I figured you cab people might be interested in this. MakeAceWin can produce full alpha odd-sized (i.e. not 512x512, etc.) ace files. I don't know if people actually know about this, since everyone seems to use TGATool2. Just load a .tga (it may have to be 1024x1024, with the stuff you want in the top left?), DON'T choose 1-bit alpha, set your clamp values, and go. This is just a heads-up in that respect. And because I like a little dirt on my windshields and a little anti-aliasing on the edges. Scott
I've had screwy things happen when I used a rectangular input file. The easiest way to do it is make a square and put your image in the upper left. Just use the clamp values to crop off the excess.
Hi scott !Thanks for this tip, but i´m always working with TGATool2 with the updated makeace and had no problems anywhere. It converts 1024x1024 also.RD
