcher returs zero errors), but Alphasearcher is listing a HUGE number of missing mipmap files. What is the effect of these missing mipmap section from the bmp file. 98% of these files are AI traffic. Would you recon I correct this manually. I dont know what the impact is of a missing mipmap. Sorry I have no idea what a mipmap is and even how to correct that manually.
August 27, 201213 yr This a great thread and tool, any reports on .dds files having the same problem? Or if converting DXT1 to DXT3 with alpha shows any improvement?
