bmp size question..

[Dawn Whitelighter]

guys.. is there a size limit when converting a BMP file to BLP?

every time i edit an extracted BMP format of a war3 texture (area is retained) and convert it back to BLP, it works in viewer, model editor, and MDLVS.

but every time i increase the area of the BMP file. it always shows an empty white pic in MDLVS.. (but the texture shows in viewer and editor)




thank you

i think MDLVIS do not really open texture files.

I'm not sure what you mean by "increase the area". Do you mean increase the dimensions? If so, make sure you are increasing them to powers of 2, as I don't think other dimensions will work for BLP's.

Ex:
64x64, 512x256, 1024x1024...
