Lightmap problem

#1 Post by drpilot900 »

Hi, I was wondering what's going wrong here. I saved the lightmap according to instructions (I think) but I get this in Model ConverterX. What am I missing here?

FAIB 737-400 FSX version:
Opened lightmap psd
Fixed windows as needed.
Saved as 32 bit tga file (after flattening image)
Used DXTBmp to convert to DXT5 no mips
Added to image folder with proper name.

Any help would be appreciated.

Yes. I will attache as a zip file. Thanks.

Edit:
I can't seem to attach the file. It is rejected by the uploader, it is too big. Please give me another option.

Thanks

Never mind Erez!!! I'm such an idiot! I forgot to place the "always on texture" for the 734 model. Sorry to bother. :oops:
I will release the repaint as soon as I complete some more beta testing.

Thanks again for the great works!!!
