• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

HI
How do I convert lots of DXT1 files to BMP files using MS image tool without having to open every single file one at a time?

Thanks

Steve
 
Therefor you would need a batch-process.

I think this is possible with imagetool, because I saw this a while ago in a tool..... :scratchch But I don't know, how to set it up :(
 
Hi,

I do this with FS Texture Converter by Elrond Elvish. Just don't ask where to get it as I have no idea where I got it from. I could zip up the folder and e-mail you, but I don't remember if it didn't come with an installer that added dll's and ocx's to windows system folder.
 
I found it today too (trying Terrabuilder)...

This should work. It would also be possible with Imagetool, with "-batch" command and some more...

I you arent't able to download FSTexC I can send it to you by mail ;)
 
Thanks for all your help.

I did try to download the FS Texture Converter by Elrond Elvish but was unable too. I would really prefer to do it using the MS image tool or DXTBMP by Martin Wright since I already have both of these programs.

Thanks
Steve
 
simple to do with imagetool.

the only catch is you have to do it within a command window, like using dos in the old days.

Open the command window and type [path]imagetool [flags][input files]

so...if you want all files in c:\test to be converted to dxt1, you would type:
[path]imagetool -dxt1 c:\test\*.*

Make sense?

np, btw, one thing I forgot to mention is that if you type "imagetool -?", you'll get a listing of all the available flags.
