Ok, will convert them all to .TGA for the _locals and .DDS for the rest etc.

Biker, I'm getting this error now in SVN:

 

LoadTGA: (textures/darkmod/window/metal_diamond_pattern3_local.tga) : only type 2 (RGB), 3 (gray), and 10 (RGB) TGA images supported.

 

Since this is a killer error, it's probable that all the other new TGA images suffer the same problem.

[AluminumHaste]

Where are you getting that error grayman? I checked out okay, and TDM runs without errors.

[Bikerdude]

@Gman, how and where are you getting that error, as all I did was convert the .PNG's directly to .TGA using xnview.

[grayman]

I get the error during dmap.

 

The problem is probably that the file is empty, and dmap isn't catching that correctly, and is mistakenly reporting the TGA type error.

 

I remember that we'd seen this problem in the past (but related to a truly bad TGA type, not file size), so I thought this was one of those. When I looked at the file using xnview to see the type, I found that the file was 0 bytes.

[Bob Necro]

Not related to the current trouble (that I think and hope I have nothing to do with) but I forgot to include the "_local" in the iron square grate normal map, in case you didn't already catch that.

 

Three more normal maps and the isolated alphas for AluminiumHaste:

Aaaand that's pretty much all the textures I had any beef with. Now what? I guess I'll look into converting some other stuff that I think would look cool in the Dark Mod. Maybe check if some of the Dark Mod's older normal maps need a more hands on approach.

So just the three windows?

yes please.

Ok, reuploaded the file Gman had an issue with and the 3 new _local's submitted by Bob.

That fixed the problem, thanks.

[Bob Necro]

That's pretty spiffy! Shame about the transparent cames.

 

And now for some refurbished normal maps of yore. The folders and eventual subfolders are written in the info tab.

done #14318

[Bob Necro]

More stuff including a tweak of the barred window _local that plays a bit nicer with the lit versions of that window.

[Melan]

Now that's excellent work. Thank you!

Done, #14319

[Bob Necro]

What're you referring to, my conversions or the windows effects? Starting to get a bit cluttered over here. Any chance the thread could be split, o powers that be?

EDIT: Thank you verra much.

I'm guessing that the diamond patterns are from you as well Bob Necro? If so are there lit versions of them?

 

In particular i'm hoping for a lit version of the one below "diamond_pattern04"

 

[Bob Necro]

Nah, that's not one of mine. I can make a lit version anyway.

[Goldwell]

Nah, that's not one of mine. I can make a lit version anyway.

 

Oh thank you very much!

[Bikerdude]

Thats one of Melans, anf there are a bunch of window textures that could do with lit and moonlit versions.

 

I have had some success with this, and already worked on a bunch of your windows. But with regard to all the other like the one above, it sounds like you would be much better at it......

[Bob Necro]

Here's lit diamond windows, some fixed window normal maps and some more stuff from the EP that I like the look of, including C-Beam's brilliant update of the iconic Thief BLUSTN texture.

Beautiful work. I especially like the wood with the rivetted trim.
