Apologies for a dumb question on doing repaints, help appreciated!

Hi all, 

 

I'm designing a new livery for the Mitsubishi changing the PSD format material supplied  from the Flysimware website. I've looked in the FSX and Prepar3d and the Textures are BMP files. My software (Affinity for a mac) wont export the files in a BMP format.

 

I would be helpful if there is a decent bit of software others have used to convert the files reliably that someone could recommend.

 

I'm sure there are forum questions on how to install the new livery so I'll take a look for that, would be great if there was a little app to do it rather than manually, backing up the previous. I might write one actually. 

 

(The Mitsubishi MU2B-60 is my favorite aircraft, along with the Lear.....the turbo cessna 441.....Grumman etc  

 

Kind Regards

I use dxt bitmap manipulator to open texture files, then send the opened file to my graphics software, usually GIMP, to edit, then save, then reload the image in dxt bitmap manipulator and save.

 

dxt bitmap manipulator can be found at this address.
