Title: Re: VC texture resize : HOW?
Post by drepamig on Jun 2nd, 2009 at 2:29am
Hello,

You'd probably be better off asking this somewhere that gets more traffic, like Flightsim.com or Avsim.net. Someone probably has a better way than I can think of... anyway, I'd recommend getting imagetool (available in the Terrian SDK here: http://www.scenery.org/tutorials_fs2k4_SDK.htm).

I'd make a copy of all of the VC textures into a separate directory along with imagetool.exe. Create a batch file with something to the effect of:


Code (]imagetool -batch -32 -nomip *.bmp[/code):


That'll convert the DXT3 textures to BMPs, so they can be edited by any program. At that point, resize them however you want, then create another batch file with something like this:

[code]imagetool -batch -DXT3 -nomip *.bmp

Then overwrite the originals and you should be set.

That should at least get you started. If you want more info, you can run imagetool.exe /help and it'll give you a list of possible commands.

I haven't tried this myself other than to just see if it's works in general, so YMMV.

Hope that helps,
Ian
