Re: UT99 - BMP / PCX import in class error
I haven't applied v469 yet. Is this BMP importer vastly improved vs previous versions?
If so, I'll update asap.
Re: UT99 - BMP / PCX import in class error
My notes on the new v469 BMP importer:
Was meaning to write a Targa importer but got lazy.
EDIT: The PCX importer supports 4 bits in v469, and non-RLE versions as well.Higor wrote: Supported RGB color palette formats:
- 1 bpp RGB
- 2 bpp RGB
- 4 bpp RGB
- 4 bpp RGB + BI_RLE4 encoding
- 8 bpp RGB
- 8 bpp RGB + BI_RLE8 encoding
Supported RGB formats:
- 16 bpp RGB
- 24 bpp RGB
- 32 bpp RGB
Supported ARGB formats:
- 16 bpp ARGB with BI_BITFIELDS encoding
- 24 bpp ARGB with BI_BITFIELDS encoding
- 32 bpp ARGB with BI_BITFIELDS encoding
* The importer does not make use of the V5 color space information.

Re: UT99 - BMP / PCX import in class error
I gave up on using pcx, and was able to get bmp to work. Bmp doesn't seem to require anything special, except a texture dimensions that are powers of 2. I removed my previous setting of indexed color.
I'm not sure why the importer was giving errors about not being able to find the file, vs it being an improper format.
I hope that was fixed in v469.
