RE: Problem

If your using winrar than there is a way to fix that. 1. Click on the Winrar program and go to Options2. When the drop down menu shows up click on settings and click on the tab called Integration 3. Once you done that look at where it says Associate WinRAR with box, uncheck the box next to ACE and click ok after that and you will be ok after that.Do that and then come back and post what you did and tell any more problems that occurred during the process.Mike

EDIT: If you are trying to save a bmp as an ace, you don't open the ace in TGA, you open the bmp and then convert it to ace. From your pictures, I can't tell exactly in what order you are doing things. You should save the bmp in paint, then load it in TGATool2, then convert it to ace (note--since you are saving the file as a bmp rather than a tga, you will lose the alpha channel, which may screw up your repaint).
