.blp problems

[Paladon]

Hello everyone.
I am getting more and more reports (map) from Mac users (i use Windows) that some imported .blp files in maps cause the game to crash.
Apparently, this problem appears only for Mac users and only for some of the imported .blp textures or icons although each one is created using the same way.

I doubt that the imported file(s) are corrupted, especially since it only affcets Mac users.

Does anyone know this problem?
Does anyone has a solution (except buying another pc)?

Maybe this sound's stupid but Transfering the icon,image,skin into another format jpg or bmp.
i think some format's are only for mac doens't know about those format's.
i try to answer my cousin he got a mac maybe he got the solution

WC3 only axcepts .blp files, so that solution is flawed.
The .blp specification states that it uses standard jpeg compression or can use palleted 256 colour bitmapping with mipmaps included in the file.

I adivse checking if macs can use palleted .blp files and make sure that all the mipmap level data is correctly generated for the images.
