The program allows you to get an idea about what the bump map will look like in game.

They update it regularly, actually, so doing so would be a bad idea.

Convert does not matter. I convert files all the time.
Jpeg is extremely lossy, terrible for textures, therefore I have started a one-person boycott of it. |

Quote: --- Original message by: Enzo03 Yes the JPEG format by design is a lossy compression format where some visual quality is lost in the process. Its purpose is for quality photographic presentation at low file size and not for applications where specific bit depth regardless of file size is required. There is no reason to boycott the format as long as you apply it for the correct application. The correct application for JPEG is for photographic visual display on a website or web forum.Jpeg is extremely lossy, terrible for textures, therefore I have started a one-person boycott of it. |
