Converting Graphics From Games
« on: June 04, 2005, 05:08:00 AM »

Hello,

i would like to use some of the ingame loading screens, which you see if the game loads a new map.
I searched the dvd and found, that they are TGA graphic files.
But here is my problem.

Some of them work, some not.
The Splash screen is working,
but the loading screens of the maps are not.

Does anybody know why ?
Is there some "special" plugin required ?

Thanks in advance.


p.s: if you would like to have some samples, please let me know and i will post a link to some of the files.

If you edit TGA files with a graphics program, compare the edited filesize to the original in a hex editor.  There is probably an additional "tag" or set of words added to the end of the original when you edit it.  Cut that off and then try it.
