I used this techniqe, it took about 45 seconds. the wheel is from a custom harley Fat boy. Building an archive of TR. Tools: past, present, and future.

When I make a PRJ using a created TGA, I save load, and get an error message of not being able to fint a file with the name identical to that of my created TGA, but with an extention of PCX. Have you TRIED your own tools?! IP: Logged

Just trying to help Piega. and keep in mind, just because you may not have been able to get something to work, doesn't mean it can not be done! honestly not looking to start any fights here _Rob_ IP: Logged

piega Member Posts: 151 From:Netherlands Registered: Dec 2000 | posted 04-28-2001 04:09 PM Thank you guys, i didnt think saving it in bmp and then cut and past. I only have to figure out now how to make some textures transparent. IP: Logged
robbase Member Posts: 425 From:the other side of the puddle Registered: Mar 2001 | posted 04-28-2001 07:50 PM an easy way to get the transparency is to use the eye dropper tool (if you've got one in your paint program) to pull it off of another texture, it should be a pink / purple. and paint it into your tile. just make sure your opacity is set to 100% or it may through off the color a bit and will no longer be recognized as transparent.
