    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.

    I have been somewhat using the same tutorial.
    Current question: 1) can you only use tga files as texture in the later copies of Milkshape? and do you have to flip them before you apply them?


    When I view things in MS they look good...is it not going to work when I try and apply them in FL?


    Thanks for any input

    FYI: Lost Prophets are currently recruiting, please talk with a representative online :D

    you can also use dds files and actually only the dds files are flipped
    other file formats work aswell in MS3d but FL does not read them


    i dont understand the last question
