Cirevam Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 All textures used when playing a level must be 256-color BMP files (or 8-bit, it's the same thing). The game will crash if you use anything else. The only exceptions I know of are menu backgrounds and interface images. Those can be 24-bit BMPs which is fairly standard. If you want an easy way to save your images as 256-color BMPs without causing your images to look like trash (which MSPaint will do), download Paint.NET and save them as 8-bit BMP images. They'll end up looking fine and they'll work in LRR. If you're just getting into modding, please read this topic so you can get an understanding of what you can and cannot do. 55445544 and Lair 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McJobless Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Can you give me a full list of what you did, including installing the game, creating and saving the textures and so on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
55445544 Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 used wad tool to extract the files replaced the textures with the sand biome textures which all match the requirements and then recompiled them into the wads and removed excess folders so that it could load normally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
