What do you use to open TGA files?

On that note, how do you access the battle editor?

For opening TGA's files, I use QuickTime .If you want to modificate it, you need a program such as GIMP.

Thnaks, but what is GIMP?

And what about DDS, and CAS?

[Ciaran]

GIMP is, from what I know, a freely available image-editing software, like Photoshop or Paintshop.
DDS is a graphical format, like jpeg, bmp and tga and it requires either a plugin for Photoshop or Paintshop or a converter tool like DXTbmp or the dds Converter 2 (should be at the twcenter download area).
CAS is the format of RTWs 3D model files and requires a special tool made by Vercingetorix to open it in 3DSMax (you can also open it in GMax, but you can´t export to .cas from Gmax, so it´s kind of useless).

So where can I get GIMP, and how can I edit 3-D Models (i.e. what out there does work). I've worked with COW and 3DM files b4, but never CAS.

An answer would be really nice!

Go to Google, a popular search engine, and type in GIMP.

Look in the Scriptorium for many interesting tutorials on how to edit cas files including the programme used to make them.

To find the Scriptorium click on the RTW Modification link in the tree at the top of the screen and then click on Scriptorium.
