bit targa format
3 messages in this thread
GreG,
I used the 8-bit Targa output format today and am having problems getting most
graphics programs to read it.
It is an image with a lot of blue. When I 24-bit Targa's and 256 color TIF's
they are fine.
But, when I generate 8-bit Targa's, almost everything see's the blue as red:
VPIC, CSHOW, Photo Shop Pro, DTA, GWS all see the Targa image as red and the
TIF image correctly as blue.
GDS won't even recognize the format.
Are all these programs reading the palette wrong?
The interesting thing is that DFV (same author as DTA) reads it correctly.
Any ideas?

Dunno Marco. Thats something you might want to point out to Mike. Odd though,
that DFV will read it properly, and DTA won't.

GreG,
A while ago, I sent Dave some FLC's that Imagine produced that DFV couldn't
handle well. The latest version of DFV (1.1) handles them fine. I think my
version of DTA is older (2.1.0), so maybe the changes haven't percolated down
to the DTA code. I also just discovered that I can't use an Imagine FLC as an
input to DTA without a crash.
Thanks for the response.
