Followed all the instructions. Loaded ace file, sent to editor to edit, saved (not saved as) as instructed, reloaded into TGA Tool and tried to export as .ace but it will not. It only overwrites the .tga file.How does this work?

RE: TGA TOOL 2 not working.

I have never had a problem with TGATool2. It works for me everytime I use it.The steps are:
Load image (the default file type is .tga).
Send to Editor (Either the main image or the alpha channel)
Modify the image in the editor you specified.
Save the file - keep the default name created for the image.
Reload the edited file into TGA Tool.
Export the new image as an ace file, using the appropriate command type (bmp, trans, etc). You need to have told TGATool where your copy of the makeace file is before doing this, of course (one time only).The only time I have had an error is when the file is the wrong size for the makeace utility - this is not a TGATool error!-------SamSpade--------
