viewing/editing ground texture files

Featured Replies

Hi,I'm new to scenery design...I tried looking for an answer to my question in the "beginner's guide to scenery design" tutorial, but came up short.I do a lot of flying in the southwest U.S., and I'm not quite satisfied with the looks of the "Semi Desert" (Region C) ground texture set...even with some of the replacement texture sets out there. I wanted to experiment with redesigning the summer textures (named 003c2Su*.bmp).How do I view these BMP files of ground textures? I opened one in paint shop pro, but it just displays as black. I read somewhere that these are DXT1 textures.And once I'm able to view such a file, would I use something like paint shop pro to edit it to my liking?Thanks in advance for any suggestions!-Jason

Here's the link to Martin Wright's website and the wonderful DXTBMP, you'll have to check through the site for all the necessary files.http://www.mnwright.btinternet.co.uk/
