Very low resolution/quality textures

Post by jeanl2 »

i'm working on a Comanche livery for a friend, however, the textures that are showing in the sim are of a very low quality compared to what i've drawn up in paint.net.

this is what it looks like on paint.net

this is what it looks like in the simulator

As you can see, the quality is way lower. I've tried saving as jpg, bmp, and png but they all look the same. i'm loading them into dxtbmp to convert them to DXT5. how can i make sure the quality stays the same inside the simulator?

That looks like you're including mipmaps.
You can disable them in DXTBmp with the checkbox on the right labelled "Include Mipmaps when saving".

Hey Marius
Disabling mipmaps greatly increased the quality of the textures! Thanks!
