Mmmhm. Its a travesty, I know. Proves the point though that people have real life jobs, university, or other personal commitments besides working on thier hobbies
.Well, currently, I am making the code use only JPG and PNG, so that means BMP's are being recompressed into PNG, which of course is lossless. Which means, all debugger dumped images too will also be in RGBA PNG.
I have also started to add preliminary support for 8x texture resizing. Currently on my 256MB Radeon X1650 Pro, it works extremely well, though I didnt do any more testing besides on SM64 though.

hi mudlord,
did you post something HERE, related to the 4bit CI texture's bug in original Rice's plugin source as Gonetz posted on emuxhaven?
My comment:
i hope all the N64 community adopt the best solution found to solve the 4bit CI texture's bug
Gonetz's suggestion of "set full tmem emulation ON when dumping textures" seems to be a great idea, anyway...
Thanks!
Edit:
there is a big problem with the re dumping textures scenario...
Question: Is there an option to dump all the textures from the ROM, and not just the ones that are loaded?
Answer: No, not unless you hack the ROM. You must play through the game to dump the textures. There is no other way to do so unless you hack into the ROM. That's about it.

i've forgot you need that!!!!!
what to do???? :S

No.
All I posted was that CI BMPs are the only real needed format for BMP support, since PNG handles everything else.
Well, this bug should be stamped out imo. Though its a worry that complete texture packs have to be redone for this one bug.
That would help me out a lot if Gonetz can show me whats wrong, since he knows exactly where the errors are and what to fix. That way, since he's solution, which seems logical, can be added, if its the right thing to do, given the current situation.
Cool, in my docs I will note it down, if he wants to just this solution.

I ripped that logo ^_^
I was just about to re-post my question here, but noticed Cyberman already did. Thanks!

So has anyone started a 8x/16x texture pack yet.....?
I'd buy that for a dollar!

Sorry for the long absence..been in hospital mainly, due to a Series of Unfortunate Events(tm).
Unfortunately, I need to have more blood & pathological tests tomorrow than I had today, so I dunno how long I'll be away. And on top of that, I have a lot of university work to do also when I am feeling better (luckily, I made special arrangements with CSU, so that university work won't be affected by my absence due to medical reasons).
Anywayz....
Yep, a talented texture artist has already started with a 8x/16x pack. You'll need quite a beefy PC to run it though. :bouncy:

That totally blows chunks about the medical situation. :-(
With any luck there'll be a revolution in optical and/or quantum
computing sometime soon. That'd give medical research a huge leap
in computing power.
Whoops, getting off the subject a bit.
Totally awesome about the suped-up tex's.
Hopefully either my OC'ed GeForce Go 7900GS or 8600GTS can handle
it; I can't imagine how Zelda OOT with 16x textures would look on my
50in HDTV at 1920x1080............Yowza !!!!
